' "In the past ' automobiles have been developed along 'j two 1 widely separated lines. One has been to ward a cheap, light car. 'Economy and low first cost have been Its chief advantages. " The other trend has; been toward luxury, comfort and en-j durance at the expense' of low first cost and heavy maintenance expense. The Essex was built to combine the advantages of both these types. "The operation of the car is of the utmost simplicity, relieving the driv. er of the burden usually encountered on Ions tours: Srueh study has' been devoted . to - the making of mainte nance easy and the expense of up keep small. "In building the Essex, nothing has been sacrificed to mere apearance, the beauty of the car coming from In herent qualities of fine' workmanship and correct design, The motor al though only 29 Inches in length, de velops more than 50 horsepower, and in construction the car. . is strong enough to withstand the hardest ub . age.". .- , . -.- j , Stopped Congh After Influenza '' i "l want to say that Foley's Hbuey and Tar is the 'best congh medicine I ever tried," writes E.

In government there is no substi tute for Drains, no Buhatitute for vis- Ion, no substitute for leadership. That is the impressive lesson of the Sixty fifth congress, which passes into his tory today unwdpt and unhonored. ''."' ' At no other period of American history has the country been so near a complete breakdown of the legisla tive branch of the government. Noth ing else like it has been1 known un der the' constitution. To find a par-, allel we must go back to the political futilities of the confederation.- - - There are times in government when mediocrity is in itself a' crime, and the great offense. of the Sixty fifth congress was its hopeless medi ocrity, both in Its majority and ith minority factions. It is fair to say in extenuation that no other, congress was .ever charged with such vast du ties and such tremendous responsibil ities, but the magnitude of the task serves only to make-the character of the performance the more, pitiful. .'The lxty-tlfth- congress was com posed, for the most part, ' of "Irre proachably honest men, as that term is commonly- used. It was totally free from all the gross and shameful corruption of tho Civil war congresses when senators and representatives enriched themselves at the expense of the conn try .' It was likewise a' -patriotic congress,' lj Tlie Copperhead eie merit was so'small as to be negligible; On the whole, we think it was a con gress that wanted i.o do right.- Whore it failed was in lacking the capacity to do anything except as it was gulli ed and driven by the executive. In all the long record of war legis lation not a single measure of impor tance; military, financial or indus trial, originated with teongres3. '.All of them were suggested1 by the execu tive,, and many of them could never have been passed except under execu tive pressure'. .Congress not only con tributed nothing of value, but in most instances in -which independent I action was. undertaken its policies' medfoiw matt; tribttnti, CONSCRIPTION.
