EFFECTO FINISH
 RECOMMENDED
Adds To Value And Good Looks Of All Motor
 Cars

There's many a car that is great under the hood, but you couldn't tell | 1t by her looks according to J. W. Williamson of Birmingham Paint and | Glass company, who recommends coat of "Effecto" automobile finish to owners of motor cars in such ! condition.
 A handsome finish adds much more to the value of an automobile than the small cost a supply of Effecto finish and adds substantially to the pride of ownership that every motor ists feels. It also adds to the life of a car and to it's resale value If 1t is decided to sell it.
 It Is said that Effecto is easily applied and gives a rich lustrous and permanent finish to a car. Owners whose cars are beginning to look "passe" and kind of "rund" down at the heels are invited to consult MT. Williamson, who will be glad to give his expert advise in the matter of new coat of Effecto finish. 1I9-inch chassis with 50 horse power, 312 x5inCh motor; two-passenger roadster; five-passenger touring car, five passenger coupe and fiVe-pas- senger sedan.

ORIGINAL CRAWFORD PEACH

Ash barrels and garbage cans may contain treasures. Many years ago a New York man named Crawford who was visiting the national capi- tai, happened to notice an extra large peach stone in a garbage can that was standing on the curb, and he wrapped it in a piece of paper and carried it back home with him. He planted it and the seeding that came from that stone was the source of all the excellent Crawford peach es in the world.-Mlwaukee Journal.
