broke in fearless sob. The color had
gone out Of her face. and she stood
rigid. looking down at the girl whose
crime had ruined her life with an ex-
preston Of infinite loathing in her eyes.
Aggie took advantage Of the pause
Her voice was acid. Some people are

Somehow the speech was welcome
to the girl, gave her touch Of cour-
age sufficient for cowardly protesta-

was familiar to her. A gush of tears
came.
"IIl never forgive myself, never"
she moaned.
"Oh, yes, you will Mary said
malevolently ''People forgive them
selves pretty easily. Stop crying. No
body is going to hurt you" She thrust
the money again toward the girl and
crowded it into the half reluctant. half
greedy hand. "Take it, and get out"

sharper. Go. before l change my

The girl needed no second bidding
With the money still clutched in her
hand she went forth swiftly, stumbling
little in her haste. fearful lest at the
last moment the woman she had so
wronged should change in mood and
take back the money.
Freed from the miasma Of that pres
ence, Mary remained motionless for a
long minute. then sighed from her tor
tured heart.

will weigh anywhere from go to $50
pounds, and a tire will weigh anywhere
from nine TO 81 pounds, it can be seen
that some allowance has to be made.
Thus, If two very small sized tires
mounted on separate rims are carried
this means nearly 200 pounds and
where two very big ones are carried
il means nearly $50 pounds of weight
Naturally this imposed on one side
rather than on the other must be al
lowed for if the car is to take its
chance on the road.
On the whole. the carrying Of tires at
the rear does not appear to have many
advantages, save in the matter Of ap-
pearance, and here Of course il is a con-
siderable advantage the tendency being

pedimenta- To give the machine as
clean looking an appearance as possible
is no doubt the underlying idea in this
arrangement As regards accessibility
there is perhaps no choice as between
the tire on the side Of the car and the
tire at the rear. One must dismOunt to
get at either, and perhaps from the
position in which the tire at the rear is
carried il is a little easier TO get at
because it is usually rugged higher Up.

ENGINES RUN WILD;
THROTTLE TOO LOOSE
Manner of Remedying the Defect Is
Told For the Benefit of Owners
of AutomobIles.

Many find. after the yhave had a car
in use for u months or so, that the
running Of the engine at low speeds
is very cratic, both when the car
is stationary and when it is moving
along the road. For instance, some
times with the throttle lever on the
wheel set at a particular point on the
quadrant the engine will run at 400
revolutions per minute; at other times
with the lever on exactly the same
spot the engine will come to stand
still almost Immediately.
The cause Of this want of uniform
control is frequently slackness which
develops in the various joints and
connections OF the throttle, advises
Motor Print. Between the hand lever
and the actual throttle valve in the
inlet pipe, some cars have as many as
six or eight joints, and the slightest
wear at each one of these will in the
movement at the throttle valve itself
Consequently by moving the lever a
certain amount you are never sure that
the throttle is not moved very much
more or considerably less. The remedy
is obvious; the slackness of the va
riOus joints and connections must lie
taken up
The same defect is sometimes ex-
istent in the ignition control, but with
this the inconsistency is not nearly so
noticeable. A slight risk is however.
attendant on slackness Of ignition con-
troll joints, in so much that when start

- NTRIES for the Boston
nonstop run, which is being pro-
- NOTED by the Chicago Automobile
club are becoming numerous. This
run is conceded to be the hardest yet
promoted inasmuch as the motors viii
be started at Chicago and the contest
ants viii drive night and day without
being allowed to stop the motors un-
penaIlzed. The cars will each carry an
observer and these observers will be
changed twice daily. Every item OF
repairs viii be figured as a penalty.
The club is arranging to follow the
run with special train through To-
ledO, Cleveland, Buffalo, Rochester,
Syracuse, Albany, New York, Spring
field and TO Boston
The run viii leave Chicago June 25
and is scheduled to arrive in Boston
June o.
Practically every section Of the
United States, Canada and Mexico and,
in fact. every country Of the world, has
been conquered by the automobile to-
day and motor trucks are gradually
covering the same routes Those who
would gain in publicity by pathfinding
and exploration by automobile are put
10 their wits end to discover something
supposedly impossible in the way of a
stunt which viii attract attention.
New countries TO open, new districts to
explore. are hardly TO be found, and
many who have ideas for the future
are keeping these to themselves. One
huge trip which many had contem-
plated, the journey from the Atlantic
10 the Pacific in British territory, was
recently made by a private owner with
out thought Of publicity.
It is proposed in several sections Oh
the country to put on real endurance
runs for private owners during 1913,
the owners to be the drivers in each
instance. Such a tour for ranchmen
in Texas last summer attracted the
attention Of the entire United States
and was a pronounced success.

THE FUEL TROUBLE
SOLVED? NOT YET
There Has Been Discovered a Cheaper
Juice For AutOs!. But Oh! Ye
Gods, How 1t Smells

FL PasO motorists Will soon be able
to get juice for their gasoline buggies
much cheaper.
The Standard Oil company announces
the discovery Of a new motor fuel
which it will sell for three cents a
gallon less than gasoline.
It will not be popular among Joy
riders, as it leaves an Odor in its wake
which in no wise resembles altar Of
roses. In fact, it is intended chiefly for
motor trucks driven by rude, common
persons, who care nothing for smells.
The new fuel is described as closely
resembling ordinary gasoline except
THAT it is yellow in color and its OdOr
is of the pungent variety. 1t is an ad-
ditional by-prOdUct Of petroleum and
was discovered by W. II. Burton after
experimenting a year.
Local managers of the Standard Oil
company have not yet received the new
product but say it viii probably be

For the purpose Of increasing It's

Secretary J. D. Bukey reported that

these as soon as sufficient funds can

With the coming Of warm weather,
