The good man had just been in

possibly possess the information that
he hadn't an ounce of sense, that ne
had never had an ounce of sense, and
that there was not the remotest
chance that he ever would have an
ounce of sense.
Having been assured on these
points, the good man turned to his
paper, only to be interrupted by his
young son and heir:
Father" said the boy, what is a
vacuum and where can l find one?"
my boy, replied the good man, eff
we are to assume that your mother is
qualified to speak on the subject, /

You mean your dome?"

hearty kiss. At once joy was uncon-
fined The dancer was toasted,
cheered, kissed again and again. When
she managed at last to disengage her
self from the patriotic embrace of the
company, she asked timidly:
"But why?"
"Mademoiselle" said one Of the
most ardent, lit is that we salute in
you the Latin sister who has come
back to US, faithful to the ties Of
blood and ancient sympathy. Once
more, Vive PItalie!"

Police Would Get Il.

The talk of parents at home about
conditions in the police department
made a deep impression on the mind
of a twelve-year-old boy who was De-
fore Judge F. J. Lair in juvenile court
for stealing a bicycle. The court had
lectured the boy and his three COM
panions on the disgrs ce of stealing
and finally asked the boys what they
thought of stealing.
Now, suppose everybody were to
steal" the court suggested, land then
what do you think would become Of
all of our property"
"Oh, the police would get every
thing" was the boys quick response.

Woman An Influential
Factor in Car Purchase

Just to what extent the woman is
responsible for the great number of
automobiles being sold every month
is phase of the automobile business
hard to determine
The fact remains. however, that
the feminine influence plays a very i'm
portant part in nearly every automo-
bile sale. Women in general are very
fond of nice car. This being the
incentive. the influence spreads with
great proportions in every corner of
the globe. Her influence nine times
in ten is the stimulus for the mans
attention and interest in automobiles.
says President E. w. Allen, of the
Allen Motor Company. Fostoria. Ohio

He continued by stating: IT am quite
positive that the great demand for

mentioned several instances where
owners had taken the trouble to write
to the factory of their experiences.
u. r. Stains, a garage man of Buff
falo, was so interested in the record OF
an old Jackson car that visited his
place for overhauling, that he sent the
facts to the factory. According to Mr..
Stains, the car has been run for hve
years, piling up total mileage of Co.
900 miles The owner is a contractor
who carries heavy implements and
equipment constantly and the car has
been given the hardest kind of usage.
The cars motor is as silent as most
new cars. Mt. Stains says the owner
expects to run his car for three more
years, before trading it in on new
model.
Another man who has driven his
jackson for five years is Walter L.

run &C, 900 miles in that time. Mr.. Tom

Taxicab Service Shows
Remarkable Tire Test

One of the most remarkable tire
tests on record was made recently in
Oakland, Cal, where records of the
service rendered by the tires used on a
line OF taxicabs operated by the city
were kept.
The tires used were Diamond
Squeegee Treads. thirty of them being
placed in service, under the super
vision of James Ready, foreman of the
corporation yards.
Mr.. Ready's report shows that the
thirty tires gave a total service
age of 6.SS2.4 miles per tire. Re-
adjustments were asked on only two
of the thirty tires. which, considering
the circumstances, appears to be quite
remarkable.
Taxicab service imposes the most
severe tests to which tires can be sub
1ected. Frequent stopping and start
ing is very hard on tires and taXicabs
start and stop more frequently than
cars in any other kind of service.
1t is fact. too, that taXicabs are
likely to encounter much worse roads
than those over which otheS cars are
run. The taxi driver is not permitted
to pick out the roads that are best
suited for automobile traffic. He must
get to his destination by the most
direct route, and this is likely to be
over rough or muddy roads or upon
roads where street car tracks furnish
the only means of getting through.
Running in street car tracks is par
ticularly hard on tires.
Taxis. as a rule, are heavy cars, and
in addition to their own weight they
are pretty likely to carry extra heavy
loads.
1t would be difficult. indeed. to find
more severe test upon tires than
they get IN regular taxicab service
The mileage records of the thirty Dia-
mond Scueegeo Tread tires used on
the Oakland taXls appear, therefore, to
constitute strong proof OF the wearing
qualities of these tires.
The fact that only two of the tires
were returned for adjustment is n
further indication of the general ex-
cellence of Diamond Soueegee casings.
Individual records of the tires show
that the greatest mileage was rendered
o% 3lX4 tire. which delivered II, ,63S
miles. The next best was a 31xS1a
t!:e. which gave 1O.910 miles; the
third. a 31N4, which travelled 1916
miles, and the fourth. s1x3G, 1876
miles.
