REDUCING GLARE FROM AUTO
MOBILE HEADLIGHTS.

There is q rule of courtesy among
the better class Of automobiles
which teaches, do as you would be
done by" and it applies with special
emphasis to the use of glazing head
lights at night. Encouraged by this
spirit and by the passing Of city ordin-
ances against the use Of glazing head
lights in city limits, more than
score Of anti-glare appliances have
been put on the supply market within
the last few months. They sell for
almost any amount, from few cents
up to six or eight dollars. Notwith-
standing the fact that many of these
appliances are open to objection, how
ever, thousands of them have been
sold, and If the buyer but knew. 1t he
might have used the adjustments on
the lamps to bring about more salts
factory and efficient solution Of the
difficulty without the expense.
Three operations are necessary in
order to obtain the greatest amount
OF effective illumination and keep
most of the glare out of the ewes of
passing automobiles. They are:
a. Tilt the headlights slightly
downward SO that when the car is
standing on the level the center Of the
beam strikes the roadway anywhere
from rs tn 100 feet ahead. It has
been suggested that car manufactur-
ers can be of great help in the CAM
paign for reducing glare by making
this adjustment when the car is as
sembled.
~ Frost or lacquer the lamp
bulbs from the tip back to within about
five--eighths of an inch OF the base.
(3) Carefully adjust the lamp to
make the beam of light as narrow as
possible. ..t
Carrying out these suggestions will
result in a light of the greatest in
tensity concentrated on the roadway
at the point where the driver needs the
most light AS the beam of light is
projected downward the intense rays
will not be high enough to annoy or
blind the eyes of passing pedestrians
or chauffeurs. No device yet invent
ed can prevent the beam of light from
rising when the car comes over the
brow of hill. Under such conditions
each driver should realize the annoy
ance his lamps may cause and dim
them. Electric News Service.

THANKSGIVING DAY.

Lord OF the harvest, Thee we hail!
Thine ancient promise doth not fail;
The varying seasons haste their round;
With goodness all our years are
crowned;
Our thanks we pay, this holy day; f
Oh, let our hearts In tune be found.
When spring doth wake the song Of
mirth,
When summer warns the fruitful
earth,
When Autumn yields its ripened
grain,
Or winter sweeps the naked plain,
We still do sing, to Thee our King;
Through all the changes Thou dost
reign,
But chiefly when Thy liberal hand
Bestows new plenty DER thc land.
When sounds OF music fill the air,
AS homeward al their treasures bear;
We too will raise cur hymn OF praise,
For we Thy common bopn:les share.
Lord Of the harvest, all is Thine:
The rains that fall, the suns that
shine,
The seeds once hidden in the ground,
The skill that makes our fruits
abound;
New every year, Thy gifts appear;
New praises from our lips shall
sound.

he reached into the bag and drew out
a large doll, wrapped in paper. I'm
wrapping it, he said:
''rhere, what do you think of thatT'
Doris took the doll. "Oh. daddy, isn't
he beautiful? What shall we call
himY"
In mock meditation Strickland put
his hand to his forehead and appeared
to be thinking deeply.
WE'LL" he said slowly, ''as he came
from Germany. suppose we call him
Hermann"
Before Doris could accept the Ger
manic name for her new doh Bertha
appeared in the room and said to
Strickland. MIR. Trask is here"
1t was plainly to be seen that the
visitor was welcome to Strickland. He
forgot even Doris fol a moment and
turned eagerly to the servant, saying:
"Oh, yes! Bring him right in"

NOT ANY WAY IN HIS LINE
Chinese Doctor q Specialist in One
Form of AIIment and Would
Treat Nothing Else.

The Englishman knows how to
serve and he knows how to be served,
says Mr.. Isaac Taylor Headland in
"Home Life in China" but in the
matter of service and serving even
the E%nglishman must take a second
place, for the Chinaman has special
lied service as that has eve been
done in Great Britain.
We sometimes think we are special
lists in the West. We have our eye
specialists, a kind of servant, of
course, although l simply use them
to illustrate what l wish to say here ;
but they often combine with the
treatment of the eye that of the ear,
the nose and the throat. They have
not got down to a last analysis of
specializing as the Chinese doctor
has.
A mar had been shot with an ar
row, the head of which was buried in
the flesh. He tried to pull it out, but
the skin had closed over the head,
and he was not able to do SO. He
went to a physician to get him to
remove it. The doctor promptly
sawed the shaft off close to the skin,
and hen demanded his fee. But"
said the sufferer, "the head of the
arrow is still inside"
"Quite right" said the doctor. "a
am a specialist. l deal only with out
side diseases. If you want the head
taken out you will have to go to an
other specialist who cares for inside

ear of his listener, and the face which
was turned away from Strickland at
the moment wore a peculiar smile.
But there vas nothing to betray his
thoughts in bis information or words
when he replied:
"She must have guessed what was
coming"
Pride in his wife was now o
most in Strickland's mind as he an
swered:
Yes; women have instincts about
those things. l tell you, Jerry, she's
one woman in a million. She's stuck

business; never whimpered a minute

Trask raised his right hand in a ges-
ture of dissent He frowned just a
tri1e, and his voice sounded a bit bur
rled as he replied:
Some other time, Bob. I've got to
hurry away. By the bye, I'd like to
have you come down To my place at

Trask took from his pocket a card
and u pencil and wrote on the card.

He gave the card to Strickland, who
placed it in his pocket with the word

T AND THE MAN.

An amusing incident occurred last
week in a certain British government
office during the medical examination
of members of the staff eligible for
military service. The men disrobed
in an anteroom, and on entering the
presence of the doctors one of them
was found to be suffering from govt,
whereupon one of the medicos, no
doubt having in mind the traditional
high salary and easy time of the av-
erage civil servant, solemnly adjured
him to give up port and high living.
The funny thing about it was that
the person lectured happened to be
the office coal porter, whose meager
salary barely provides for the necessi-
ties of life!
