Western Union Use
the Distance 'Phones
to Increase Service
Will Call Parties in Town Where
Station ii Closed Without
Extra Cost.
By a recent order of the Western Union
Telegraph company, long distance tele
phones are to be used In sending and de
livering Important messages, without extra
charge to the sender It Is an added con
venience In large and small cities and rural
districts. Her Is the way It works:
A messare rnmr-ft to the Omaha office
at 14 o'clock at night for someone In an
Inland town, where th telegraph office Is
Closed. Perbap It Is from Denver snd
tells of the serious illness of a relative.
The Omaha office believes It lmieratlre
that the person should receive the message
the ssme night. In order to catch a train.
The person Is at once called up on th long
distance telephone and though th cost of
this may be more than the original cost
of the message no extra charge Is made
and the telegraph company and the tele
phone company split th cost of the orig
inal message. On the other hand, suppose
any one In a city or Inland town wants to
send a message on a cold winter's or
stormy night All that Is necessary is to
ring tha telephone central and say "tele
gram," If long distance the message will
b sent at th cost of th message from
th sender's town and no charge made for
the telephone connection.

Their investigation will prove that
a motor car, in order to give undivided service,
must be manufactured accurate, of the best of
material and finest workmanship.
They arc not contented with mere
talk about a car, but they are educated up to a
point of wanting to be SHOWN.
The Cadillac Car has a world wide
reputation of being the finest specimen of
standardization, interchangeahility and per
fect alignment.
The Cadillac Company has always
practiced the principle that in building motor
cars it costs less to do work that is clean, close
and accurate than it does to do work that is
poor and slovenly, but in order to do work that
is clean, close and accurate, you must have the
right equipment and the right organization.
The Cadillac practice is held in
world wide esteem by engineering experts, and
their shop is admired as a model in men, ma
chinery, methods and management
In proof of this it is only necessary
to point to the 40,000 Cadillacs in use all over
the world.

BUG they are putting in your car is used as a

are either handling some other make or have

All we ask of you is to investigate
