Rin-C Cutting Avoided

You get another advantage. You
get the only practical tire which can
not be rim-cut when you run it fat.
We have sold half million No Rim
Cut tires. We have run them Dictated
in hundred tests-as far as 20 miles.
In all this experience there has never
been a single instance of rim-cutting.
These No Rim Cut tires fit any
standard quick-detachable rim-any
demountable rim. The removable rim
hanges are simply set to curve out
ward NOT inward as with clincher
tires. The tire then comes against a
rounded edge - not the sharp edge
which cuts hooked-base tire.
No-Rim-Cut tires have no hooks on
the base. They don't need to be
hooked or bolted to the rim.
The reason lies in IS braided piano
wires vulcanized into the base. These
braided wires make the tire base I'M
stretchable. Nothing can force the

BIRDS IN THE CENSUS
HELP TO SWELL TOTAL

kota, Has a Nest Full
of Bindings.

There are a lot Of Birds" counted In
the last census of the United States to
make the population that owes allegiance
to the Stars and Stripes about Ion. O00, 900.
At that, no animals were counted in this
total.
Among the Birds that were counted
was a bird Of family out in North Da-
kota. They were OF the same race as
Minnehaha; but even though they are
Birds there il nothing as musical as
that in their names. The head OF the
family told the census enumerator that
he was Lying Bird" and the enumera-
tor reported that name to Uncle Sans
headquarters in this city. He also re-
ported the squaw's name as 1.-TWO
Tears" but the routine clerk gives no
linking in his report as to the domestic
relations. One meets SO many Longs.
whose growths stopped when their teens
began, and SO many Eariys. who are for

The nest they call home also contains
some little Birds" and In naming them
the parents kept a sense Of the appropri-
ate. They are Big Bird, Little Bird. Rose
Bird, Blue Bird, Red Bird and Singing
Bird. Swallow has been suggested by
census bureau clerks for the next child.
1t wouldn't do to have an O'Riley or a
Slalfwagengarten or q Pedro Macaroni
around such a family. and the head OF the
household was artistic in the selection OF
his help. The man who does the chores
around the tepee bears the name OF Pep
permint. All of this is shown by reports
which the census bureau clerks have been
going over.
All the married men I'm the census bu-
reau were touched by the frankness Of
the New York woman who gave her oc-
cupation as that OF ''mother-in-law." An
unidentified "son-in-law" is the object OF
some sympathy on the part Of the bene-
diets in the bureau; others arc hoping
she will not extend her business to the
National Capital.
