Wide Tires.

Eds. Record Union: In your issue
of Sunday, September 10Th, you pub
lished the new wide-tire law passed by
the last Legislature. Undoubtedly the
law is calculated to result in much ben
fit to the road system of California, and
undoubtedly also, the trainers of the
law knew exactly what they meant
when they framed it, but it is equally
certain that many of the laity are less
wise.
In the first place, We have a 234-inch
steel or thunderstorm axle, requiring a
3-inch tire, and later we have 21a-inch
steel or iron axle, requiring a 6-inch tire.
In each case we have two classes of
axles defined; in one an alternative of
steel of thimble skein, and in the other
an alternative of steel or iron. That
is, we have two steel axles, one 2334
inches, requiring a 3-inch tire, and one
smaller by a quarter of an inch, requir-
ing q 6-inch tire.
The only perceptible difference be-
tween them being, that one is the al
tentative of the thimble skein and the
other the alternative of the iron axle.
both, however, being simple steel axles
so far as any information to the con-
trary is contained in the text of the law.
VIII some one who understands this
seeming muddIe kindly explain?

"A Saturday
Night Incident.

A man in our store last Satur-
day evening incidentally remarked
that he had not bought ready
made suit of clothes in five years.
He pointed to the suit which he
had on, stating that it had been
made to order and was giving ex-
ceptionally good service.
The man to whom he addressed
this remark recognized the ma
terial and in a moment was able
to place before his astonished eyes
an exact duplicate in cloth and
pattern of the suit he had on and
at half the price. He had paid $50,
our suit was SIS, and with better
Innings besides!
1t is only rarely that we can
prove the superiority of our
clothing so convincingly as in this
case, nevertheless the superiority
is there and the more our goods
and prices are compared the more
evident it becomes to all unbiased
minds.

Intensity of human interest, the cum

technique of acting, and the adrolt
