Of course the author assured the manager that he had a little something on his English brothers of the operatic craft but admitted that the general style of his piece might be said to follow rather closely the pattern set by the creators of The Mikado. But nowadays the producing manager has added a new word to his vocabulary and the first question he puts to the trembling, though self assured, young neophyte of The Drama is whether the piece is of the "Viennese" type or not. Now there may be some question as to just what this really means but to avoid all possible quibbling along this line the authors of the Hermit Club's play this year have seized the dilemma by the horns and settled the matter once for all-This is a real Viennese opera-Why? Because the scenes of the play are laid in Vienna. And so having settled that momentous problem we pass on to the Synopsis. Be it known that this latter word is really a misnomer for literally it means a sight of the sun when everybody in Cleveland knows that during this particular week it is a time for a sight of the Stars. But in this Program we use the word in its figurative sense and so it becomes a key with which you may unlock the plot. 28 The Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company of Newark, New Jersey :: :: $22,000,000 of our 1913 new business was on the lives of persons already holding poli- cies of this Company.

PICKARD, Jr. Superintendent of Agencies New England Building CLEVELAND ENDOWMENT POLICIES AT LIFE RATES 29 THE HERMITS IN VIENNA SYNOPSIS-CONTINUED ACT I When the curtain rises we find that the Countess Von Bereny is giving a Tango breakfast at her Villa, in honor of her niece Rosalie. It is the intention of the Count Von Bereny to accompany his wife to Carlsbad that afternoon but the arrival of his old friend Max Tokay breaks in upon his plans. A big Tango contest is to be held that same night at the Cafe Budapest, a giddy cafe on the outskirts of Vienna, and it is finally decided that the Count must play a little deception upon his wife in order that he may attend the alluring function. The Countess wants to marry her niece Rosalie to Baron Puppchen and when that fussy old gentleman invites the two ladies to go to the Cafe Budapest with him to see the tango contest it is agreed that they will accept his offer provided the Count is kept in ignorance of their plans. To that end, Richter, the butler, and Tilly, the maid, are ad- vised that both the Count and Countess are going out of the City and when two tickets for the contest come into the possession of the ser- vants they decide to go clothed in the title and raiment of the master and the mistress. Capt. Czardis is in love with Rosalie and presents her with an old Marquise ring but his suit for her hand does not meet with the approval of the Aunt and Uncle so the ring is returned and before it finally comes into Rosalie's possession again it has a rather long checkered journey. To add to the complications, which have been piling up, Celestine, 30 SK The Man Who Owns One, sums up a high A ideal and its achievement. The founders of the Packard Motor Car Com- pany have worked with the steadfast purpose of designing and perfecting a motor carriage, such as they them- selves would wish to drive-a vehicle that would answer the demand for a smart town equipage and one that would enable their families to tour with safety and enjoyment. In the Packard "2-38" six-cylinder car, more than ever before, has this purpose been realized. Shipments of the new model began last fall. In the face of winter driving conditions, the "2-38" has established a record for sales commensurate with its unequaled performance on the road. The comments of owners place this car in a class by itself. ASK THE MAN WHO OWNS ONE 31 THE HERMITS IN VIENNA SYNOPSIS-CONTINU a pretty little French dancer who has been giving the Count tango lessons on the Q. T., and Herr Pickelsnitz, a celebrated dancing master, who has been teaching the Countess to dance the new dances, come to the Von Bereny's as guests. A floor polisher, Adolphus Spig- got, also comes upon the scene and by a freak of chance is mistaken for the dancing master. The act ends with the Count and Max, leaving, ostensibly, for the City of Budapest. ACT II The curtain rises on a group of guests dining on the terrace of the Cafe Budapest. Capt. Czardis looks on and sings of the beauti- ful river that flows near by. Richter and Tilly arrive first and plan an elaborate repast. They are closely followed by the Count and Max. Baron Puppchen, Pauline and Rosalie arrive shortly and to the cha- grin of the Countess, Capt. Czardis attaches himself to their party. The Marquise ring bobs up again in this act and threatens to cause a rupture between Czardis and Rosalie but later all is explained satis- factorily to the lovers. Of course the Count and his wife encounter the culprits Richter and Tilly later and a strenuous scene ensues but matters are soon adjusted amicably. The Tango Contest is announced and all the characters are soon brought together in the finale. 32 FEED YOUR CAR BETTER OIL AND LESS OF IT The better the oil, the less you need to use. In fact, it's easy to use too much of a good oil. About the only complaint we get of Polarine is from the man who regularly gives his car twice too much of it. Polarine is a clean, carbon-free lubricant, that is stable at high tem- perature and feeds freely down to zero. Polarine in your crank-case and + RED CROWN GASOLINE in your tank is a guarantee of maximum motoring pleasure. It pays to be particular about gasoline. Red Crown is the trade name for the cleanest, purest motor fuel that can be refined from selected crudes. Our tank wagon service will deliver regular supplies right to your garage. If you buy gasoline from the garage man, be sure to ask for Red Crown, and when you ask for Polarine, be sure you get it. Better buy it in the orig- inal lithographed cans.

The man who builds his home of Brick always has a de- pendable asset. Burned-Clay, and that is what a brick is- being practically indestructible, does not deteriorate and cannot be consumed by fire. The difference in original cost of the Wooden house and the Brick house is so slight that all who give serious thought to the question must decide for the Permanent home instead of the dangerously temporary one.

"There was a first class show at the Opera House last night. It was called 'The Hermits' Pilgrimage and was given by the Hermit Club of Cleveland, an organization composed of professional actors and musicians and amateur business men. Popular prices prevailed, namely, ten, twenty and thirty cents and the show was well worth the money especially as very few of the twenty and thirty cent seats were taken."-Medina Observer. "The Grand Theater was ablaze with lights Saturday night for "The Hermits' Pilgrimage.' Some of the show was funny especially the Dutch blend dialect of Al Davis who easily rivaled Rogers and Field or the Weber Brothers in their qualmy days. As we said, some of it was funny and then again some of it was well, every dog has some fleas."-Berea Advocate. "We went to the Academy of Music last night expecting to see something unusual and we did. The show was 'The Hermits' Pil- grimage.' We had to laugh a lot of times, and we confess to a feel- ing of genuine pleasure as we watched the curtain descend on the final act.

Rye Whiskies have now eclipsed all other American varieties owing to the achieve- ments of The Large Distilling Co., Pittsburgh, Pa., who won the Grand Prix, thereby adding to their triumphs at previous European Exhibitions. They now hold the record for more Grand Prix distinctions than any other American distill- ing concern for pure genuine unalloyed straight Rye Whiskey. The bestowal of the supreme distinction is not only given on quality, but after careful scrutiny of the questionnaire by the jury, wherein is recorded previous distinctions and full details as to the process of distillation, maturation, hygienic conditions, conditions under which the Whiskey is produced, size of plant, general equip- ment, capital, output, &c. The interesting fact is also on record that Large Whiskey has been dis- tilled continuously in the valley of the Monon- gahela, close to Pittsburgh, for 117 years.

Faust, a Customer El Shino, a Bootblack Place-Any Place Time-Any Time .C. F. Morse .F. J. Dresser .H. N. Herriman E. L. Worthington Scene-Any Barber Shop SYNOPSIS OF THE OPERA The curtain rises upon a scene exquisite in beauty and wonderful in realism, disclosing the interior of the luxurious tonsorial studio of Barbiere Siviglia, master barber. There are discovered, Barbiere himself standing gracefully at the side of his well beloved swivel chair, and El Shino, the champion boot-black, industriously practicing his art at his stand in a corner of the studio. Into this scene of tran- quillity and splendor enters Marguerite, the Manicure. The move- ment quickens and Marguerite has a passage revealing her assiduity in seeking her fugitive suitor, whom she has loved not wisely but too well, and disclosing the fact that she has committed the embarrassing indiscretion of bearing him a child out of wedlock. Thereupon she prepares for her duties of the day as resident manicure in the estab- lishment of Barbiere. Presently there enters a customer, John D. Faust, who, in an imposing aria, demands a shave and explains that he has to catch a train. Barbiere bids him make haste to climb within the chair and in a spirited solo prepares for the operation. As he spreads the cloth he bids El Shino to furbish up the customer's shoes and then inquires of the customer if he desires the services of a mani- cure. The customer assents and Barbiere directs Marguerite to ply her trade. As Marguerite takes the hand of John D. Faust within her own, he recognizes the touch and rising quickly, confronts his sweet- heart of other days. In a soul stirring duet he tells her how he has long sought for her in vain while she confides to him the story of her sorrow and the fact that they have a son.

And we use more plies and use the finest rubber. Hand Built: Expert tire men build Marathons by hand-very slowly. That cuts our profit, but it insures perfect construction. Heaped-up Tread: Note how we concentrate the tread. We put the rubber where the wear comes. That's an exclusive Marathon feature and increases wear efficiency. One Cure in Open Steam: By our special wrapped tread process gives unitized construction; makes all parts one. 4,000 Miles: Every Marathon is factory-insured 4,000 miles-and adjustment is made on that basis.

And when the author stops to consider the class of people this book is likely to reach he begs to call particular attention to the chapters on PROPER COSTUMES FOR EVERY OCCASION and DEPORTMENT ON DECK. A knowledge of History, a smattering of some foreign tongue, a receptive mind and temperate habits all add to the pleasure of one's companions, but they, of course, may be left to the individual taste of the traveller. Assuming, therefore, that the readers of this book will have none of these little frills, the author submits this here guide, R. R. time-table and ad for smart shops and hotels, and hopes that its advice and suggestions will be useful. Don't go at all. A FEW DON'TS Don't lose your nerve in the presence of cabmen, waiters and other royalties. Don't over-tip-remember that ten cents is a million dollars. Don't drink water-they keep it polluted on purpose-buy wine. Don't think you should worry if the captain says the ship is sink- ing-it doesn't belong to you. Don't tell a beggar you will give him something on your return— they lose a good deal of money giving credit in that way. FUNDS It will be found almost necessary to carry a little pin money or loose change concealed about the person. The exact amount may be determined before leaving and depends on whether one is going to travel with a Cook's tour or go on one's own hook. A careful perusal of the prospectuses would indicate that one can travel with a person- ally conducted tour at practically no expense at all, but some people do not believe this and prefer to choose their own trees to sleep in; in which case the daily expenses may run as high as 6000 yen or $2.80 per day. LETTERS OF CREDIT are issued by drug stores to some people, those with money to pay for them being preferred. They are a very handy way to lose money in large quantities. AMERICAN EXPRESS CHECKS are a convenient way to carry funds. They are issued in amounts of 25, 50, 75 or $1.00, and 186 "Nobby Tread" Tires are now sold under our regular warranty-perfect workmanship and material-BUT any adjustment is on a basis of 5,000 Miles "Nobby Tread" Tires are the largest selling high- grade anti-skid tires in the world.

Superior Ave. and Addison Rd. The Hollenden 189 are useful when starting something after the bank is closed or on Sun- days where there is no blind beggar to rob. The traveller will hardly ever find himself in this predicament, however. All real money should be carried in a chamois pocket, which can be worn down the neck or sewed to the lining of the pantaloon. This may be a trifle inconvenient but in fishing around for a kopec or two one can remember with satisfaction that it is just as troublesome to a pickpocket as yourself. Experienced travellers often carry a little Confederate or Mexican money in a handy place. When robbed of this one can enjoy a hearty laugh at the discomfiture of the thief. CLOTHES An excellent system, strongly recommended by the author, is not to carry luggage but to throw things away after they have been worn a week or two and buy new. In this way one's things are almost always fresh, whether they fit or not. Care must be taken not to forget and throw one's things away on Sunday, in which case it is necessary to send someone from the hotel to replenish one's ward- robe. For those who wish to appear affluent, a number of boxes may be taken for the collection of foreign labels. Room not taken up by clothes may be filled with hay. Toilet articles, spare jewelry, guide books, left-over fruit and clothes for the laundry may be carried in an ordinary market basket which may be slung from the shoulder by a heavy rope. This leaves the hands free for wraps, umbrellas, lunch and poking people out of the way. LIFE ON SHIPBOARD On going on shipboard it is best to find the bath steward imme- diately and cross his palm with silver. In this case he may let you have a bath if you want one. This of course depends on the newness and style of your bath robe. Next the deck steward should be sought out and his palm crossed with gold. If you have given him more than anybody else he may put your chair in a good sheltered place where people won't step on your feet when you are trying to sleep. Then find the table steward and give him the balance of your money. If he has slept well he will assign you seats near the entrance where a hasty exit can be made when necessary, otherwise he may put you near the kitchen door. These seats are interesting, however; waiters bringing in soup on rough days give a delightful imitation of the Fountains at Versailles. If you have a particularly good box of cigars with you, present it to the captain and request him not to wreck the ship unless your_mother-in-law is along, in which case you won't care. The week on shipboard will pass all too quickly unless it is rough and one is troubled with mal demer. Excellent remedies for this are putting cotton in one's ears, repeating the Lord's Prayer backwards. wearing a mustard plaster where it will do the most good, and swear- ing; but if these are not sufficient it is wise to retire to one's berth and yell for help. Pleasant days may be spent on deck, gossiping about fellow passengers, playing anagrams and backgammon, and watching the porpoises. Other interesting amusements are eating, watching 190 Berblain toy THE CLUB COCKTAILS The Club TRADE MARK MANHATTAN Cocktails Prepared & Bottled by G.

CLEVELAND, O. DOUANE 田 ​SWH somebody fall overboard and get drowned, throwing overdue fruit at the steerage passengers and betting on coon up or down. These may be varied by stretching a rope across the deck and taking turns at tripping up cripples. This causes much merriment and promotes a feeling of companionship. Don't fail to take with you a box of candy to present to the prettiest girl on board, and a kodak to take pictures of retiring or indisposed passengers. Crack jokes. Introduce yourself to everybody and introduce other people, you will soon find that peo- ple will begin to take notice of you, and it will add greatly to the pleasure of your voyage, if you live. Eat all you can, it is free, and you will find it more economical in case you make yourself so sick you can't eat for a week after you land. The custom of giving tips is no longer considered in good taste. Some try to do it on the sly, but these are invariably the vulgar rich. The stewards seem determined to stamp out this practice and offen- ders are reported to the captain and cast into irons or thrown over- board. The worst offenders are saved until a school of sharks is neared. This makes an interesting sight, particularly if the traveller is on his maiden voyage. Of course the distribution of five dollar bills is countenanced as you near Liverpill but one should not try to give to every member of the crew. Some of the large liners carry a crew of 1000 and you will find that only about two or three hundred have been able to notice you at all. Most of these will be waiting at the gang plank or on the dock, but some, more diffident by nature, will have to be dragged out of the coal hole to receive their money. It is a kind act, and relieves embarrassment, when pressing greenbacks upon them, to say that it is a little contribution to the Seamen's Aid Society, and request them to forward it for you. THE CUSTOMS OF THE COUNTRY The customs department is maintained to furnish employment to a lot of fussy individuals and thereby prevent their becoming lawyers, insurance men, etc.; that is to say, it collects most of the pests in one place, where they only annoy the foreigner, which is as it should be. On approaching the frontier the trunks are taken from the train and wheeled into the Douane or Dogonit. Before entering, kiss your family or friends all around in case you have any intention of doing so during the remainder of the day, as you may not want to afterwards, if you are at all inclined to be moody. Enter the custom house with a gay and confident manner, approach the official with the most feathers or whiskers, and help him open your luggage and stir up your clothes. It is an amusing game sometimes to see who can paw over them the most, and if one seizes a broom handle or pickaxe the victory is soon won. Only those who have done so can understand with what relish this game can be played when the trunk belongs to your mother-in-law. Sometimes even these little formalities are done away, and if it is a hot day the boxes are wheeled through the Douane and put back on the train without looking. In this case the officials expect some- thing, so bestow a couple of swift kicks on the smallest one and hurry away from there. 193 194 FOUR FEATURES FOUND IN NO-RIM-CUT TIRES ALONE Other tires-all of them-lack the four Goodyear features. And these are the four major factors in tire mileage. OUR NO-RIM-CUT feature, which completely ends rim- cutting. No other satisfactory method is known. OUR "ON-AIR" CURE, which saves the blowouts due to wrinkled fabric. This one extra process adds to our tire cost $450,000 yearly. OUR RUBBER RIVETS, of which we form hundreds in every tire-during vulcanization-to combat loose threads. OUR ALL-WEATHER TREAD-tough, double-thick and enduring. As smooth riding as a plain tread, yet grasping wet roads with sharp, resistless grips. Thus your four greatest tire troubles are met in these tires, in costly ways employed by no other maker.

Detroit The HUDSON Leads All Other "Sixes" The strongest advocates of the Fours admit that the Sixes lead. And the HUDSON stands head and shoulders above all other Sixes. The highest recommendation a salesman for other Sixes knows is: "It's as good as a HUDSON." The HUDSON Six is the standard by which other makers measure their motors, their body designs, their prices. The HUDSON First Choice If price, and old car allowance, and other conditions were equal, every buyer would choose a HUDSON Six. The HUDSON is always the first choice. If we would sell a HUDSON at a "cut price"; or if we offered a big "trading value" for an old car; or if we "threw in" a lot of extra equipment, every man who enters our showrooms would take the HUDSON. Come, see these modern motor cars. Drive a HUDSON Six and learn why the HUDSON leads. We'll allow you full market value for your old car if you have one. We will give you an entirely new meaning of motor-car satisfaction. Joseph H. Greenwald DISTRIBUTOR 6504 Euclid Ave. East 2580 197 Hand luggage in your compartment is not subjected to as rigor- ous an examination as this. Take a pack of Fatima cigarettes to smoke so the officials will not linger any longer than they can help. When they approach one will tip his hat and say politely, "Allerver- damtiger, by yiminy, was makst du hier already?" You must shake your head and answer "Nix," and at this they will know you are a foreigner and traveling for pleasure, and have no opium or foodstuffs concealed between your shirts. Some countries prohibit the importa- tion of matches and liquor but trouble may be avoided by confining your travels to Siberia or Patagonia where there are no such absurd restrictions. Dogs are not permitted to be taken into England. It therefore behooves the traveller to look as human as possible, unless one is provided with a Pass Sport or pedigree. The author remem- bers with chagrin spending six months in the pound on the occasion of his first visit. MUSEUMS It will be found necessary to visit a number of galleries and cathe- drals in order to tell people that you have been there. In case the traveller is in the butcher business and accustomed to refrigerators, he may enjoy the experience, otherwise he had better wear his ear muffs and hurry it up. Always engage the services of a guide, if possible. Choose him for his speed. Find out what his previous record is, and offer him an extra pourboire if he beats it. If he stops to describe anything in his native tongue do not pay any attention to him as he may be wrong anyway, but wag your head knowingly and point to the next room. Cathedrals are dangerous to visit during union hours on account of reconstruction going on. They are covered with scaffolding both inside and out and there is much danger from falling mortar and brick, to say nothing of the noise. It is best to take one's position at the door, just inside the beggar belt, and observe from there, but do not risk your life to get a nearer view of a pink or blue plaster statue of St. Swithin. You may not like it, anyway. The exterior architecture is sometimes very beautiful, and may be best observed from a nearby sidewalk cafe. In visiting museums wear your heaviest clothes and take an um- brella to poke at things. Always carry a lantern as the rooms are very dark except during the lunch hour, when you are not there. In some you will find opportunities to pick up souvenirs which may be carried away in the pocket or kodac case. Uninformed attendants are provided to help you carry out larger articles such as statues or stone settees. In case you do not like the atmosphere, smoke your pipe; you will find statuary conveniently provided for you to scratch matches on. Galleries are annoyingly numerous, but cannot be avoided; visit them the first thing in the morning and get it over with so that you will have the entire day to look in shop windows and explore rath- kellers. Take either one of your guide books and a pencil, stand in front of the largest picture in each room and exhale three or four times, but not too quietly, so people may know you are an art lover. In case your guide book happens to be for that particular gallery, do 198 6% with Unquestionable Safety T is hard to conceive a better investment IT than that afforded by first-mortgage bonds on Sixth City business-property-six per cent with safety.

That would be a Fox Pass. These will be Old Masters, mostly dingy and uninteresting, so you can check them off with your pencil and get through very quickly. Nice prints of them can be obtained from the Sunday Supplements, but it is best to buy postal cards everywhere you go. Post card collections are very nice to have, although not of the slightest interest to anybody, but will be found handy to get rid of undesirable guests who have come to spend the evening. HOTELS Hotels are mostly delightful in case you do not want the best rooms nor object to paying twice the usual tariff. On arriving at a town you will find a great many busses backed up at the station plat- form and you will be surrounded by a horde of porters who are will- ing to assume the responsibility of taking charge of your luggage. Do not show any preference, you may offend someone, but wait until the fight is over, when the largest porter will be seen to have posses- sion of any of your luggage that is worth saving. He will bear you off in triumph and pack you away in the bus with the remains of your things planted on your feet and you will be driven to the hotel which is usually right next door. In Europe it is no crime to live next to the R. R. Station, the principal hotel, the museum and noodle works will usually be found close by. This makes it handy for travellers who are only staying in town for lunch. At least thirty servants will be lined up to receive you in style; in case there are not this many send in for them; you will notice, however, that they will all be present when you escape. The concierge, a large man far gone in whiskers and brass but- tons, will size up your luggage and decide what room you are to have. It is best to show dissatisfaction and ask to see others, whereupon you will be shown several inside rooms in the basement. Then you can take the one originally allotted you with a feeling that you have shown them that you are a particular guest. They may consider you a nuisance and not hound you with attention which will add to the comfort of your stay. Some hotels advertise a lift or ascenseur if the proprietor has a sense of humor, but do not risk your life by taking it in case you happen to be around at the time of its daily trip. You will be shown to your room up and down many flights of stairs and through long dark passages. Carry a piece of chalk in your pocket and blaze a trail so you can find your way out again. Do not be annoyed at the specimens of furniture in your room; they will either be dilapidated or of the Early North German Lloyd period, or else elaborate and massive or the Late Pullman style. It will undoubtedly be carven, probably done by some local wood pecker. Get the idea that things are quaint and test them before using and if your bed does not collapse you will find it quite comfortable, unless you have the misfortune to be in Germany in cold weather. For coverings on your bed they will give you a mammoth feather pillow three feet thick and weighing a ton. This will keep you plenty warm enough except your shoulders and most of your legs, unless 200 W. H. TEMBLETT Landscape Architect and Forester 163 Hower Avenue EAST CLEVELAND TEL.

This treatment will be found quite beneficial by those of the elephant brand. Some hotels advertise central heating, which means a base burner in the office, but the traveller must beware of a hotel that claims to have any heat at all, as you can tell right at the start that the pro- prietor is dishonest. For amusement on a rainy day get your laundry out and try to list the various articles on the printed slip they will give you. After you have tried this for a while get a menu or a wine card and see if you can check your things off on either of them. Offer a prize to any member of your party who will find a place to list anything. Breakfast will of course be served in your room. Order it the minute you are up so that your chances of getting it during the morn- ing will be better. Sometimes the service is quite prompt and then you can hide in the closet or under the bed while the waiter brings it in. This will give him an opportunity to select any articles of jewelry he may fancy. The continental breakfast consists of a cup of coffee that you can't drink and a couple of yesterday's rolls. If our trav- eller relishes something a little more hearty he may order eggs or strained honey, but do not order eggs in Italy unless you are looking for weird experiences. Luncheon and dinner will be served table d'hote, and it is best to take it for many reasons, principally because you can preserve your self-respect with the waiter. Anyone ordering a special dinner gets exactly the same things under assumed names at six times the usual price. You will find the food quite good unless you get tired of having the same things every day. În case you want variety change your hotel. Notify everybody in the hotel at least a day before leaving, and you will find that quite a nice little demonstration will be arranged for you, particularly if you haven't tipped more than generously. To avoid ill feeling and to promote respect for the American traveller take a handful of coins and give to everyone near the door, including some of the guests to make sure. They will not resent it but will undoubtedly laugh it off as an eccentricity. If you are out of change at any time, hang around the hotel door yourself and get in the way and glare at unprotected females and you will find that you will get quite a nice little collection of coins in a short time. One redeeming feature of the tipping custom (perhaps the only one) is that you will be getting rid of a whole lot of counterfeit coins that have been passed on you. Do not be discouraged after reading these notes and decide not to go because you will be more comfortable at home. Every traveller knows that, but go anyway and find out for yourself. The hardships of European travel will not be nearly as great as a Polar Expedition or African Exploration, but rank only in third place, tied with mining in Mexico during war times. Train your sense of humor on every- thing and do not commence to swear until you are home again, when it will be found that you will not care to curse queer European cus- toms, you will be kept quite busy with some of our own methods. 204 BUILDERS EXCHANGE CLEVELAND The Builders Exchange Comprising Four Hundred Contracting Firms and Dealers in Material HEADQUARTERS FOR THE BUILDING INDUSTRY OF CLEVELAND Offices and Exhibition Rooms Third Floor, Chamber of Commerce Building VISITORS WELCOME 205 PINE.

Drop us a line stating your particular problem, or call and see us. We may be able to help. The Aluminum Castings Company LYNITE and LYNUX Castings 6205 Carnegie Avenue CLEVELAND 259 This visiting nurse is a general practitioner nurse. She belongs to a staff of nurses supported by contributions to the Visiting Nurse Association and by fees given, when possible, by patients to the nurse and paid by her into the treasury of the Association. These nurses welcome the op- portunity of co-operating with the medical profession and other social agencies by nursing in their homes, under the direction of a physician, persons suffering with any form of illness not contagious and not pro- vided for by special dispensary care or hospital accommodation. The work of the Association thus far has been almost exclusive- ly among the dependent or poor classes of society, therefore, the fees which it has received from patients have been very small and very rare. The Visiting Nurse Association now wishes to extend its work so as to reach the independent, thrifty, self-supporting classes of society who can afford to pay the cost of a visit which is approximately fifty cents. This extension of the work, besides helping to relieve the burden and financial embar- rassment which illness frequently brings to families who are too in- dependent to accept aid from any source whatever, and yet whose incomes are too small to stand un- usual strain, would, we believe, accom- plish an act of mere justice toward peo- ple who in our present scheme of life are frequently too little considered. We need the continued support, both moral and material, of our many friends while we try this new venture, which we must carry without relinquishing our former and also much needed ministration since we are the only general practitioner staff nurses in Cleveland.

That's the trait which makes him successful. The intuitive faculty which enables him to sense the real merit in a proposition and eliminate the unworth, marks him as a successful man. You will find a particularly good opportunity to notice this in studying automobile purchases. For instance, watch the Cole motor car in Cleveland. Notice who are using Coles. Observe that Hermit Fred M. Nicholas has selected a Cole Six. Hermit C. W. Lundoff drives a Cole Roadster. Herbert Wright and Robt. C. Suho of The City Ice Delivery Co., Frank C. Caine, P. J. Morgan, Wm. Lamprecht, B. C. Tucker is a veteran Cole user. Mr. W. E. Wall has recently purchased his second Six Cylinder Cole. There are many others. The united judgment of this galaxy of successful Cleveland citizens means a good deal to you and puts the undisputed stamp of approval upon Standardization which has made possible this wonderful Cole.
