SPECTACULAR MCE
AGAINST DEATH
A Rich Farmer, With Broken erk.
Was sfd hj Heroic Acrten.
Gothenburg, Neb. Aiir. 7. Edward
Oman, a farmer living near Arnold, 40
mile north of here, a few days ago
fell from his wagon, the wheels pass
ing over his neck and shoulders. Ap
parently the nerk was broken; part of
the body was paralyzed; the head was
twisted and immovable and the jaw
set; life was despaired of. Members
of the family wired to Dr. B. J. Palmer,
president of the Palmer School of Chi
ropractic of Davenport, and to Dr. Lee
w Edwards of Omaha, chiropractic
physicians, who came on the Overland
limited, which was specially ordered
to stop here. The doctors then jumped
into a high-powered automobile and
sped out to Arnold and took immedi
ate charge of Mr. Oman. When the
chiropractors left Arnold the patient
was much relieved, turning his head
from side to side freely, the blood had
begun to circulate and natural feel
ing was returning to arms and body.
The chiropractors told Mr. Oman that
his neck was not broken, but that two
of the vertebrae were sttblaxated. They
expressed the opinion that Mr. Oman
would recover.

Omaha, Aug. 7. A luncheon was ten
dered today to Dr. B. J. Palmer ot
Davenport, leader of the Chiropractic
profession, by the Omaha Association

of Dr. Palmer's mission to Arnold,
where he was called by telegraph in
an emergency case. With the aid of
Pnion Pacific officials, who stopped

veritable race against death. The
luncheon was attended by the leading
chiropractors and their wives. A busi
ness session followed, in which plans
were perfected for the special train
to the national convention of the 1'ni
versal Chiropractors' Association, to

COLORED NOTES
Bv T. It. I Barclay
Agitation Wins
The tremendous protest that went
to Washington against the retire
ment of Lieut. Col. Young has again
demonstrated what the race can do
by united action. The insistent de
mand that Col. Young's physical in
capacity for active service be fully
established before he be retired. The
physician's finding that his blood
pressure was too high was taken
with a liberal allowance of salt by
the race throughout the country. His
forced retirement would have arous
ed resentment In the light of events
which reasonable and thoughtful
men can not ignore. It wduld have
been regarded as a clever ruse to
rob us of representation in the high
er ranks of the army. Fortunately.
However, for the present, to quote
the suggestive words of Secretary
Baker, Cel. Young is not retired.
He l:m been restored to active duty
and promoted to Colonel from June
22. This is a victory won through
alcn and united action. It is now
Col. Voting. We Indulge the hope

Wo mention the price, particularly because on August tenth the prices on all models of the
Lexington Six will advance Sixty Dollars. The price of materials has advanced so much that
this is necessary for the builders of this car will never reduce the quajity. The price of the
Lexington Six is a price most buyers can afford to pay. And which more buyers, who can af
ford to pay more, will pay when they realize the "down to the core" value of the Lexington.
There are some things about motor cars you ought to know before you pay out real money for
one. Mr. i, V. True of Alliance will be pleased to inform you of the things you want to know
about the Lexington. He will be pleased to give you a demonstration, too.
The makers of the Lexington arc sufficiently masters of this business of building motor cars
tossure every man who drives a Lexington that his car will bear not one commonplace mark.
His will be a car of distinctive ponts and "big moments."
If the cost of the Lexington is a little more than you anticipated paying remember it is better,
in buying your motor car, to go a little over your limit than a little under.
Yet, Remember that then- is a limit beyond it money buys nothing of value.
This investment, next to your home, is one of the most important you can make. You are af
forded the opportunity of buying your Lexington before August tenth and thereby saving
Sixty Dollars. Place your order for ihe car NOW at the old price. Orders can be wired in
as late as the tenth.
Be absolutely sun- you are right.
