One OF the evidences that's hows the
return Of prosperity In this section is
the Increased number or real estate
transfers Last year the county clerk
filled SIX deed books and during the
year previous only three deed books
were filled. The great increase In the
real estate transfers has been since
July. 1909. Before that time there
wns little Improvement in business as
indicated in the county clerks Office
over the business conditions that pre-.
vailed In 1905. Every day brings In
a'number OF deeds to be. recorded.
Another evidence of, the prosperity
of Marion county Is the great number
OF release OF liens that are sent In for
recordation. People are buying homes
now and are paying for them. Homes
that were bought before the financial
stringency are now owned by the pnr.
chaser without cloud on the title.
There are lots of other evidences OF
Marion connty's prosperity. but moth

WHEELING. w. Va, Jan. s.--There are
some who believe that the girl In the
mans attire who met death to-day under
the wheels Of an engine at Benwood was
Roberta De Janon. the missing Philadel-
phia girl.
When the girl met death she was with
a man about 20 years OF age. o feet in
height and Weighing about 100 pounds,
He had brown mustache.
The, two. the police believe had spent
the night in a mill building at Benwood
They were crossing the railroad when
yard engine bore down upon them.
The man saw it and jumped TO one side,
but the girl was not quick enough.
When the train was stopped the CON-
panion OF the dead person stood for a
few minutes and to the trainmen said
he did not know who the person was.
Then he picked up two bundles that he
had carried and ran from the scene
When undertakers stripped the body
they found that IL was that Of woman.
She wore five suits Of underwear, two
pairs Of trousers and had on two coats
and a sweater. She was feet inches
in height, weighed about 100 pounds and
had dark hair.
Chief Of Police Albert Policy OF Ben
wood does not believe the girl is Miss DE
Janon, basing his belief on the fact that
the girls hands are hardened and rough
as though she was accustomed 20 heavy

been notified.

Ingenious and Effective NOn-Skid
Device Shown by the Hartford
Rubber Works Company at
the Automobile Show.

One Of the most interesting things in
the exhibits of the various tire makes is
the Non-Skid tire shown by the Hartford
Rubber Works Company, Of Hartford,
Conn. The Company has been producing
this tire for four years and il has met
with signal success everywhere. Ii is
known as the Hartford Wire Grip Non
Skid Tire (MidgIey Pstenr.
Mr.. !. D. Anderson. President Of the
Hartford Rubber Works Company. in
an interview says that the great success
Of this tire is undoubtedly due. TO the
fact that. unlike all other non-Skid de-
vices on the market, il is resilient; is
carried right into the tread Of the tire
itself and brings metal into contact with
the pavement.
we have tried" said Mr.. Anderson.
ALI kinds Of plans TO devise a non-skid
tire that would be effective and at the
same time resilient. Rubber indenta-
tions, eorrugations, etc. are positively
not effective, because wherever rubber
comes into contact with a wet pave
ment, if the brakes are suddenly applied,
or II the car for any reason defects from
a straight line. the car will skid.
Our experience has been thar metal
must come into contact with the pave
ment. Every device we know Of or have
tried has 'deadened' the tire TO such an
extent as to make il very hard on the
car and spelling its easy riding qualities"
The Hartford Wire-grip Non-skid tire
is a most ingenious and effective in
vention. A regular Hartford tire, either
Clincher, Dunlop or Quick Detachable
by special process, has four coils of
heavy steel wire incorporated right into
the tread as shown by the sectional cut
herewith
The sun., 1910-01-09

tice. And when We say correct W,
mean correct as proved by four years
successful use.
Let us make it perfectly plain and elear
TO you. The Hartford Wire Grip Non
Skid is the only non-skid tire thar pro
vides metal cont act with the road anc
yer retains all Of its resilieney and cas-,
riding qualities
Rubber--corrugated, indented. with
angles or projections-will slip on wet
asphalt or icy roads. The true non-skic
must bring metal into contact with the
road. Many non-skids do that, but moi
one OF them is resilient. How we ae.
eomPlish it is shown by the picture Of
the tire section.
The non-Skid feature is made up OF
four parallel coils of specially tempered
specially treated steel wire-moulded
right into the tread Of the tire itself.
The wire is light; it is strong: it is
flexible: it is steel.
IL gives when the tire gives; it takes
away nothing Of the tires resilieney.
When the tire is new the coils are
complete. But as you use the tire, the
coils coming into contact with the road
wear away. The result is thousands OF
little spikes sharp as cats claws and
which grip the ground just as cats claws
would.
You can see that this specially treated
wire. incorporated in the tire as it is
actually made part Of the tire--eannot
lessen the tires resiliency or easy riding
qualities.
And you can also see that the car
running on tires with this positive road
grip is as nearly absolutely immune
from skid and side-sIip as human in
genuity can make il.
We do not claim that they will out
wear any six other tires--we don't ex-
Pect them to--but we want you 10 try
them for your own comfort and safety.
They do not destroy the tires natural
resilieney; do not cause the tires to Jolt
the life out Of your engine; do not de-
tract the smallest mite from the cars
comfort or ease Of riding.
Hartford Wire Grip Non-Skid Tires
are legal anywhere spd everywhere you
will drive your car and do not iniure
pavements or roads.
No heavy limousine, landaulet, tour
ing car or even the runabout should be
without this protection against accident.
They are as necessary as the ire or ha-
bility insurance on your car.
The price Is merely a reasonable ad-
vance over the plain tread easine--to
cover the increased cost OF manufaeture--
but this extra cost fades into insignifi-
eanee when you consider the added COM
fort and safety afforded you in the in
suranee against skidding or side-sIipping.
