HARRIS TO FIGHT EFFORT
TO REDUCE PEANUT TARIFF
WASHINGTON, November 28.
Senator W. J. Harris said he would
oppose any effort to lower the
tariff protection now given against
the importation of Oriental pea

vegetable oils are manufactured.
President Coolidge was urged to
prevent any effort to, destroy iho
protection under the present law
by Senator Harris, when he called

FOR WORKING PEOPLE
The best of workers get out of noris
when the liver fails to act. They feel
languid, half-sick, “blue” and discourager!
and think they are getting lazy. Neglect
of theSe symptoms might result in a sick
spell, therefore the sensible course is to
take a dose or two of Herbine. It is just
the medicine needed to purify the system
and restore the vim and ambition of
health. Price 60c. .Sold by

Why 60,000 Jewett Buyers
Bought a Husky Thrifty Six
EVERY Jewett Six owner had his chance to buy
some “light” six. He could have saved SIOO in
first cost; but he preferred the Jewett. Why?
The new Jewett Six is different from ‘ light” sixes
in many vital ways —principally in sturdiness of con
struction, and in ample power. See how well Jewett
Six is built. f
6-inch-deep frame is specially cross-braced. It is
rigid. A mighty foundation for car strengtli, safety
and comfort. Paige-Timken axles front and rear leave
no room for doubt as to long life and safety. Ball-bear
ing steering spindles neither wear nor rattle; make
driving a pleasure. All-steel universal joints have lu
brication sealed in. Springs are 80% of wheelbase.
Paige-type clutch and transmission make gear-shift
ing positive, quiet; rarely can you stall the motor or
jerk the car.
The 50 h.p. Paige-built motor is so big it fills the
hood! It is as big and as good as the motors in SISOO
cars —and it STAYS GOOD! First, because it is more
than able to handle the car; second, it has the hollow
crankshaft, high-pressure oiling system that sends 2
gallons of oil per minute through all main andconnect
ing rod bearings. Long life thousands of miles of
trouble-free, smooth, “peppy” performance—are
certain.
Do you blame Jewett buyers for preferring the new
Jewett Si x to any “light” six of less power, less strength,
shorter life? Let us show you the Jewett in action.
Drive it, yourself. Cali us any time! [an]
