Most of the popular priced cars ride like freight cars. This is due to the old fashioned tyfle of spring. Many manufacturers still continue to use them.

PROGRESS OF THE WAR Roumania Seems Doomed From At' tacks By Austro-Germans. The entire line of the Alt river in Rumania, running north and south through the country from the Tran sylvania Alps to the Danube, now is in the hnnds of the Teutonic Allies, In a!) diywHoiiM the invaders are ?con tinuing to make progress. with Buch arest, their main objective, daity. com ing nearer. Tht' Southern and Eastern drive in the Alt legion lias brought the Teu tonic forces across the Topolog river, while to the south, between Hoehi de Vede and ValencL their line has been drawn -considerably near the Ru manian capital. Alexandria, forty-sev en miles southeast of Bucharest has been taken lyr Field Marshal Von Mack ensen's troops. Considering the swiftness of the ad vance of the Teutonic Allies through Wallachia comparatively few prisoners have been taken, although semi-offi clal reports credit them with having captured considerable supplies of needed stores and 1,206 men were made prisoners, while in the Alt region, near Ttgvqdil, ten additional ofllct?rs and 400 men fell into the hands of the Teutons. In a big battle extending over a front of about seventeen miles north west and northeast of Monastir; be tween Tronovo and Makovo, the En tente Allies according to Berlin, have met with a severe defeat through the failure of an attack launched agalffSt the lines of the allies of the Central Powers. Aside from reports of the repulse of the Bulgarians by the Ser bians and of continued progress for the Italians west of Monastir, t^e En tente allied war officials recoM no Important engagements on the Mace donian front. In the Carnia sector of the Austro Italian theater and east of Gorizia the Austrlans are vigorously shelling the Italians. On the Russian front there has been considerable activity by both the Russians and Germans at various points. Comparative calm still prevails all along the front in France, so far as infantry engagements are concerned. A Berlin semi-official dispatch says there are Indications that the Entente Allies contemplate fresh offensives, probably near Armentieres and oast of Arras, where heavy artillery bom bardments are being carried out, and also on the St.' Mthlel salient, hottth cjisI of Verdun. Another semi-official dispatch, from Berlin quotes Constantinople advices to the effect that Arabs on tbe Tripoli* Tunis frontier In North Africa have defeated tTYe Italians and carried the fight across the border Into TunlfTj against the French. The looses of the Italians are estimated at 20,000 men, not including prisoners taken into the interior by the Arabs.
