'' The allies' in respect to mt?h have more than redressed the balance of the severe losses in flicted upon them earlier by the Germans, beginning March 21. In less than four months, according to the Germans' statements, they captured over prisoners, French, British, Belgian, Portuguese, Italian and American. Assuming that since July 15 the Germans' losses in killed and wounded were offset by equal losses on the part, of the allies which is improbable, during all that period Amer ican troops have been movipg overseas at the rate of a almost 10,000 a day. In three months 846,000 Americans were actu ally transported. ?

As a fortress Metx has always been of tha highest importance, and . now ranks with Straasburg aa one of the two great bulwarks of the defense of the Ger man frontier. Under Xapoleon III the fortress was strengthened to meet the demands of modern warfare, and since 1871 the Germans have spared neither time nor money in completing and perfecting the fortifications. :3 E3 The Government has ask- ed that you do not swamp the stores at Xmas time, Qwihg tatlieshortage'ofrlabori but to The appeal for aid in sim plifying deliveries in Tendle- !Jton deserves the response re quested.

Four-Passenger, hut with th body lengthened bo as , to accommodate two auxili- -ary seats. The chassis with the perfected overhead-vale engine is the same as used on other Stephens Salient Six Models. ive 1 U Model 76 embodies alt the ultra-smart, aristocratic, and distinct ines which characterize the Stephens Four-Passenger but with the added advantage of two auxiliary seats, providing extra capa city without sacrificing comfort and appearance. . The lines are long with a spirited sweep that attracts attention and arouses enthusiasm. The radiator and cowl are high and narrow, tapering gracefully into low body sides that are kept uniformly close by slightly reducing the width of the rear seat to roomy two-passenger capacity, the same as our popular four-passenger- model. This combining of lowness and narrowness with full stream-line beauty of design accentuated by a double cowl produces an effect tjiat is ultra plea.sing. The finish is Mist O'Marne blue with fine line striping and Jiatural wood wheels. . $ 4 .., , , i ; . i . i, - Sa are so arranged that 4, f or 6 passengers may be accom modated and ride in comfort.
