BUICK DESIGN
BUICK VALVE-IN-HEAD POWER
The Tightness of the Buick Valve-in-Head motor and
not the enthusiasm of its salesmen has made the Buick
conspicuous for leadership.
This new four has a Buick Valve-in-Head motor (with
electric starter) which develops thirty-five horse power
on brake test and is so reliable for ruggtd service that no
eulogy is necessary among "men who know Buick."
Its lines are beautiful. . Finish and color are exception
al. Deep, tufted black genuine leather upholstery. Cov
ered floor and running board, with aluminum bindings,
give a trimness of appearance that is peculiarly Buick.
Body, hood, fenders and running gear are painted a
glossy, long-wearing black; wheels are black with white
stripes. Tires 31x4 inches.

The athlete accepted the wager and
made the trial, to find there were

after making twenty hops he had lost.
He paid up, but accused the other
of shart practise.
"Sharp practice!" was the retort
indignant. "Well I'll make the same
bet with you that I can do it."
The other expecting to win his
money back, assented. The officer
then hopped up forty steps in twenty
hops, and, hopping back one, finished
in the prescribed manner, and won
the wager.

before him. The old gentleman
glanced at the tract, and then looking

One night a traveler in the South
secured accommodations at the only

old negro. When bedtime came the
old darkey asked him to join in the
family prayers. So he knelt down
with the members ot the household
upon the hard puncheon floor. The
negro closed his eyes and threw his
head back and opened his mouth and
began. He began with Genesis and
worked gradually downward, and
prayed for twenty minutes without a
pause. The traveler's knees were
hurting him like the toothache and he
got desperate. He nudged the per

There was recently brought before
a police magistrate in the South an
old darkey who had fallen foul of a
bulldog while in the act of entering
the henhouse of the dog's owner.
"Didn't I Rive you ten days last
month for the same offense?" asked
the magistrate. "It was the same
henhouse you were trying to get into.
What have you got to say for your
self?"
The darkey seemed perplexed.
"Yo' honah." he said, "yo' sent me to
the chain gang fo tryin' to steal some
chickens, didn't yoo'?"
"Yes; that was the charge."
"An' don't de law say yo' can't be
charged twice with de same offense?"
"That no man shall be twice placed
in Jeopardy for the identical act yes."
"Den, yo' honah, youse gotta let
me go, suh. I was after de same
chickens, suh."
Willie came to his mother with an
expression of anxiety on his face.
"Ma," he said, "If a poor hungry
little boy was to come to the back
door and ask for something to eat,
would you give him that piece of pie
that was left over from dinner?"
"Yes, Willie, of course I would," said
the mother. Willie's face cleared.
"All right," he said, "Just wait a
minute till I run around to the back
door."
Two mothers--each with her bhild
visited the Chicago Art Museum.
As they passed the "Winged Victory"
the little boy exclaimed, "Huh!" She

she don't need none."

a benevolent smile.
