= UPON THE SAND y
BY ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

A LII love that has not friendship for its base
N Is like a mansion built upon the sand
Though brave its walls any in the land
And its tall turrets lift their heads in grace;
Though skilful and accomplished artists trace
Most beautiful designs on every hand
And cleaning statues in dim inches stand
And fountains play in some fow'r-hidden place
Yet when from the frowning east sudden gust
OF adverse fate is blown, or sad rains fall
Day in, day out, against its yielding wall,
Lo! the fair structure crumbles to dust.
Love, to endure lifes sorrow and earth's woe,
Needs friendships solid masonwork below

''BIG TIM," ANGRY,
TRIES TO ESCAPE
FROM HIS NURSE

{ New York, April 3-That big Tim
Sullivan is chatting under the re-
stratnt to which he has been sub
jected since he was adjudged incom-
petent became known yesterday with
the story of an adventure of the pa
tient in the Bronx on Tuesday.
Mr.. Sullivan was accompanied by a
male nurse who had come with him
from the home of Patrick Sullivan, in
Westchester, to which place Mr.. Sui
Iivan had been removed on Sunday
last from DR.. Bonds sanitarium, in
Yonkers. Mr.. Sullivan accosted a po-
Hceman of the Westchester station in
Eastchester road on Tuesday af-
ternoon and said he wanted to be di-
rected to the police station. He re-
ceived the proper directions and with
the nurse called at the Westchester
station
There he asked Lieutenant Smith if
he could see Captain J. L. thinner
man, the precinct commander. He
was told the Captain was out, but
would be back in an hour. Mr. Sulli-
van, it is said, then told the Iieuten-
ant he was being detained in his
brothers home against his will
The lieutenant tried to persuade him
that he had better return to his broth
er's home, but he refused, saying they
intended to keep him prisoner there.

properly built upholstery can be made
to add the final touch of luxury. The
problem becoes one for both the en-
g1neer and the uphoIsterer and even
the work of an engineer is necessary,
for the deepest cushions do not seem
to give satisfactory riding ease I'M
less properly constructed.
The first place to get at easy riding
in the chassis is in the spring sus-
pension. In this particular feature
the Locomobile offers a conspicuous
example of what can be done in the
springs to secure easy riding The
rear springs act only to carry the load
and are not in any way part of the
drive system. They are shackled
at both ends and are entirely free to
act since the drive is all taken up
results in shocks being taken up in
the action Of the spring leaves before
they reach the chassis
In the upholstery, depth, cushion
springs, seat width and many other
features were carefully considered be-
fore LocomobiIe ten inch cushions
were brought out. Since women are
more susceptible to the influence of
easy riding, comfort in the uphoI-
stery was put square1y up to women.
Over SO critical women all accustom-
ed to the use of high grade cars tried
OUT LocomOp1le IO inch upholstery,
before it was finally adopted. They
sat in the car, rode around town and
took long tours, many times at a speed
that was impossible in a car using
the Older type of upholstery.
AT the same time women tested out
the height of the step from the ground
to the running board and from the
running board to the tonneau. They
tried the width of the floor for easy
entrance, adding the question of con-
venienca to that of comfort.
It is now the usual experience for
LoconobiIe owners to drive ESQ to 800
miles a day. During the touring sea-
son many Locomobf1e parties drive up
to my sa1esroom at the end of these
exceptionally long tours, and I fail
to recall any instance where they have
shown any evidence of fatigue.

Cars For vacation Use.

The motor car has settled, once and
for all, that old question, How shall
spend my Vacation? ?" for thousands
of people. Since the advent of the
automobile, the old jokes about har-
assed individuals being buried I'M
der avalanches of railroad timetables
and literature, do not apply. The
first breath of spring no longer means
the beginning of a long and arduous
study of railroad and steamship fold
ers, describing, with more or less ac-
curacy,- but much establishment, the
wonders and glories of various and
sundry summer resorts. When March
begins going out like q lamb now, the
first thought of the prospective vaca-
zionist Is, "How's the carp What
stretches before his imagination is the
vista of cool, shaded country roads,
green fields, hills and valleys. Every
year thousands more Americans are
taking their vacations in a motor car,
and enjoying every minute of them.
They come back from those trips rest

Putting easy riding on a mathe-
NAUTICAL basis is a new way of getting
at comfort says a dealer for the
Looomobi1e Company of America. But
that is the way the problem has been
approached by Locomobi1e Engineers.
For the past few years there has been
a steadily increasing tendency among
buyers of high grade cars to consid-
er the question of how a car rides be-
fore they place their order. In MAX
ing dem tons we are often asked
to drive over rough roads and with
our cars it is a pleasure for US to
make this test. A fact which few of
US realize but which is oftentines
painfully true, is that driving over
ordinary city streets is about the
hardest test you can make of the real
riding ease of a car, Uneven pave
ments, broken asphalt, numerous
street car crossings and unpaved side
streets all present difficulties which
are frequently harder to surmount
than even the toughest country roads.
Pavements result in a rapid series of
short, quick jerks that produce a
most disagreed BILE and firing vibration
unless they are absorbed in proper
seat cushions. Street car crossings
and holes in the asphalt, like deep
ruts, produce a severe jouncing STRAIN
that must be taken up in the springs
In building a car that will ride COM
fortably under the varied conditions
of driving about town and taking long
cross country tours. two features must
be carefully considered. First, is
easy riding in the chassis, second is
easy riding in the upholstery. The
chassis can be made to eliminate the
first shocks of rough roads, while
