It does not seem possible, in this age of fine cars and
keenest rivalry, that any car could be without com
petition.
And yet that is precisely what would be revealed if a
census of BUICK ownership could be taken.
Interview any fair minded BUICK owner anywhere and
you will find him utterly unwilling* to consider any
* other car.
There are something* like One Hundred Thousand BUICK
owners in the country, and when one of them tells
you that no consideration could tempt him to change,
he is merely voicing the mental attitude of the entire
one hundred thousand.
The BUICK is the FIRST and ONLY CAR to make a successful trip through the moun
tains and to Tallulah Falls, so the news comes over the wires.
♦
We have some of these cars in stock, and more coming. /

Woodruff Hardware Cos.
We dare say that no car in the world can point to as
many owners so unanimously loyal.
In view of these tacts, it surely behooves every thought
ful buyer to inquire into the extraordinary circum
stances which have so firmly entrenched the BUICK
in public approval.
A little investigation will reward you with the discovery
that no plant in the world is so well equipped to piQ
duce a car that will render undeviating service to its
owner for an indefinite period as is the BUICK plant.
This splendid equipment, you will find, manifests itself in
a degree of scientific accuracy and standardization
which has never been approached in the history of
the industry. v
CLOTHES AND THE MAN.
Good Appearance Waits Upon the Way
Garments Are Worn.
“You cau talk all you please about
clothes making a man." said a Walnut
street tailor, “but 1 want to say right
now that the smartest clothes In the
world can't make a man ‘natty’ if he
is not naturally so. There is an old,
stoop shouldered doctor uptown that
I have been tailoring for seven years
He buys four and sometimes five suits
a year, and yet, except for a few days
after he has broken in each new suit,
be never looks nice. The trousers bag
at the knees, the coat falls away In
front, and the shoulders begin to look
sloppy. The man's drooping figure
and the poor care lie takes of his
clothes furnish, of course, the explana
tion.
“I)ld you ever notice the average
college man’s clothes? Almost v i
variably he looks neat and correct
despite the easy swing with which he
walks. Hut you’ll notice that he car
ries his head high. Ills shoulders fail ly
erect, and his trousers never 'break'
at the slioes. so that the crease Is al
ways preserved. All classes of men
go to college—rich and poor. Few col
lege men take more than fair cure of
their clothes. It's all the wuy they
wear their clothes, I think. Notice the
young lawyers and doctors around
town too. Few of them can afford the
very best in tailor made clothes. That
they usually look nice Is due to the
fact that they have picked up the dis
tinguished way to wear clothes. 1
might call It. Clothes make the man.
but only when the man is willing to
help.”—Philadelphia lieeord.
1 An Old Machine.
The Tubingen Morgenblatt of Oct.
31, 1820. contains a description of such
a machine as then in use in the Lou
don coffee house. It was in the shape
of a tobacco Jar, which stood on the
table and had a slot into which a pen
ny had to he inserted to obtain a pipe
ful of tobacco. The weight of the coin
depressed a lever and released a lock.
The writer adds that a halfpenny
would not do the trick, and the would
be cheat could not recover his money.
