lu the land of Mexico —the land of revolution —of fierce loves and fiercer 1 hates—is the scene of this thrilling romance of real life in that wonderful region below the Rio Grande. Through the rapidly shifting pictures —punctuated with hair-raising incident—there moves the masterful figure of “The Outlaw" —a fine soldierly type, for the play is drawn from ,a tragedy of the early life of a famous Mexican general when he was chief of a band that formed the beginning of the rebel army. There is much that is grim and tense in this splendid picture-story—but it is softened by little touches of sentiment that gave it added interest anif charm. There are tremendous battle scenes with real Mexican soldiers. And the stirring events that had to do with “the dawn of a new republic” are pictured <ith startling vividness, for they were uot only taken in Mexico, but the camera man actually risked his life on the firing line that he might get some real scenes of terrific fighting in the field and in the trenches. "The Outlaw” is well acted by a carefully chosen company. Moreover, it is educational, for it tells the “truth about Mexico,” and the actual conditions in that ton? and distracted nati.on. Every member of your family will enjoy it—probably you will recall having seen it. »

i TO THOSE INTERESTED IN REAL ESTATE LOANS. Dear Friends: — A short time ago we wrote you that there comes a time to a man when it is necessary for him to borrow money. Obligations that he finds It wise to group in one place—improvements that he finds it necessary to make—improvements that he is not forced to make, but honest ambition leads him on to do—additional acres that he wants to purchase. Perhaps the farm he owns is too small, he has lang had bis eye upon a larger one, ope better suited to his needs and serength. Or, perhaps, an adjoining farm that he has desired for a long time. To you with these thoughts in mind we are writing this letter. We believe we can help you satisfactorily. We are sure we can SAVE you money. If you have It in your mind to do these things and you have made up your mind to borrow some money, then the very next thing that you think is, "Where can I do the best?’’ "Where can I get what I want and get it at the best possible advantage to me?” Now, if you will come into our office and talk to Mr. Schirmeyer or Mr. Quinn they will show you that your wants can be taken care of in

■r 0@ (B . ‘"g r ' < ' iOS I I IN the earlier days of the automobile industry, wealth and social position traveled almost exclusively in the car which bore a foreign maker’s name. ■ i But times have changed — standards of value have changed —personal view points have changed. People of wealth and social position still insist upon luxury and elegance in their motor cars. But, now, they also demand at least a fair return upon their motor car investment. It is for this reason that the Paige, Fairfield ‘ Six-46 has been so universally adopted by well-to-do people in all sections of the nation. In beauty of line and design, this car rivals the most artistic productions of Europe. It is refreshingly distinctive, and embodies every convenience and luxury that a critical motorist could desire. It is a big car, a powerful car. a comfortable car —and, withal, an economical car. It is literally and actually “the standard of Value and Quality.” • * * The price—complete —is $1295.
