There is mother principle alive in
all nature which never dies. This is
different from the mother instinct, the
mother passion. The oak and the

constants Of being. The mother in

sharp order from his assistant the

MAGNETIC
PROVES WINNER
Mea, a German Product, Taking
Many Prizes in Competitive
Tests.

Europe and America are watch
ING a new magnetic which is gain
ing fame abroad. The latest
success of this magneto, which is
called the Mea, was made in a
race across the hills in Craigan-
let Ireland a few weeks ago,
when it was awarded two first
prizes. These Magnetos were
carried in this race ON a Gregoire
and a Nom motor car, and though
the test was extraordinary the
magnetos responded to the unus-
ual demands with absolutely
perfect scores.
Another triumph for the Mea
came in the Grand Prix de IA.
Z. f., at the races at Dieppe,
France, considered the most i'm
Portant Of all foreign motor car
events. This race was won by
a PeugOt car fitted with the Mea.
This achievement is all the more
remarkable because of the fact
that the races in both places
were controlled by competitive
products, and the magnetos were.
all selected from stock and the
awards were made on the basis
OF unmistakable merit.
The winning cars carried only
one magnetic each, so the entire
fortune of each entry depended
on the Mea Magnetic, while all
competing makes carried an extra
or reserve magnetic on each rae
ing car to guard against failure.
The Mea Magnetic has made
numerous records which have
gained it great popularity, and
it is said the apparatus will be
strongly in evidence in America
in the year 1914.
The Mea is manufactured in

It was Roy Bacon whom Cecile re-

ODD FACTS ABOUT PEARLS
They Must Have Air and Light to
Retain Their Beauty and
Brilliancy.

One popularity Of the pearl Is
that to retain its beauty and brlllian-
cy it must have air and light. In
1878 an Indianapolis man possessed
himself Of two small, pear-shaped
pearls that were found IN mussel
shells in the Wabash river near New
Harmony. He saws that, intending
10 have them mounted as earrings at
some future time, he put them away
wrapped in writing paper in dark
corner OF a drawer, where the paper
was left unopened for ten years.
When the paper was opened what
was his astonshmcnt to find what
had been these beautiful pearls was
only a white powder, merely carbo-
nate Of lime.
The pearl is the oldest object Of
personal adornment. The records Of
the Babylonians, Egyptians, Per-
slams and Romans make mention OF
the pearl. The wife of the Emperor
Caligula at betrothal feast deco
rated herself with pearls to the value
of 81 100000. Julius Caesar pre-
scented Servilia, the mother of Bru-
tus, Of whom it was said he was the
lover. with a pearl valued AT $3.50
