BALANCE, NOT WEIGHT
 MAKES TIRES 60 FAR
So Declares ]. E. BTophy, Local
 Goodrich Tire Agent.

What makes a tire give big ml,s-t" This question is always the ao-ahead signal for warm discussion among motorists and tire men, Users Of tires are beginning 10 ask themselves this question tnl are looking for la COZ rect answer with increasiu- irs'src.cc because they realize that it la u1ssi- ble to pay for needless mac, als rs. tra milIage.
 As a matter of fact msca oNlra weight of rubber will no. giss .Ntra mileage. Neither will added layers of fabric necessarily add moro miles service. 1T an over baiaurs ot rubber is used, the carcass of tHe Ura will give out long before the tread is worn down and the mOtorist lua- several pounds of rubber on his hands which he cannot use-aud wuilu na Iaig many dollars for
 On the other hand if extra piles of fabric are used in tire ,hsy have tp be paid for but the tread yiI be Bone long before the carcass, dui ;he HJn- ey for extra carcass is wasted
 The real long millu-e tua -s -aa tire in perfect balance between car cass and tread SO that as much CT more millag eis given as any cNIo thick tire could give, wihout cus ting the motorist SO much.
 Along these lines, J. F. Brpphv. Lowell tire agent for the B. r Go3i- rich Company makes the-a in-a~est- ing remarks:
 'Noboddy picks fat man to win long distance race It -ha i-he. sinewy athlete, who leads ,ne bunch. Goodrich tires are first class eN- amples of this principle worked out scientifically.

A MUSICIANS MEAL.
One Time When MeiIhac Paid For His
observation-disclosures.

One Time When Meilhac Paid For His
Absentmindedness.
The celebrated French composer
Meilhac was one of the absentminded
geniuses. He was also q man of sim
pie tastes in the matter of food. 1t is
related of him that ON an occasion
when one of his operas was being pre-
sented he entered in evening dress a
fashionable restaurant and threw him
self down at table, thinking earnest
ly about the musical event of the even
ing and about nothing else.
A waiter brought him bill Of fare,
and NJ. Meilhac quite abstractedly in
dicated with his finger the first dish on
the bill that his eye had struck. 1t
happened to be the most elaborate and
costly dish on the bill, and when the
waiter went to the kitchen with the
order there was cOmmOtiOn.
The proprietor himself arrived, and
he and the chief cook devoted them
selves to the preparation of the famous
dish. One man was sent for this choice
ingredient and another for another.
Meantime NJ. Meilhac waited, absorbed
At last the dish was brought with a
great flourish and the proprietor stood
not far away to observe the result.
When it was deposited on the table
Meilhac looked at it with an express
sion Of melancholy interest.
did l order that?" he asked.
Certainly, monsieur"
"Do'you like it?'
"But-but yes, monsieur"
"Then please take it away and eat it
yourself" ordered Meilhac, land bring

The order was carried out, and the
proprietor wondered if he had a mad
man to deal with.

Their end. But brighter glow of light
streamed from a room beyond, and,
determined to miss nothing, l was SO
close behind Taylor that my quick
eyes caught what I believed to be a
swift signal of warning to the man
within. This, however, was an inn
preston born from my own suspicion,
rather than any real movement, for
Taylor took but single step across
the threshold, and stopped, leaning on
his gun. The single occupant sat up
right, before him the remnants Of a
light repast, his hand toying with a
spoon, and his eyes shifting from Tay-
lor's face to my own. He was
heavily built and broad of shoulder.
The face would have been hard, but
for a CLEAN of good humor in the
eyes, and the softening effect of gray
hair, and a gray mustache. The man

weapon which had struck the blow

the deed, and l would be discovered

ness, my desire to investigate, had in

deliberately taken the weapon for that

The Royal Adviser May Have Saved
His Young Kings Life.

His Young Kings Life.
King Charles XII. of Sweden, who
came to the throne at the early age Of
fifteen, went out riding one time In
company with his cousin, the Duke Of
Holstein. and a few other gentlemen
of the court. On the way they came
upon a pile of timber standing by the
roadside. The Duke Of Holstein sug-
gested to the king that the company
try their skill by riding over the pile
on their horses. Charles aSsented and
insisted upon being the fist to go over
But just as he was about to dig his
spurs into his horse, tells Das Buch fur
ALE, Count Wachtmeister seized the
bride and said to the king, Don't you
try to ride over that"
The Duke of HOlstein became angry.
"How dare you cross the wish Of the
kingv' he exclaimed.
Calmly Wachtmeister answered, "Say
what you will, my king shall not do it."
Holstein then refined up to him and
to know with whom you are speaking"
"Oh, yes" said the other, laughing
scornfully; II am speaking with the
Duke Of Holstein. But will you kindly
recall that you are addressing Count
Wachtmeister, the royal adviser. And,
as l said before, my king shall not
break his neck by such wild and dan
gerous jump. Perhaps you were think
ing of becoming the king of Sweden in
that event. But you won't so long as
Hans Wachtmeister lives"
Just then the young king, who wasl
standing by listening to the discussion.
rode up to his adviser and, tapping him
on the shoulder approvingly. said to
the company: mo, gentlemen; guess
we won't jump that pile. 1t is a bit
dangerous And with that they con-
tinued On their way in silence.
