Is Sickness a Sin?
If not, it is wicked to neglect illness
and meHiis of relief. It is wicked to
endure liver ills, headache, indigestion,
constipation, when one dose of Po-Do-
Lax gives relief. Po-Do-Lax is l’odo-
phyllitt (May Apple,) without the
gripe. It arouses the liver, increases
the flaw of bile - nature’s antiseptic in
the bowels. Your constipation and
other ills disappear overnight, because
Po Do-Lax has helped nature to remove
the cause. Get a bottle (font your
druggist to-day. Get rid of your con-
•tipntion overnight.

Valve-in-Head
MOTOR
CARS
Power Accessibility
Dependability
Power in the motor car is seven-tenths of the time a dormant factor, but, when it is needed,
the most important of all others. Whenever power is needed the Buick Valve-in-Head motor is
the most efficient. No engineers or writers of recognized authority in either the United States
or foreign lands hesitate to admit this. The leading builders of motors for all purposes where
constant power is demanded, such as in the aeroplane, the submarine and marine engine, un
hesitatingly adopt the Valve-in-Head type.
The simple construction of the Buick Valve-i -Head motor makes all parts accessible. They are where hey
can be seen. No uncertainty or guess work, no complication of moving par s to make oiling a difficult problem.
The success of the Buick Valve-in-Head motor is due to the f ct that it is not an experiment, not an uncer
tainty. The Buick is a car of proven value and dependability; starting their fourteenth year.
You will eventually buy a Six, why not now? You can't get greater value anywhere in any car. Easy riding,
graceful in appearance and performance, durable and substantial.
