They Really Had Their Origin In the
First French Revolution.
The restaurant Of the present time
had its origin in the first French revo-
luton, toward the close Of the eight
zenith century. And the reputation of
the French for good cookery and the
delicacy Of taste in eating as well as
in producing toothsome dishes and
morsels dates practically from the
same time.
That revolution meant ruin to many
noble families. and their downfall
meant ruin also for their chefs. so
some OF the latter hit upon the idea
of opening houses where dainties pre-.
pared by their skilled hands could be
obtained. II the experiment succeed.

q large business, and the proprietors
had no reason to regret the revolution
from a monetary point Of view.
Then it. occurred to others that the
people might appreciate being educat
ed up to this fine cookery. and many
books on the culinary art were pub
lished and sold well. One of the most
noted Of these was THE Gourman Al

Washington, April z9.-Fear that

Automobile owners everywhere are
pretty well agreed that in choosing
car. the first and most important thing
Is to choose the maker. The purchase
OF an automobile involves a sufficient
amount to warrant very thorough in
vestigation as to his status.
The buyer of today expects his car
to continue in service for many years.
The older makes are SO well standard
lied. and little hcanges appear from
year to year that the quality of a car
like the Rambler and it's value will
remain the same throughout several
years of service.
In choosing a maker. the first re-
quirement Is that of stability. The fin
ances OF the maker should be known
to be sound that there may be no
question about the permanency of the
source of parts supply.
Experience may be considered next.
as all other things being equal, that
manufacturer who has longest been
building automobiles, should know
what design Is most efficient and relia.
BILE, and what material Ia best suited
TO the purposes of the different parts.
He has also had time to build an or
ganization and establish standard OF
workmanship that will insure the pro-
per application of design and material.
Study the advertising of the maker IL
you want to know about his character.
AS we Judge people by what they say

upon confidence to gradually build up
a permanent business
The well established maker has
fixed policy; his prices are fixed. That
policy is known to his customers, and
from the most reliable concerns, it
Is possible to get definite statement
of the policy of the house.
The independence of the maker is
vital, as 1t is only through his indie
pendence that the purchaser may have

claims of the maker, and the assur-

Find out, IL you can, what progress
the maker has made; what his past
successes have been. Any buyer may
safely invest his money with a manu-
facturer who has progressed steadily
and surely without quick. sensational
expansion at the risk of stability.
Considering the matter from the
owners standpoint. appearance, per-
haps. strikes the purchaser first, but
when 1t comes to demonstration of
actual use. comfort is always demand
ed by the experienced buyer. The
question of comfort has many sides,
and every point which effects 1t must
be considered. 1t was once thought
that IL the springs were properly flex-

springs must be SO attached as to
eliminate the side sway. Shock alb
sorbers are necessary to soften the
impact of severe jolts, and limit any

should be adjustable to suit the differ

The wheel base should be long to
neutralize the inequalities of the road
and the larger the diameter Of
the wheels, the less shocks of any
kind will be transmitted to the pass

The position or the steering wheel
