any person la true to bis heavenly vision
be la bound to rise. -
"The greatest battles of the world And
those that destroy or make nations are
fought In the soul. The fight starts In
the soul and It Is there the battle rage
the hardest. No man will ever be aoie
to live tne life God wante him to unleei
he sera his heavenly vision and ha
uttial courage the courage of man,"

the park commlaslonere shall pay out ot
their personal funds tor 2u0 park seats
purchased by them ot the C. Hennecke
company or whether the bill, amounting
to S3o, shall be paid out of park funds.
An Irregularity in the purchase of the
Seats, which were needed at once, mad
the transaction Illegal, according to the
Opinion of the assistant city attorney.
In his opinion the assistant city attorney
advocated that the payment be made out
of the park funds, so that Hennecke
Would not be angered 'too much by the
delay. Mr. Hennecke has been supply
ing the park with material and waa
notified by them that bids for the seats
would be received. He sent, his bid,
which was the lowest, but failed to ac
company It with a certified check, as
required by law. He has become peeved
at the delay In meeting the bill and haa
served the commissioners with notice that
unless It Is paid lnstanter he will draw
on them personally for It

mouth. When he began convalescing,
every piece of paper waa treated the
same way and pencil could not be kept
from hi mouth.

T. T. Harris and were astonished to heat
the physician prescribe three cigarette

make him discontented and resile, we
hope to restore hi health."

In this connection the bishop advised and
urged his people to keep away from thoe

The city officials and business men of
the city who have taken steps to Inaugu

YOU can distinguish any Stoddard-Dayton
closed car. You recognize them instantly.
There is an air about them that is indi
vidual a character that is commanding. You
don't hesitate to declare them the most strik
ing motor car in existence.
It's not a matter of color nor of line.
They're altogether smart, up-to-date, pleasing,
impressive, individual. ,
You, can pay $10,000 for a car, you can fit
it with" extravagantly-chosen fabrics, but you
can't build more quality nor more distinction
into one, than you'll find in this Stoddard
Dayton "Saybrook."
i; Itsthe little things that make it the atten
tion to a hundred details which in themselves
seem so trivial, but combined mean satisfaction.
I We've made a specialty of these niceties.1
The running-board tool box, which removes
all unsightly obstructions from the step, im
proves the appearance of the car an hundred
fold and adds to the convenience of exit and en
trance. Exclusively a Stoddard-Dayton feature.
The sashless, heavy plate-glass windows
slide in velveted grooves making rattling
impossible, so that over the roughest roads your
car rides silently. Being 6ashlcss, full vision
is secured. That's just another instance of
Stoddard-Dayton refinement. We might multi
ply them endlessly.
So in each detail of manufacture in design
and in construction. Every tried and proven
mechanical feature to aid smooth, silent run
ning, and comfortable, easy riding, you'll find '
in this Stoddard-Dayton "Saybrook.'
