What would the townspeople say?
You with a new motor car, afraid to

York for your nephew-nixi Where's
your family pride?"
My family pride is all right" an
swered Uncle Gilbert; "but there's a
lot of contraptions in that machine I
don't seem to recognize"
'Oh, that's all right; you're a handy
little guy with machinery" reminded
him. Hop in now and break forth.
Don't let the public think that you're
afraid to blow a bubble through the
streets of your native town. The rub

Reluctantly Uncle Gilbert and Aunt
Miranda climbed into the kerosene
wagon and 7 gave him his final in

Now, Uncle Gilbert" I said, grab
that wheel in front of you firmly with
both hands and put one foot on the
accelerator. Now put the other foot
on the rheostat and let the left elbow
gently rest on the deodizer. Keep the
rubber tube connecting with the auto
matte fog whistle closely between the
teeth and let the right elbow be in
touch with the quadruplex while the
apex of the left knee is pressed over
the spark coil and the right ankle
works the condenser
Uncle Gilbert grunted. "Why don't
you put my left shoulder blade to
work." he muttered. Its the only
part of my anatomy that hasn't got
a job

Miranda, do you really think your

you and the rest of your face in the

And away they started in the Whiz

Before they had rolled along for half
a mile through the town, the machine
suddenly began to breathe fast and
then, all of sudden, it choked up and
stopped.

Miranda, p1eadingly.

whereupon the woman in the road
threw up both hands and leaped for
the man. The man threw up both feet
and 1eaped for the fence.
The last Aunt Miranda saw of them
they were entering their modest home
neck and neck, and the divorce court
lost bet.
Then the machine began to climb a
telegraph pole, and as it ran down the
other side Aunt Miranda wanted to
know for the tenth time If it would
explode
How did John tell you to handle
it?'' she shrieked, as the Rowdy Cart
bit it's way through a stone fence and
began to dance a two-step over a
strange mans lawn.

main road again.

Aunt Miranda, and the machine
seemed to hear her, for it certainly

the machine jumped up in the air and
turned a>double handspring, during

his wife fell out and landed in the

of the state.
Then the Buzz Buggy turned around
and barked at them and with an ex-
cited wag of its tail scooted for home
and left them fiat.
Late that evening Uncle Gilbert ex-
planned that there would have been

they turn hose on them and drench
them with cold water to thoroughly
cool them Off" said veterinarian as
he stopped a driver from throwing
water over his perspiring team. IF
the horse is overheated," he contin-
ued, the shock of such a bath on
the region where the kidneys are sit

1t does no apparent harm the horse
Will succumb much more readily to
the heat afterward. After horse has
been working In the broiling sun 1t
should be cooled of as gradually as
possible. The first thing to do is to
take sponge and wash out its mouth.
This removes the saliva, which is pol
sonous, and refreshes the animal
greatly, before it can be allowed to
have a drink. After this the horse
should have its four legs bathed-the
hind ones as far as it's launches, the
front ones up to the chest. Then it
is safe to wet it's head, neck and the
part of its neck Immediately behind
the neck Care should be taken, how
ever, to keep the region of the kid

driving a team up before a fire en-
CINE house and playing a hose indis-
sriminately over their bodies is ac-
countable for the death of many good
horses every summer.
