Goodyear No-Rim-Cut tires are never less than 10 per cent over the rated size.
 Actual comparison was lately made with five leading makes of clincher tires. And No-Rim-Cut tires, measured by air capacity, averaged 16.7 per cent larger.
 But call the oversize merely 10 per cent. That means 10 per cent more air-10 per cent added carrying capacity. And that, with the average car, adds 25 per cent to the tire mileage.

LOVE THAT'S KIN 10 HATE.
(By Ruth CamerOn.)

$50 each man kills the thing he
loves,
BY each let this be heard;
Oscar Wilde.
Love is the most beautiful thing
in the world; hate is the ugliest
hing; the two are commonly sup
rcsed to be opposite poles. And yet
how often love is just as cruel and
just as much a happiness destroyer
as hate.
There is a woman who loves her
son very dearly-so dearly in fact
that she is doing her best to spoil
his home. Her son is married to a
good woman whom he loves and
who loves him; he has a comfortable
income; he has children; he and his
enjoy good health. There is no rea-
son why his home should not be a
model of harmony and happiness eX-
cept that his mother loves him with
this love that is more cruel than
hate She is Il widow and has lived
with him since his marriage. His
wife has always tried to make her
comfortable and happy, but she re-
fuses to be either, and everything
that the wife does she misconstrucs
ard often misreprescnts TO her son.
Fortunately he is IA man with a
strong sense of justice and infinite
| tact. and. while he treats his mother
with the utmost love and kindness,
he refuses to let her spoil his love
for his wife.
| am not forgetting that there are
two sides TO everything. But this is
the description of witness who
has lived in the home for some years
and who went there prejudiced in
the mothers favor.
