CUSHION CAR WHEEL The latest inven-
tlon to attract the attention and approval OF
railroad men is the cushion car wheel, which
il said to possess many advantages in the
wsy of simplicity, safety and economy,
while. at the seme time. being almost noise
less Tbe wheel is composed OF two parts,
the centre and the tiro, while between the
two ia a thick rubber bs, which sots as 8
cushion TO absorb all the vibrations. By q
peculiar construction, the tire is made 30
toat it may be- removed without takiDg the
wheel from The axle. The rubber is 20 in,
terposed between the centre end the tire as
not to be liable to Injury from hot box or
from the corrosive action of the lubricants.
A test reosntly n ,de with these wheels
showed that after sarvlce OF over 20 600
miles the rubber had not deteriorated, while
the ,irs showed wenr OF but thirty-sec-
