Health.

There was clerk who saw the men
of his own age losing health year by
year through overwork. indoor seden'
tary life, and lack OF daily exercise.
He saw them growing yellow and fab
by and unfit. and the spectacle didn't
attract him. He decided that success
had better come late, or even not at
all. rather than at the price Of ruined
body. Health became to him the
choicest OF the mercies, the best of
life's comrades. After a youth of
weakness and fatigue. the man was
happy in Rnding that an hour of exer-
else a day changed the aspect OF the
outer world and removed him for all
time from the ranks Of the unfit
Golfers.

Explainina the [. and &.

In these days of initiative, refer
endum and recalls, it is interesting to
note the explanation given by a we'll
known politician to an out-of-town
friend the other day, in a hotel lobby.
Mr.. Man goes home and announces
that he is going down town after sup
per to meet a friend. That's the mi
tiative. The wife of the house says:
Are YOU? in that ascending voice
which seems to walk over the roof
of her nerves. That's the referendum.
Then Mr.. Man sits down and reads
his paper. That's the recall. And
that's all there is to it. Understand
it now, don't you? Just as easy and
simple as two AMI two are four. Co

Burns and Dickens.

The formula of unification-univer-
sal sympathy with man-embodied in
wit and humor and pathos, in satire's
scorching flame, in cheerful sunshine
of didactic optimism. supplies the key
to manifold analogies in Burns and
Dickens. Holy Willie's Prayer" is
the ne plus ultra in the satire Of n.y.
pocrisy; and the false elder In Burns
is of the kith and kin of Pecksnifr and
Bundle and Uriah Heep.
Burns Doctor Hornbook, taking the
work of death out OF deaths hands
with fool medicines. is of the tribe
of Mr.. Venus, Articulator OF Bones.

Former Senator j. C. S. Black
burn, who is now in charge of the
erection of the Lincoln monument at
Washington. seems to have lost none
of his power for vigorous expression
even if his physician says he must
not do anything calculated to fatigue
or excite. In an interview he goes
for the Haly.Beckham contingent
and takes a crack at Urey Woodson,
whom he says he put in nomination
for the position of National commit
teeman good many years ago. when
the Beckham crowd put up General
Haldeman. Woodson was elected
and has served ever since. Now
Beckham is for Woodson and "Old
Joe" is for Haldeman and says that
unless the National Committee has
some unlariated idiot in its member
ship Woodson won't get a vote in
that body on a contest for place. -

Oil Displaces Coal.

Owing to the great output of pc
troleum in California and its use as
manufacturing. railroad, and steam
err fuel. the production of coal in
Washington has been considerably
reduced during recent years. 1t is
estimated that the consumption of
California oil for fuel on the Pacific
Coast is equivalent to about 81, 0OO,-
40 tons of coal, or between 6 and 7
times the output of coal in Washing
ton, .or for that matter in all the Pa.
cific Coast States combined. in 1914.

U. S. MAKERS GRAB
THE BRITISH FIELD
Only Touring Cars Sold In
England Come From The
American Factories.

Detroit, Oct. 8 That America
will soon own bodily the entire auto
mobile trade of Great Britain and
such parts of continental Europe as
are open to commerce is the conf
dent declaration Of Ernest A. De
Lorenzi, of the Maxwell Motor Co.,
Of London, England, who has been
for several days in conference with
American officials of the parent
company.
Mr.. De Lorenzi believes that the
Maxwell company should expand the
scope of its export campaign, even
to a greater extent than the normal
rate of increase provided for in the
allotment of cars in the seasons
schedule.
European factories are producing
virtually no passenger carrying cars
at all for private consumption" says
Mr.. De Lorenzi. Most of them
are working solely on government
contracts, building cars adapted for
war purposes with various types Of
body. Some of them are changing
their entire plants over to the pro-
duction of aeroplanes. Touring cars
of British make are produced only
in such limit way as to create no
impression whatever on the market.
British makers are still further
handicapped by the fact that, unless
they are working on government
contracts, they have only the lame.
the halt and the blind among The ma.
tons workmen. The pick of all the
British mechanics are all either at
the front or at work on government
enterprises.
ITO still further increase the ham
dicap of the British makers, the
price of skilled labor has increased
nearly 100 per cent-a condition that
would bar the door to the production
of any car at "a profit"
| MI. De Lorenzi says that, aside
from the smallness of his allotment
of cars, the feature which worries
him most is the difficulty of getting
cars across the Atlantic, VIRTUALLY
\ i
!. all the available vessels are charteTeeSa'
for war munitions and his firm has
now in New York considerable
: shipment of Maxwell cars which
nave been awaiting transit for two
weeks.
Like most native Britons, present
in America, Mr.. De Lorenzi makes
light of the Submarine menace. He
says that, since the war began, no
automobile carrying vessel has been
lost or torpedoed. He admits, how
ever. that his firm has established a
warehouse at Liverpool and is ship
ping to that port, rather than Lon
don, the former port of destination.
He also confesses to having taken
out $50 worth of life and property
/ insurance for himself and Mrs. De
Lorenzi, prior to their departure for
America an the Arduna.
I'VE are clearing the ocean of the
U.boats by various MEANS" declares
Mr.. De Lorenzi. eve net bunch
of them but our most effective meth
cd has been to disguise patrol boats
as trawlers and to send them out as
part of the trawler fleet. The sub,
marines usually come to the top and
attack the trawler fleet with shell
fire. All of a sudden a four-inch
gun answers them and the submarine
is through as commerce pest"
