A Car
Real Worth
In undertaking to build a six-cyl
inder motor that would set a new
standard for five-passenger cars,
we knew that we were assuming
a task which could not be com
pleted in a week, a month or even
a year. ? '
As a matter of fact, three years
were consumed before we were
satisfied that our original purpose
had been fully achieved.
The verdict which we ourselves
*
rendered has now been confirmed
by the judgment of the motorist.
Owners of the five-passenger Paige
Glenbrook have found its six-cyl
inder motor not only exceptional
in power and speed, but also a
revelation in dependability and
economy.
The Glenbrook is distinctly a Paige
car in beauty as well as mechanical
excellence. It was recognized at
once as such. And, as an invest
ment value, it is acknowledged to
be without equal in the light six
field.

IS WOMAN'S RIGHT
Leap-Year Privilege Has Long
Been Accorded,
Custom by Which She l? at Liberty
at That Time to ChooM Her
Life Partner Is Ancient
and Honorable.
According Io mi oh) myth, a girl
?spiring to matrimony In leap year Is
at liberty not (inly to choose her Hfo
partner, hut should the man of her
choice hy any chance lev I ipdlspoitHl
to wander by her side he Id under
obligation to soften her disappoint
ment hy profYerlng a silk gown, and a
kiss.
In these day*, when the prices for
raiment of any material', not 'tP men
tlon silk, have soared to such Inac
cessible in? i;? 111 ?, it might be advan
tageous for a man "to cherish and
obey," repent and rue, for the rest
Of his quota on earth ruther than
produce the price for an all-silk gown.
An old law, said to have existed In
Scotland In the year 128S may afford
additional comfort to skeptical Spin
sters of today, even to the extent of
rejuvenating their hopes for securing
during the coming year a spouse, A
silk gown, a kiss, or all three; at all
events, It will doubtless Instill further
assurance as to the veracity of this
tlmeworn but none the less tender
privilege. This luw reads:
"It Is statut and ordaint thut during
the rein of her maslt bllssit Megeste.
for Ilk yeare knowhe as lepe yea re, Ilk
mnyden layde of hoflie hlghe and lowe
estalt, shall hae llberte to bespoke ye
man she likes, albeit he refuses to talk
her to he his lawful wyfe. he shall he
mulcted in ye sum ane pundls or less
ns his estait may be; except and avis
glf he can make It appeure that In? Is
betrothit ane ither women, lie then
shall he free."
A few years later a similar law lu
France received the approval of the
king. It Is also said that before Co
lumbus sailed on his famous voyage a
like privilege was granted to the
maldeus of Florence and Genoa.
A curious little book entitled "Love,
Courtship and Matrimony," published
In London in contains the fol
lowing contribution apropos to the
subject:
"Albeit it nowe become a part of the
common la we In regard to social rela
tions of life, that as often as every,
leap yeore doth return, the lndycs
have the sole privilege-during the time
It con tin net h of making love, either
by wordes or iookes. as to them It
seemeth proper, and, moreover, no
man will be entitled to benefit of
clergy who dotli in any wise treat
here with ST&hl or contumely."?New

Couldn't Stand It.
A lit Me hoy in Frankfort refused to

He remembered his last year's experi

Following her usual eu.stom last
year, his mother sent u basket to one
of her husband's employees. In the
basket were placed candy, nuts and,
on this occasion, some candy animals
she found which had been given her
own children on the previous Christ
iuas. The little daughter und. son
were dispatched with the basket and
on arriving were Invited In. Follow
Ing their childish inclination, they
eagerly looked on while the contents
of the basket were opened and ad
mired.
Especially did the children seem to
appreciate the candy animals. They
were in the act of eating them when
the little boy to whom, the year be*
fore this pleasure had been denied,
could stand it no longor.
"Oh," he exclaimed pathetically,
"thoso are the ones mamma gave us
last Christmas."?Indianapolis News.

a place that boasts of great swimming

passed on.
Two or three hours later mother
and daughter came back by the same
route and again passed the museum.
The sign. of course was still there.
Nellie could not be silenced. "Is that
man still eating the shark?" she asked.
"I should think he would get tired."?

Owners Praise It
For Its Comfort
The delightful comfort with which five adult persons ride in the
Cleveland Six touring car has appealed to buyers everywhere. The
wide, soft-cushion seats, upholstered in genuine hand-buffed
plaited leather, are cozy as cozy can be. And the low underslung
spring construction, a feature of the Cleveland Six chassis, subdues
the road-shock long before it can reach the cushions.
Many unusual qualities 3uch as
these are fast winning friends for the
Cleveland Six. Among light weight
sixes it stands out distinctly.
At all the principal automobile
shows this season it has attracted ex
traordinary crowds. Men of mechan
ical interests and men experienced in
the use of motor cars have been
generous in their expression of ap
proval and admiration for the entire
design and construction of the Cleve
landSix chassis. The several beautiful
styles of body, mounted on this one
chassis, have met with praise from
men and women alike. ,
When you see or drive
the Cleveland Six, you want it.
