Why Kelly-Springfield Tires
cost more to buy but less to own
The stamp of quality is as obvious on Kelly-Spring
field Tires as it is on any other hand-made article
of genuine worth. It is as inimitable, as unmistak
able as the impress of good breeding on a man
or woman. But
Kelly-Springfield
Tires are not made so carefully merely to give them
an air of distinction; it is mileage that is built into
them so slowly and painstakingly by hand. And
judged by the acid test of road mileage, Kelly-
Springfield Tires are as good as they look. They
are built up to a standard —not down to a price-list.
©Hereafter the basis
of adjustment will be:
In Ford sizes, plain tread, 6,000 miles; Kant Slip
7,500 miles. All other sizes, plain tread. 5.000 miles;
Kant Slip tread 6,000 miles. The word "adjust" is »
merely figurative, because in 1914 the total adjust
ment in Kelly-Springfield Tires for* the whole
United States was less than 1%. You get this
unequalled service in uninterrupted mileage not
Mad* l« Make Good / "
Before buying some other tire at a lower price
analyze the basis of adjustment offered by the other
maker —see what you really do get for less money.

killing three women, George Joseph
•Smith, in the Bow street court yester

in baths" case.

murder hare been' preferred.

and that the prisoner, when arrested,

Avoid Coyghs
and Colds
Grip and Pneumonia Usually Follow if
Neglected
The chief danger of "grip" and
"colds' lies not in their own direct ef
fects, but in the fart that they weaken
the body and open the way for the en
trance of the organisms of other dis
eases. It is'therefore advisable to take
the proper precautions with a cold at
the start when it can be conquered with
comparatively little trouble. The ounce
of prevention - is worth many pounds of
CUM in the case of colds and the best
prevention is to keep the body in good
[ihvsical condition.
"Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey helps
keep the body in good general health
because it is a predigested liquid food
which requires no labor of the digestive
organs, and is ready to enter the blood
wheta it enters the stomach, enriching
and increasing the circulation. It-
the appetite, aids digestion of
the ordinary foods, helps repair wasted
tissues of the body, quiets and strength
ens the nerveß of the body and brain,
makes eatfug a pleasure and adds to
your power of endurance. People who
"Get Duffy's and keep well" are sel
dotn troubled with colds— it is a medi
cine for all mankind.
