GREEN OLD AGE
Assured by the Occasional Use of "Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills.
To reach a green old age and enjoy good health can only be obtained by the care of the system. It is from the little irregularities of the system that the common ailments arise, and nature gives many indications of the approach of these complaints which, if treated at once, may be warded off. Growing old ought not to mean growing weak and feeble. It does not mean weakness or feebleness for those wha eat with a good appetite and sound digestion." It is of the utmost importance that old people should retain the power to digest and assimilate food, which is the " sole source of physical strength. When age brings feebleness, it is generally because of the failure to assimilate the nutrition contained in food. To those in declining years who find that Nature responds less readily to the demands made upon her, and who need a mild yet searching remedy to keep their system in proper working order, there is nothing like Dr. Morse's Indian Root Pills.
They are a) perfect Blond Purifier and a; positive and permanent care for BilicusneRK, Indigestion. Constipation, Headaches Sallow Com- plexion, Liver Kidney

CHALMERS
A Hot Spot Chalmers Holds Every Drop of Gas to Account

It takes gas to move weight. And in a car like the Hot Spot Chalmers, which is 300 pounds above the "light-weight" class and 300 pounds under the "heavy-weight" class, gas .. has more than passing attention.
The trick is to move this weight at the minimun effort. Therefore, the Hot Spot and Ram's-horn play a great part in the Chalmers:

Hot Spot holds every drop of gas ".. It "cracks up" into a dry vapor powder" the raw gas just as the gas enters the Ram's-horn and the latter dispatches the "pulverized" fuel to the cylinders with lightning-like rapidity.
The result is that when the spark plugs "touch it off" every drop (finer by far than the naked eye can detect) turns itself into power de luxe.'
And remember
There's little waste well nigh none. that this, Hot Spot engine of the Chalmers is the most modern automobile engine of the day.
