I "Car of the American Family"
A car of unusual grace and beauty with every feature that makes for driv
ing comfort. The new Hupmobile is a large, roomy, powerful car that cannot
help but appeal to the most discriminating taste. Riding comfort has been one I
of the chief aims of Hupmobile engineers in designing the new car. The springs
are unusually long and built of the highest grade spring steel, which makes for
exceptional resiliency and gives the greatest riding ease underall road conditions. I

TUESDAY EVENING,
i not been able to bear-the expense
| of two models, an enclosed car for
I winter and then open car for the sum
| iner months. For this reason we have
hit upon the happy idea of building
removable tops for both the tour
ling and roadster model Hupmobiles.
"At a slight additional cost the tour
ing car can be converted into an en
closed Sedan car and the roadster can
be made into a luxurious coupe.
"Now Hupmobile owners have the
ad\antage of owning two cars at the
price of one and we know this is go
ing to take the eye of the buying pub
lic.
"The most remarkable feature of
these new tops is thf fact that the
owner can apply same with the assist
ance of another person—no tools are
needed but a screw driver and a
monkey wrench.
The equipment of the enclosed cars
is very complete, nor does the owner
sacrifice any of the luxuriousness
found in the most expensive types of
motor cars. There is a dome light:
the windows are adjustable for ven
tilation and are made out of high
quality couch glass; door handles have
been added and the interior is covered
with a fawn colored head lining, which
adds a distinctive atmosphere of high
quality to the csr.
"The material and workmanship of
the new Sedan and Coupe Hupmobile
is worth especial attention. The
frame Is made of wood and allumlnum
rigidly fastened with forged supports
to insure freedom from rattling it is
perfectly watertight and draftproof
and there is no chance for wind wuter
or sun to sieve through. The' excel
lent finish of the new tops gives a
conformity of appearance between the
body lines and top proper that is
found only in high-grade coach work."
King Eight to Go in
500-Mile Speedway Race
An eight-cylinder racing car, the
first of its kind, will be entered in the
next Indianapolis 500-mile race May
29. if the plans of Arthur Klein
America's youngest registered driver'
through as scheduled. The car is
a King, of 270 cubic Inches piston dis
placement. and only 1750 pounds
weight. Its estimated speed is over
110 miles an hour. A similar car the
12-cylinder Sunbeam of Jean Chas
sagne, holds the world's record of
107.95 miles an hour, so that with an
experienced driver like Klein, who
scored second and third in the Ta
coma Potlate.h and Mantamarathon
contests, respectively, the King may
be expected to make an excellent
showing.

The look of unconcern on the
faces of the occupants of this Max

Empire Man Sees Big
Gain For Cheap Car
"Cars listing: at under SI,OOO are
due for a greater popularity this sea
son than ever before," declares H. A.
Fishburn, of the Penbrook Garage,
local agent for the Empire cars In this
territory. "Proof of this is being of
fered every day by the increasing de
mand for cars of this type and the in
terest they are attracting at the auto
mobile shows. With this evidence of
ever growing demand the coming of
the 'eight' is not viewed with dismay
by the manufacturers of cars of this
class.
"Tnere is no doubt that a great
proportion of the prospective purchas
ers of automobiles have definitely set
their minds on a price in the neigh
borhood of SI,OOO. realizing the fact
that with the great advance made in
construction during recent years it is
now possible to purchase at this price
an automobile which will meet their
every demand, not only in point of
service but in attractive appearance
and complete equipment. But a few
seasons ago virtually all of the con
venience features now furnished on
such a car were luxuries to be bought
as extras after the purchase of the car,
or to be supplied only with the higher
priced machines.
"There are many reasons for the
continued and growing popularity of
the SI,OOO car, of which our product
may be taken as typical. In the flrst
place it makes its appeal most strongly
to car buyers of the middle and far
west, the territory which has absorbed
by far the greater proportion of the
American cars built. Simplicity of
such cars appeals to the buyers in
these sections, who want an automo
bile that is always ready with a inilli-'
mum amount of attention. They re
quire a car of sufficient power to carry
them over some of the worst roads
to be encountered, the sturdiness to
stand up under the strain and the
pleasing appearance and detail finish
that will make them lit carriers on j
the boulevards. Moreover, in such l
cars is a lightness of weight that j
tends toward economical upkeep, and |
with this a roominess that gives ample i
carrying capacity without crowding.
Especial attention has been paid to
road ability. The impression that a
light car would not hold the road has
been pro\ed wrong by lower cars
evenly balanced. Electric starting and
lighting has been perfected so far that
even this part of our car is covered
by an ironclad year's guaranty."
Freight Too Slow For
Detroiter Eight Demand
So imperative are the demands for
demonstrators from Detroiter distribu
tors and dealers, that the Briggs-De
troiter company is shipping many of
ithe new eight cylinder models by ex-
I press, according to Claude S. Briggs,
of the Briggs-Detroiter company.
"We have shipping orders for
I'eights' from practically every De
troiter dealer," says Mr. Briggs, "and
we are getting i'ars out in the terri
tory just as rapidly as possible. It is
our intention to take care of demon
strator orders iirst and the orders now
on hand for both 'fours' and 'eights'
insure the factory being kept running
at its maximum capacity for months
to come. At a conservative estimate
we shall this season double our 1914
business and our manufacturing faci
lities have been increased accordingly
to take care of the business.
"Enthusiasm for eight cylinder cars
is one of the most surprising condi
tions we have ever encountered, in
view that so few of this type are in
general use. The wide publicity given
the eight cylinder car has had its ef
fect.
"There is every reason to bolieve
that the great demand for 'eights' this
season will result in an increased out
put of this type next year. A number
of manufactures of medium and low
priced 'fours' and 'sixes' who have
been waiting to see how the public
would receive the 'eight' are thor
oughly convinced now that the public
Is eager for it and accordingly are
getting ready to announce 'eights'
just as soon as their sales policy will
permit.
"By anticipating the big demand for
a moderate priced 'eight,' and being
the first company to be able to market
this type of car in quantities, the
Briggs-Detroiter company has been
able to add to its organization some
of the largest and oldest established
distributors In the country."

other motorwise folk who had h.aid
rumors of the "unveiling" at New

mers consulting engineer's friends
have called it.
The new motor is the result of years
of engineering research for the ideal
motor to put into a high grade light
car. It is, experts say, the perfected
type of the valve in the head motor,
retaining all the well recognized ad
vantages of this style of construction,
with the addition of remarkable si
lence and perfect lubrication.
European engineers were Just com
ing to this type of construction when
the war broke out, and it is declared
likely that the bringing out of this
type of motor in America at this par
ticular time will put American auto
mobile designing at least a year ahead
of foreign builders.

Scranton, Pa., March 16.—Alderman
Jacob Smith announced to-day that
he had issued warrants for the arrest,
of 20,000 taxables of the Scranton
school district whose 1914 taxes are
unpaid. To the amount of each tax
is added $1.12 costs. The alderman
to-day had a number of constables
serving the warrants and in some in

showed receipts for the taxes in

The Baby's Welfare
a Mother's Oread
A fear clutches at the heart of the
mother that her own little one may
not live long. She dreads its second
summer, or that It may never wake
from its sound sleep. All mankind
loves a mother—loves to see a mother
love her child. A baby and its mother
are insured against ill-health if the
mother takes Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, a tonic for women that.
Dr. H. V. Pierce invented nearly a half
century ago for women's ills. This is a
vegetable tonic, made only of the chlci
nal roots with glycerine, which puts
the female system into perfect, healthy
action. Before baby's coming it is
just the tonic that puts the womanly
system into a proper condition to make
the birth painless and to insure a
healthy child.
Many mothers of families in the
United States have reason to be grate
ful to the person who recommended
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Jt
is put up for the single purpose of cur
ing disease peculiar to women. It has
sold more largely on this continent
than any other medicine for women.
Another point in its favor: it is a tem
perance remedy and does not contain
a single drop of alcohol nor of any
narcotic.
Young mothers who preserve the
charms of face and figure in spite of
an increasing family and the care of
growing children are always to be en
vied. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip
tion gives the strength and health up
on which happy motherhood depends.
It practically does away with the pains
of maternity. It enables the mother
to nourisli the Infant life depending on
lier, and enjoy the hourly happiness
of watching the development of a per
fectly healthy child.
