The Proper Course
Infoinintion of Priceless Ynltlo to
Every Medford Citizen
How to act In an emergency Is
knowledgo of inestimable worth, and
this Is particularly true of the disease
and Ills of the human body. If you
suffer with klndoy backache, urinary
disorders, or any form of kidney
troublo, tho advice contained In the
following statement should add to
a valuable asset to your store of
knowledge. What could be more
convincing proof of tho efficiency of
Donn's Kidney Pills than tho state
ment of a Medford citizen, who used
thein nnd who publicly tells of the
benefit derived?
Mrs. Mary Jones. 2US Trip St., ot
Medford, says: "I used to have so
much troublo with my back that
when I bent over, I had lo straighten
up by degrees. Sharp, shooting
pains often caught me across my kid
neys, and for a few minutes 1 eoulil
not breath. My kidneys wero also
Irregular In action. Since I have been
taking Dean's Kidney Pills. 1 don't
havo any trouble with my back and
my kidneys nro normal."

NO PEACE UNTIL
I'KTHOGUAD, JJee. t'U Discussing
the forthcoming reply to tho peace
proposals, the Kech suys:
"The officiul reply to the peace
proposals cannot .state that the en
tente allies uim to bring the Turkish
empire to un end in order to remove
forever German inms of world domin
ion, or that the ullies will demand
reorganization of Austria-Hungary,
in order to make impossibly the ful
fillment of Oeruiun .ideas regarding
central Europe which form the first
step of their program for world pow
er. Diplomacy cannot suggest these
teres until the allies have laid the
firm foundation for success of their
present niilitury tasks. Hut by say
ing loss, diplomacy would acknowl
edge a result of the war unsuccessful
for the ullies,
"Italy has not occupied Triest,
France has not located a film fron
tier along the Rhine, England lins not
destroyed the Oermun fleet nor have
the ullies us a whole .succeeded m
crippling the German laud force ; nnd
therefore there nro no guarantees for
the future in national relations which
will free the world from tho oppres
sion of mi)iturism."
Tho Rcch says that even if Ger
many should muko the unexpected
concession of relinquishing territor
ial gain and restoring nute-bellum
conditions, the aims of the ullies
would not be fulfilled and that the
onlv terms acceptable to Russia
would be those dictated by herself
and her ullies.

Have you tried out the NEW .
Hupmobile?
One question wc hear continually: "IIow do you
get such phenomenal performance from a four-cylinder
motor ? The answer is, we have developed what
practically amounts to a new type.
The Hupmobile motor has the rigidity of crank
shaft and camshaft and the lightness of pistons, con
necting rods, valves and valve tappets characteristic
of the racing motor. Tho carburation and ignition
are equal quality. It has same high quality materials
.ind workmanship of a racing motor, reduced to tour
ing ear practice.
In other words, we have the cylinder capacity and
the necessary refinements of detail for a motor of 70
to 80 horse power. As we do not require such great
power wc reduce the amount, of gas taken into the
cylinders at high speeds. This limits the power at
high speeds and increases it at low speeds. The re
sult is what wc might call a "restrained"' motor,
which gives you all that exhilerating sense of doing
its work easily and being able to do far more than
you will allow them to do.
And the "HUP" has more speed than you will
ever want to use. An absolutely standard five pas
senger "II UP" touring car nt Savannah, tia., re
cently made a measured mile, under stop watch, in
fifty-two and two-fifths seconds.
If you are in the market for a car, don't overlook
a good thing, but call at our place and be convinced
that the "llUP" is the best car in the world, within
its class.
How about the
Mitchell Six?
To those who prefer a six-cylinder car, they can
not do better than try out the new Mitchell. They
have'every thing beaten, in their class, for looks and
easy riding. The "llatc Cantilever" springs in the
rear, makes all rough roads look like pavement. No
shock absorbers necessary.
Thev have plenty of power and speed.
TheMITCHELL SIN, has never before advanced
so far, in a single season, and this at a time when'new
models are scarce. The extra value belongs to you;
it means more endurance, more safety and less up
,keep. It means the pinnacle of luxury, comfort and
convenience. . ,
Call and take a ride in The "MITCHELL" and
'you will be convinced
Last but not least in value
the Little
Dort
TIIK LITTLE DOK'T, is a four-cylinder, five passen
ger, highe powered, smooth running little wonder.
J las cantilever springs in the rear, no shock absorb
ers necessary, and makes all roads looke like pave
ment. High class equipment, with electric starter
and every convenience which makes a first class car.
. And the price is right. "
Buying a car is a business proposition
and you owe it to yourself to buy where you get your moneys worth. All we ask is a chance to prove to you, by
actual demonstration, that we have the best value in Automobiles, in the valley, and it will cost you nothing
to call at our place and see for yourself.
