COPPER CAN'T GET AWAY WITH
THIS SORT OF THING AT HOME
Because the copper is the guy who
tells everybody else how they shall
conduct themselves doesn't mean he
can always pull the same stuff at
home. This is the tale of a copper
who tried it and failed and landed in
the court of domestic relations yes
terday charged with nOn-sUppOrt of
his wife and two children.
Detective Serg't James Carney of
the 35th precinct, but especially de-
tailed to the states attorneys Office
at present, was the copper.
Mrs. Carney said he wouldn't give
her any money on the 1st of May,
that he used such terrible language
around the house that she was
ashamed to have the children hear,
and that he had a vicious temper.
Carney replied by blaming it all on
the relatives of his wife.
IT'S just scrap all the time when
I'm at home" he said. 81 don't want
to live with the woman any longer;
l cannot get along with her. Her
relatives butt in and l ordered her
to stay away from them"
81 stayed away from my relatives
for four years and you scrapped with
me just the same" said Mrs. Carney.
"And, your honor, he owns the fiat
building where we live and he told
the people in the top fiat that he was
the boss and they should pay the
rent to him. He owns another prop
erty that he let's his mother live in
rent free. He makes $119 a month"
Carney mOdestly acknowledged
that he owns the two properties sub
ject to mortgage, but said he sold the
bonds that his wife also accused him

Britisher Says
Eight Cylinders
Is the Limit

With the gradual increase from time
to time in the number OF cylinders in
the automobile power plant one of the
questions occasionally heard is, where
is II going to stop7"
Writing on this subject in the Autocar
Imperial Year Book. published in Lon
don. w. q. Aston, an English engineer,
comments in these words:
ut may now be asked why not con-
tinue to multiply cylinders and gain an
even better result The answer TO this
is very simple. Eight cylinders are only
two more than six. and the improvements
which they produce are very marked.
Now the next size OF engine would be
twelve-cylinder. or half again as many
cylinders. which would not possibly give
80 per cent better result. and so on. A
glance at the torque curves will show
that as the cylinders are increased the
difference in the characteristics OF the
curves tends to become less marked.
Drawn on the same scale, the curves OF
"a sl;;teen-cylinder engine would hardly
be distinguishable from the twelve. and
twelve scarcely distinguishable from
those of the eight. For ordinary pur-
poses, therefore. the eight may be con-
sidered to be the ideal as we'll as the
practical maximum, for motor car work
at all events"

February Shows Big
Increase for Paige

February showed an extraordinary in
crease OF business for the Paige-Detroit
Motor Car company over the total bust
ness OF the same month last year. The
increase in the number of cars built and
delivered was III per cent for that sin
gle month over the February, 1916 record.
Comparing the total number of cars
built and delivered during the one month.
February, 1916. with the total number of
cars built and shipped during the entire
twelve months of the company's first
season. five years ago. is even a more
striking commentary on the extraordi-

Paige. This comparison shows that the
business for February. 1916. was 1877 per
cent greater than the. business of all
twelve months OF the first year added
together. And II we compare the business

little time has been necessary to equip
