CHANDLER MOTOR OAR.

The Chandler is a standardized car.
 It has the Bosch ATagneto, standard on
 the highest class of cars throughout the world It has a Westinghouse electric starter, and a Westinghouse electric generator. We believe the
 Chandler in these particulars more nearly approaches standard practice than does our competitor who, we understand, combines his starting, lighting and ignition system in one unit Westinghouse electric goods are recognized as standard all over the world, and we believe it is also ad- rr1itted that any car without a Bosch Nagneto does not measure up to the highest standard of ignition practice.
 The Chandler has left side-drive and centre control-features rapidly be- coming standard on the best cars. It has a genuine stream line body, and no car without this feature measures up standard. The Chandler has a full tenn power plant, a Raybestos and steel multiple disc clutch-an stand ardized features of construction and design, Is equipped with F'irestone de- uountable rims, deep Turkish uphol- sterinR in the body, clean running boards. free from obstruction or at tachments, easy entrance to drivers 8 seat from either left or right, Mayo high class radiator used by builders of $5.0O0 cars, tires carried in the rear. gasoline tank suspended in the rear, easily accessible for ~dIling-large gas oline capacity, and gauge showing at a glance amount of gasoline in tank.

Where but a single headlight, mounted high in the center of the dash, is employed, it is the complaint of drivers of approach ing machines that the position of the offending car cannot be made out. It Is usually assumed that the vehicle is equipped with two lights, one of which is not illuminated, but whether 1t is the right or left headlight that Is burning there is no way of know Ing, and. therefore, it is impossible to tell whether the car is on or off the road.

Long Life i'm Cities.

New York Tribune: Life Is long
er in the German cities than in the
small towns. This is the discovery
announced by the German statistical
bureau, which has published figures
showing that SAG persons in each
1000 in cities of more than 100, 900
inhabitants reach the age of so, COM
pared with $50 reaching the same
age in cities between 10000 and
100000 and 544 in towns of fewer
than 10000 inhabitants.
These figures pay a remarkable
tribute to German efficiency" said
Professor A. Fraenkel, director of
the municipal hospital of Berlin.
1--WE believe that speed in the cit
les tends to shorten life, but it helps
to cure our other evils. We believe
that one of the principal reasons for
life being longer in cities is that
medical attention is prompt and ex-
pert at the same time. In small
towns there are fewer physicians
and hospitals, and often a patient
dies when efficiency might have
saved his life.
Another great reason for longer
life is the success of the recent cam
paign aimed at saving babies in the
large cities through giving free in
struction and assistance 10 mothers
in the care of infants and providing
pure milk, free nurseries and sup
plies.
This is difficult matter in the
smaller cities because of the lack of
organization. The result is that 39
more babies in every 1000 live
through the first year than was the
case 10 years ago."

Coffin 800 Years Old.

Japan Weekly Chronicle. There
is an Inari shrine in the town of
Okushi, Ibaraki prefecture, in the
compound of which some building
operations are going on. The labor
ers engaged in leveling the ground
were digging the other day when
they unearthed large stone coffin.
The news was Immediately COM
municated to the chief priest, who
sent for the head man of the village.
In his presence the cover of the stone
coffin was taken off, and inside were
found many gold rings and other
treasures, such as kudatama, magat-
ANA and other ancient vessels. Judg-
ing from the construction of the cof-
fin, it is 1900 years old News of
the discovery was forwarded to the
local government office, and an Of
ficial was sent to examine the arti
cles found.
The shrine itself is very ancient
one, and in it Kuraine-tama-nomi-
koto is deified. 1t was for while
removed from the village by the COM
mand of Mitsukuni Tokugawa, lord
of Mito, but in 1902 it was taken
back to it's former site. Some earth
was taken from the. compound of the
great Inari shrine at Yamashiro,
Kyoto, and placed under the main
building of this shrine with formal
ceremony. Since then it had been
customary for the Daimyo Of Mito to
bear the expense for repairs to the
shrine, and one of his retainers was
always sent as a special messenger
at festival times.

Production and Importation of
GRAPHITE,

Natural graphite is the product of
different geologic agencies, mostly
related to the heat of the molten
magma which, during periods of con-
vulsion, has penetrated the everything
rock strata from the earth's interior.
1t has two forms-crystallin or, as
it is konwn to the trade, flake"
graphite, which occurs as small
flakes disseminated through crystal
line schists, and amorphous graphite,
which has no grain or structure.
Coal beds in some places have been
turned into graphite by the confined
heat of intruded molten rock, and
this natural phenomenon may have
suggested the feasibility of manufac-
turing artificial amorphous graphite,
an industry which of late years has
become of considerable Importance
in the United States. Importations
of graphite, however, largely exceed
domestic production, the figures for
| 1912, according to the United States
Geological Survey, being for the i'm
ports 25,643 short tons, valued at
$1,709,337, and for the domestic
output 2,445 tons of natural graph
ite, valued at $207,O33, and 6,44S
tons of manufactured graphite, val
ued at $S30,193. The island of Cey-
lon is the greatest contributor to
American imports of graphite.
Graphite is a mineral Of great and
increasing industrial Importance and
has many uses, though tho graphite
from any one source or mine is not
adapted to all these uses. One of
the oldest and most important ap-
plications of graphite is in the man.

Ground Ceylon lump graphite is the
material most in favor in the United
States for making crucibles, although
small amounts of American flake
graphite are also used. Amorphous
graphite has never been successfully
utilized in cru'cible manufacture, ex-
cept for very small crucibles.
The United States Geological Sur.
vey has just published, as an ad
vance chapter from Mineral Re-
sources for 1912, report on the
graphite industry in the United
States by Edison S. Bastin, which
also includes figures of importations
into this country as we'll as statistics
covering other graphite producing
countries.

Fatalities to Railroad Trespassers,

Fatalities to Railroad Trespassers.
To explain or place the RESPONSE
bility for American railway accidents
it is desirable to consider not only
the extraordinary totals, but sepa-
rately the various classes into which
the casualties are grouped. Every
day IA people in the United States
are killed while trespassing, but this
is through no fault of the railways,
whose right of way is not highway,
but private property, subject to the
same rules and protection as the
property of an individual.
In the 20 years from 1S9O-1909,
inclusive, fatalities to trespassers
constituted $500 per cent of all the
United States. In this period 163,-
III persons were killed, of whom
S6,733 were trespassers, nor has the
situation shown any improvement
as the 1912 statistics quoted above
show, since they form so per cent Of
the total fatalities of that year.
In Chicago, where track elevation
has proceeded at cost of $70,000,'
600 to the present time, trespassine
in violation of the law takes place
on the elevated structures to such &
degree that the railways have t
maintain special police service. II

Modern Rifle Wounds.

Wounding an enemy in war Is bet
ter than killing him, says Popular
Mechanics. Unless he is captured it
imposes on his side the burden OF
taking care of him. The Balkan war
has again proven that the bullet of
the modern high-power rifle, with its
terrific speed, will go straight
throught through man, penetrating
the most vital organs, without kill
ing him; and it has even been found
to go through from four to six men,
one behind the other. This puts
them out of the fight, but at the
same time it is good thing for the
fighter, for it gives him a far better
chance for his life.

Objections to New expressions,

Always, indeed, in the history of
every tongue men have insisted on
maintaining firm stand against the
entrance into it of new expressions
of any sort. In so doing they have
honestly believed that they were act
uated not by a senseless but a holy
zeal for purity of speech. The
strongest sort of opposition has been
frequently offered to the recognition
of words which it would now seem to
us we could hardly do without. The
feeling existed in high places. In
1913 the fourth edition of Johnson S
dictionary was published. 1t was the
last edition which appeared under
his own supervision. Boswell tells
us that he in vain urged Johnson to
