Canada furnishes us with the wol verine, an animal closely resembling a young bear except that it is much more ferocious and greedy. Aside from being fierce and forever hun gry, it is the enemy of other fur bearers and in the course of a year devours many beavers and muskrats. The Indian has long prized the strong, sharp snow-white claws of the 'wolverine, which it skilfully uses in catching its prey In the open or In digging them out of their homes.

In winter the short fur is almost a I true black, but at other seasons is reddish-brown on. the sides. Though the annual collection of this fur is small, it is always very serviceable and, at times, very popular as a novelty. Another novelty fur is that of the spotted ringtail, called a cat because of its relation to the feline. This animal measures about 35 inches in length, including the tail, which is nearly a foot and one-half long, marked with alternating rings of black and white, eight of the rings being black. The fur on all parts of the body is dotted with nearly circular dots, averaging about one-half inch in diameter; the fur being soft and fairly abundant, it makes a good fur for the woman who likes something odd. These two furs are "good" for a year or two at occasional times, so don't let any furrier recommend either of them to you unless you know that he is abreast of the fur fashions.

There never was a time when car purchasers should be more careful than now; when values should be weighed more wisely and a car bought with an eye to its lasting quality and the stability of its builders. Every day brings fresh evidence that people recog nize the superior quality of Lexington. It is on this basis only that we do business. For instance, economy the exclusive Lexi-gasifier enables you to get more mileage and more power from present-day low-grade fuel than -was for merly possible with high-test gas. Lexington is the only car with the Moore Multiple Exhaust System, which makes a marvelous improvement in engine efficiency. WE will guarantee to all Lexington deal ers and distributers, and through them their custo mers, the net amount of any price reduction, made on any model of Lexington cars, from August 2 to December 31, 1920. The quality of Lexing ton cars will be maintained even if it requires raising the price. We will not cause nor permit Lexing ton owners, who have bought from our dealers, to lose confidence in this organization. FRANK B.
