A German Title.

From the London Chronicle.
In the matter of titles the Germans show
more courage than we do. On a New

When this was shown to German friend

was entitled "Staatsschuldentilgun

she held to be her due as the widow Of ar

which is eighty-nine miles distant by
rail. The one bar to a great trade in
automobiles in China at the present time
is the narrowness of the average streets
and the dearth OF respectable roads.
Many Of the latter are merely winding
tracks for carts. The main vehicle
seen outside OF the cities is the heavy
wooden two-wheeled cart drawn by
horses and donkeys.

Inc manager OF Mannheim firm of
automobile dealers is now in the United
states to look over the field of low
priced American cars. The concern which
ne represents was organized in 1904 with
capital of $4,000 During the nasi
year the firms business amounted 10
nearly $4,000, and a dividend of 10 per
cent was declared. There seems to be
sroWlng demand in Germany for a cheap
er car than is produced in that country
lt was the intention of the Mannheim firm
10 manufacture small car with the view
10 trying 1t on the market. but its MEM
bers came to the conclusion that they
would give the American small ears a
trial first. The necessity as observed i'm
the majority of foreign countries of hav-
ing the parts in stock for the immediate
replacement OF broken parts obtains also
in Germany. 1t is almost impossible to
lind repair parts in cases where the
American firm has no representative in
the German cities. A good stock of parts
for repairs is a profitable stock in re-
serve. The demand for smaller cars all
over Germany seems to be quite general.

The Forehead and Health.
From the Lopdon Globe.


The forehead is the first feature OF the
face to show indisposition. The minute
ones stomach is out of order there will
be yellow spots on the brow When one
feels faint the forehead will instantly
show it. When one is sick there will be
freckles and pimples upon the brow
which was smooth and clear before The
forehead is as good an indication of ones
general health as is the pulse.

Look to Americans.

Having experience in America with bad
roads, the American manufacturer is
looked upon as the most likely to fill the
bill for cars to suit Australian require
ments.
In addition to the makes Of cars men
toned above, the K. r. l. T., Mitchell,
Marion, Parry and Paige-Detroit have all
found agents in Australia. Each agent is
guaranteeing fair number of orders,
and the prospect of the future seems that
agents will have to force the sale of
american cars in order to get rid of their
consignments. Most of these agencies
have been placed by house of manufac-
turers' agents which deals principally in
American products.
Taking into consideration that every
agent in Australia mas several British and
continental agencies to look after. 1t is
hardly probable that he will be easily in
duced to accept another line of American
cars, SO that makers who are not already
represented will have to look for new
companies starting business or they will
have to induce the present agents to drop
a European line in favor of their cars.
Now, as matter of fact. the European
manufacturer is getting alarmed at the
American invasion, and at the present A.

out representatives to secure their con-
tracts. In each of these instances sample
cars accompanied the representative.
Some five years ago it will be remembered
that the REQ and Rambler both had sent
representatives to Australia. The bust
ness which resulted, as far as the REQ is
concerned, was very good, considering the
great prejudice they had to contend
against. and it may be necessary again
for manufacturers to send out representa-
tives with cars for the establishing Of
pushing agents

Large Cars Unstable.

Manufacturers who desire to have q
market should bear in mind that large
cars are quite unstable in Australia, as
the wealth OF the people is not so great
as it is in England and America, or, in
other words, inherited fortunes and chances
of being nillionaires are very few indeed
The average ambitious Australian has d
good, steady income, which permits him
to own a moderate sized car, and any car
over 23-horsepower and weighing more
than twenty-five hundredweSht will stand
a poor chance of business in the future
AS tires have to face a tariff of % per
cent and the cost of transport from Eu-
rope in addition. the Australian motorist
considers the tire bill before anything
else. so that light cars, ranging from H.
horsepower to 2o-hoIsepower will COM
mand the best part of the market.
The firm of Roy w. Sanford of Sydney
which handled the Cadillac with success

big cars recently, and found it no easy
task to sell them on account of their size

ing four cylinders and magnetic ignition

many an owner of a large, expensive car
will speculate in a cheap and neat run
about just for the fun of having it, and
another demand is coming from CONNER
cial travellers, etc, as our railways, etc.
