CLEVELAND MAN HAS
SCHEME TO RUN AUTOS
E WITH COAL OIL
(By United Press }


Cleveland, July 8.-About a month
from today George A. Eynon, a local
machinist, will begin to market a
carburetor that will, it is claimed,
gladden. the motorists heart by run
ming his car with coal oil instead of
priceless gasoline. ~
Eynon accidently discovered the
principle by which he devised his
carburetor One day he spilled some
oil on rag and carelessly brought
hot iron near. Vapor was given
off,. The problem was solved.
Eynon wrapped four inches Of
thin wire around few shreds OF as
hestos and sent an electrical current
through the wire The asbestos act
ed as a, wick and the heated oil va
porized enough oil to start the en-
CINE. AS soon as the engine is
started, the electricity is turned off
and vaporization is maintained by
the burning of little oil in COM
bustion chamber.
A test proved that car could be
driven 60 miles on four and a half
gallons of coal oil. Heavy cars fitted
with the carburetor have made 1 1 to
IL miles on a gallon of kerosene.

INFANTILE PARALYSIS,

An epidemic Of infantile paralysis
is rapidly spreading through eastern
states. The following are the symp-
toms and the treatment for infantile
paralysis:
SYMPTOMS Infantile paralysis
starts with a cold, which usually
takes the form of running nose and
frequently sore throat.
Often a slight fever and stomach
disorders accompany the cold
Ninety per cent of the cases in the
New York city epidemic are children
under the school age, but adults are
not immune.
The patient will complain of weak
ness. A slow paralysis will follow
affecting at first the arms and legs
and possibly one side.
After two weeks the paralyzed
parts will begin to waste away, while
the stiffness gradually diminishes.
TREATMENT-T instant child
is suspected of having the disease a
doctor should be called.
The patient should be completely
isolated
The limbs and parts of the body
affected should be given absolute
rest. Paralyzed arms and legs must
be bolstered up with pillows and the
weight of clothing kept from them
by means of hoops or some such de-
vice.
After the paralysis leave the limbs
the most important curative measure
is massage and training of muscles
affected.
The contagious period lasts twen-
ty-eight days, during which the
strictest caution must be observed
against spreading the disease.
Only one person in addition to a
physician should take care of the
child, and the nurse and doctor
should wear special garments for sick
room attendance.

STATE GEOGRAPHICAL
NAMES. AND THEIR HIS
TORICAL SIGNIFICANCE

K WATONWAN COUNTY
The name of this county,
X which was established in
K 1860, was taken from that of
K the river whose head waters
traverse it's area. The word
K is of Dakota, origin. OF the
K explanations given as to it's
significance, that of Rev. M.
N. Adams, an early mission
airy to the Dakotas, is without
doubt the most probable. In
his opinion the present form
is misspelling of the word
K "watanwan," meaning fish
X bait" or where fish bait
K ,abounds. The word is &C
cented on the first syllable;
the "a" of this syllable has
K the sound of "a" in father"
K and the "a" of the final sylla-
BILE is sounded like ga in

Consider the Quail.
Tour Dumb Animals J

Tour Dumb Animals
1t is estimated that a single quail
destroyer rs 900 bugs and 5000 900 weed
seeds annually. A quail killed in q
Kansas wheat field had the remains
of 1000 Hessian flies in its craw, and
the fly causes the loss of $40, 900 900 to
the wheat growers of the country
every year.
1t is not enough to protect the
song-birds! 1t is high time to look to
the future of the quail, one Of the
most beneficial of all cur birds, lest
the sportsman and his dog, the snare,
the trap and the net reduce him to
total extinction.
