DINNER STORIES

An old farmer was talking to a l country doctor recently when a sec- | ond patient ca me up and asked for a. l cure for chills. Before the doctor had a chance to reply, the first man l spoke up:
 'I kin tell you a surer rem edy than Doc kin he said. You just take a twine string and make a knot in it for every time that you've had chill. 1 Then the next time you have one, you catch a frog and tie that thar string around him so it goes under one front leg and the other hind leg and turn him loose. You won't never more knot in the string than you have had chills, you'll have the hard est one you ever had in all your life"
 Fred Hetherington owns a barking dog. He also has in hi employ as house boy a young darky.
 Dog and boy don't seem to belong to the same lodge. Every time the boy gets within a. few feet of the Remington canine there is a barking barrage A peculiar thing about the dog, however, is that he wags his tail as he barks.
 Don't be afarid of the dog, Bud.' MT. Hetherington said to the boy. He won't bit you Don't you see that he wags his tail while he barks.''

Billy Whiiskers By Francis Trego Montgomery

 Billy enjoyed Dicks surprise very much, but began to prepare for the landing of the biplane. Dick was also too busy with his steering ap- paratus to give vent to further sur prise in words for the bip1ane was now gracefully gliding along the ground.
 The biplane had hardly stopped when Billy Ministers nimbly jumped off, and began foraging around for something to eat.
 Just after Dicks biplane touched the ground, he noticed that Toms mOnoplane gave a. 1urch. turned side ways and then seemed to shoot to earth as if falling, and he knew that he was in trouble, but what it was he could not tell.
 After Dicks biplane had landed, he looked to see where Harry was. At first he could not find him, but on looking higher up and away ahead, he spied his blue hydroplane going like the wind, straight ahead. Then he fell to work to see what was the matter with his craft. Luckily for him, it was only a trif1ing thing, which he could mend himself, and soon they were on their way again; but not be- fore Billy had had time to rest his back from the tiresonle position he had been in, and then, too, while Dick had been fixing the engine, Billy had time to eat a little grass and get a good drink of water from a small stream near by.
 Dick also was thirsty, but he would not stop to get a drink, as by so doing the boys would get that much farther ahead of him. Just as they were rising from the field, farmers and dogs began to come, as if by magic. from all directions, having seen the biplane, come down. They had hurried to see it. but were too late, as by the time they got there. Dick was a again high over their heads, going very fast to make up for lost time. In fact, he soon went to fast that it almost took Billys breath away, and the draft is made as it shot the air made BiIly's whiskers blow so hard he was afraid they would blow off.

The one handicap he might have in seeking a career in the big leagues is his frail build. Whether or not he could stand the daily strain isn't known, of course. He has shown an unlimited amount of gameness, how- ever, which might carry him through despite the handicap of size.

When person decides to buy an au-
tomobile they have in many cases de-
termined in what class they will pur-
chase but what car in that class is alto
gether another matter. If they are
looking for car of universal value
they do not have far to look for when
they come to the Lexington they are
at once satisfied. This sounds like
rather broad statement but it is true
nevertheless for if one is contemplate
ing the purchase of car they always
tell their friends and among their
friends is always Lexington booster,
who never fails to tell the many good
points of the Lexington.
This wonderful car has won its repu-
tation by its actual tests on the road,
under all kinds of road conditions and
this is where the real test of a car
comes, testing its ability to stand up
under all kinds of treatment. A per-
son may say, 81 don't expe 1t to give
my car any hard USE" that all may be
true, but if a car will stand up under
the hardest kind of use possible to give
it, it will do great deal better under
ordinary conditions.

The real test for an automobile comes
in manner in which it actually stands

the wonderful value offered at such u
reasonable price. OF course, we know
that this car enjoys the reputation of

nous line of cars is far superior to any
