The Leo Niessen Co. will put an- 

 other new Autocar of one and one-half

 luck. Krst, a favorite horse died, 

 after eleven years of faithful service. 

 Another one cost $200 and it, too, died 

 a few weeks ago. Then Mr. Aschmann 

 himself became ill, December 13 and 

 the doctors feared gangrene or Dlood
