oermanent euro guaranteea in every case or Plica, by my aentl. The honest competition, of a superior product ha3 driven one gasoline company to resort to misrepresentation of There have recently been distributed from the filling stations of a Refining Company printed leaflets containing false and libelous statements in reference to motor fuel composed of benzol mixed with gasoline. -s Benzo-Gas is the original and only benzol and gasoline mixture motor fuel procurable in this city it is obvious that thi libel is directed against it. There ha been a systematic "whimpering campaign" of mil- representation regarding Benzo-Gas for the last four years. Motorists have been warned by filling station attendants and others of injurious effects of Benzo-Gas on motors.

This is the first time, however, that anyone would put the story into type and come out in the open and give us an opportunity to make a reply. Here Are the FACTS 1 Benzo-Gas never was put on the market as a competitor for gasoline. Benzo-Gas is a motor fuel made for the motorists who wanted something better than gasoline. That there is a demand for Benzo-Gas is proven by the fact that thousands of motorists in Kansas City, St. Louis, Minneapolis and will not use any other motor fuel.

2. Benzo-Gas is the original "Xo Knock" motor fuel. That there is a demand for a "No Knock" motor fuel is best evidenced by the fact that during the last year supplementary 'products have been developed to take the "knock" out of gasoline. Great stress has been laid on the fact that these "anti-knock" compounds will do what Benzo-Gas has always done. 3.

Despite all the "whispering" and misrepresentation, Benzo-Gas sales have shown a steady increase. This increase in sales is due to the fact that motorists who try BENZO-GAS realize that there is no truth in the stories and that it is a superior motor fuel. There is no doubt but that thousands of motorists have refrained from even trying Benzo-Gas because of the malicious stories circulated. A FAIR CHALLENGE We challenge the Company to propose within thirty days from September 10, 1921, any test or series of tests appropriate to prove the truth or falsity of the derogatory statements in reference to Benzo-Gas contained in their leaflet or to prove that Benzo-Gas as a motor fnel is or can be in any way injurious to the cylinders, valves, pistons, bearings or any other metal parts of an automobile motor. If such test is approved as fair and reasonable by any reputable and disinterested automobile engineer or chemist, we hcre-bv agree to accept the same and participate in the test, and we further agree that the results thereof may published.

In default of proposing and carrying out uch test or tests we will expect the Company to make public retraction of the derogatory statements contained in the leaflets distributed from, their station. mild methods, employed only by myalf. and tho result of 2t years' exten Men and Women now keep their hain smooth, lustrous, always in place oAt- Th Dodger twirler to intentionally pass Hornsby, the bases anrl tnt. a rVoitf. sive practice in my specialty ins treatment 01 Piles, Fistula.

People who know that the hair can ruin the whole appearance people who are careful about the way they look have given Stacomb an important place on their chiffonier or dressing table.

Why? i A few years ago the hair was a nuisance to almost everyone, it was usually the least attractive part of the appearance always unkempt and unsightly an hour after being combed. There was no way, then, to keep it from being so.

Old-fashioned pomades only matted it and made it greasy. Water evaporated quickly and left it drier and more unruly than ever. Today everyone can have smooth, neatly combed hair Now Stacomb a delicate, invis-' ible cream for keeping the hair in place has changed all that. It is responsible for the amazingly improved appearance of men's hair. And it has made possible for every woman, however "difficult" her hair, the new smooth effect so much in vogue.
