BELGIUM WAR PLANS.
Preparations to Enforce the Neu.

Liege, Belgium Aug. 30.-An in
tense sensation has been created
among the Belgian people, especial
Il near the boundries of France
and Germany by the military pre-
cautions which are being put into
effect by the Belgian Government.
A military council was held yes
terday to consider measures to pre-
serve the neutrality of the country
in the event of war between France
and Germany, as to prevent the vio-
lation of Belgian territory by either
combatant or by Great Britain If
that country becomes involved in
the conflict. Large supplies of shells
for the frontier forts and rife am
munition have been sent to the
posts.
Brussels, Aug. 30.-Special trains
carrying sixty field guns, twelve
Hitchkiss guns and five carloads OF
mmunition arrived today at Namur
from Antwerp.
The government appears to be
making numerous arrangements in

AUTO ENGINE CLEANER
Invention of An Article Indispensable
to tho Automobile Owner Brought
Out in Marsh IItown.

The bringing out OF something new
to cut down the expense OF car opera

an article by w. W. Johnston to re

out the descending Of the motor or
the usual crude and incomplete way
OF soaking the accumulation loose With
hydrocarbon oils.
Carbon deposits in the automobile
engine are said by well posted car deal

difficult things 10 contend with in Sc
curing engine efficiency and fuel econ
ony in country road travel and it is
claimed that the life of the engine that
is kept free from carbon is more than
double that OF the one neglected aud

process will certainly prove boon to
the car owner who has been paving

The process is purely mechanical to

making it different from airy ideas
heretofore advanced. Mr.. Johnston
has been working on tEis idea since
the beginning of his automobile career
and being one of the oldest dealers in
The state he has had ample time and
opportunity to bring out perfected
device.
One of the large factories in the
east has pronounced the new process
a complete success and those who
have tried it express very favora hle
opinion. A stock company Will be or
