LINCOLN. March a -(Special. -Mem-ler
of th State Railway commission
ar becoming anxious tor the test as
to their right to make a physical valua
tion of street rallaay properties, but for
the present are beM up by the, non
action of the Omaha street railway com
pany. The city council of Lincoln has
asked the conunlaslo nto make such a
valuation of the Lincoln traction com
pany, but In view of the euatlon of Its
right tiesistates to expend the money
necessary to do the work. While the
Lincoln company has not committed Itself
on this particular question It has made
reports to the commission which In
volve the same principle of law and
whieh the Omaha company has refused
to do. It Is erasonably certal nthat no
attempt will be mad to make a valua
tion -on any street railway property until
the courts have passed on the rlfhts of
the commission. When blanks were sent
to the Omaha company they wera ac
companied by a notice that sixty days
would be allowed for return, as provided
by law. It was the understanding, how
ever, that the company would reply with
a t refusal . and mandamus proceedings
could tiien be commenced.
The company has shown a disposition
to take the full sixty days and all the
commission can do Is to sit down and
wait fo rtii rcptratlon of the time
limit. If the demand is Ignored or a
negative answer returned the matter will
be taken Into court at once. The street
railway company Insists that under the
wording of the law a street railway com
pany Is not subject to its provisions, as
the law says "railway." which they in
sist does not mean street railway.

The Board of PubMo Lands and Build
ings has received the reappralsement of
school lands In Oosper county and they
run about 5S per cent higher than the
old figures. Thesa values are the basis
of rentals paid to tba stale. In Dawson
county the board has a complaint from
on party who has school land under
lease. Under the old appraisement he
paid 138 per year for th us of Us acres.
whit under the new It will cost bhn H-t
per acre, or a tout of S3) per year. He
say a he Is willing to stand a rates from
th former figures, but thinks this I a
little too stiff. -

Like Comfort?
Then what's the us of breaking down your vigor wben there a
way to make and keep your dally life comfortable?
Most persons need all tbe vitality tbey can secure. Some have
an excess and proceed to destroy it with one or more of tbe sedative
drugs among the most common of which are coffee and tea. Tbey
could use that vigor to "get ahead" la buaineaa or whatever pursuit
tbey are engaged in, but, strange to lay, many prefer to nullify it
with drugs.
However, each one must make choice and pay the bill.
The one who can cut out coffee and tea when they ar known to'
cause sleepless nights and nervous troubles will surely win tbe laurels.
The change from coffee
or tea and their aches and
ilia to well-made
postum
with health and comfort, is
really quite easy.
Postum has a dark brown
color which changes to rich,
golden brown when cream is
added, and the snappy, dis
tinctive flavour (when made
according to directions) is
-very like the mild, high
grades of Java coffee.
Tbe change brings refresh
ing sleep, drives out the cof
fee and tea trouble and the
old condition of health and
comfort returns.

"Experiments satisfied me. soma five

Insomnia fronv which I suffered terribly,

"There's a Reason" for POSTUM
And Now
Which Car?
Cf To you who have decided but have not bought.
Cjp And to the intending buyer who has not yet
picked his car.
There is no exaggeration in the claim that there
will be a shortage of the choice automobiles this
Spring-.
This condition is just as' certain to prevail as is
the fact that the city's transportation lines will be
, Unable to accommodate the traffic demands during
the rush hours of any business day.
v The reason for such shortage during the Spring
months even of the less desirable cars is that no
manufacturer has the production facilities necessary
to meet the season's ordinary demand.
No manufacturer can build cars as far in '
advance of the actual selling season such as is pos
sible in other lines, as, for instance, in the case of a
hat manufacturer. More capital would be required
to do that than any manufacturer can command.
So for that reason it is necessary that whatever
car you finally decide to buy, your purchase must
be made now.
The choice seats at the theaters when the popu
lar shows are being produced are always sold far
in advance of the performance.
Unless you buy early you must either pay &
premium to get good seats, or else accept what
is left.
It is just so in the case of an automobile.. For
with the coming of warm days and other indioa- .
tions of Spring, others besides yourself will want
immediate delivery.
They too, will want the best car. There are
not enough of any of the ten choice automobiles
to supply the demand.
Do you think it safe to wait?
And Now About the
New. Self-Starting HUDSON "33
What has your investigation up-and-down Far
nam street shown
With what experience and dependable knowl
edge have you made your examination of the cars
that appeal to you?
Has it been the color, the lines, the personality
of the salesman, the atmosphere of the store, or have
you depended npon your own knowledge of mechan
ical and automobile value?
And if such has been your guide, are you confi
dent enough of your own judgment to back it in this
instance with so large a sum as is involved in the
purchase of a motor car $1,000 to $2,000?
''' Engineers do not agree absolutely as to values.
1 " Each has his own preference as to construction
and certain other details, but all do concur in the
credit that is paid to Howard E. Coffin, America's
foremost engineer, and designer of the New Self
Starting HUDSON "33."
Not for an instant do you question the value of
any article sold by Tiffany.
Napoleon said that when people have no confi
dence in doctors, they have no need for doctors.
You choose your doctor because of what he has
done for others and for you on account of his per
sonalityand you implicitly abide by his advice.
Why not buy a motor oar in the same manner?
Here is a car that is the duplicate of thousands
in the hands of owners everywhere, who are daily
proving that Howard E. Coffin has built better than
his contemporaries.
Such service shows the value of the car's great
simplicity. Understand the advantage of an auto
mobile having approximately 1000 fewer parts than
has the average car. Know that that means lower
manufacturing cost, fewer parts to get out of ad
justment, fewer parts to attend to. Realize the sav
ing thus effected and you can appreciate why expert
enced buyers some who own many cars which
have cost two or three times the price of the New
.Self-Starting HUDSON "33" have chosen it as
the choice car of the market.
All cars sooner or later, for one reason or an
other must receive the attention of a mechanic.
. The more complicated its mechanism, the more
time will the automobile be out of service and in the
hands of repairmen.
Ask repairnien what cars come most frequently
to them for such attention. .
There are approximately 200 HUDSONS in serv
ice in the Omaha district. , We give practically all
the mechanical attention that a tjig majority of these
cars ever require yet we need for such service fewer
men than are employed by other distributors having
less than a fifth as many oars to look after.
Service is, of course, essential but it should be
seeded only to meet contingencies. It should not be
needed to constantly readjust and repair tba car. .
' ' Even though such servioe were furnished with
out charge you don't want a car that requires such
attention. For you want your oar to be ready for
use when you want it, and sot in the repair shop un
dergoing attention that but temporarily fits it for
use.
Are you sura that the car you had made up your
mind to buy is as simple, as el-gant, as beautiful, as
quiet and of as much value as the NEW Self-Starting
Hudson "33?"
Are you safe, think you, in postponing your final
selection until so late in the season that all the
choice cars will have been taken?
Place yourselves in the position of the man
about to buy a house. No matter how well satisfied
he might be with any property, he would not defi
nitely place his order before examining the house
which experts declare to be a greater bargain.
And no one seriously thinking of buying, would
delay his decision when he knew others were snap
ping up all the property in the locality.
Come see the New Self-Starting Hudson "33"
and thus be assured that you are not choosing
blindly.
Come at once and thus be assured that you can
get the car you want when you wast it and that you
will not have to accept a car with which you will not
be satisfied.
Reminder to Get Book
Examine Other Cars, Tool
And then you can understand the meaning of
such simplicity. Come to us with a vivid recollection
of the confusion of rods, wires, etc., common to all
other automobiles, and contrast it with this simple
car of few parts and much value.
In any repair shop you can obtain conclusive
in information bearing upon the much talked about
subject of automobile service.
