The ablest men we could find h;
years, worked to perfect these tires.
Years ago, in our factory. they
built a tire-testing machine. This
machine wears out four tires at a
time. under all sorts of road condi-
tons.
On this machine they have tested
over 200 fabrics, and some 40 for
mulas for treads.
Every method and process has
he1e been put to the ultimate test
of mileage.
New ideas have been constantly
compared with the old. Rival tires
have been compared with our
own.

WHEN THE EARTH PASSES.

Concerning the carrying power Of
the open air speakers voice, Sir
Mountstuart Grant Duff notes that an
Oxford citizen who had travelled in the
United States, told him that he had
himself heard what Colonel Thompson,
the secretary Of the navy, was saying
at meeting in Indiana at a distance
of half a mile.
The same traveller quoted the reply
of another American orator, Mr.. Cor
win to an interruption. A man on the
edge Of crowd at Buffalo kept clam
oring Louder, louder!" Finally the
speaker retOrted:
AT the last day, when heaven and
earth shall pass away like a scroll.
when the Ancient Of Days shall sit on
his great white throne, thousands and
tens Of thousands of the heavenly host
ranged on his right hand and on his left,
when the Archangel blows the trumpet
that shall rend the tombstones and
wake the dead, some fool from Buffalo
will be heard shouting Louder, loud

Caleb Henderson and the widow
Clymer might never have been heard
OF but for an old red bull that got
loose on the highway one day and en-
tered the widows gate and drove her
up a cherry tree and frightened her
so that she had headaches for a week
after She was rescued after a while
by Caleb, who was her hired man, and
had been for a year.
The bull was game, and he knocked
over a barrel Of soft soap, smashed in
the smokehouse door and uprooted
seven currant bushes, but he had to
go Up to this hour there had been
no feeling of love between the hired
man and widow He was twenty-five
years old and she was ten years older
She owned a nice farm, and he wasn't
worth a hundred dollars, but he had
done no scheming
1t was after the defeated and crest
y fallen bull had departed and the
widow had dropped from her perch to
the ground with a thud that love
came to both hearts at one and the
same moment, Cupid gave double
dose without extra charge There vas
an engagement, and there was talk
OF having the marriage come off along
about Christmas, this being early sum-
mer.
For two months Caleb Henderson
was happy man, and was proud over
the congratulations he received, 1t
was generally said that the widow
was little too old for him, but IL
was always added that 1t was a nice
farm and well stocked. In the midst
Of his great happiness trouble de-
scended Caleb was mending a fence
one day when two young ladies from
the summer hotel mile away came
wandering over the field after daisies.

That meant the husband OF the angel
sitting beside him and eating half
ripe blackberries as fast as he could
pick them.
The widow had said she would keep
an eye on Caleb, and she didn't forget.
She was cognizant Of that Irritation
in no time, and from Calebs looks
and bearing she knew that he had
been hard hit and was wondering
how to break with her. She gave him
rope to see what he would do The
plan he followed was proposed by the
girl tlirt, who laughed for an hour
after she left him. The plan to
Checkmate him was born in the wild
ows own brain, and was surrounded
by grim smiles.
One evening, after Caleb had kept
up his new and strange attitude for
a week or more, and after he had
hitched around In nervous way for
many minutes, he said:
Cynthia, was wrong about none
Of my family ever having tits."

That night as Caleb slept and
dreamed Of his city angel two young
farmers entered his room and tied him
fast, He awoke as they were remoy-

reply to his demands and eXclamations
the widow soothingly said;

man, and we must restrain you bit"
"But I'm not insane!"
"Oh, yes, you are, They always
say that There's a nice bed OF straw,
