Robert, a boy of fourteen, thought

Do You
Prefer?
Pullman or Freight ?
No one would think pf riding in a
freight car if he could enjoy the
comfort of a big, comfortable easy
riding Pullman parlor car.
So with automobiles. 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.

to grant a safe conduct to the United
