The most interesting announce
ment ever made in connection with
the automobile industry was un-
doubtedly that made q month or two
ago to the effect that the new models
OF the White Steam Cars could be run
on kerosene, or coal oil, instead of
gasoline. Everyone at once recog-
nized that the use of the new fuel
would add materially to the advan-
tages which the White already DOS
sessed over other types of cars.
There were some people, however,
who were sceptical as to whether or
not the new fuel could be used with
complete success, and, therefore, the
makers Of the White Car, the White
Company, of Cleveland, Ohio, deter
mined to make a public demonstra-
ton of the new fuel in the 1909 Gid
den Tour.
From the standpoint of the public,
no test more satisfactory could have
been selected. First of all, the dis
lance covered on the Glidden Tour,
from Detroit to Denver and thence to
Kansas City, was 1850 miles. This
was certainly more than sufficient to
bring out any weaknesses, if such had
existed. Still more important was
the fact that the car was at all times
while on the road under the supervi-
sion of observers named by those
who entered other contesting cars.
Therefore, it would have been impos-
sible for the driver of the White to
have even frightened a bolt without
the fact being noted and penalty in
f1icted. At night the cars were
guarded by Pinkerton detectives and
could not be approached by any one.

SENSE ABOUT FOOD
Facts About Food Worth Knowing.

1t is serious question sometimes to
know just what to eat when a per-
sons stomach is out of order and most
foods cause trouble.
GraPe-Nuts food can be taken at any
time with the certainty that it will
digest. Actual experience of people is
valuable to anyone interested in foods.
A Terre Haute woman writes: 81

What Bothered Him

A peculiar instance of connubial af-
lection occurred some time ago IN
Vermont. An aged couple, who
through half a century of married life
had wrangled with each other, were
in all probability soon to be separated.
The husband was taken sick, and was
believed to be near his end. The old
wife came to his bedside and after
carefully examining and taking stock
of his condition. exclaimed: 'why,
daddy. your feet are cold, your hands
are cold. and your nose is cold"
"Wa'al. let 'em be cold"
