bottle and fill up with the syrup:
made as follows: Take a pint or
GRADUATED Sugar. add " pint or
warm water and stir for about Z
minutes. Take a teaSpOonful every
one, two or three hours. 1t tastes
plea like it.
This simple medicine is also splen-
did for colds. whoopng cough, bron--
chitis. incipient consumption, chest
pains, etc.
Pinex. as you probably know. is
the most potent form of Norway
White Pine Compound. 1t Is rich in
all the well-known pine elements.
None of the weaker pine prepara-
lions compare with the real PineX
itself Your druggist has it. or will
gladly get it for you.
The full pint of this effective
cough syrup can be made for 81
cents. 1t keeps perfectly and lasts
a whole family a long time.
Strained honey can be used instead
of the syrup and makes a very fine
honey and pine tar cough syrup.

Announcement was made Monday at
the educational department that no
contract was awarded for the erection
of the new Normal school building at
Machias when the bids were opened
by a committee of the Normal school
trustees last week. None Of the bids
submitted were low enough to allow
the building to be constructed under
the appropriation made. so the bids
were all rejected. The architect is to
make such alterations in the plans and
specifications as will allow of bids
which are submitted being accepted
and competition will he re-opened
within a few days.

HELPS TO CHAUFFEURS.
Not Difficult to Prepare Anti-Freez
ing Solutions.

Now is the time of year to use anti
freezing solutions 1t is not difficult to
prepare a solution that will remain liquid
at low temperatures, but the effect that
this solution has on metallic parts and
rubber connections with which it comes
in contact must be considered. The best
known anti-freezing solutions, and those
that are most commonly used, are glycer-
in and water, calcium and chloride, salt
and water alcohol and water. A solution
consisting OF 30 per cent glycerin and 70
per cent water (by measure) is recon-
mended.
If any hydrometer is used in preparing
this solution the glycerin should be add
ed to the water until the solution is 10
degrees (Baume) heavier than water. This
solution does not attack and corrode the
metallic surfaces. It has little effect on
rubber hose connections and leaves no
deposit in the radiator, water pipes and
water jackets. Commercial glycerin can
be used, and the cost of this solution will
not be excessive. BY straining the solu-
ton through piece of filter paper formed
in the shape of funnel all foreign sub
stances will be removed.
AS the liquid heats it expands, and If
the water circulating system is full the
surplus is wasted. You should remove
about pint Of the solution from the
radiator after you have filled up the
water circulating system, to allow for
expansion. Calcium chloride will attack
the metal and destroy it by corrosion.
Salt destroys the metal by electrolysis
when more than one kind of metal is
used, and capitalization of salts will
clog up the pump and radiator passages.
Alcohol will destroy rubber hose connec-
tons rapidly, and the better the grade of
rubber used in the hose the more rapidly
1t is destroyed. If the inside of the hose
connection is destroyed the lining will
clog up the water passage and prevent
free circulation and the result is an over
heated engine

Wheel Bases Increasing

A few years ago it was thought that
wheel bases had reached their limit as to
length. There was even a slight reaction,
and wheel bases shrank a little. The toy
tonneau, baby tonneau, etc. were really
a sort of protest against the extremes
to which designers were asserted to have
gone. It is now plain that the halt
called on big cars was merely temporary
and that wheel bases are still being in
creased. A very large number of max
ers have put few inches on their cars,
and the sum total is very material In
crease all along the line. If 1t were not
for the greater number OF very small
cars that have been placed on the market
this year there would be very few models
Except low-powered runabouts) having
wheel bases of less than 100 inches.
For fye-paSsenger cars the favored
length is from 10 to 100 inches, although
exceed the latter figure. From 10 up to
l4O inches come the big cars, usually
carrying seven passengers, although quite
q respectable number Of high-powered
roadsters and some fiveepassenger cars
exceed 40 inches in length.
The meaning of this undoubtedly is
that generous wheel bases make for ca se
and comfort in riding, and even the in
creased weight and the greater room
required in storing and handling, espe-
cially in traffic-congested streets, is in
SUFFICIENT to deter buyers from favoring
such cars. 1t is of course, possible to
get the wheel bases too long. but there is
undoubtedly a greater latitude in this
direction than was formerly believed pos
sible.

HARLES THADDEUS TERRY 5
IL plea for uniformity in automobile
~ legislation before the convention OF
the National Civic Federation in Wash
ington. last week. struck popular chord,
AS chairman of the Legislative board OF
the American Automobile Association, Mr.
Terry has devoted. perhaps more study
to the question of uniform automobile
legislation than any other investigator in
the country.
He drew up. a few years ago, the uni
form state vehicle law, the salient pro-
visions of which have been adopted by
several state legislatures He also
drafted the bill for national registra ton
law to be reintroduced into Congress at
the present session.
Mr. Terry. in view of his familiarity
with automobile legislation in the United
States, was invited by the National Civic
Federation to explain the necessity Tor
uniformity in this respect.
Mr.. TerryS speech virtually outlined the
fundamental objects of the coming ma
tional legislative convention, to be held
under the auspices of the American
Automobile Association in Washington
just one month later. on February -, is

states have been invited to send as dele
gates their accredited representatives IN
charge of the enforcement of their re-
spective automobile laws.
He said:
There are thrty-three states which
have separate. distinct. and, in many
respects. very different motor vehicle
regulations. When you consider this and
the further fact that even within the
borders OF a single state in not few in

Job That Calls for Skill.

A job that at all times calls for a lit
tie skill and patience Is the replace
ment OF cylinders on the crank cham
Der. The difficulty varies, of course,
greatly; with a light, single-cylinder
motor it is comparatively child's play,
while pair Of heavy twins calls for a
considerable amount Of physical exer-
ton as well as skill. 1t is by no means
an uncommon occurrence to break a pis-
ton ring in the act Of reassembling the
cylinders on an engine. and still more
frequent is nasty nip to one Of the
fingers.
Except in the case Of a single-cylinder
engine, it Is a job which really de-
mands the services Of helper. as one
pair of hands is not sufficient First,
the cylinders have to be held in posi-
ton ready to lower over the pistons,
then the latter have to be brought to
a central and vertical position. so that
the mouths of the bores can commence
to swallow them. 1t Is at this juno
ture that the greatest care has to be
exercised-the cylinders must be low
cred gently and slowly, or else there
will be a danger Of swapping the top
piston rings.

ference and a true circle instead of the
usual oval, which will mean that drivers
will not have to slacken speed on &C

that it will be the safest course in the
