Are You Wasting The Price
Of a Titan Engine?
'TITAN engines run on kerosene.
Average cost of gasoline so far this year,,
16.9 cents per gallon.
AverageNcost of kerosene 7.7 cents per gallon.
Gasoline costs over 100 per cent more than kero
sene. Gasoline is going up steadily. Kerosene is not.
At present fuel prices Titan engines, using kero
sene, save their owners about 1. 1 cents per horse power
per hour.
Are you running a gasoline engine ? What horse power is
it? Figure what you'd be saving if you had a Titan kerosene
engine. Rather surprising, isn't it? -How. long would it take
that savins to pay for a Titan engine of the same size ?

World Film corporation presents
the five part photoplay, "The Fam
ily Cupboard," based on the very suc
cessful Brady stage play of the same
name.
Charles Nelson is a self-made man
and has amassed a fortune. Hi3 fam
ily consists of his wife, son Kenneth,
and daughter Alice. His wife has
become absorbed in society, requir
ing all the money her husband can
make to support the large establish
ment and entertain. The wife, sen
and daughter are out night after
night, leaving Mr. Nelson much
alone; while he pays the bills, he has
little of the society of his family. He
turns to Kitty Claire, a vaudeville
performer, for consolation and com
panionship. His son Kenneth gets into an argu
ment with a frjend at his club and
hears that his father is keeping a
woman in an establishment up town.
Kenneth returns home under the in
fluence of liquor and insults his
mother's companion, Mary Burke. Mr.
Nelson enters, sees the situation and
asks him what it all means. Kenneth
turns on,him and tells him that every
one knows he is keeping a woman in
an apartment up town. -This conver
sation is overheard by Mrs. Nelson,
who asks Mr. Nelson if it is true. He
replies "Yes." They agree to ipart.
Kenneth clings to his mother. Alice,
the daughter, sympathizes with her
father. She realizes that it is their
cwn fault; they have given him noth
ing in return for all his labor on their
behalf.
Mr. Nelson is now living at the Al
pine apartments, to which comes
Kitty Claire. He tells her the end
has come. Meanwhile Kenneth, the
Fon, has come to see his father. Kitty,
going out, hears him ask if his
father is in, and seeks an acquaint
ance with Kenneth, who becomes in
fatuated with her and moves to the
same hotel. Then Kenneth begins to
live a Bohemian life with Kitty
Claire and Dick LeRoy, another
vaudeville performer.
He finally asks Kitty to become his
wife. She replies that it is impos
sible, there was another man . The
boy, crushed and broken-hearted, de
mands the name of the man. Mr. Nel
son enters at the point when Ken
neth demands the name of the man.
Kitty points to Mr. Nelson.
Humiliated and ashamed, Kenneth
decides to end his life. He is about
to write a letter when his mother ar
rives. She sees the pistol and tries
to keep him from carrying out hi?
plan. They are interrupted by a
knock at the door; Kenneth is called
down to the office by the clerk; while
he is gone Mrs. Nelson seizes the op
portunity to telephone to Mr. Nelson.
He arrives, with Alice, the sister.
Kenneth and his father are recon
ciled, also Mrs. Nelson, and the hus
band and family are reunited.

HER DEATH NEAR
So Everyone Thought, But Is Now
Well And Stronger Than Ever.
Newton, Mo. "I can certainly
speak a good '"word or Cardui, the
woman's tonic," says Mrs. Jay
Rhoades, of .this town. "I suffered for
12 years with my right side, and the
last three years, I would have a bad
spell with it about every three months.
I wold get so bad off, every one
would think I could not live.
The first of July, I began taking
Cardui, the woman's tonic, and I
haven't had a bad- spell- since soon
after I began taking it.
Before taking Cardui, I was so ir
regular, and, at times, I could hardly
stand on my feet. Now, I can clean
house, and do any kind of work with
out its hurting me in the least.
' ' Cardui will surely do for other
women, what it did for me. I am tell
ing all my neighbors about it."
Cardui is a mild and effective tonic
for women, that has been found, by
actual use, during more than 50 years,
to relieve the ailments to which all
women are peculiarly liable. ,

pleasant to take, acts quickly, contains
no opiates. For sale everywhere.
