IT HAPPENED IN BAINBRIDCE And is Happening to Bain- bridge people every day in the week. The case told below is not an uncommon thing. The same oc- frequently and will continue to happen as long folks have kid neys and overtax the kidneys. W. 0. Charlton, 225 Academy St.. Bainbridge, says: "My back so sore and lame that I could hardly sleep. In the mortfing, my back was stiff, 1 felt tired and languid and could not bend over or lift anything. I was getting worse each day. Plasters and liniments didn’t help fne, but two boxes of Doan’s Kidney Pills made a permanent cure.” Price 50c, at all dealers.

Howard, head of the Howard Automobile Company California distributer of the Butck line and who won several trophies with the Buick cars in the early days of automobile racing on the Coast, picked up the record-breakers at San Mateo and piloted them into the city. Naturally he was most enthusi astic over the splendid record made by t the car and said the performance easily demonstrates the remarkable strides made in automobile construction within the past few years. “Bob" Thompson, Howard’s chief aid. was also at the finish and, like Howard, was as proud as a pea cock over the fine showing of the car. The details of the intercity run are best told by Joe Nikrent in the following fashion: “We were checked out at Los Angeles by George'A. Lawrence of the Western Union Telegraph Company, and left the North Broadway bridge at exactly 8 P. M. We followed the regular Los Angeles-San Francisco route and I made first thirty-three miles to Saugus in 41 minutes. We reached Bakersfield, 123 miles distant, most of which going was in the mountains, in 3 hours and 35 minutes, Fresno, 235 miles, was made in 6 hours and 5 minutes, and the finish in San Francisco, 457 miles, was made in 10 hours and 47 minutes. “The starting and ending points for the Los Angeles record are the Broadway bridge, Los Angeles, and Guerrero and Market streets in San Francisco. Inasmuch as we were using the inland route, which ordinarily enters San Francisco by wav of the Creek Route boat, we thought it a saving of time to detour kt Livermore and finish our run by way of Mission San Jose, Warm Springs, Milpitas, Alviso Moun tain View, Redwood City and San Mateo. This route was many miles longer, but we thought it faster than waiting for ferry connections. WORST ROADS ENCOUNTERED “The worst roads were en countered between Delano and Goshen Junction. There is a stretch of about forty miles be tween these two points that is very rough at this time. The most difficult driving was the twenty-nine miles that is known the Ridge Route between Saugus and Bakersfield; as the name indicates, this route follows the very top of the mountains, and while it will eventually be paved with concrete, it is simply graded at this time and not in condition for fast speed. ‘‘We were delayed by en countering a heavy fog at the western enterance to Altamorit pass, and .had this foggy condi tion to contend with clear into San Francisco, a distance of about eighty miles. We were also delayed some by encountering a band of about 2000 sheep on the road near Tracy. Without doubt the hardest strain that the car was put to on the entire trip was encountered at practically the finish line. We were making good time on the highway near Redwood City, when without any warning we Los Angeles-San Francisco Record by BUCK BEATS THE (TRAIN) BY 3 HOURS BEATS FORMER RECORD 1 HOUR 23 MINUTES 457 MILES IN 10 HOURS 47 MINUTES MAN HAS NEVER BEFORE TRAVELED AS FAST BETWEEN THESE 2 CITIES The Buick left Los Angeles Mon. night at 8 o’clock and arrived in SanFrancisc Tues. morning at 6'47 o’clock (this time is official) Most Marvelous Road Record in Motor Car History The car used was a regular stock Touring Car, Model D 6-45, which sells on the Coast at $1170. All former record holders were much larger and higher priced cars. Another Remarkable Demonstration of Buick Speed, Power, Endurance and Reliability The extraordinary time made by the Buick Six up the long hard grades, over rough mountain passes, fording streams and racing over miles of desolute des ert in its intercity dash was no surprise to us. We knew that the Buick valve in head motor was capable of driving the car at a continued speed of more than sixty miles per hour when calledupon. Wealso knew that the Buiok chassis, notwithstanding tire continued heavy hammering over rough roads at unusual speed, would be in the same perfect condition at the finish as at the start. By this remarkable performance we have demonstrated to the public the superiority of Buick construction.
