The General Demand of thn Well-InLormctl of tlio World has always Iwn fer a simple, jiloasant and efficient liquid laxative reniMly of known value; a laxative which physicians could Banction for family use because its component parts are known to them to be wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, acceptable to the system and gentle, yet prompt, in action.

The final of the run will be completed Monday and Tuesday to Atlantic City. The run not only demonstrated that touring with an electric is not only a possibility hut also establishes a record for electric, machines, this being Ihe longest trip ever made. Mobile Notes. If vou need exercise, it's not noc cssary to buy an auto just dodge. Motoring improves the lungs.

You have to shout to make the chauffeur hear. Many a six-cylinder car is the substance of things owed, the odor of things not seen. If odor, not speed, were the standard unit, manv a small car would be rated at least 100 HP. It's hard to rise above trouble, when the trouble's a balky car. Usually you have to crawl under it.

A motor car is something like a wife: yon must own one to know whether or not you can manage one. When a motor boat breaks down one wishes for a motor car unless he's a mighty good swimmer. The acme of politeness, when your host's car breaks down, is to persuado him you'd rather walk anyhow. There are degrees of hard luck, but the limit is to be run over by an auto while dodging sand ballast from an airship. It's said that running a car brings wrinkles to one's face," but dodging accomplishes exactly the same result.

The California man, named Loggia, who bought his first, auto the other day, declares he already knows what's in a name. The automobile throws new light upon the old phrase: "The quick and the dead." The quick are the ones 'smart enough to dodge. From the August L'ohemian.

AUTOISTS CALLED IN DES MOINES A bunch of distinguished citizens of Dos Mones have been hailed into court and their hearing is set for Monday afternoon, on the charge of violating file following sections of the autcimobile laws of Iowa: Sec. 1571 Every motor vehicle shall also at all times have the num her assigned to it by the secretary of state displayed on the back of such motor vehicle in such a manner as to be plainly visible.

Sec. 127 Such vehicles shall be so constructed as in exhibit during the period between one hour after sunset and one hour before sunrise, one or more lamps showing white light visible within a reasonable distance in the direction 'toward which the vehicle is proceeding, and also it red light visible in the reverse direction.

Frankel. C. R. Proutv. 1).

M. Goldman, ,1. W. Armstrong, Frank John. Dan Miles and It.

S. Snyder tire charged with operating their machines without lights. The matter hinges somewhat on whether the law contemplates that the rear lights shall be visible for a "reasonable distance." as is required of tin- front lights. The prosecution claims that the red lenses in the front i lights are not in fact visible directly behind the machines because they are i shut off by the increased width of the machines in the back, and also by the running gear and guards.

This story may not be true, the lown town motor car dealer on whom 1 is laid denies it but a certain poignancy still remains. The dealer go! out of his ear at Kighth and Main streets Friday morning to buy a toy motor car from a hawker who has a stand under the viaduct. "I'll take that car," said the dealer, pointing to a toy which was spinning around on the table. The hawker reached in his sack and drew out another. "That one ain't for sale," he said, grinning.

"It's my demonstratn' car." It is related that after that the hawker and the motor car dealer cordially shook hands but no sale was i A notable feature, call It of pleasure or liuslneKs as you will, In Davenport this Keason Ik the large number of motor cycles that are to lie seen on the streets.
