SISTENT RELIABILITY.
Jacksonville, Fla., Oct 27. Au
tomobile world here is in a fever
over the great Glidden tour finish,
which occured yesterday In Jack
sonville, with the Maxwell team of
three cars triumphant. This con
test has commanded the widest In
terest of all events scheduled in
this part of the country. Speed
and . endurance were never put to
a severer test Eighteen teams from
the best car manufacturers of the
country entered for the 1454-mile
journey between . New - York and
Florida. In the long struggle down
the Atlantlo seaboard It : seemed
that nothing could be made mora
'crucial, and when the , Maxwell
team finished first with the Stev-ens-Duryea
second and the Cadil
lac third, the enthusiasm of the au
tomobile owners and manufactur
ers rose to the highest pitch.
-The home stretch was through
Florida's sand-bottomed pine for
ests. Here It seemed Impossible
that speed could be made, but the
Maxwell trio went througa It like
mad. This forest reach had suc
ceeded the waterbreaka of Penn
sylvania, the i difficulties of Shen
andoah valley,- the rugged trails
through the Blue Ridge mountains
and the oozy, red clay of the Caro
lina and Georgia, .That 11 of the
18 teams" failed to qualify In the
great contest was no surprise but
that the, seven gaining, finish hon
ors should do so In the time estab
lished did make the best students
of road travel scratch their heads
In amazement
': October 14 was the date for leav
ing New York. The team of Stev-ens-Duryeas
was entered and driv
en : by leading motorists of the
south. The Maxwell scare was
perfect while the Stevens got pen
alties of 19and'fh Cadillac 23
points respectively. The penalties
fixed upon th 11 teams falling to
gain finish honor's ranged from one
to 3,000 points.
A thrilling - feature of the big
contest was the trophy, offered by
the city of Anderson, S. C, for, the
best individual score, regardless
of price or crass. Several tied
scores resulted, among the number
being Miss Birdie Marks of Athens.'
Ga., .who drove her silver-plated '.
Columbia roadster the entire 1,454
miles and. the Maxwell ear entered
by Governor Hoke Smith, of Geor
gia; ' Both these cars had perfect
scores at the finish.. At the meet

Averts Awful Tragedy.
Timely advice given Mrs. C. Wil-
loughby, of Marengo, Wis., (R. No. 1)
prevented a dreadful tragedy and sav
ed two lives. Doctors had said her
frightful cough was a "consumption"
cought and could do little to help her.
After many remedies failed, her aunt
urged her to take Dr. King's New Dis
covery. "I have been' taking it for
some time," she wrote "and the awful
cough has almost gone.' It also saved
my little boy when taken with a se-.
vere bronchial trouble." This match
less medicine has no equal for throat
and lung troubles. Price 60c and $1.00.
Trial bottle free. Guaranteed by all
druggists." ""' " '' " '. ' ebd St wkly
When you have a bad cold you want
the best medicine obtainable so as to
curt It with as little delay as possible.

sold Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for
15 years," says Enos Lollar of Sara
toga, Ind., "and consider It the best
