lfeved to be the work OF Gerard John
son. who erected In the church at
Strauord on Avon the portrait bust
to which this bears strong resem-
blance. 1t resembles markedly also
the Droeshout print which was used
as frontispiece to the First Folio edi-
tion of Shakespeare's works.
1t is put down as work Of the late
sixteenth or early seventeenth CEN
tury. and 1t served as the model on
which Kent and Scheemakers designed
their Shakespeare monument for the
Poets Corner of Westminster abbey
The statuette Is about fifteen inches

family until Thomas Hart, the fifth in

rent Shakespeare's birthplace and ex-
hibit this bust and other relics there.
There the bust continued on exhibi-
tion until 1920. when Mr.. Hornby's
widow left the house owing to an in
crease in the rent. She took 1t to a
house across the way. where 1t was
shown for some time longer
In 1890 the executors of Thomas

The complete success of the new
fuel while on the 265O-mile public
test and the advantages gained
through its use were well described
in the following dispatch which the
correspondent of the New York Sun
sent to his paper at the conclusion of
the tour:
"A feature of the tour which was
watched with special interest was
that the White Steamer used kero-
sene, or coal oil,' as fuel instead of
gasoline. The new fuel worked
splendidly throughout the 265O-mile
journey, and all claims made in its
behalf were fully proven. First Of
all. as regards cheapness. the White
driver secured kerosene all along the
route from 6 cents to 10 cents cheap
er per gallon than was paid for gaso-
line. Secondly, the new fuel was
handled without any precautions, and
it was not unusual to see kerosene
being poured into the fuel tank while
the crew of the car and an interested
crowd stood by with lighted cigars
and cigarettes. At the finish of the
tour. the White was the only car per-
mitted by the authorities to enter
Convention Hall, where the technical
examination took place. without
draining its fuel tank. Thirdly, the
new fuel proved to be absolutely
without smoke or smell. Fourthly,
kerosene could be purchased at what
ever part of the route was most con-
venient, and not once during the trip
through the ten States of the Middle
West was there found grocery store
where kerosene was not readily and
cheaply obtainable. Finally, the
The Elbert County tribune., 1909-09-09

amount of fuel used on the trip
showed that kerosene is at least
fifteen per cent. more efficient, gallon
for gallon, than gasoline. The car in
other respects made most creditable
showing, and there was the usual riv-
airy among the observers to be as
signed to the White so that they
could ride with the maximum of COM
fort. The only adjustments or re-
pairs charged against the car during
the long trip were tightening lubri-
Gator pipe and wiring a damaged mud
guard. These penalties were not in
flicted until more than 1000 miles
had been completed with an absolute
ly perfect score
A particularly interesting feature
of the new White Steamer is that
either kerosene or gasoline may be
used as fuel. The necessary adjust
ments SO that the fuel may be changed
from kerosene to gasoline, or vice
versa, may be made in couple of
minutes; but SO completely successful
has kerosene proved to be, that it is
care to use gasoline.
The White Company report that
the demand for their new steam cars
both the s2000-model and the
4000-model-exceed their most san
guine expectations. 1t is evident that
the combination of steam-the pow
er which everyone understands and
has confidence in with kerosene
the fuel which everyone has on hand
and can handle without any danger
lis thoroughly appreciated by
up-to-date purchasers of automo
biles
