Dodge Brothers sell directly
through their dealers to the
purchaser. There are no sec
tional distributing agencies to
increase the cost of distribution
and the cost of the car.
Dodge Brothers have never
given so-called ''free service"
The car is sold at a fair and
honest price. Nothing is added
by the manufactures to this
original purchase price to pay
for service that the owner may
never need.
Dodge Brothers Dealers were
pioneers in adopting the flat
rate service system. BY this
system, the owner knows in
advance what any service job
will cost There are no unpleas-
ant surprises in his bills.
The sturdiness and long life of
Dodge Brothers Motor Car is
reflected in it's resale value.
Comparatively few Dodge
Brothers Motor Cars are
advertised in the resale columns
of the newspapers. The
values they bring testify un-
answerably to their goodness
and the public's belief in their
goodness.
And now Dodge Brothers
announce a new and attrac-
tive Credit Purchase Plan, in
operation throughout the
United States. This plan per-
mits a low first payment, with
acknowledgements extended
over a long period of time at a
minimum credit charge. So
favorable to the purchaser is this
arrangement that practically
anyone can now own a Dodge
Brothers motor car without
financial inconvenience.

Dodge Brothers, during the
past eleven years, have built
and sold more than one million
four hundred thousand motor
cars-and more than 9O% of
these cars are still in service.
This record requires no COM
ment. 1t stands impressively
alone in motor car history.
1t has never been Dodge Bro
thers policy to build yearly
models. When an improve
ment that is really an I'M
provenent, is discovered, it is
made at once. Their slogan,
"Constantly Improved But No
Yearly Models is familiar the
world over.
Dodge Brothers build one chas-
SIS and only one. This policy
materially lowers manufacture
ing cost. 1t also enables Dodge
Brothers engineers to concen-
trate their entire time and
thought on the betterment of
this one type.
Dodge Brothers have never
had an ''off year" or an "off
car" This is because they have
never used the public as a test
ing ground for new models or
lowered the quality oftheir prod
uctin the slightestdegree. Every
change has been an improve
ment on the original design.
Dodge Brothers pioneered in
building the first all-steelopen
car and the first all-steel closed
car. These epochal develop
ments have saved Dodge
Brothers owners many millions
of dollars by materially prolong-
ing motor car life and by effect
ing marked economies in man
ufacture. This construction has
also reduced incalculably the
danger from accident and fire.

BOY SHOT WHILE
SQUIRREL HUNTING
Elton Matthews, Of Temperance.
vile, Accidently Shot By Chum,
Milton Cutler, Monday

Elton Matthew'S, son of Frank Mat
thews, Of Tmperanceville, Va, was &C.
cidently shot by his chum, Milton Gut
ler, Monday afternoon.
The two boys, who are both Seniors
of Temperanceville High School, de-
cided, after their school day was over
to go out squirreling. Everything
went we'll until Milton Cutler caught
the trigger of his shot gun into plest
on the side of his coat, causing the
gun to go off and the load was emptied
into the leg of the other boy.
Realizing the danger of his chums
bleeding to death, he took his neck
tie and tied around Matthews leg to
stop the profuse bleeding.
Being near the County road, he
managed to get the wounded boy out
to the road and in few minutes as
luck would have it, the wounded boys
father came by driving truck. See
in the condition of his son, he took
him in the truck and rushed him to the
office of DR.. R. R. Nevitte, of Temper
anceville who rendered Immediate
medical aid
The load entered the front of the
leg and passed through to the back
inflicting a terrible flesh wound.
The Doctor does not consider his
condition serious unless complications
set in, and at present the boy is rest
ing a scomfortably as may be eX-
,pected.

PITTSBURC COPS WORLDS
SERIES BASE BALL FLAG
Comes From Behind In Thursday.
Game To Take Third Straight
Win From Washington

Pittsburgh came gallantly from be-
hind on Thursday last and won the,
Worlds honors in base ball by defeat
ing Washington by the score of 8 to
z, after winning the two previous
ones, making it three in a row.
Walter Johnson was on the mound
for Washington in the last game, hav-
ing won two before that, ,and being
the last hope of the Senator'S. 1t was
too much to expect of the veteran TO
win three, although the score was tied
at all in the eighth. Pittsburgh by
good hitting piled up four runs in that
fatal session and earned the right to
be called Worlds champions.
Possibly, the outstanding features
of the series were the splendid work
of johnson in the two games he won,
and the woful exhibition of base ball
by Peckinpaugh, who made no fewer
than eight errors, a record for post
season contest between the winners
IN the two big leagues.
These errors contributed more thar
any one thing to downfall of Wash
ington, and came from a source least
expected. If there was any one who
was looked upon as steadier in these
games it was Peck, and his collapse
probably brought to no one more than
to himself, deal of regret.
1t is all over, however, and all eyes
now will be looking a twelve-month
ahead, and calculating who will take
the measure of Pittsburgh. This team
is bunch of youngsters, and will, c,
should, improve over their work this
year.

STOCKTON WOMAN DIES
AT BREAKFAST TABLE
Mrs. David H. Taylor Victim OF
Heart Trouble-Active Worker
In M. E. Church.

Stockton was shocked on Thursday
morning of last week to hear of the
death of Mrs. David H. Taylor. Mrs.
| Taylor was at the breakfast table, and
died in few minutes at 6.15 o'clock.
! Mrs. Taylor was in her usual health
and had gotten breakfast early for
her husband to get to his work, and

age last January. She was member
of the M. +. Church and has led Il
faithful and conscientious Christian
life. She will be missed in home and
by her many friends and was a de-
voted wife and a loving and faithful
mother to her two children who will
mourn her loss. The shock of losing
her so suddenly when they believed
she was we'll and happy, makes it
doubly hard.
Her daughter had just left her on
Tuesday, expecting to see her again
soon She leaves husband and son,
Valiant Taylor, of Philadelphia, and
Mrs. John R. Woods, of Wooster,
Mass, and one grandson, Milton, of
Philadelphia.

ed Sunday afternoon at the home at 2
o'clock by the Rev. Mr.. Bischoff, of

Mason, and Clarence Burbage, all in
innate neighbors, and E. H. Taylor.

is THE STATE VETERINARIAN
'TS" OR is HE "AlN'T?'

Governor Hunt has called on At
tornev General j. w Murphy for an
opinion as to what happens when the
livestock sanitary board declares va
cant the office of state veterinarian
Is the veterinarian fired forthwith, OF
must the board put up with his serv-
ices willy or nilly until his successor
has been appointed, the governor
wants to know.
This was the development in the
removal or attempted removal OF Dr.
s. e. Douglas, state veterinarian. The
action Of the board in declaring val
cant the office, was made known to
the chief executive in a copy Of min
utes of this weeks meeting. This
shows that motion was put by Mem
aer /. l.. Neal and seconded by Mem
Der P. T. Hurley declaring the office
vacant and that the motion was un-
animously adopted. B. j. Mckinley,
chairman of the board presided and
| C. T. Francis, secretary, was also
present.
Until the attorney general decides
on the point at issue there is no way
of telling whether DR.. S. E. Douglas
is state veterinarian or not. Ii 1t is
decided that the sanitary board has
any jurisdiction in the matter of CIV
| ing Dr. Douglas his walking papers
then it might be interpreted that the
board should appoint his successor
But DR.. Douglas was appointed by
Governor Hunt, and there is nothing
in the law to compel the governor to
appoint his successor until ne gets
good and ready.
These are the popular angles of the
situation that are being discussed in
capitol circles, while the attorney
generals office delves into the ques-
! ton from strictly legal standpoint.

SALTED Mine OR A
SALTED STORY!

Both Phoenix newspapers recently
carried articles in regard to the al
legged Sailing" of mine in Yavapai
county. The man who claims he
bought a 'fixed mine" is said to have
"told the world about it" in the capi-
tai city. Just why he sealed his lips
here, and why he was not specific, but
was vague and insinuating, the news
papers did not state.
Newspapers want the truth, and the
Phoenix papers are not unlike others
in this respect, but IN this instance
did not give sufficient thought be-
fore giving publicity to an allegation.
The accusation not only was a blow
at the development of mining in this
county, but, since the article was sent
to publications elsewhere, it bore the
marks Of aiming to give black eye
to the whole state. Investors will
hesitate to place their money in a
section where they think fraud is
practiced,%and in the east, Arizona is
regarded as but section.
1t would be well to have this report
run to earth and to determine what
is back of it. If some dishonest per-
son did salt a hole in the ground,
Yavapai county should know it; the
entire state should know it. No one
/ in Prescott appears to have any
knowledge of the matter, and if the
! informant of the Phoenix papers was
talking through his hat" that fact
too, should be put under blazing
spotlight. The charge is very grave
one, and it ought to be probed fully,
and as soon as possible.
Yavapai has good name as min
| ing county, and its people are as
honest as any in the land. This good
name should not be marred, either by
some evil individuals act, or through
