Nelson la the greatest up hill fighter th world has known. He Is perseverance itself, and if the king of Denmark confers on him the right to sport a coat-of-erms. Nelson should have for his motto 'Try, try again." As Abe Attell Is disinclined to tackle anything but th hort route, even in defense of his championship, th proa- ?ects of another meeting between At ell and Own Moran are dim. A far as can be judged, the moat rabid pa tron of pugilism' would not walk across the street to see Moran and tAttell In anything short of a finish fight, and as th promoters are careful, to keep a fln- frer on the publlo pulse, we are not Ikely to hear of som matchmaker rhamlnr to send the oalr into the ring again under conditions anything similar to what prevailed In th fights on New Tear's and Labor day; ArtU Waak-Xneod. .

' . - --. For the fourth consecutive time Pierce cars have carried off first hon6rs in the. most famous endurance test of the world, the Glidden Tour, competing in' each case against the acknowledged best American and foreign makes. For 1909 Fierce Arrow cars of the various models mentioned below will be pro duced. No factory has ever made so complete a line of high-grade cars, and in every detail the well-known Pierce standard of quality is maintained. 1909 PIERCE ARROW CAffS 24-Horsepower (A. L. A. M.

A positiveinxerlocking device makes it absolutely impossible to change gears without throwing out clutch. .Regular equipment on all cars include two gas headlights and genera tor, two side oil lamps, one oil tail lamp, gasoline tanjc gauge, Veeder odometer, Truffault Hartford shock absorbers, extra tire carrier, full set tools.' Our 36-Horsepower, Six-Cylinder, Five-Passenger Touring "Cars and Runabouts meet a long-felt want, for a light, small, snappy high-grade car $3,700 to $4,000, according to body desired. . A - . . Our 48-Horsepower, Seven-Passenger, Six-Cylinder is unquestionably the most luxuri ous, most vibrationless, most reliable, most durable Touring Car ever constructed, and you are most earnestly urged to get a demonstration and make a thorough investigation of this "matchless Pierce Six' before buying any large four-cylinder car. We urge you to buy a six, not because we have no large four to sell you, for we have, but because we are fully con vinced ourselves of the marked superiority pf the six. The Pierce Six is the last word in luxurious automobiling. In order to insure delivery when wanted, we urge you to place your orders early. In from 60 to 90 days we will move into our new building, corner Seventh and Couch streets. This building will be brick, 100x100, two floors. Here we will have a garage, re pair shop and salesroom second to none anywhere. It is to be known as the "Home of the Pierce Arrow and Cadillac," as there Pierre and' Cadillac cars will be sold and cared for ex clusively. . , After five years' experience in the auto business, and after dealing in about 20 different makes, we have come to the conclusion that the Pierce Arrow in the hiirh-priced class and the Cadillac in the moderate-priced class are good enough for us to tie to exclusively. This ! j . t f r: I t. i ' . oucy insures gqpa care to every purcnaser ui x jcitc anu vaumac tars, it mattes it pOSSl le to carrv a eooa stock of spare parts.

' V , Naturally, there has-been a good deal of speculation on the part of the public as to whether the new $1,405 .Cadillac was to be a neap car, or whether the well-known Cadillac quality was to be maintained. I have seen the car and made a thorough examination of it, and I want to tell you that there is nothing cheap about it except the price. When you see it you will wonder how they can do it for the money. It's a development of our 1907 and 1908 $2,000 car, larger and very greatly improved in appearance and improved mechanically wherever possible. There's not an atom o? uncertainty about this car. It's a thoroughly tried-out proposition,- and you are not taking a chance when buying it. There is every indication that (he output of these cars, enormous as it will be, will not be nearly eufficient'to meet the demand. Consequently we urge upon you the importance of phrcing your order upon approval at once. t Covey for Car Co. Sixteenth and Alder Streets
