In 1913 a motor reaching a maximum
speed of from 1,4OO to 1900 revolu-

last word in high speed stock mo-

Among the new features which
have been commented upon favorably
in the new Six-3O Chalmers are the
aluminium pistons, one of the most
advanced features installed in stock
cars during the past year. Until
quite recently aluminium pistons were
used only in few specially built
racing cars, but their adaptability to
high speed stock motors was soon
discovered by the ever watchful fac

royal family circle in London has been
further strengthened by the arrival of
the Connaughts. who. since their return
from Canada. have proved that they
also have kept abreast with Nine. la
Mode. I caught sight of Princess Pa
from Clarence House up st. James street.
She had a particularly becoming fur
wrap around her shoulders, and her
little hat of dark blue velvet, with a
large ornament in front, was tipped
at a saucy angle on her beautifully
coiffured hair. She looked rather tired.
but very smart and pretty.
One Of the wonders OF modern times,
however. as far as royalties are con-
cerned. is the Queen of Spain. who
seems to have accomplished a complete
metamorphosis in the last three years.
She promised to be rather too plump
and pleasing" at one time, but now she
has fined down" to an extremely ele-
CANT slenderness of figure, and she
dresses most beautifully and has her
lovely fair hair arranged after a style
that exactly suits the pretty line of her
throat. Evidently these modern royal
women have realized the supreme i'm
portance of an ornamental appearance,
even in these times of strife. Queen
Mary is much beloved throughout Great
Britain, for women regard her as a
model of all that is good and sensible.
She. perhaps. pays less attention than
of daily attire, but when she is en-
grand tenue there are few women who
can surpass her in dignity and splendor

The Anger Of a God.

ne anger OF GOO.
Within the walls of Corazon del Sol
there lived a god He didn't know he
lived-he was quite ignorant of his
own existence. If he had ever lived
he would have died from ugliness.
But there were those who knew he
lived. They were the inhabitants of
this ancient Aztec village-Corazon
del Sol, the Heart of the Sun. They
knew he lived, because periodically
and quite persistently he demanded
flesh. 3
Just now he stared straight before
him through the gates of the crum-
bling walls. The high priest followed
his glance. --....-... O. II s--.-.-.5ss
Suddenly the high priest started and
held high his hand. A group of Aztec
warriors answered the summons. In
crude uneven order this crowd rushed
through the gates and stood at bay
Across the clearing was another group
