Paint Futon

Think of paint put-on and not by the gallon.
 A gallon of paint in the can is of nc account to anybody. Put 1t on. Now reckon it's cost and value.
 The secret is: one paint goes twice as far as another. A good one goes twice as far as bad one.
 You have job, say an average job It'H take 10 g alions Devoe and l2 or lS or Is or 20 of middling poor very poor and trash. You know painters wages in your town. Put the price of gal lon of paint and the painters day-wage together. You can, we can't. Devoe costs less than any inferior paint: there are hundreds of them. One paint is as good is another, So long as it lasts good; one lasts months and another years: and the one that goes furthest lasts longest.

COAL PASSES STRIKE LINE
Barges lowed Here-Captains
Ask Money for Children.

Some barges carrying coal came to this
city yesterday, under tow, despite the
strike OF coal barge captains. A mass
meeting OF the strikers 70 arrange for
extending the strike was held in Chelsea
Hall, 18th street and Eighth avenue. yes
terday, which was addressed by the strike
leaders and others.
While the meeting was behind closed
doors II became known that the principal
argument TO be used by the union In
favor OF a general wage scale OF $50
month for the barge captains will be the
desire Of the married men, whose fam
ilies live with them on the barges. to SEND
their children 10 school. One OF the
strikers said this was talked OF good
deal at all the meetings.
Measures will be taken to-day. probably
toward evening, for the protection OF the
barges by the transportation companies
and other employers whose barge cap
tains have struck.
The barges, Il Is said. will have TO be
guarded. no matter where they are tied
up, against being cut adrift by strikers
or eympathizers.

SIX.CYLINDER CARS
GAINING IN FAVOR
Number of This Type at Show
Causes Comment Among
Visitors.

one OF the features Of the automobile
show upon which many visitors COM
nented on Saturday was the large num-
Der Of six-cylinder cars. The extent to
which American makers generally have
come 10 believe in the six-cylinder type is
evidenced by the fact that no less than
twenty OF them entered the field this year
for the first time. Five makers who for
merly built four-cyllnder machines have
dropped that type altogether for 1914 and
in the future they will build SKIES exclu-
sively.
There are at present thirty-four build
ers Of six-cylinder cars in this country.
as against the half dozen pioneers OF
some years back. The proof OF the merit
OF the six lies in the fact that every
standard maker who started as pioneer

continued with them, whereas numerous
other features of automobile design have
been offered TO the public, tried out and
later abandoned.

WARNING TO USERS
OF SOLID TIRES
Overlooking of Trucks Likely to
Result in Damage and
Waste.

Many motor truck owners have the idea
that there is no limit TO the ability OF a
solid tire 10 bear loads. and so pile their
cars high with cargo" without any re-
gard for their tires. Solid tires. however,
are as sensitive to overlooking as pneu-
MATES. and r. G. Harris. head OF the
motor tire department OF the Firestone
Tire and Rubber Company, in the follow
ing sounds warning OF that tire abuse;
THE immediate result OF overlooking A
solid tire is the appearance OF a bulge,
called traction wave In the rubber just
IN front Of the point OF contact between
tire and street. This wave with the enor-
nous weight back OF II works through TO
the very base OF the tire.
NO tires are made OF pure rubber. The
gum must be compounded with chemicals

guarded against. eventually will tear the
tire away from the steel rim. Not only
does the wave ruin the tire. but II also
arects tho truck as though IL were going
I'D hill. involving constant loss OF
power.
Several methods OF preventing the
sensration Of the tire from the channel

THO Distinct Schools in
Building of Auto Bodies

In engine designing manufacturers
abroad and in this country may roughly
be said 10 have conditions 10 met which
are dametrically opposed. inasmuch as
the European maker is required TO give
maximum power AT high engine speed,
whereas the American maker is required
to give maximum power at low engine
speeds.
European road conditions are so much
better than those prevailing here that II
is the rule instead Of the exception 10 run
at top speed. With our wide range OF
climate and our unusually heavy road
conditions maximum car speed is out OF
the question. Our motor cars must be
driven at normal rates OF speed. and must
contain the maximum OF activity at those
normal car speeds
The tax on cylinder bore is very largely
responsible for the development Of the
small bore. long stroke motor in Eng
land II has also been responsible for run
ming tho engine revolutions up to so high
n point, as the greater the number OF
revolutions the greater the power from
given bore. and consequently the greater
ability I'm motor car within certain
tax.
Tightening OF the chassis to bring ii
within The capacity Of a small motor has
resulted in the elimination OF many parts
that are considered quite necessary for
our severer American conditions.
Many OF -he European chassis have
nothing but the rear springs TO push the
cars. TO take torque reaction and TO resist
the action OF the brakes.
Few cars are equipped with electric
lighting and starting outfits. and those so
equipped. with three exceptions. have not
what over here would be called thorough
IL mechanical installations. Generators
and starting motors are attached I'm odd
