A NEW HEALTH CURE

A new health cure is on the mar.

OF this cure IN the United States. A
leading automobile official is authori.

careful investigation, il has been
| found that the automobile is the cause
for an increased lease on life.
In 1908, according to this official
| the average life span in the United
states was only 1854 years It has
Jumped to 1856 years, I'm this con.
nection IL Is interesting 10 note that
In 1908 there were only 10.sSo auto
mobiles In the United States. In 1918
when motor cars had increased ia
46l 500, the life span of the average
person had advanced to 4i.o1 years
In the last ten years the motor car
population has Jumped 10 1s,oo2.i27
and the national life emergency has
risen 1855 years" This would seem
TO indicate that the automobile Is
actually making life longer and hap
pier, in automobile reasoning.
