Jim Bingham is a great fellow and a still greater attorney general, because he admits it himself. While he has the distinction of being Indiana's attorney general for two years and up to date has no insignificant brew ers scalp dangling to his belt, yet he is going to have, you bet. He is going to put the whole dod-gasted business under the ban. He is going to eat 'em up Jake, just as soon as he gets warmed up. Two years for a warmer, think of It Why at this rate Jim will have to be elected for the next decade before he reaches that fire-eating heat that he can masticate even a blind tiger, like the Columbia club, let alone a real brewery.

To meet additional expenses he had for five years purloined small sums, aggregating in all less than SIO,OOO. Then he blew out his brains, leaving a letter confessing and explaining. One moral of this pathetic story is that man shou’d be paid enough to enable him to live in frugal comfort in a manner becoming his position. Th e president of

Live Agents Wanted n • „ to the increased demand for Wayne “30” 0W Automobiles, we have decided to build 300 additional cars of this popular type. These are now coming through— we can positively make deliveries of the first fiftv in ten days. Kow we can sell every one of these cars in four or five large cities-as we have been doing. But we have other ideas, other aims. We are planning to build 6,000 cars next y ear-have the facilities to do it-and the work is a ready under wav . That means we’ll need a large selling force—an agent in every town over 5,000. We want these 300 Wayne <<3o” cars to be the missionaries which will create a demand for the 6,000 we will build next year. See our point? We want to distribute this season’s output these 300 —over as much territory as possible instead of concentrating them in a few metropolitan centers. Satisfied users are the best advertisements—every Wayne will do its part in carrying the news of Wayne quality wherever it goes. Even to those who knew die earlier Wayne models this 1908 product will be a revelation and a delight. We want a personal representative— a man of good standing—to represent us in your town. Large capital is not necessary—neither is a garage nor repair shop. Very little capital, but a large amount of energy and selling ability, are the requisites —to the man who possesses these, here is an opportunity of a lifetime to get in business for himself—one that has a wonderful future. Write today; send references ; tell us about yourself; if satisfactory, we will get together quickly. We won’t hold you up on deliveries and we’ll stand back of the product —remember, we count on these 300 to sell 6,000; there’s the buyer’s guarantee —and yours. Now is the selling season—today. Business has been great since the sun came out —if you don’t share in the hay-making, it’s your own fault. Write —now! _ J __ W/jtf—— ' 7 WAYNE “30” Price $2,500 —“all but the license” Win. ■»“—3o H.
