BILIOUS CONDITION DIDN’T LAST LONG Man Took Black-Draught at Night and Got Up Next Morning Feeling Much Better. Soon Well. “I used to come home from town, or from a trip, and my head would ache, and I would have a little temperature,” says Mr. James B. Vaught cf Waynesburg, Ky. “My tongue would look brown, and I would have a bad taste in my mouth. “That night I would take a big dose of Black-Draught, and the next morning I would get up feeling so much better. After a few doses, I would be all right, my tongue clean, and a better taste. “Black-Draught is about all the medicine I use, for it seems to be about all I need. I am healthy and well, and I feel that Black-Draught will help to keep one that way.” Thedford's Black-Draught is a pure, mild, vegetable product of nature. It is made only of medicinal herbs and roots that have been carefully selected, and then scientifically combined in convenient, powdered form, in clean, up-to-date laboratories. Good for children, grown men and women, and those of advanced age. Manufacture of Thedford’s BlackDraught began in 1840, and many people tell of having taken it all their lives when in need of a laxative or cathartic. In 25-cent and SI.OO packages. Try it.

A STATEMENT TO THE PUBLIC IN THE INTEREST OF FAIR PLAY

Sincerely believing that where credit is dne, credit belongs, the Stutz Motor Car Cos., Inc., desires to announce that the Stutz - Special (racing car No. 8) which Tony Gulotta will drive in the 500mile race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway is not a Stutz product. <]f Basically, it is a Millerbuilt racing car—into which have been incorporated a number of very vital changes. These changes—and they are considered to be improvements—came from the hand and mind of the late Frank Lockhart, of our engineering department, who had expected to drive the Stutz Special in the 1928 race. <][The exact nature of these changes are as follows:

—the inter-cooler, a device first used by Frank Lockhart on which he had applied for patents—and now used by practically all racing cars. —supercharger and all gears. *—radius rods to supplement rear axle. —heavier axle shafts. —all intake manifolds. •—down draft carburetor believed to have been first used by Frank Lockhart. —steering gear supports. —oil control and control valve. —air scoop for carburetor.

Our interest in professional racing was entirely due to the fact that we wanted to enlist the genius and the ability of the late Frank Lockhart, realizing that his experience with the small, high efficiency engines would keep our organization fully alive to all the niceness of design and precision workmanship—with the idea that these qualities must inevitably reflect themselves in our everyday production. (|[We were certain that these highly stressed mechanisms held the secret to long life, SAFETY and smooth handling—and that the regular Stutz organization would be bettered by that knowledge. <J[ This knowledge is now reflecting itself in the greater care and and painstaking effort with which Stutz cars are produced and the desire for the attainment of an ideal which permeates our entire organization.

With the passing of Frank Lockhart, we withdraw from active racing—and Tony Gulotta’s car is designated Stutz Special because of our knowledge that it was the wish of Frank Lockhart —and the racer is not so named from any desire upon our part to sail under colors that rightfully belong to another.
