THE SELF k7ER
: and sealing waX Of cabbe6es- 8 kings

The self-starter is a device for cranking
an automobile which never works when
anybody is looking on. 1t IS a peculiar
fact that a new, robust scl1-starter which
will spin the engine one hundred times
hand running, in the garage, immediately
contracts creeping paralysis the moment it
is asked to transact business on a crowded
street. There is nothing that will cause
the owner OF a new car to litter up the
landscape with sulphuric language quicker
than to have his self-starter stutter on the
four corners, and be obliged to dig the
crank out from under the back seat and
pump on the handle in the presence OF a
skeptical and unfeehng audience. Yet this
happens every day, without any appre-
ciable increase in the mortality tables.
The sclt-starter is the work of a genius
who grew tired of cranking his car and be-
ing kicked in the right wrist by the back
fire. After several thousand people had
had the same experience and were living
cheerfully off their accident insurance, the
Iself-starter was brought out and placed Inn
mediately under the right foot, where the
driver could step on it while the car was
in motion and strip a few cogs out of the
fly wheel, at 81 per cog. This caused d
number OF thoughtful owners to go bach

The majority of over $4,000 against
woman 5 suffrage which New Jersey
returned yesterday is likely to have an
effect on the vote on the same ques-
ton at the coming elections in Pennsyl-
vania, New York and Massachusetts,.
Nothing succeeds like success, and if
New Jersey vote had been in the af-
it would have had a cheer
ing effect for increased efforts on the
part of those who advocate votes for
women in the other states where the
test is to be made soon. The campaign
in New Jersey was vigorously and hon
orably conducted, and in the energy
and earnestness of the women, both for
and against suffrage, is seen mani
festation of the ability of women to
participate in politics

to the crank and take out few new acct
dent policies.
The most popular form of self-starter is
operated by electricity, which is fed into
it by a storage battery, hung on to the
running board where it can work loose
and cause short circuit in some vital
spot. The battery is kept alive by hope
and rainwater, and is charged by the en-
CINE whenever the speed of the car exceeds
Il miles an hour. When the battery dies,
which usually occurs several miles from
civilized community, it can be recharged
by the end of the week, provided a good
start is obtained on Sunday
There are several excellent mechanical
Iselfstarters on the market, all of which
are operated by the right arm and the
back of the neck. In cold weather they
are superior to any other, although lacking
somewhat in the insouciant grace peculiar
to the electric starter when it IS in good
| health. After all, there is no greater lux
| ury in motoring than to be able to step
/ buoyantly on the starter pedal and feel it
take hold with a soothing sound like feed
ing pair of duck-bill pliers through a
corn shelter. Some day we shall have a
tstarter which grows stouter with age, in
stead of going into a decline 80 minutes
latter the contract is signed, and then the
motorists millennium will be in sight

BARRE Times.


If the party of Brattleboro people
SO in number-got as good an impress
sion as they gave during their two
days "better acquaintance tour to
various points in Massachusetts recent
ly, their visit most certainly was not
in vain. We judge that the party
must have made a good impression be-
cause, for instance, here is the Pitts
field correspondent of the Springfield
Republican sizing them up in the fol-
lowing manner: If the men who visit
ed Pittsield from Vermont are a sam
pie of Vermont business men, Just
keep your eye on Vermont Sure,
keep your eye on Vermont. Vermont
is not making great and tremendous
strides forward, but Vermont is most
certainly forging ahead. There are
business men like the Brattleboro men
in every one of the larger communi-
ties of the state, and they are alive to
the conditions throughout the country
while at the same time they are not
above learning more if the opportunity
comes their way to learn more. Incl
! dentally, we are glad that the Brattle-
boro men gave such good account OF
Vermont.

Montpelier's Growth.
Bennington Banner. J

Montpelier has just taken local
census and finds the population of the
city to be SlG5 which is a gain of 800
over the figures of the federal census
of 1910. This Is a good showing in con
sideration of the fact that Montpelier
has been passing through rather
serious business depression in the past
few years, due to a series of fires which
destroyed several of the leading stone
cutting plants that were not rebuilt. In
addition to these Montpelier also passed
through the contraction of the Ameri-
can Fidelity company which cost Mont
pelier people a good deal of money If
a town can grow under such conditions

Johnsbury and other Vermont towns
which have had no serious setback save
the effects of the general depression
which always accompanies a Democrat

family?" Great temperance lessons
are being taught by the big industrial
plants and railway companies, which
bar the doors of employment to drink
ing men, on the ground that they are
inefficient and are more likely to meet
with accidents than the men who fol-
low temperate life. In commercial
age it is a potent argument to put the
question of drink upon the basis Of eff
ficiency and economy.

New Orleans protests that the stories
Of the recent gulf storm were greatly
exaggerated. One of the city papers
states that while the losses were re-

did not exceed $2,oOo,Oo0. 1t will be
recalled that California soon baeame
tired of being held up as one of the

excitement blows over, cities and states
realize that exaggerated reports Of
catastrophies are not the best kind of
advertising.
