BY HAMILTON WRIGHT.

AYINE huge exhibit palaces have been IN pleted at the Panama-Pacfc International X ' Exposition at San Francisco. Altogether there will be thirteen main structures the Exposition grounds, and an Auditorium to seat 12,OO0 persons and to cost more than $l 5000 IS under construction at the civic center of the city
 The result of the work fulills every expecta- ton of the commission of famous architects to whom was entrusted the exposition design. To blend and fit in with the impressive natural hills that encircle the grounds on the south east and west, the harbor on the north with its islands and beyond the Golden Gate, it planned to produce single superb architectural design, and the plan has been carried out
 The Exposition grounds, which face the harbor for almost three miles, are occupied by three great groups of buildings In the center are the exhibit palaces; upon the east is the amusement section, and on the west and nearest the Golden Gate is the section devoted to the pavons of the thirty-six nations that are to take part and of the states.
 From the heights of Bevidere, four miles across San Francisco harbor, the vast copper green domes of the main palaces, rising high as the average twelve-storv city block, to reach more than half way to the first rims of the great en- circling hills at Ha-hor View Glints of gold and jade and sapphire splashed the buildings in brilliant riotous colors that, in the distance melt together in a vast mosaic.
 In the center group eight of the exhibit palaces are joined in a rectanglc. Four of the buildings face upon 400 feet wide esplanade upon San Francisco harbor and four face the South Gardens between the main group of buildings and the Ex- position boundaries The four buildings facing the harbor from east to west are the palaces of

Four or five weeks ago 1 started up the motor on my magneto without any difficulty Gone or two yanks of the crank be- Ing sufficient as a rule). 1 let it run idle for few minutes, then started to back it out of it's house, when it stalled as I supposed from throt- tie not being opened enough but 1 could not start again 1 cannot un- derstand why it stopped. It will not Eun since. I have taken off the carburetor three times but found nothing amiss. Emptied gasoline tank and filtered what gasoline was put in it since. Put new wiring (primary) on commutator. Cleaned ommutator, found it was a little worn with cross ridges Had it turned out by machinist, had cylin- der head off and found same free fronf carbon. Have adjusted every thing I can think of or that has been suggested to me without results
 
 I have tried storage battery. Get a good spark at the plugs (outs1de). Compression is good, timing seems all right. When motor is cranked gas oline will drip from carburetor when cease cranking. Have tried both closed and open throttle. Advanced and retarded spark-battery and mag neto. Get once in a while a slight whiff-mostly back out through car buretoF.
 l am puzzled, as I know of no req son why it should not run as well as before or better. Your reply will be>eagerly awaited.-A. E. C..
 You certainly must be mistaken re- garding the ignition and timing. When a motor is timed right and has good compression in each cylinder and gasoline at the carburetor, and good spark at the plugs, it should at least run idle. Even with a poor car buretor adjustment it should start. It appears that something must have become disarranged with the spark timing. Perhaps the timer shaft has broken or loosened from the driving

Motoring Department, The Herald: !: I noticed a small leak in one of the cylinders this morning which was caused by d biowhole in the casting. The cooling water I know should not be allowed to leak. especially during these hot days, and 1 would appre- ciate your suggestion for it's repair. Is it necessary to have 1t welded = E. T.
 If the hole is very small one it can be repaired by using cement called "Smooth-On," otherwise would suggest that the hole be drilled, tapped and plugged. By using lead on the threads of the plug the leak will be stopped. After filing level with the casting and retouching with cylinder paint the repair will hardly be noticed. If, however, there is crack extending from the leak. 1t would be advisable to have same welded, even though it be more eA- pensive.

 You should caliper the cylinders and pistons in order to ascertain if they are true. If they are not true the cylinders should be rebored. When this is done new pistons and rings are necessity to complete the work properly. The clearance at the top of the piston is usually 'two-thou- sandths of an inch to each inch of cylinder bore. At the bottom of the piston it is about one-quarter as much. '..

tablespoonful of chopped parsley, a
little salt and cayenne and half a

well-beaten yolk of an egg. Fill the
shell of the lobster with the mix
ture, sprinkle bread crumbs over

Bernard's Luck

Once upon time there lived in the
small village of Crawford a boy by
the name of Bernard. He was very
poor and SO he had to work for q.
living and get an education the best
way he could. He had no father, and
his mother was very good, but sick,
woman. New Years eve came with

was very warm and comfortable.

feed the animals. Very wet from the

stable. lie gave the animals their
meal and they looked very grateful
to their young master.
Seeing some wood on the ground
he stopped down to gather it. He
thought that they would be better
off in the CRATE. He began to scoop
the cnlpS from the ground into a pan
that stood nearby His attention was
suddenly attracted by a sound of
some coin falling into the pail. He
looked into the pail and he saw
something that glittered in the lamp
light.
Thinking that he would find more
of it, he took a piece of tin and again
scratched away the ground, which
was very soft.

Brown Is in Vogue

Brown continues to be a favorite
color It is used even more for house
and evening gowns than for street
suits.
When il is used for street suits il
is generally dark shade.
The house shades are often lighter
and brighter. With pink 1t makes a
warm and brilliant combination for
the house.
Brown chiffon over pink silk or pink
over brown silk or satin can be used
effectively. Brown and yellow are
good combination.
A brown chiffon frock, made up over
brown satin, is trimmed with much
gold-b bead embroidery and fringe and
tassels of gold cord.
Another brown and yellow combina-
ton is a canary yellow chiffon made
up over brown satin.
