than a year ago. In fact, conditions
are rather the reverse. And the best
skilled workmen are the kind we use.
The price of our eight was set too
low in the beginning. AS it was neces-
sary to announce the price at the
time the car was announced, and as
there had been no manufacturing ex-
perience with car of this type, the
cost of production could only be esti-
mated.
In view of certain conditions which
arose after the car and the price had
been announced, it proved that the
estimate was too low.
I'VE might have lessened the cost to
the detriment of the car and the pur-
chaser, or we might have increased
the price. We did neither. And 3, 900

Danger of Skidding
and Ways to Avoid 1t

Many a motorist has had his car
brought to a halt against a telephone
pole or skdded into a ditch because he
has not taken the necessary precaution
before he ventured out on the road In
other words, not learning just what to
do in case his wheels started to skid.
Speeding is dangerous, carelessness
causes many accidents, but there Is no
question but that more serious acci-
dents occur because of skids on muddy
roads or slimp paVements than for any
other reason.
The fundamental principle which
should be remembered. is that the
wheels should be kept straight. When
the front and rear wheels no longer
track, and II is impossible for the tires
to grip. The moment the driver feels
twist the steering wheel quickly and
bring the front and back wheels in
alignment. The tires will get a grip
on the road and. in most cases. skid
ding can be prevented.
Once skid Is started 1t is impos-
sible for the best and most experienced
driver to stop it. On roads which are
muddy or on paVements which are
slippery, the motorist should either
have chains on or very good anti
skid tire. In cities where the streets
are continually sprinkled. the motorist
should always have his rear wheels at
least equipped with anti-skids
Some anti-skid tires are much more
eIISSllNe Inan OtnerS IN preventing
skidding = that is. some grip the road
much harder and more quickly than
others in case of an emergency. For
example, the Squeegee Bars on Dia-
effective-the outside bar wipes away
the mud as the side movement begins,
and permits the other bars to grip a
hard. smooth surface and hold.
There are times when chains should
be used, but under ordinary 'circum-
stances anti-skid tires are a sufficient
protection
In no case, however, should a mo-
torist drive with others in his car un-
less he is prepared for every emer-
gency.

FIRST DOSE ENDS INDIGESTION
HEARTBURN, OR GAS ON
STOMACH

The question as to how long you are
going to continue a sufferer from Indi-
g%estion, dyspepsia, or out-of-order
stomach is merely a matter of how
soon you begin taking Tonoline Tabs.
People with weak stomaehs should
take Tonoline Tablets occasionally,
and there will be no more indigestion,
no feeling like a lump of lead n the
stomach, no heartburn, sour risings,
gas on stomach, or belching of undi-
gested food, headaches, dizziness or
sick stomach; and besides, what you
eat will not ferment and poison your
breath with nauseous odors. All these
symptoms resulting from a sour, out
of-order stomach and dyspepsia are
generally relieved five minutes after
taking Tonoline Tablets.
Go to your druggist and get a 81
box of Tonoline Tablets and you will
always go to the table with a hearty
appetite, and what you eat will taste
good, because your stomach and mites
tines will be clean aad fresh, and you
will know there are not going to be
any more bad nights end miserable
days for you. Tonoline Tabs freshen
you and make you feel ike life is
worth living.
Tonoline Tablets cost $1.00 for a so
days treatment. At druggists or

BRITISH SOLDIERS MAKE
WEEKEND TRIPS HOME
NV United Prass.l

-
LONDON, Dec. 81 (by mail to New
York).-Week-en trips home from the
trenches are now a regular thing
among the British soldiers at the front.
The regiments which were engaged
during the desperate retreat from
Mons, and the subsequent advance
north to Ypres, are thoroughly ex-
hausted as the result of three months
of continuous fighting, and as far as
possible they have been withdrawn
from the firing line, and replaced by
fresh troops. Leave of absence is
granted wherever possible and the war
weary veterans make a Decline across
the channel for a weekend at home.
The names of the lucky ones are
published in the orders of the day, and
the men selected behave like school
bows at the end of the term "Tele-
graph for a dinner al the Troeadero,

a young officer on discovering his name
in the LIST, and in "a hours he Is IN
London. The mems chief grievance
is that they have to pay their fare
back. but it is expected that this will
be remedied. Curiously enough, the
thing the week enders from the front
want most is news, but they are much
disposed to discuss their own doings.
"Tired of war talk is the usual re-
spouse to queries.

THE IDEA

Henry Ford, of Detroit, millionaire
manufacturer of automobiles, will
guarantee to take every convict out
of Sing Sing prison and make a man
of him. He said so one day last week
when he appeared to testify before the
United States commission on indus
trial relations, which is Investigating
the great philanthropic foundations of
the country and the causes of indus
trial unrest.
1.-THE philanthropic foundations may
do some good said Mr.. Ford, "but
b are not adequate. My idea is,
Justice and not charity. | have little
use for philanthropists as such. My
idea is to aid men to help themselves.
Nearly all are willing to work for an
adequate reward. We have all kinds
of eripples in our employ and they
are making good. We have a great
many who have been in prison, who
are outcasts from society. Every one
of them is making a good showing and
is gaining in self-respeet and strength
of character We will guarantee to
take every convict ont of Sing Sing
and make a man of him"
Work is the sure cure for criminal
instincts. 1t is very rarely that a man
who works, and stays sober, gets into
prison. And should he 60 back to the
old methods after his release, it is
but a question of time until he finds
himself in again.
IT is possible that some good may
come of this government inquiry into
the causes of the present industrial I'M
rest. If the causes can be located
they may soon be remedied.
But industrial depression is by no
means responsible for all the crime in
the country. To what extent it con-
tributes can best be determined after
the senate committee has submitted
it's report.

MINERS DEFY ENGLAND'S ORDER
Government Commands That No Strike
Shall Go In Effect But Workers
Deliberately Disobey

London, July 15.-Out of the var
ious manifestations of unrest in the
British labor field shown since the
outbreak of the war. there developed
to-day what may prove. unless an
early solution is found, one of the
most serious strikes in the history OF
the country. More than $50, 900 men
have laid down their tools, thereby
shutting down virtually all the mines
in the Welsh coal fields which supply
steaming coal for the British navy.
Government Defied
The British government, using for
the first time the authority granted
by the so-called munitions measure,
ruled that the miners must not strike,
a proclamation to this effect having
been issued yesterday. The miners
answer to this proclamation was to
go On strike.
Though subject to a heavy daily
fine for striking and though urged
by their leaders to allow their de-
mands for higher payto be arbitrated,
the miners threw aside all advice and
to-day refused to take ptheir picks.
thus not only stopping the mines,
but leaving idle the mine railways
and some ships engaged in coal trans
mort.
