This five-passenger 1911 model White Steamer Touring Car odorless, Smokeless and noiseless is in the tenth year of its success. No car has stood the test of time with necessity for fewer changes. For stability in construction as well as in pur pose and performance, the "White Steamer" has held a high place in the mind of the motoring public This car needs no cranking nor shifting of gears to get any desired speed. The increasing number of White Steamer cars being sold each suc ceeding year, together witli the practical, endorsement' of the II. S. government, which owns and operates more Whites than all other makes combined, is sufficient guarantee of high quality. : ML : Second IPpIze In a climate shown by the Government chart to be the same as that of Los Angeles, Fresno, etc., lies Tehama county, California.

'1 v,. f - .'V V XI-aiii IPrlse The accompanyihg illustration tells only of the outside of this magnificent KRELL AUTO-GRAND PIANO. It tells not of the vast' excellence that lies beneath its magnificent, fancy walnut case. Well informed piano men are insistent in the claim that the Krell Auto-Grand is positively the most complete and efficient player-piano offered to the music-loving public. The modulating pedals and the mechanism to carry the tune above the accompaniment are marvels of simplicity. The Krell Auto-Grand claims to have in the absolute, the "human touch'1 so prized by player-piano makers. From the inside to the case, from the pedals to the levers this magnificent $900 player-piano may be examined with every facility at the piano ware rooms on the third floor of (he big ESennett Department Store 4W 'f- " fWtf AwtU ,lPfc . i.

' .V,r-,.'lJ, Prizes Six, Seven and Eight Are In many respects the choicest prizes In this long list- To the ambitious boy or girl, as well as to the ma tured student, an Encyclopedia, brought up to the last hour, Is by far the greatest possible girt, but here Is an Encyclopedia brought Into being by man's Ingenuity whl ch is probably the last word In Encyclopedia making. Mere is a loose-leaf Encyclopedia with a system of perpetual addenda. In this plan of Encyclopedia when a sud Ject grows old or modern thought puts new phases on it, the makers of this wonderful work send a new leaf to take Its place and by the use of a key the metal binder is unlocked, the pases loosened, the old page extracted and the new leaf takes its place. Presto! the Encyclopedia is up to the last hour. It cannot grow old. This Encyclopeda contains twelve volumes and la sold regularly at $96.00 a set. The work is produced by Thomas Nelson A Sons of New York, London, Dublin and Edinburgh. This house was founded in 1798. The Omaha representative is W. A. HUenbaugh & Co. and these volumes will be on exhibition from this time until the close of the Booklovers' Contest at 1814 St. Mary's Avenue. Three sets 6f this magnificent Encyclopedia bound In three-quarters morocco will be given as prlies numbers si, seven and eight. Prizes Nine and Ten are constituted of two twenty-four volume cloth bound sets of the Book of Knowledge, an Encyclopedia made espe cially for children and regularly sold at J36.00 a set. To the man who conceived this idea belongs much credit. It tells children in child language of the evolution of this sphere on which we live, from a ball of fire Into the cooled earth we now inhabit, as wall as explaining the process by which the simple leg of a chair Is made, the invention of the telephone, and every con ceivable need of early education, as well as that needed by many grown-ups, telling it all in the simple language that he who runs may read. These sets contain hundreds of plates in colors and thousands in black and white. This Is a great opportunity offered along consola tlon lines tor those who fall to win one of the first and larger prizes. These books are also on exhibition at the store of V. A. Hixenbaugh & Co., 1814 St. Mary's Avenue. Extra coupons are on sale at the business office of The Bee for one cent each. Winners in the first contest used many extra coupons.
