DESCRIPTION OF THE
1914 OVERLANDS
The 1914 Overland cars are not radi
cally different from those of the sea
son just past, although they show dif
ferences in a number of points, most
of the changes being in the matter of
dimensions and added equipment,
rarher than in other respects.
A brief review of the details shows
that the motor is very similar in con
strucion to that of the Model 69, of
which 40,000 were built during the
1912-1913 season.
The motor is somewhat larger, 4 1-8
by 4 inches, and have been improved
by the adoption of a constant level
splash lubricating system. The push
rods can be removed without disturb
ing the camshaft, being held in place
by drop forged claws. The operation
of the push rods is made almost noise-
L less by the use of bronze caps fitted
over the push rod tops.
In order to compensate for the low
er volatility of present day gasoline,
the intake manifold has been redesien-
ed and given a smaller diameter. The
universal joint is larger than last year
to compensate for the increased pow
er.
The three-quarter floating Over
land rear axle remains the same as be
fore, as also does the braking equip
ment.
A roomy cowl dash touring body
seating five passengers and finished
in dark green with light green strip
ing and nickel and aluminum trim-
nings is mounted on a wheel base of
114 inches; its doors are U-shaped
very wide; and hinged at the front on
disappearing hinges, so that the sides'
of the body remain without projec
tions. At the rear of the front seats,
where the passengers feet occassion
ally come in contact with the fin
ished body surfaces, a protector strip
"is provided. The steering wheel is
18 inches in diameter and the steering
post carries a carbureter adjusting
lever within easy reach of the driver's
hand.
The roadster body is of attractive
design, also of the cowl dash type,
with a 32-gallon gasoline tank at the
rear. Back of the tank is a large
steel tool compartment rectangular in
shape, and large enough to carry reg
ular touring necessities. Both " tour
ing car and roadster have verticle
tire-carriers in rear, accomodating
two spare casings. All spring ends
have bronze bushings.
The radiator of the new Overland
cars is of an improved type, with
large water spaces.
The touring car and the roadster are
electrically lighted, current being fur
nished from a Willard storage battery
carried at the right side of the running
board and the dash light which illum
inates the instruments, such as spe:d
ometter, ammeter, etc., is connected
witii this tail light in series, so thai
the proper working of the tail light
is indicated by the dash light.
The tops are hooked to the bracket
of the sidelights, which leaves the
front 6f the car unincumbered and
certainly adds to the sightliness of the
covering when the top is up.' Touring
car and roadster, equipped with elec
tric horn, Stewart speedometer, clear
vision ventilating wind-shie'.d, mohair
top, side curtains and boot, tools, jack,
pump and electric lights and storage
battery included, sell for $950.00 when
equipped with Gray & Davis electric
engine starter and generator, the
price is $1075.00.
The Overland coupe comes equipped
with electric lights and with Gray &
Davis electric starter and generator.
Seating accomodations are for four
passengers and all seats face forward.
Upholstery is of Bedfords cloth and
the upper portions of the body inter
ior are in natural wood finish. For
the storing of goggles, veils and other
articles, there is covered compartment
behind the driver s seat wbicn is
slightly in advance of the regular seat.
The Overland coupe body is made
rather attractive by the fact that the
plate glass sides, right and left of the
windshield, are round and .without the
usual unsightly sash, instead of square
and encased in wood, so that they give
an unobstructed view of the road
ahead. The coupe is listed at $1550.

BIG POWERS SEEK
TO SWAY HUERTA
WASHINGTON, Aug. 23. Great
Britain, France and Japan are among
the countries who have interposed
their influenece upon the Huert ad
ministrtion in Mexico in support of
the efforts of the United States to
bring about a peaceful settlements of
the revolution.
While administration officils were
silent today regarding this phase of
the situation there was a lively inter
est manifest in diplomatic circles her
as to the probable effect of foreign
pressure on the Huerta government.
Mexicans Hope for Delay
It was learned that the Mexican
authorities hoped President Wilson
would not read his message to con
gress next Tuesday as he had planned
and showed a disposition to prolong
the negotiations.
Unless some tangible overture, how
ever, is received within 48 hours from
the Huerta officials indicating a de
sire to accept the fundamental propos
als of the United States, the president
will proclaim to congress and to the
world the attitude of this government
toward the southern republic.
The fact that diplomats from some
of the very countries which not only
have formally recognized Huerta, but
whose bankers hitherto have floated
loans for him, are using their influence
on the Mexican administration in cal
culated to produce something definite
shorily.
Enterprise advertising pays.

CLEVER WOMAN GIVES DISTINCTION TO HER OWN AND HER CHIL
DREN'S CLOTHES BY A CAREFULLY CHOSEN, AND CLEVERLY
DISPOSED NOTE OF CONTRAST
o. 7866 m&S 7905 V- K -J
Are you one of the women who think
it is impossible to get any individual
ity into the plain every-day frock?
Then you must change that attitude
of thought right away. There are wot
men, lots of them, upon whose' very
limited purse there are so mamy de
mands that they cannot afford - for
themselves any but the plainest of
clothes'
Yet no one would think of describ
ing their things as commonplace or
ordinary. Sometimes it is just a bit
of hard work, a little cross-stitch em
broidery in black silk on a plain white
linen dress. Or again as in 7S66, a
well-chosen trimming band of contrast
ing material, with an attractive girdle.
Plan Before Buying
It is a good idea to plan out you
dress before buying the material, and
take a sample of the material with
you to match up in buying the trim
ming. But it is in the girdles that
the woman who wants to achieve in
dividuality sees her greatest oppor
tunity and she haunts the mark-down
Capture of Washington
WASHINGTON, D. C, Aug. 23. It
will be ninety-nine years tomorrow
since a British army, under the com
mand of Gen. Ross, entered Washing
tion, having defeated 6000 Americau
soldiers on their way. Plans for an
appropriate observance of the centen
nial anniversary next year are now
being discussed.
Promote Hygienic Work
BUFFALO, N. Y., Aug. 23. Local ar
rangements are complete for the Inter

which is to meet in this city Monday
for a session of five days. The con
gress will bring together several hun
dred notable educators, scientists,
heal officers and civic welfore work
ers from the leading nations of 'the
world.
PRONE
IS
In the prune market now there is a
generally stronger feeling than usually
prevails at tis time of the year, and
reasons for this are found in the esti
mates on the 1913 output for the world
as compared with the average of re
cent years that have been given out
by the best known trade authorities.
The latest calculations of the ex
perts indicate that the world's produc
tion for 1913 will be little if at all
above 220,000,000 pounds, though some
of the authorities still are counting on
an output of approximately 230,000,000
pounds. But even if the latter figure
is reached, the world's product will
still be materially short of that of last
year, which totaled about 285,000,009
pounds.
Another fact of interest in this con
nection is that in addition to the big
total shown in last year's crop there
was a very considerable carry-over
from the crop of the previous year
then on hand. This year, with a crop
DangerousDandruff
Will Make America a Baldheaded Na
tion if Not Checked
M. Pasteur, the great French Physi
cian of Paris, once said: "I believe we
shall one day rid the world of all dis
eases caused by germs."
Dandruff is caused by germs, a fact
accepted by all physicians.
Dandruff is the roof of all hair evils.
If it were not for the little destruc
tive, germs working with a persistency
worthy of a better cause, thei-e would
be no baldness.
Parisian Sage will kill the dandruff
germs and remove dadruff in two
weeks or money back.
Huntley Bros. Co. guarantees it. It
will stop itching scalp, falling hair and
make the hair grow thick and abund
ant. It puts life and lustre into the hair
and prevents it from turning gray.
It is the hair dressing par excellence
daintily perfumed and free from
grease and stickiness. It is the favor
ite with women of taste and culture
who know the social value of fascin
ating hair.

I. C. S. An Ethical Power
Now, gentlement, just for a moment, I would speak to you, not as
an educationalist, but as a preacher of manhood and a lover of his
kind. The question of the use of alchohol by the student when study
ing, has carried me back to the thought. The International Correspond
ence Schools are not simply educational, they are ethical; they not
only make foremen and craftsmen, and draftsmen, but they make
MEN in capital letters. For you can never awaken any one to his
commercial possibilities without stirring up all other possibilities so
cial, patriotic, philanthropic, intellectual, moral. The moment you suc
ceed breaking up one area of inertia you set vibration moving through
every la.rt of the being and all kinds of dormant and stagnant powers
are set into healthy motion. When a man's mind gets engrossed with
an intellectual occupation and he finds that he has a grip upon the
laws and forces oi the universe, the saloon, the vulgar and degrading
-ov, the curb-stone loafing, and the hours of inane and ribald waste
all seem to tie unworthy of him and his self-respect clothes him in a
protective armor which helps to keep his entire manhood inviolate. A
great American preacher used to speak much about "the expulsive pow
er of a new affection," and, having as your life .work the duty of both
supplying and developing this "new affection" the love cf the best, by
which the unworthy and base will be expelled, perhaps unconsciously
but surely, from many and many a man. Success to you iu yonr work!
t , The Trained Man Never Worries
- When the chiefs put their heads together to hire or "fire," the
trained man doesn't worry. He knows that there is always a place for
him. . -
You can look your job and every man in the face if you possess the
training so much in demand everywhere today. The International
Correspondence Scnools will go to you in your spare time, whereever
you live, and will train you to become an expert in your chosen line
of work. Such a training will forever take you off the "anxious" seat.
It costs you nothing to find how the I. C. S. can nelp you. - Mark
the coupon opposite the occupation for which you have a natural lik
ing, mail the coupon today, and the I. C. S. will send you facts showing
how you can earn more money in the occupation of your own choice.
