The latest invention to attract tn

The latest invention to attract the
attention and approval of railroad
men is the cushion car wheel, which
is said to possess many advantages 10
the way of simplicity, safety and
economy, while. a the same time, BE-
ing almost noiseless.
The wheel is composed oftwo parts,
the center and the tire, while between
the two is thick rubber band which
acts as q cushion to absorb all the vi
brations. By peculiar construction,
the tire is made 20 that it may be re-.
moved without taking the wheel from
the axle. The rubber is 20 interposed
between the center and the tire - not
to be liable to injury from . hot box
or from the corrosive action Of the lu-
bricants.
A test recently made with these
wheele showed that after . service of
over 20, 900 miles the rubber had not
deteriorated, while the tire shoved .

which Is said to be less than one half
the usual wear for this distance.

delightful. But will you please be
good enough to remember that love
worth having does not come in q
week or a month, and that in his
watch case there may be the face Of q
girl whom he loves with all his heart,
and whom he thinks about every
night before he closes bis eyes. You
are just q part of his vacation : and
won't you be wise enough to make
him a part of yours? II, when the
vacation is over, he should come to
your home, what was merely . sum-
mer acquaintance may ripen into .
friendship. Well, that's another
thing. But just for the sunshiny
time don't allow yourself to thick to
much about what the summer young
man says or does.

United States navy, who is spending
