AUTO DEALERSIN IN
 CITY DOING WELL
Some Are Unable to Guarantee
 Definite Delivery

The past spring and present sum- mer has been a banner season for automobile salesmen in both used and new cars. and also for firms doing business In automobile accessories.
 The signs of business revival all over the country have had big part in stimulating the automobile trade and from early spring to the present time practically every automobile dealer in the city has been flooded with requests for demonstration, and, what is more to the point, from q business point of view. has had hit reasonable share of sales. Not only are the cheaper priced cars greatly in demand, but also there is big de- mand for high priced cars. The used car market Is also good and dealers and second hand men who handle these machines report brisk busl- ness'' -e H's-.s r
 Various agencies have entered into the causes for the boom in automo- bile sales, but probably none more than the genuine desire of the indi- vidual to have car for the pleasure of himself and family. Where there's . will there's way, and to this end the dealers themselves are co-operat' ing with the public. So far ahead of production Is the demand for auto- mobiles that. in many cases, dealers are unable to positively guarantee car delivery at a specific date.
 The tire market Is exceptionally good and as the prices of all high grade tires are lower than they have been for years, this is an added in- ducement for car sales.
 A canvass of the various automo- bile agencies in this city, including all kinds of machines from the lowest to the most high priced, shows busi- ness to be excellent. Every dealer gets his share of the trade and as good IS has been business thus far they are unanimous in predicting that the. later summer months and fall months will see not only continued brisk business. but also an increase.
 While a majority of the cars that are being sold are of the touring or rrnabout type, there is marked ln- crease in the number of sedans and coupes that are being sold for all weather usage. The touring car, with detachable winter top, IS also greatly in demand, dealers say.

1 tom followed Is the reverse. Cities now do their construction work when 1t is easy to get money, which Is when labor Is fully employed and when everyone else Is building, This Is all wrong. When the period of unem- , ployment comes 1t is very difficult to borrow money for construction work because money Is then tight and the citizens feel poor. Hence, under the present system It Is impossible to do much to relieve unemployment when It comes, If an ice man attempted to follow the Aams system in his business as the city officials follow, he would wait until summer to cut his ice.
 Would Benefit Many
 For investors this means that tax exempt securities and town bonds should now be purchased even though they have already gone up some In price. Those who contemplate buy ing should buy at once before they 30 up still higher. When buying tax exempt issues seek the long term ones as these will show the greatest profit. All of this should be specially en. couraging to the contractors and builders, as 1t means that a great deal of public work will be done during the next few years. City water plants will be extended, more sewers will be constructed, new public buildings will be erected, and the good road move ment will continue to grow. This should be welcome information" con- cluded the statistician, to those who handle contractors supplies and build ing materials, and especially all such materials as are used by cities and towns"
 General business is 13 per cent be- low normal. This Is an improvement of per cent over last week and is 10 per cent above the activity of the same week a year ago. Smaller fail. ures are helping matters considerably and further improvement should be reflected during the next few weeks

THE DURANT
 A GOOD CAR

"When you talk about the million and a half of new cars that will be made and sold this year, 1t seems as though you were talking about quite a large affair."" says A. G. HaWker, To- cal ,Durant agent
 But" continued MT. Hawker, stop a moment and think of the ten mil lions who are already steering thelr touring cars, roadsters, sedans and coupes around the highways. The car owner is and will continue to be the big customer for everybody in the automobile business.
 He funs for cover to the dealer who sold. him his car, for he knows that nobody else. has the same vital interest, in the performance of the car he drives.
 This is bringing new and better automobile dealer into the world. To- day the good dealer not only sells satisfactory performance when he sells a car, but he backs this assurance by the necessary investment in shop equipment stocks of parts, accessor- les. and other things that his car cus- toner may need later.

Diseases 100 Years Ago

OF course, diseases were prevalent
A century ago, and are still more pre-
Yalent in this era OF enlightenment
But the causes are now rightly stud
led and diagnosed, and are treated IN
quite a different manner. Some OF the
ingredients in the medicine" of a
century ago. especially among the
savages. were toad and snake skins
fdried and pOwderedJ, snals, dog IIv-
er, monkey hair and fish scales. Hot
Goals were showered upon wounds.
When "A native had toJthache, the pa
tient had to have the tooth hammered
in so far that the evil spirit was kill
ed, or hole bored into the tooth to
let out the evil spirit Sometimes the
skin of a sick person was punctured
to let the sickness out Sometimes
melted wax or melted lard was pour
ed into a wound to heal il. In some
parts of Africa the patient is beaten,
burned. rolled over and over on the
ground by the native doctor, and Of
ten oil is poured on the affected part
in order to drive out the evil that is
causing the disease. One native who
was afflicted with toothache, was told
by the native doctor that there was a
live snake in his ear, jumped with JOY
when an American doctor extracted
the tooth and the snake in the ear
was gone.
