Denatured Alcohol Is Ead Beverage. Government Will Label "Poison" Althougii we never had any doubts but what denatured alcohol Is a poi son, it seems that a lot of persons have tried to use It as a beverage with very serious results, such as doatb, total blindness, general physi cal decay and attendant Ills. The department of internal revenue through a recent bulletin says: "In view of the grave aud extended abuse of the use of completely denatured alcohol reported, it is deemed neces sary to print upon the label affixed to wholesale and retail packages a fur ther and more specific warning as to its use than is shown on the present required label. "In addition to the present matter on the labels, there will be required on all new labels hereafter, the print ing in large letters in red ink under the skull and cross-bones symbol, the word 'poison' and at the bottom ot the label there will be printed the following statement: "Completely denatured alcohol is a violent poison. It cannot be ap plied externally to human or animal tissue without seriously Injurious re sults. It cannot be taken internally without inducing blindness and gen- !eral physical decay, ultimately re sulting in death." OREGON STATE FAIR Salem, September 22-27.

The Greater Maxwell is now here It is not a New Maxwell. It is in fundamentals the worthy descendant of 300,000 Maxwells that grace the highways of the world. But before you set forth to look it over, let these facts sink into your mind: It is a magnificent feat in engineering and building to be able to add so many new features to a car which has had a $200,000,000 run. That sum represents the amount paid for the one model Maxwell to date. Stop and think what your dollar bought four years ago and what it buys now. About half. Then think what a rare bargain in value alone you're getting in this car. For no matter what price you pay you'll find difficulty in acquiring a car that will run longer, last longer and give you less trouble.
