AN ANNOUNCEMENT. We have to announce that the second aeries of 1916 "Studebaker" cars are now on their way to New Zealand, per s.s. Pakeha, from Montreal, due to arrive shortly. These carß come from the Canndian assembling and finishing branch, Walkerville, Ontario, and are remarkable for their exceptionally fine finish, necessitated by the demands of the overseas Studebaker trade. Many valuable detail improvements are incorporated in the second series models, one of the most noteworthy of these being the provision of independent and separately adjustable front seats of the "bucket" type, together with adjustable pedals. This refinement should especially appeal to the lady driver or the exceptionally tall or shoTt man, whose comfort is not adequately provided for by the usual fixed dimensions in the front of the car. An. other important modification is the relegation of the petrol tank to the rear of the oar, and the provision of a vorv efficient vacuum feed to carburetter. There are many minor modifications and improvements, all designed to add to the oomfort and convenience of both driver and passengers;, while in appearance the car is handsomer than ever. The new Studebakers will be on view at Studebaker Agencies shortly, and all interested in the latest developments in American automobile design are invited to .inspect them.

The Parisian has found a use for the periscope in peace. When the Russian troops marched through Paris recently and all the world and his wife turned out to see them, two Frenchmen in the back row, where the crowd was five or six rows deep, saw the- whole show by means of periscopes. Their sticks had a mirror at the top and another at the bottom. "The weakest go to the wall." Bs rtrong and heajthy. Take Baxter's Lung Preserver to Tesist coiighs, colds, and throat troubles.
