18 WILMETTE LIFE August 13, 1926 Chicago Man Commits Suicide in Lake Here John E. Murphy, 53 years old, 1718 J uneway terrace, Chicago, was found dead in the lake a short distance north of the houndarv between vVilmette and Evanston last· Sunday morning. The condition of the bodv indicated that the man harl attempted to cut his throat, but because of the fact that no knife was found police at first considered the possibility of murder. An inquest was held at Scott's undertaking parlors. 1124 Central avenue, last Monday at which a verdict of death by suicide was rentrned hr the coroner's jury.

Other motor cars of more or· less distinction will do just as well. Happily, there is a small hut extremely worth-while group of people who are more exacting in their tastes. They are rather partial to Biltmore tweeds, squab pheasants, sandstone cottages and pure Havana leaf. They do most of the things worth while in this world, and they do what they do with a flareLIVE WITH AN AIR! For these C. Harold Wills created Wills Sainte Claire. One must be born with the devine gift of INDIVIDUALITY, before the half-European beauty, and wholly American pep and rower of this remarkable car becomes an irresisuble necessity.
