MOTOR PUFFS

What is undoubtedly the largest and
most complete line OF cars ever placed on
the market by one company is that Of the
r.. r. Thomas Motor Company for 1908.
Demonstrating cars have already been de-
llvered to a number OF the eompany's rep
resentatives. and although the show season
Is still weeks away orders are being taken
in numbers in the cities to which the new
models have gone. Every year this COM
pany has put something new and striking
on the market, and 1908 is no exception to
this rule. -Four styles OF GLASSES and nine
teen styles Of bodies comprise the line. The
immense Thomas plants at Detroit and
Buffalo have arisen to the occasion and
fulfilled the mission Of the nan whose
name they bear. Made possible by years
of public approval, the facilities Of the
F.. r, Thomas Motor Company are we'll
nigh unlimited, and IL has gathered to-
gether the best automobile talent OF the
world. The rise of the Thomas in the
course of the last four years has been little
short of marvellous, all the more striking
vixen one ponders over the figures. In
1904 $50 machines saw their birth atl the
Buffalo factory. In 1907 over 1,1OO high
powered cars We're placed on the market
and eagerly taken up by the
public. The plants where the cars are
now turned out comprise acres of concrete
and steel buildings, containing altogether
almost 10000 square feet of floor space.
One of the new cars is the Thomas
Town Car of four cylinders and twenty
horsepower. Built especially for city and
suburban work, cars Of similar design
ave gained their vogue abroad and
America now demands them. Their centre
of gravity is low to prevent rocking n
skidding; they are short to permit turn
ing in narrow streets without stopping
and backing; their construction is the
acme of simplicity and they are practical
ly noiseless and very light in weight.
The Thomas 40 Detroit has been light

Is much roomier, having ample seating
capacity for I'VE. has plenty OF speed. re-

f. II. Mccarthy. of Philadelphia, the
general manager of the Mccarthy Steel
Wire Company, of that city. has just
bought his third Acme car from the Scull-
Morris Motor Company. the Philadelphia
agents. The circumstance of the sales of
this ear to Mr.. Mccarthy was peculiar.
He was in Reading on private business
and stopped at the factory of the Acme
company. While there, he was asked by
some Of the officials TO take a ride over
Penn Mountain. which overlooks the town
and the road ove~ which is used as a
testing ground by Acme drivers. He took
a ride over the mountain road In the new
Sextuplet, being taken up the entire noun
tain climb on the direct drive. When he
arrived at the pagoda which crowns the
crest. he demanded to be taken back at
once to the factory. and on his arrival
there Immediately placed an order for a
S~extuplet, although he had not previously
intended purchasing a ear on his Reading
trip. Mr.. Mccarthy said in connection
with the buying of this six-cylinder: "If
people who buy expensive foreign cars
knew the merits of the Acme, they would
think twice before buying imported cars"
The t-ranscontineutal Dragon. which was
started from San Francisco on September
4 with the intention of being run through
to New York, under the guidance OF
Charles A. Darcy, did not get any fur
Their East than Omaha. A letter received
from Mr.. Darcy at that point states that
the run was made too late In the season
and a series Of unfortunate accidents had
made II impossible to go forward with the
car. He added that as soon as the weather
was favorable in the spring another al
terapt on the across-the continent record
would be made, hut that for the present
the attempt was "off. The car has heen
sent to the Philadelphia factory. where il
will be overhauled and shipped back 10 san
Francisco.

DETROIT. Oct. 12.-Charles l. Palms,
chairman, of the board of directors Of
the Wayne Automobile Company, says:
MY belief in the statement that next
season will be the brightest in the his
tory of the automobile industry is
based upon the fact hat from a mere
trailer and pupil of the foreign nations
the United States has at last come to
be the greatest manufacturer and pro-
Queer Of automobiles in the world.
From an output of 314 machines in 1902
this country has increased its opera
tions till in the ear 1906 over 10000
machines were produced; 1907 is go
ing to Exceed that number. and 1908
according to my opinion, is going t6
exceed both. When the United States
were turning out 314 machines, France
manufactured "a, 600 in the same length
of time. In 1906 France manufactured

people and baggage. The extreme care that
has been taken to make the car absolutely
dependable Is shown by the fact that two

The south has few women so repre- sentative and charming as Mrs. Virginia Clay Clopton of Huntsville. Ala. She Is the widow of Clement c. Clay. Jr.,
 a member of the Confederate cabinet, and a co-prisoner with Jefferson Davis when that fallen chieftain saw his little republic crumble and was sent into hu- initiating confinement to bear the burden of lost cause Mrs. Clopton lived in Washington many years and her memory Is rich in stories of the great men and the clever women who formed the social world of that period. Her richest "reminiscences are of the time when Andrew Johnson was President and so completely under the dominion of Secretary Stanton that the presidential orders were not even worth the paper they were written on when presented at Fortress Monroe as passports for her to visit her husband
 She once made most daring invasion of the White House to demand admis- sion to Fortress Monroe, and added a rather interesting paragraph to history by openly accusing MT. Johnson of having no power in his own office and of being afraid of Secretary Stanton. The Presi- dent never denied the accusation, but mildly suggested that she write down the various grievances she had against the government and he would read them at the next meeting of the cabinet. Mrs. Clay waxed wroth over this and refused to comply with the suggestion, saying: T will come and read 1t myself if you will only say so, then I will know it was read" Her perseverance finally won her permission to see her husband. but her contempt for Johnson never waned, and her hate for Stanton's unfair methods never cooled.

 Old timers in Washington frequently refer to Mrs. Grover Cleveland as one of the most gracious and charming ladies who ever lived in the White House. She won that reputation by her tact, kindli- ness and genuine wholesomeness of char acter. While always bearing in mind the dignity of her position, she remained thoroughly democratic and maintained a simplicity of heart that drew her nearer to her friends. Friendliness was one of her most obvious traits, as a delighted and blushing girl once testified after reception that had proved a crush. The girls dress had been sadly torn and she said to her escort, 'Oh, do wait until l can get pm aiiu lA tnis HouHSS' ie is simply awful Stand still, dear, and I will pin 1t for you" said quiet voice behind her. The girl stood until the voice said again, "All right, It will not show now" When she turned to thank her friend-in-need she was covered with con fusion to belfold the wife of the chief executive rising from her knees after successfully pinning the fiounce back into place.
