Working for America has been the finest thing that ever happened to the Cadillac.

It has inspired us to guard more jealously than ever the scrupulous character of Cadillac construction.

It has quickened our zeal to build a motor car worthy of the highest and most honorable traditions of the nation.

When fine motor cars are thought of after the war, we want America and the Cadillac to be forever linked together the world over.

Our ambition is that no motor car as fine as the Cadillac shall pass under the supervision of this or any of the allied governments.

We are vastly more interested, now, in continuing to deserve the approval of the Government, than in any new business that could possibly come to the Cadillac Company.

E suspicious of any tenderness or bleed ing of the gums. This is usually the first stage of Pyorrhea an insidious disease of the gums that destroys the teeth and undermines bodily health.

Gradually the gums be come spongy. They in flame, then shrink, thus exposing the unenameled tooth base to the ravages of decay. Tiny openings in the gums form gateways for disease germs to enter the sys tem. Medical science has traced many ills to these infecting germs in the gums weakened by Pyorrhea.

They are now known to be a frequent cause of indigestion, anaemia, rheumatism and other serious conditions.

So watch carefully for that first tenderness or bleeding of the gums. Try Forhan's immedi ately. It positively prevents Pyorrhea (Riggs' Disease) if used time and used consistently.

October 19.-President Wilson rejects the Austrian peace plea, stating that the United States Government has recognized the nationality of the CzechoSlovaks and the aspirations of the Jugo-Slavs for freedom, and he is, therefore, "no longer at liberty to accept the mere autonomy' of these peoples as a basis of peace, but is obliged to insist that they and not he shall be the judges of what action on the part of the AustroHungarian Government will satisfy their aspirations and their conception of their rights and destiny as members of the family of nations."

Advices from Vienna note that the
Austro-Hungarian alliance with Ger-

VERYBODY has met the "know-it-all" type of man. When you tell him something extraordinary he's sure to say "it can't be done."

Maybe this kind of a car owner won't believe that "X" Liquid has repaired the inner wall of a cracked cylinder making it as good as new -and saving the car owner over $150 in repairs.

Yet the facts are on record-and can be verified.

It is no unusual thing for "X" Liquid to repair cracks in valve packets-in waterjackets-in parts of the cooling system where for any reason welding isn't practical or economical.

And as for small holes in the radiator, pump, connections, etc.-"X" will repair one leak or a thousand -in ten minutes. And do a better job than can be had for $25 worth of soldering.

"X" Liquid is the only practical, scientific method of repairing leaks without danger to the cooling sys tem. It doesn't weaken the radiator as soldering does; nor does it choke the cooling system and make the cure worse than the disease-as is the case with radiator cements, flaxseed meals and such "dopes."

How "X" Liquid Reduces
Upkeep Costs

MANY

ANY car owners keep "X" constantly in the water. This repairs all leaks before they give trouble. And if "X" is kept in the water it loosens the rust and scale now present-and prevents new rust or scale from forming. This means a cooler, better working engine-plus a saving of oil and gasoline.

It's not going to be easy to get another car next year-so give your present car the care it deserves. Keep "X" Liquid constantly in the water. It works in alcohol or other reliable anti-freeze. One can lasts a season and takes all the trouble out of the cooling system.

In preparing your car for the winter, use "X" Liquid to repair all the leaks. This will prevent the anti-freeze from leaking away-and save your engine.

Get "X" Liquid from your dealer-or we will ship direct on receipt of price and dealer's name.

October 21.-Germany's reply to President Wilson is received in Washington. It concedes that the conditions of an armistice should be left to military advisers, who should take the actual standard of power on both sides in the field as the basis for safeguarding arrangements, the German Government trusting that the President will approve of no demand irreconcilable with "the honor of the German people.' Protesting against the "reproach of illegal and inhumane actions "made against the German land and sea forces, it denies that the German Navy has destroyed life-boats with their passengers, and claims that in retreat destructions on land have been carried out according to international law. Moreover, to avoid hampering the peace movement, instructions have been dispatched to commanders to preclude the torpedoing of passenger-ships. Recent changes in the constitution, the reply proceeds, have virtually abolished the autocratic power denounced by President Wilson and the responsibility of the Chancellor to the representation of the people is being "legally developed and safeguarded." Therefore, the German "offer of peace and an armistice has come from a Government which is free from any arbitrary and irresponsible influence and is supported by the approval of an overwhelming majority of the German people."

Senator Poindexter introduces a joint resolution proposing that Congress forbid further, negotiations by the United States with Germany in regard to an armistice or peace until the German military forces surrender unconditionally.

Till then we must be prepared to resist a peace of violence." Paris reports that the German propaganda service announces that a commission of neutral residents of Brussels has gone to the front to investigate charges of devastation and destruction during the German retreat in Belgium. In a speech to parliamentary delegates at Buckingham Palace, King George declares that victory is in sight, and "we are all agreed that it must be a complete victory."

Washington hears from all sides that the country is dissatisfied with the German note and insists upon unconditional surrender. Senators Lodge and Reed make strong protests against further negotiations.

Vienna announces that the Austro-Hungarian Government will reply soon to President Wilson's note, and intimates that the President has not "replied to the question concerning conditions on which peace negotiations are possible." October 23.-Replying to Germany's last note, President Wilson says that, having received the solemn and explicit assurance of the acceptance of his peace terms from ministers speaking for an overwhelming majority of the German people, and also the explicit promise that the humane rules of civilized warfare will be observed by
