HARRIS BURG TELEGRAPH
REOMITMNSTHE
ONE-PRICE SYSTEM
Even Though Materials Increase in
Cost, Quality and Price of Car
Remain the Same
In discussing the success of the Reo
Motor Car Company and the extraor
dinary demand for the Reo cars,
George G. McFarland said that one of
the principal factors that contribute
toward its success is the policy of the
company to gain the confidence of the
car owner and prospective buyer
through a business policy that is fair
to all in addition to a strict adher
ence to the rule that insists on quality
and perfection of workmanship in
every car that is sold. This business
policy includes the placing of a price
on the model after a careful consid
eration of every item of cost that goes
into the making of a car worthy of the
Reo guarantee. TITP price Is then
placed as low as is consistent with safe
business policy to insure a quality
product at a reasonable margin of
profit sufficient to maintain an organ
ization of a character essential to back
up the guarantee of a reliable car.
Mr. McFarland further stated that it
had never been the policy of the Reo
company to cut the size of the car,
wheelhase, width and length and depth
of seats, or to skimp the quality in
countless ways that it could he
skimped in order to reduce the price.
According to Mr. McFarland, who
is the largest distributor of Reos be
tween New York and Detroit, then,
expediency has never been a con
trolling factor in the Reo policy be
cause the product has always been so
good that the demand for Reos has
always exceeded the factory supply.
Discriminating buyers willingly pay
Reo prices for the Ren standards of
excellence and the backing of the Reo
guarantee, financially the second
strongest in the world. Rut even
though the price of material has gone
up since the present prices of the two
models were established, the selling
price remains the same. To-day there
are 60,000 of Reo the Fifths in use.
And the new Reo Six has proven itself
exceptionally popular since it was
placed on the market.
Hupmobile Dealers Increase

THE HEART.
How It Acta In Every Day Life.
The human heart, In a healthy man
weighs but eleven ounces. It beats
from loitig before birth until death, In
an average lifetime, about seven mil
lion times,,allowing seventy beats to
the minute. Every twenty-four hours
this slight organ performs labor
equivalent to lifting a ton of material l
eighty feet into the air. If the blood
becomes poor, and filled with poisons
from diseased kidneys, the heart Is not'
only starved, but poisoned as well. It
soon becomes exhausted and unable
to meet any extraordinary demand
which may be made upon it Supply
pure blood; get the kidneys to work
! Ing; tone up the feeble stomach! Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
purities the blood, relieves the kid
neys and tones up the alimentary
; canal. Give the Heart, the food It needs
and It will continue to work till the
natural end of life.
Oil City, Pa.—"A few years ago I
was so completely
worn out and ner
vous I could nob
keep up with my
ordinary house
hold duties. Both
my heart and
lungs ga v e me
great pain and I
got no rest at
night. I was urged
to try 'Golden
Medical Discovery' by my sister (now
living in Oklahoma) who had been so
much helped by Dr. Pierce's remedies
that she was insistent. I took four or
live bottles in all and was so much
better and stronger for it, and am only
too glad to commend Its use to others
in such a hopeless condition as I was
then."—MßS. GEORGE F. SPENSE, Cor.
Walnut and Third Sts., Oil City.
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets regulate
and invigorate stomach, liver, bowels.
