Nose Tip Vaccination.

The young Japanese diplomat point ed to his father, the marquis.
 That's father,' he said, ''tl1e old fellow with the saucer shaped scar on the tip of his nose. All Japs of the older generation have that scar.''
 Yes said the debutante.
 ''Yes; it's a vaccination mark. In the old days, when compulsory vacci- nation first began, we Japs vaccinated everybody on the tip of the nose. Why? Well, because 1t was good place, where there's no movement to rub off the scab. and also because the vaccinati ton scar on the nose was easi- ly identified by the medical officers of the government. A man didn't have to take off half his clothes in order to prove that he'd been vaccinated.
 "Yes; the nose tip vaccination had it's good points, but before the modern hankering after beauty 1t had to go.'' New York Tribune.

Antiuuity of Death Masks.

Although there is no mention of death masks in the works of Homer or in any of the later classics, modwn ex- plorerse have satisfied themselves that in the early buriaIs of all nations it was the custom to cover the heads and bodies of the dead with sheets of gold so pliable that they took the impress of the form. and not infrequently. when in the course of centuries the embalmed flesh had shriveIed OF fall en away, the gold retained the exact cast of the features. SchIiemann found 8 number of bodies covered with large masks of gold plate in repousse work.s' several of which have been re- produced by means of engraving in his 'tMycenaes'' and he asserts that there can be no doubt whatever that each one of these represents the likeness of the deceased person whose face 1t GOV cred

be permitted to stick to the casing, which it ordinarily has tendency to do. This is prevented by the gen. erous use of French Tale.
 Most motorists realize the damag- ing effect of running a, tire fiat after a. puncture. The casing is quickly ruined beyond repair, but the tube is even more easily ruined. Driving asshOrt distance with the tire Hat will grind LID the tube into pasty shreds.
 We come now to a discussion of the cause of more tube trouble perhaps than all other causes combined pinching. Again and again, the mo-
 torist has been surprised when drtv- ing his car carefully on good roads, to have a blowout on one of his tires, which proves to be an internal one. The casing has not been cut and bruis- ed; it is in perfect condition. Still the tube, without apparent cause, has
 split for the space of foot and is worthless.
 The cause is to be found in the tires history a short time previously
 The last time the tube was removed from the casing and then applied again, a small part of it was caught
 between the rim and the bead. On centered at this pinch. The weaken ing was gradual but the eventual blowout certain. Sometimes the blowout comes more quickly, at times while the tire IS being 1nHaIeo. =FThe tube may also be pinched between the
 spreader at the base of the valve stem and the stay bolts. Its effect is the same as'la pinch at the edge of the head.
 Because of the manner in which
 regular cIincher castings are applied
 to their solid Films, pinching at the edge of the bead is more frequent in I ithe use of this tube than any other. The elastic bead must be stretched tover the side of the rim with a tire Iron and care is necessary to prevent a. pinch The tire iron itself, if not lcarefuIly used, is likely to damage the tube.
 4 final precaution to prevent disap- l pointing tube service, is this: Pro ] tect your spare tubes. Usually the spare tubes are folded and carried in the tool box. Here they come in contact with greases, oils and tools which present sharp edges. The tube
 will often be shifted around in a search for some article In time this shuffling around cI1afes and deeply wears the folded edges Often tube | is actually worn out in tool box
 before it is ever used. Tubes should always be carried in bags or In the pasteboard boxes with which theil maker furnishes them

CARE or INNER TUBES.

One of tue fundamentals is proper selection. In general, there are two classes of tubes on the market-pure gum and compounded. The com pounded tube is usually thicker than the pure gum type, and increased thickness is desirable because it de- creases the suscepti ibility to pinohing and puncturing Pure gum tubes are usually not built as thick because of the extra expense of the extra ex-
 pense this would involve. But the
 extra thickness of the compounded
 tube has more disadvantages than
 this one advantage can compensate
 for.
 A compounded tube is air-tight
 and highly elastic at first. But it can't retain these qualities long. The inorganic compounds it contains not only are good conductors of heat, so increasing the tendency to heat, but are themselves capable of deteriorat= ing the rubber, especially when heat ed. In service there is a. natural tne- dency to heat and the pure gum tube resists this tendency. being harder to heaf, and in addition is nos so easily Injured by heat. This is very impor- ant in it's effect on repairs. It is diff hcIlt to repair a compounded tube satisfactorily. Its adhesion to pure gum vulcanized repairs is not perfect and the heat necessary to cure the re- 1 pair injures the part of the tube af- 1 fected. For a short time a com pounded tube may give good service,
 but the pure gum tube is the only type capable of al1-around consistent service.
 1 First of all. the inside of the casing should be clean. If any dirt is pres ent it chafes the tube, weakening it sometimes to the yielding point. Sup pose, as often happens, nail or a
 stone finds it's way inside the easing. i When the tube is inflated, it is flat i by the pressure and is almost sure to cut the tube before it is fully inf1at-
 ed And so. the first requisite is that the inside of the casing be kept absolutely clean
 Besides the inside of the casing, the I tube also comes into contact with l the rim between the beads of the cas-
 ing. The rim accordingly also should be clean and smooth The. chief damage from rims arises from tn cir 1 tendency to rust. Rust, aside from making the rim rough, eats into the tube. Perhaps the most effective l way to guard against this is to paint the rim with graphite paint When 1 ever possible, this should be done I Flaps to be placed between the riTn l and tube offer protection from the rilh
 and rust, and are Of advantage provid-
 ed the user is careful not to pinch
 his tube between the edges of the flap and the head of the casing a I condition discussed a little further on
 For the repair of punctures and b1ow-outs, it is necessary frequently I to remove the tube from the casing ! Fer this reason the tube. should never

MADE IN AMERICA.

M J Budlong, president of the Packard Motor Company of New Y ork, said in a recent Interview that he was confident that the sale of high grade American cars would suffer very 1ittle as a result Of the European war. <zhe war has naturaIly affected has1ness in New York more than tt @As in the West, and the automobile industry that quite naturally suffered more heavily than commerce in staple necessities,'' '' said MT.

NEW TYPE or MOTOR TRUCK.


 The Electrical Commission of the city of Baltimore has placed in service an unusual type of motor truck which, forms an astonishing number of duties in the maintenance of the municipal conduit system This motor truck combines vehicle for transp porting repair crews and supplies and ern- bodies a pumping station, a lighting plant, a repair. shop and a wireless equipment enabling the commission to keep in constant touch with the truck. Perhaps the most striking feature of this machine is the fact that the wireless equipment, unlike any other portable set, enables the crew to re- ceive messages while the truck is be- ing driven along the streets. The ap- pearance Of the machine gives no suggestion of it's great utility in con <e.rek maintenance but when ready for EcSSon it is capRble of pumping 1z.- 900 gallons Of water per hour from a hooded conduit and it will furnish a food of light for inspection and re- pairs, to say nothing of carrying all the necessary paraphernaIia.
