THE SOLAR SYSTEM.
Its Flight Through Space Toward the

Its Flight Through Space Toward the
Constellation Lyra.
In what direction are you moving1
If you are going toward the Battery
you viii answer SOUTH" IL up Broad
way you will answer NORTH" toward
the Hudson you will say west" and
If in the direction Of the East river
you will reply east"
These answers might be correct as
regards the surface of the earth. but
they may be far from answering the
question. for the earth is turning east
wardly at the rate of about a thousand
miles an hour. which carries you in
that direction very much faster thai
you can move over the ground.
But that rotating motion. constantly
changing your direction in relation to
all outside the earth, is quite subordi-
nate to another far more rapid motion
that is carrying you and the earth
around the sun eastwardly On an en-
tirely different curve at the rate of
about nine miles a second. ever chang
ing your direction in relation to the
stars in a circular path 279.0O0,0O0
miles long.
Yet that isn't key to your direc-
ton. for little you. your tiny earth and
your third rate sun, with all Of its
planets, are travelling as a united group
in one direction. differing from all
those mentioned. Find the large first
magnitude blush white star Vega, in
the constellation of Lyra, and you will
be looking in the direction of the fight
that our system is taking through
space. If you will observe the stars
around Vega for few hundred years
you will find that they are apparently
slowly separating, while the stars at
the opposite pole of the heavens are
slowly drawing together. That means
we are moving toward Vega and
away from the opposite point This
motion is in a circle that cannot be
exactly measured, but there is evi-
dence to show that it will require
1S.200000 years for our system to
complete 1t.
Then can you ans 81 am moving
toward Vega" Perhaps so. but more
likely perhaps not. for it is far from
unlikely that you and your solar sys-
tenn. with Vega and all of the galaxy
Of stars that eye can see on the clear

eral direction around some great COM

A Spare Fuel Tank.

Where gravity feed is used for the
fuel supply to the carburetor the fuel
tank is usually fitted as high as posi-
Bile under the drivers seat, this giving
just about sufficient head of fuel to
allow of satisfactory working on or
dinary give and take roads. However,
when touring through hilly districts it
is found that at times there is diff
Guilty in maintaining the proper fuel
feed to the carburetor. so that just at
the time when most fuel is needed
less is obtained. To get over this diff
hculty a spare tank can be fitted at
the forward end of the car and con-
nected to the carburetor, so that the
fact of having hill climbing to do would
allow of really higher head of fuel
to be supplied to the carburetor, so
that no difficulty in climbing the worst
OF hills can be caused by failure of the
fuel supply.

A MANS GLOVE.
In the Old Days It Served as Proxy

For Its Owner.
In the early days everything was not
regulated for the people as it is now
by the government and the law courts
Europe was still young then, and peo-
pie had rough and ready means of
dealing with one another. of buying
and selling or giving goods and prop
erty and settling disputes. A glove.
as it was very close indeed to a mans
hand, came in course of time to be
looked upon as taking the place of the
hand itself. and sometimes took the
mans place and was made to represent
him.
necessary then to have the consent and
protection of the great lord in whose
country it was going to be held. Those
who wished to open the fair would
come to the nobleman and petition him
to be present. He might be very
go, yet he would know that it must be
opened or his people would be discon-
tented So he would say to the lead
ers of the people: mo. my trusty fel-
lows, can't open the fair in person.
but will send my glove to do it. You
all know my glove. Nobody has one
like it in the country. 1t is the one
my lady mother embroidered for me in
colored silks and silver wire. and it
has deep violet fringe. You can
hang it above the entrance of your
fair grounds as sign that you are
acting with my permission. If any one
disputes your right or touches his mas
ter's glove will attend to him. That's
all!' So the glove would travel in
state to open the Westminster
Gazette.

BEWARE OF TlGHTWAp.

At the close of a big Pennsylvania
fair last year. where the poultry en-
try was nearly 10000 and 100000
visitors by actual count viewed the
poultry exhibit, reporter asked a
poultry judge why the poultry end at
that fair was such a success. while
at fair a short distance away the
poultry exhibit was such a fzzle.
"Tightwad," said the judge. "At this
fair they house, feed and coop the
birds free. offer big cash prizes and
$1,000 worth of silver cups and treat
the fanciers like kings. At the other
fair they are too stingy even to feed
the chickens"
Tightwad is certainly bad disease,
especially if its complicated with fos-
sill. Fossiliferous tightwad has knock

chamois as a Strainer.

1t should be understood that no diff
ficulty need be experienced in strain
ing gasoline through a chamois skin.
When the chamois skin in the funnel
is dry pour water upon it and see if it
will go through. Then while the leath-
er still is wet with water try to pour
gasoline through and to the surprise
of many it will not go at all. The
conclusion reached is that water will
not pass through a porous substance
saturated with gasoline and that the
same is true as regards gasoline pass
ing through when the substance is first
saturated with water. 1t will be found
that the separating value depends
upon the fact that gasoline and water
will not mix and that in order to pass
through the chamois liquid must mix
with the liquid which fills the pores Of
the leather. If when the leather is
dry small portion is wet with water
and then the rest with gasoline, both
water and gasoline may be poured
through the funnel, each choosing only
that portion wet originally by the
same liquid.

when The
MOTOR JERKS
Real Cause Of Trouble Can Be
Traced to COmmutdtOT.
BRUSHES MAY Be WORN OUT.

Many Times It Will Be Found That
Springs Which Cause Contact Be.
tween Brushes and ArmaturA Are
Not Long Enough.
When an engine fires in a jerky man.
ner one Of the possible causes Of the
trouble may be found in the commu-
tator, where the springs behind the
commutator brushes may be out Of
order. After the brushes have been
worn down by long usage it will some
times be found that the springs which
are necessary to cause the contact be-
tween the brushes and the armature
are not long enough to serve this pur-
pose, with the result that good con-
tact is not made when the armature
is revolving rapidly. The aggrsvat-
ing part of this sort of trouble is that
1t is very hard to locate, especially as
everything works all right when the
commutator is tested when the engine
is not running. If there is trouble
with the ignition Nnd all of the other
parts of the apparatus are found to be
in good order it will be a good plan
to lengthen the springs so that firm
contact can be secured.

Smoky Exhausts.

100 much fabrication is a most fer
tile cause of smoky exhausts. This is
often due to too much oil being put in
the crank case at one time. Less oil,
but more often. is better Cleaning
out the cylinders with kerosene and
allowing the mixed oil in the crank
case to remain is another cause Of
smoky exhausts. Too rich a mixture
Will cause smoke, as will the use Of
inferior grades of lubricating oil. If
the motor is equipped with good oil
ing system and one that can be prop
erly regulated, take minute to adjust
it. Leaky valves will cause a smoky
exhause. but not to the extent of the
other causes.

Ouakers Never Nervous

1t is not in my memory that pro-
Tossing Quaker ever came into my
hands to be treated for nervousness.
If the opinion l have already stated so
often is correct, namely. that want of
control of the emotions and the over
expression of the feelings are prime
causes of nervousness, then the fact
that discipline OF the emotions is a les
son early and constantly taught by
Friends would help to account for the
infrequency Of this disorder among
them and add emphasis to the belief
in such causation.-From "Self Help
For Nervous Women" by DIR. Kearsley
