The knight engine, which Is consld.
cred to be the very finest motor for
automobile use, was invented In the
u. s. A. by an American inventor,
and VAS adopted BY the foreign max
ers because the American manufac.
turer, like many OF the people, did
not see It's great possibilities until 1t
was used upon q Continental car.
Then they bought the patent back at
great expense and used tue slogab,

Paris gowns and English broadcloth
and worsteds have held the popular
favor on account OF the name alone.
Ninety per cent Of the Paris gowns
and perhaps larger percentage OF
the English cloths have been made
right here In our own country, by
our own mills and mlll-hands. Black
foot people will remember that only
last spring they bought Scotch plaids
and English worsteds from dry
land sailor and that these pieces
were made and bought at the Oregon
City wooleIl mills
Just at the present time there Is q
great deal DR. fuss made about the eff
ficacy Of the Krupp guns. About the
eormous sizt OF the portable siege gun
claimed to be sixteen inch bore. The
Scientific American says that there il
no such thing, and they have never
been wrong yet. The same magazine
says that OH the Panama Canal fort
resse there are some of the largest
and most effective cannon In the
world, that will shoot farther and
more accuTS telY than any gun that
has ever been made by the krupps OF
any other foreign gun-maker These
cannon, 1t will be remembered, we're
made 10 the United States by ouI
own workmen.
There are number Of things thai
we have never tried to make in thiI
country, but when we are put to thC
real test we find that We can make
them just as good or better than thu

these things Ia the soft carbon fo
