B R R which it is intended? It does. What canyou say of a day’s out- ing in a Ford? It consists of a continuous spin over hill and vale, full of pleasure, fun and satisfaction. What are the necessaries to take for a day's outing in a Ford? A little gasoline in a tank, a lit- tle oil in the engine and a little water in the radiator, and your wife art@habies in the ear. Why are Fords more cheaply and gatisfactorify ‘operated than automo- biles? Because they are mechanically perfect, free from cumbersome ad- junets; in other words, they are sim- plicity simplified. Now, what is an automobile? A car usually of heavy weight with big, expensive pneumatic tires, high rated horsepower, made up of storage batteries, magnetic clutches, a network of wiring, automatic pumps, air-pressure pumps, oil pumps, oil feed pipes, sight oil feed, odometers, clocks, volt-meters, aero- meters, air pressure gauges, shock absorbers and other mechanical con- glomeration intended as a medium of separating the rich from their cash . Does it fulfill the which it was intended? It used to—but not now. What can you say of a day's out- ing in an automobile? It consists of break-downs, downs, lay-outs and blow-outs. What are the necessaries to take for a day’s outing in an automobile? Four big extra casings, extra tubes, an electrician, a mechanician, an able-bodied chauffeur, a check book and a good account with your local bank; and you will need to frequent gasoline stations, telephone stations and garages. Why are automobiles more expen- sive to operate thap Fords? For the same reason that it is im- purpose for bog- practicable to operate locomotives with pneumatic tires on dirt roads. | 2848 NOTICE OF DISSOLUTION Notice is hereby given to the pub- lic that the undersigned have this day by mutual consent dissolved the co-partnership heretofore existing between them under the name and style of Lakeland Business College.

O'BRIEN. _————mm—mu== Copyr A Late tn the afterhoon of the day | that Henry Elton received from the chiet bookkeeper a confirmation of his | own idea that he had completed his first million, he, Mr. Elton, remem- bered that he had forgotten some ! thing. ‘ “It was just twenty years ago to- day,” he said to ope of his partners— and the partner pricked up his ears as if expecting orchestral accompani- ment—*“that I left Farmerstown. | “It was a day just like this down in ;M.me. spring in the air, but not so | much hellish noise. 1 haven't been | back there since” “Village turn out to say farewell to “Why haven't you married her?”’ pursued ‘he blunt partner, “I haven't had time,” said Elton sharply. “I don’t know whether she'd marry me. I don't even know that she's alive. Probably if I saw her coming this minute I'd run, scream- ing! “But if I had gone back In ten years and married her I probably would be better off. What have I got now? A million, according to the books; an apartment with a man servant who is a constant reproach; an automobile whose real owner, the chauffeur, won’t let me jiggle the carburetor, and a case of occasional jumps, which the doctor calls the warning of nervous breakdown.” “That milllon might have eome slight appeal to the lady,” sald Hen- derson, “if she is still free and as attractive as of yore. What was her | juvenile idea of & triumphal return?” “She asked me,” sald Elton slowly and reflectively, “to come back hon- est and buy her the brooch in the gen- eral store.” “Ah, a taste for adornment,” com- mented Henderson. “Nothing beyond your present means, I trust.” “A plain little cameo thing,” laughed Elton, “with two faces on it and a square gold band around it. I think old Baxter wanted $8.75 for it; sald the gold was 18-carat. We used to look at it almost every day, “I think," continued Elton after a pause, “that Il go to Europe. The market is dull and I'm tired.” “You'd better go to Maine,” said Henderson. “Perhaps your chauffeur would consent to drive you there.” Four days later Elton entered Farm- erstown in six-cylinder triumph. No one seemed to know him and he was glad of it.

Elton went in, bought three apples and asked to see collar buttons. While he trified with the buttons he scanned the show case. He had in his pocket a solitaire wor- | thy of an assistant rajah’s bride, but he knew the value of the dramatic and | he felt that it—well, “The only on-the-level farewell I got | ol i voiad 0 say anything important the brooch would be a help. The brooch was there and it was still $8.75. Elton bought it. “I wonder,” mused Elton as his car sped toward the house of James Sarre, “Just how long that brooch was in the store and how much the loss on it was at compound interest.” Elton was spared the embarrass- ment of asking for Mary Sarre. She was coming out of the gate as he neared her father's house, He saw two things at a glance; that| she was unmarried and very poor. He might have been able to tell you why he knew she was poor, but the art of learning at a glance whether & person one has not seen in twenty years is married or not is an art that | cannot be described—at least not ! here. Nor did he, when the car sty beside her, need to bring into l;)lp:;’ any of the small, polite conversation he had prepared in the fear that he might find her some one whom he hardly knew.
