.DOBLE STEAM AUTOS
FOR NEW YORK SHOW

The new steam cars being built by the
General Engineering Company, OF De-
trOit which embody the Doble steam
power plant, will be seen for the first
time at the New York show in jan
uary.
The statement from the General En-
gineering Company that their power
plant is a refinement and development Of
standard steam practice as applied to
automobiles has caused many people to
inquire as to the extent that Mr. Doble' s
work can be covered by patents.
Mr.. Doble says in this connection that
the patent situation is in every way sat
isfactory.
The patents cover all the laboratory
and experimental work done in the last
five years, and all the patent work has
been, and is being, taken care of by
legal firms Of the highest standing" he
declares.

SUNLIGHT SIX MOTOR
HAS NOVEL FEATURES
Large Carbureter Part Of Mechanism
Making High Speed Possible.

TITS the little things that really count
in the design Of the automobile motor, -
declares F. J. Quinn. president Of the
E. J. Quinn Motor Car Company, Is2s
NJ street northwest, who recently has
been appointed representative Of the Sun
Motor Car Company. Elkhsrt, Ind.
Up until the past few years II looked
as though the only way 70 increase the
power Of an automobile engine was TO
increase the bore Of the cylinder, which,
Of course, necessitated a larger cylinder
casting, resulting in a motor that was
clumsy and heavy and eXtrayaEznt IN
It's use Of gssoliDe and oil
The tendency at the present time, and
II Is undoubtedly correct is TO increase
the power OF the automobile engine by
Increasing the speed rather than the
size.
There are many things In design that
afect the speed at which a motor may
run; In the first place, the reciprocstin
parts must be very light and carefully
balanced. the crankshaft must be de-
signed in such a manner that Il will
be possible to revolve II at high speed
without excessive vibration, and while
the motor bearings must be free from
friction as nearly as possible. at the
same time they must be strong enough
to stand the most severe strains
Two OF the most important factors
that determine the speed at which q
motor may be operated are getting the
gasoline vapor into the cylinder and the
burned gases out Of the cylinder a.
quickly as possible.
In the Sun light six motor which
is an exclusive Sun design, much at
tention has been given 10 these points
A large carbureter is used. and the m
take manifold, which is cast within the
cylinder block are made smooth by a
sand blast operation. in order that the
gas may pass from the csrbureter to
the combustion chamber without undue
friction

Well Known Citizen Of Bir-
minghan Says Ferraline Did
the Work for Him. Cured Of
Rheumatism, Kidney TrOu-
bic.


Everyone in Birmingham knows Mr.
T. L. Bell who lives at 4o7 Cotton
avenue, West End, as he has been there
30 years, and everyone knows that
Mr.. Bell weighs we'll his words, and
that he would be far from making any
statement that was not true. Mr. Bell
has this to say to a representative OF
the Frankville Medicine company: I'm
Ferraline you have a remedy that is
truly wonderful, and one that will do
even more than is claimed for 1T, and
when the people of this section know
that Ferraline will do so much they
are going to have 1T in every home in
this city, Tor L consider that Ferranne
will be the one household remedy In
q very short time
"Ferraline did more for me than any
remedy that 1 have ever used. 1 suf-
fered with the worst kind of rheuma-
tism for five years, and used every
thing that L could hear of, but moth
ing did me one bit of good, and for
the past two years L have suffered
agonies with kidney trouble and ecze-
ma.
IL saw in The Age Herald what Fer
raline had done for others and de-
cided to give it trial. When 1 began
using Ferraline 1 could scarcely walk
and the pains that 1 had in my limbs
and back at times seemed they would
put me out of business. The itching
on my feet from the eczema worried
me awfully, but I want to say to you
that Ferraline gave me relief right
away, for / had only used one-half
bottle before 1 could see plainly that
was improving.
The awful pains that I had in my
back and limbs have entirely gone,
my appetite is fine and the eczema
has completely disappeared, and I want
to say to you that 1 only used two
bottles and 1 am now a we'll man, and
know full well that nothing on earth
cured me but Ferraline.
Il am going to tell all my friends
what Ferraline did for me and am
going to see that they take 1t, for
would not be without it regardless OF
what 1t costs.
Everyone in Birmingham that
knows me asks me what L have done
for myself, and some of my friends
hardly know me as look and feel
like a different person. Several of my
neighbors and friends have told me
that Ferraline is in a class by itself
for indigestion or any form of stomach
trouble, but I know what it will do
for kidney trouble, rheumatism and
eczema and am going to see that my
friends know 1t. too"
