Letters of praise are continually coining In from nearly all parts of K country stating that Danderlne renewed the growth of hair In •cues that were considered abso lutely hopeless. A lady from Brooklyn writes: "After a sbert trial my hair stopped falling, and I now have a lovely bead of hair, T«ry heavy and over one and a quarter ytrd* long."

Mr. Yoakum Is free to admit thnt mlf- tnkes have been made hy the railroad and that some of the troubles of toda are the outcome of such mistakes. If also believes that the solution of th rallw'ay problem Is to Ik* found not In the antagonism of the people toward th' roads, but In the co-operation of th- people and the railway* through the fed eml government. The time has gone by when r J '■* “* 4 railroad could go ahead and per feet Its plans and carry them out with out consulting the people through who*.- territory It ran. he adds, and the busi ness of enlightened rill way munufers and of enlightened legislators Is to cor rect past mistakes, to make a repetition Impossible, and to arrive at a wotklnr basts where the road and tho communi ty can best serve each other with Jus lire to both. „ In an address I#efqre (ho fit. Loul* Truffle Club, Mr. Yoakum remarked that never In the history of our country lias there been n time when the masses of the people so wcli understood tho rein lion of the railroads to the public as a present, or ao will realised the dlffleul ties end hardship* to which thu road, aulilected Up to the Minute Arc Our AUTOMOBILES 1 Chalmers-Detroit “30” TEN YEARS AGO we would have sold you a steam automobile with all its trou bles, annoyances, its gasoline under high air pressure and a red hot fire burning under you in summer and a volume of white steam floating from under to scare country horses in winter; the chances of having all your eyebrows and whiskers, if you had any, singed off when you fired up in the m oming, and great luck if the thing didn’t burn up or blow up while you wore taking a pleasure ride. But, remember, that was ten years ago. We don’t sell steamers now. EIGHT YEARS AGO we would have sold you a single cylinder automobile, very good in its day and a good old plugger yet, but we are talking about automobiles. SIX YEARS AGO we would havo sold you a two cylinder with a chain drive with all of its noise and grease; its engine under the body and its nothing under tho hood. One of our customers insisted for some tlmo that his engine was under the hood, but not so, it was a handsome hood with nothing under it. Hoeverw, up-t-date at that time, but remember two cylinders were all right six years ago. FOUR YEARS AGO wo would have sold you a heavy four cylinder automobile, too_ heavy for its power, too heavy for its tires; depending entirely on dry cells for igni tion; however the best of its kind at that time and fairly satisfactory, and the same as many dealers are offering as up-to-date now. TV/O YEARS AGO we would havo sold you a four cylinder, each cast separately with five hearing crank shaft; just aboutwhat the majority of American manufactu rers are offering as up-to-date now, but OUR UP-TO-THE-MINUTE AUTOMOBILE is tho Chalmers-Detroit 30-horse power light car with great power for its weight with a record on November. 3, at Rochester, N. Y., (sworn to) of 24 1-2 miles to the gallon of gasoline for 200 miles. A four cylinder automobile with tho cylinders cast in one and a two-bearing crank shaft, just exactly tho same as December 10th issue of Motor Age will tell you, that (90) ninety per cent of tho light cars shown at the great European Automobile Show just closed at the Grand Palace in Paris, were constructed, so do not be misled by what the uninformed may say about the cylinders cast in one and the two-bearing crank shaft. Just rest assured that when (90) ninety per cent of the European man ufacturers adopt it or 9 out of 10 of their light cars are constructed in this way, it’s right and proper, and there is no better and you can well afford to ignore any free advice you may get to tho contrary. j Tho 25-milo record on our Macon mile trade, 28 minutes and 3 seconds; is the work of this samo Ohalmors-Detroit 30. THE SECOND 1909 MODEL CHALMERS-DETROIT 30 THE FACTORY FINISHED, After being run 6,000 miles in the Middle West, was on August 9th, put on a double daily run from Detroit to Pontiac, Michigan, and return, a total distance of 208 miles a day, every four days making 832 miles, which about equals the distance from Macon to Detroit. This car continued to make 832 miles ovory four days fo, a period of 100 days; 25 of the 832-milc trips without being laid up a single day for repairs, finishing its 20,800 miles on Nov. 17th, following tho exact schedule set out in tho beginning. This is a world’s record and should satisfy the most exact ing as to the durability and reliability of the “Ohalmers 30.” Wo have a demonstrating car waiting, so don’t take our word for it, but let ns show you its superiority. Chalmers-Detroit “40” Our Chalmers-Detroit 40, so well known in the past two years as Thomao-Detroit II 40 tliroughout the United States, by its great performances, has no superiors. |i It has been a great money-saver to wise buyers who, wanting tho best American II Automobile in the $3,000 to $5,000 class, havo, after giving all a fair trial, selected B| it, and have ever since had cause to congratulate themselves on their selection. || SHINHOLSER & CO.
