FIRST IDEA FOR MOTOR CAR
Invention Of Gottlieb Daimler Was the
Germ From Which sprang Pres
ent Immense Industry.

Little more than thirty years have
passed since Gottlieb Daimler, then a
director Of the Otto gas engine works,
invented the first engine worked by
explosions Of gas.
It was an engine worked at such un.
heard-Of speed-we are going back to
that time In using the epithet-that the
heat generated in the working was suf-
ficlent to ignite the subsequent charges
Of gas once the engine had been set
running.
In 1886 he mounted this engine on a
bicycle, suspending 1t vertically be-
tween the front and the rear wheels,
and making 1t drive the rear wheel by
O belt.
In this primitive motorcycle, for such
1t now appears to us, was embodied
the first real germ of the motor car
Of today.

ARE GIRLS BECOMING UGLY7
EneIishman Makes the Assertion That
Beauty Is Fading AZ One Re-
suit Of War.

"Women will be not only physical
wrecks, but they will become decidedly
ugly II they continue to do mems work
for an indefinite length Of time. They
will be unfit heirs to the heritage that
will be handed down to them"
The words were spoken with EN-.
phasls by a man who should have
known what he was talking about.
II must be admitted that the health
and beauty of our women are In these
troubled times suffering on colossal
scale. but 1t is the wars strain and
not the nature of their work which Is
causing the mischief. Any work just
now must come as a blessing In dis
gulse to the majority Of our women.
The novelty Of the duties Of tram
guarding, working on the railways,
farm laboring and other kindred occu'
pations brings diversion, and In many
Instances saves the reason Of many

The Precise Meaning
of and Cause for Cut
Prices and Clear
ance Sales
By J. r. HAMILTON
Former Advertising Manager Of Wanamakers, Philadelphia

When YOU see a suit of clothes marked down say from $50
to S22.50, you generally assume that the merchant was over
stocked. But when you see a cut price on a diamond or a dining
chair or any other staple article less responsible for it's sale to
style, you are apt to question the legitimacy of that sale.
Therefore the following facts, which will be A, Is, q to every
buyer and merchant, will probably be interesting news to you
Aside from the store thst merely lies about it's prices and
the store that cuts the figures on some trivial article as a oalt'
there are four contributing causes for a cut price.
The cause which most people already understand, OF course,
is toe much stock. No buyer can tell just what pattern OF a suit
when it is found that any article is not eagerly bought, 1t IS
quickly reduced in price. The reason for this is too evident 10
dwell upon.
The second cause is the financial one. Every merchant
allows himself and each of his buyers just SO much money TOT
every stock of goods carried. For example, a shoe department
which is allowed $4,000 upon which to do business must 40
business on that much capital. The buyer must be in the market
for new goods at certain seasons of the year. Ii his capital Is
all tied up in old stock he will not be able to buy new stock.
Therefore he must have ready capital even at the expense OF
profits.
The third cause is your mental effect on the people who have
to sell the goods. The moment you, the public, do not buy a GER
tain article, that article Immediately loses value in the eyes CT
the man or woman who is selling it. Again and again the buyer
is obliged to cut the price Of perfectly good merchandise SIMPLY
because YOU, the public, have made his salesforce lose faith
in it. The moment you won't buy it they can't sell it.
The fourth cause is the interest on the investment. a stores
money is made by the number of times it is able to turn its stock
in a year. The greatest dread of any store is of stock which does
not "turn." Some merchants have figured that it pays them to
sell every article in their store at least once a year. And such
merchants do this even with such staple articles of rising value
as diamonds themselves.
These are the four laws for clearance sales and cut prices,
and, knowing them, you should watch the advertising eagerly
for the many advantages you are sure to find.

For a Present.

some people who were kind. He once anchored his ships before a

Gould he have a hurricane if he wanted tor asked Jack.
Yes for he al manager of all the winds. But he wa too wise to make
trouble. you see. When Odysseus stopped at his island Aeolus was very glad
to see him and treated him kindly When the Greeks left he ave their leader
a present of a leather bag full of winds all tied up with a silver string winds
both harmful and helpful, with the command to them that they blow the brave
Greek ships safely back to Ithaca, where Odyseus' home was
so nine days the Greek ships sped before the winds, and all this time
Odysseus stood at the helm, ordering them, without any sleep. At last, quite
worn out. he lay down % rest. and while he slept the Greeks curiosity got
the better of them. They felt Of the bag and punched it and finally decided that
it must hold treasures that King Aeolus had given their leader Greedy to
get sol of this treasure. they united the silver string to rn their hands in
the bag when u rushed the winds that had been shut in SO long, just like
wild horses let out of a stable They seized the Greek ships and drove them
back in their course right Oh to the very island they had just leftr'
Seems 20 m curiosity always gets you into roubler' cried Jack. The
other day wanted to see what mamm keeps in her ley glass bowl. and
when lifted it off the shelf to see dropped the bowl and smashed it"
We'll, the Greeks curiosity got them into trouble &c, for the kind King
Aeolus was Sc angry att their stupidity that he refused Ito let them ven land.
He would neither help them again nr give them another bag of winds. So
the Greeks, in n unknown sea and hundreds Of miles from home. without
much food and very homesck after long wars, wereo obliged to take to their
oars again IN tolfuny ow their boats over the same course the helpful winds
had once obHIngIy blown them"
That's taught mi a lesson" said Jack. After this 1 an going to keep m

PREVENT WAR

OUTLINED IN ADDRESSES IN
BOSTON MEETING
Preparedness For War Leads to Mil
itarism, But This Purpose Not
Designed i'm Program

BOSTON, Jan. 10.-Speaking in Fame
uil Hall this afternoon before the
closing session of the conference OF
Society to Eliminate Economic Causes
of War, Raymond l.. Bridgman, publ
cist, declared the most vital purpose
of preparedness is not preparedness for
war, but preparedness against war. He
said in part:
Nor is u purpose preparedness
for war, but preparedness against war;
not that we may be able to fight sue
cessfully, if we are forced, but that we
may not be forced.
"The present popular craze for pre-
paredness for wal leads straight to
militarism. Prussian preparedness,
the very root of modern militarism,
vas the direct u of the exhaust
ing ornaments of Modern European
nations. Militarism inevitably per-
verts national moral sense. 1t breeds
treachery, the policy of frightfulness,
cruelty, slaughter, the trampIing of
treaties as scraps of paper, the sink
ing of Lusitanias, the murder of the
Armenien nations, the shooting of Ed
18th CavellS. Human nature is the
same in America as abroad. That is
what preparedness for var will do
for u.s."
Roger Sherman Hoar, ex-assistant
attorney general, who was the next
speaker, said:
Let us waste no life trying to
stop the present war. That question
will be settled by the belligerents
themselves. If we woulL prevent
war, we must eliminate the causes of
war. Cause should be distinguished
occasion. The cause is what
builds the pyre for a world conflagra-
ton, whereas the occasion is merely
he match that happens to set it off.
The monster we must blame for lay
ing the foundation for the present
is a Jekyll-Hyde sort of deity,
whose good name is Patriotism and
whose bad name is Nationalism. A
score years ago we owed our allie
glance to the state, today we owe it
the nation, tomorrow we shall owe

Just a few minutes thought will ex-

pie need or want produces wealth.
The ratios Of labor to capital in diff
feJent enterprises vary widely. When
a man earns a dollar and a half a
day with a one dollar shovel the ratio
is high, when he earns three and a
half with a four hundred dollar team
and wagon and has feed and repairs
to pay for, too, the ratio is low.
