A novel type of arTored motor car
has been designed by a resident OF
Lowell. Mass. 1t contains some very
original ideas as to protection from
rifle and guntire The car is shaped
exactly like turtle, the upper and
lower shell being joined at a distance
Of about sixteen inches above the
ground. The wheels are almost en-
tirely covered by the armor. The lat,

immune from rife and machine gun
fire. as the bullets are reflected into

scope for steering, emergency doors
in the rear and on both sides. a pow.
erful motor under the drivers seat,
and a quick-tiring gun mounted on a
revolving base-these are all parts OF
the design.

the state treasurer will make his
reckoning of receipts and expenses.
My experience is that he is the one
official who does not try to "mor key
with the facts, but they sic not all

very safe before getting enthusiastic
about reduction in taxes, To find out
whether or not expenses are being
cut. | mean in the aggregate, not in
isolated instances. Talk about this
or that fund separately, is idle. What
the people want is all the facts as to
income and outgo. When they get
them they can determine without
outside direction, whether or not tax
es are lower. Apropos of the point l
am trying to drive home, see that
tor the fiscal year ending Jan. /, 1916
receipts from automobile licenses are
likely to be about S428, 2S6. No news
paper that | have seen refers to this
goodly sum as taxes" out it looks
just like taxes to the people who pay
it, and it is well toward 100 per cent
bigger than it was year ago. The
talk about our reduced taxes is still
very premature.

TURNED THE TABLES.
One Doctor Who Found Way TO Beat
the Bill Collectors.

Several years ago" said New
York physician, there was physi-
clan in this city. dead now, whose
greater fame was as a chemist. but he
had fine medical practice. Like u
good many others who have money to
pay their bills, the doctor was extreme
~ slow pay, and collectors had hard
times getting TO him. Invariably when
one called the man on the door would
ask If he wished to see the doctor pro
fessionally, and if the caller said he did
not he was assured the doctor was
not in.
Finally one Of them went at it right,
and when the man on the door asked
IL he wished to see the doctor prOfes
sionalIy he said he did and was 20.
itely passed into the waiting room. a
dozen more patients were ahead of
him, but he was inside at last and on
his way to the Doctor and he waited
patiently. When he reached the doe
tor and said he had come with a bill
there was a great row at once, and
the doctor Indignantly berated him.
However. being honest enough, he paid
the bill.
1.-THE collector didn't care so long
as be got the money and straightway
told how he had done it. Then anoth-
er one tried it and was successful, but
no more were The third collector got
In with a bill for about SO. but he
didn't get out with that amount The
doctor charged him $40 for his profess
sional call and handed over the bal
ance. one or two others We're treated
the same way on their professional
visits. and the word soon got around
among the collectors, with the result
that their professional calls were aban-
doned, after which collections were
made any way they could be made ex-
cept that way."-New York Sun.

THE OIL OF LIFE.

Tact is a gift that not everyone
possesses, but a gift much to be de
sired. 1t is needed in business, in
society, among friends and in the fam
lily circle. He who blurts out dis
agreeable truths and things which
need not be said fails to realize that
when 1t is necessary to say a disa
greeable thing 1t is quite as effec
tive to use careful. kindly language
In the family and among intimate
friends personal remarks are often
made that were better unsaid. OF
carefully spoken in private. The Idea
that anything may be said in ones
own family or with intimates is mis-.
take; the greater the intimacy the
greater need of tact to keep relations
on a pleasant footing. 1t is a wise
parent who can administer family gov
eminent with tact When one has not
tact by nature he should endeavor to
cultivate it. Always thinking before
speaking is one aid to this. For
speaking impulsively, one is quite like
Iy to say things that a moment later
he wishes unsaid. Speaking impul-
sively, one often gives an idea quite
different from what he had in mind.

From time immemorial the black
sheep has been the symbol of iniquity.
But there is now In this country an
unprecedented demand for the wool
of black sheep. This is caused by
the lack of dyestuffs due to the war
and the consequent lack of black wool
for fabrics. II is dis covered at this
late day that the native black wool is
superior to the dyed article and breed
ers are being asked to multiply the
supply Of black sheep However,
there should be no attempt to increase
the number OF human black sheep. OF
whom there is always an oversupply.

The average person does not think
of ivory as an absorber of water,
but this quality of the product was
brought out In customs case The
American Express company entered
ivory, which 1t claimed had absorbed
moisture on the. voyage from South
Africa. Collector Malone's men
weighed the product and found that
It exceeded the inYolced weight by a
fair margin. The collector according.
ly took duty on the weight found after
the ivory had been unloaded from the
vessel. When the ivory was later
weighed at the factory of the ultimate
importer the weights were lower than
those returned by the government Off.
cials and Appropriated the weights
contained on the invoice. When the
question came before the board of
general appraisers Judge Waite did
not attempt to decide whether ivory
is an absorbent of moisture, but held
that the importer had failed to prove
his case. So the question remains an
open one.

los YEARS OLD
AND STILL PREACHING

In the Interesting People" depart
ment of the September American
appears an article about
Aunt Mary Goddard who is 105
years old and still a preaching elder
in the Quaker church. She lives in
Brunswick, Me, and for more than
seventy years has sat on the facing
seat" in Quaker meeting houses, exer-
cising a quiet influence for peace and
good will. Following is an extract
from the article about her:
LAS a preaching elder she has la
borode among three generations. From
the families to which she has been a
minister of the Spirit have come men
who have done things; yet it is doubt
full IL any one of them has really done
as much as she has.
THE could hardly be a greater con-
trast than that between Aunt Mary's
peaceful sunset and the present Euro
pean cataclasm. It is perfectly con-
ceivable that this war with all its
appalling destruction of human life
may leave the nations deadlocked,
ready TO fight again, when their
strength is renewed, and that it may
not really count for so much in the
progress of the race as the quiet lives
of those who hold to the doctrines of
the Society of Friends"
