D IS KEENEST AT ‘NIGHT i S That 3 ;mn ‘and Other Workers With 1 Their Brains, ‘ Many writers sleep with pencil and under thelr pillows and ‘a i1smp at hand, so that they may dash the thoughts that come to them in h tches: of ithe night. It is.sald, at Mary E#Wilking Freeman has a 'writer handy on an extension \Bpring, which she draws out from the ‘on its shelf and places in position Before her if she cannot gleep. There 'is about ' these thoughts a clarity ‘that does not come with day- wie ‘thinking—a ‘sureness 'of vision ¢ approaches the clairvoyant. A problem with which we have wres- #led in the daylight, weighing 1t with all our intelligence, is settled in a gu‘tltn way, calmly and judicially, and after mature reflection. Our deci- slon seems the ‘right one. And then, suddenly, in the dead of the night, that selfsame issue bobs up before our men- al vision, wakes us_from a sound sleep and settles itself in quite an- other way, in one great flash! A \strong white: light has been turned | fupon the brain and has revealed there & conclusion of which we had no ink- !llng before. The processes of ‘arriving At It are a closed chapter. The clair- ivoyant brain has registered a result ionly. And again and again it will be {found to be the right, the expedient solution, Memory, too, is peculiafly keen fn the ‘sllences between midnight and 4 ‘o'clock In the morning. All cobwebs :have been swept from the brain by the first hours of sleep; the body and .merve centers are singularly. rested; ithere are no noises to disturb and ,some subconscious power is at work ‘within us. i R \ HAD ANSWER IN READINESS | Ellen Terry’s Display of Tact Won En- thusiastic Admiration of Miss .

Ethel Barrymore, apropos of a witty remark made by a young actress at a garden party, sald: : “This young lady reminds; me of Ellen Terry, who was the wittlest and most tactful woman I ever knew. 8 “I once heard a story which is char- acteristic of Miss Terry's ready wit. “She was sued by her dressmaker ‘for an unpaid bill and the case went against her. Asking to be allowed to :appeal, she gave as que of her reasons .that the judge who rendered the deci- sion' was too old to understand the “The judge of dppeals reminded her . $aat ence before, In another suit, she .had complained that her case had bech itried by ‘a bit of a boy."

That is the guestion in e\réx'ybody;s mind today” when it comes to buying, or not buying. ‘ But, if you do want a Ford next spring it is good v -business to buy right now and here is the reason. The production of carsin the Ford price field has been greatly reduced. That is a fact, not “news.” Therefore theé Ford demand will be so heavy alpng toward spring that delivery will be out of the question. The Ford company manufacture so many cars per day summer and winter. Cur estimate is so. many cars per month, summer and winter. We are taking orders for spring delivery now and have been for over a month. The whole situation is something we would like to talk over with prospective buyers. Itisa matter of good sound business judgment on your and our part. There are times to be conservative, but it should be with godd business judgment, lest we stand in our own light. We are honest when we say that we have inside in- formation that leads us to state, if you really and truly are going to want a Ford product next spring, now is the time to buy and take delivery. ! \ ~ \ C.
