Ures that every woman prizes.
r. Nothing will chase both of them
away quicker than a gloomy DISPOSE
ton.
If a woman would keep her youth
and beauty it is folly for her to yield
to the blues and foolish mental states
that are bitter enemies of all that is
young and beautiful.
Smiling real smiles, not painful,
unwilling limitations of a smile, will
do more to help women retain their
youth and beauty than all the lotions
in the world. A woman is bound to
grow old some day, my skeptic
friends tell me in arguing against my
smile theories. Certainly. We must
all grow old in time. But haven't you
noticed a cheery-faced, white-haired
old lady with a smile that comes
from her heart? And didn't you
think she looked young and beautiful
in spite of her years? One can be
old and still look young. Age, Of
course, changes the lines Of youth,
but the beauty in women and that
CHEEKY expression of the face, which
is a sign of perpetual youth, will al
ways remain if they will only learn
the psychology Of the smile.
In the Sunday magazines of the
newspapers one reads of a multitude
of schemes used by women to deveI-
Op and retain beauty. Some take
milk baths. others use chamDagne in
their tubs, while many find comfort
in a vast array of beauty lotions,
creams, dyes and all that sort of
thing.
l care not for artificial aids to beau
ty. My smile suits me. Instead of
fndulging in some patent beauty
remedy in the mornings. I simply
smile. If I feel rather out of sorts
when awake I go through a series
of smiling exercises which have de-
veloped for my own use. Sometimes

want to impress this fact on the
women and girl who read these sto-
ries. Anger and gloom distort the
face and destroy youth and beauty.
Smiles have the opposite effect. The
face that is always smily may have
a few wrinkles around the eyes, but
the effect takes nothing away from
beauty, while the frOwn lines bring
on Ugliness. FrOwns are the express
sion of an ugly disposition and nat
urally paint similar picture on the
face.
No girl can hope to be good look
ing who weakly gives way to fits of
the blues, disappOintments and all
the ills that one meets up with in life.
Don't do it. It's not worth while.
Lies too short. You'll keep your
good looks and. attractiveness a
workable asset if you practice your
smiles and forget to frOwn.

strong, and very much boy" saw it
standing at 18th and Ashland at 3
o'clock one afternoon as he went
home from work. Later in the aft
ernoon he saw it again as he went to
the lumber yard to get some lumber
for his dad.
Later still, after he had sicked up
and put on his very best clothes, for
he had ''bid'' to party, he strolled
over to 14th and Ashland and the
tin lizzie" was still standing there
with no one around who seemed to
own it.
To Peter there came the tempta-
ton that has come to so many boys
in the past few years and has sent so
many boys to the House of Correc-
ton when it didn't send them to
Joliet prison, the temptation to take
the car for joy ride.
Peter knew all of the thrill of an
ticipation that the other boys have
known. AS he stood on the curb,
looking furtively around, he fancied
himself speeding over the boulevards
with that tightening of the breath,
that wide-open-throttle spirit of adj
venture that is the comrade of an
automobile, even if it is only 'tin
lizzie" And he saw himself arriv-
ing at the party and inviting some of
the guys to ride with him, and he
fancied their envy of him.
He didn't think further than that.
He didn't realize that taking a car
without the owners permission is
crime punished by Imprisonment. He
didn't realize that it is but a step
from taking a car without the own
er's permission to the recklessness
that leads to a holdup on perhaps just
the dare of companion who is also
reckless with the joy-ride thrill No,
he didn't think that far, so he stepped

him. For two hours he rode alone,
speeding UP as he reached the out
skirts of the city.
This was different from driving a
truck, where a fellow is working and
has to do it. This was gentleman's
occupation. This was what the rich
guys did. Peter forgot that he was
one of nine kids in family where the
mother and father work hard and
pride themselves on their respecta-
bility. He had a car to drive around
as he pleased. For a night, anyway,
he was one of the lucky guys.
He went to the party, but he didn't
stay long. The ''tin LIZZIE was out
side and he invited two of his friends,
Robert, who is %, and William, who
is 10, to ride with him. Of course,
Bob and Bill knew that the ''tin liz
zie" wasn't Peters, but what did it
matter? They were going to have
joy-ride.
They raced along. They laughed
aloud. They sang snatches of song
They whistled. Gee, it was SPORT

EAST CANAAN'S NEW BUSINESS
 [Continued rom page l.

freight cars for transportation to the furnaces and foundries.
 The net product, from a single cord of wood, in this process, which, by the way, is technically known as "the des- tructive distillation of wood," is 22E pounds acetate of lime: 10 gallons re- fined wool alcohol, and 50 bushels (20 pounds to the bushel, of charcoal.
 In the various processes of distilla- tion, etc., large quantities of water will be used, the source of supply being the Blackberry River; and this water, after doing it's work, will be returned to the stream. and subjected, on the way, to an elaborate and effec i've process of fil- tration and publication to insure its absolute freedom from any possible inn purity or injurious element.
 The plant is being constructed hv the Struthers, Wells Co., of Warren, Pa., the largest manufacturers of that class of structural work ill the country, and is expected to be completed and in actual operation by January l, next.
 The enormous quantity of wood re- quired to keep this single plant in opera. tion, even at it's initial capacity of six ovens, is something to make one won der how long the forests will be able to supply the raw material. At sixty cords day, a simple mathematical cal culation will show that single days operation will consume a pile of wood fo1r feet wide, four feet high and 4SO feet long. A pile one mile long will suffice for only eleven days. In one year, counting six days to the week, the plant will use IS, 780 cords, which would make wood-pile 283 miles long, reaching from the Hartford railroad station to a point three miles beyond the Springfield depot.
 That the Barnum, Richardson Go. has been fore-sigh ed in the matter of wood supply is shown in the assurance of Vice-President R. N. Barnum, that it has bought wood lands in Connecti. cut, Massachusetts and Vermont, stuff cient to supply the plant, working at its full capacity, for ten years to come, and has secured options on other large acreages of timber that will guarantee another ten years supply.
 The products of the plant will find an unfailing market. MT. Barnum says that the concern is already under contract to furnish every pound of ace- tate of lime that the plant can produce. Wood alcohol is a staple article that en- ters into an increasing number of uses and the demand grows in proportion. 1 The company expects to consume prac- tically the entire output of charcoal at it's various iron working plants, but can readily dispose of any possible sur. ; plus at a good profit.
 A force of thirty-five or forty men, including a half dozen skilled work men and chemists, will be employed at the East Canaan establishment, and a number of uenements will be erected for occupancy by the families of the employees.
 This is the first and only plant of the kind in New England, and there is none other nearer than the western part of Pennsylvania, while the great timber districts of Michigan have several slmi- lar plants in successful opcration.

Sales Manager for
Waite Tractors to
Attend Omaha Show

w. C. Owens, general sales manager for
Waite tractors, will be one of the live
wires around the implement dealers con-
vention at the Auditorium this week.
The Waite tractor is quite different
machine than most lightweight tractors
1t weighs only 300 pounds, has twenty
horse power motor and is built to pun
two fourteen-inch plows. 1t is general
purpose tractor and has wider range OF
usefulness than most of the lighter ma
chimes because of its speed. The throttle
and clutch are operated by one lever
thus doing away with complications. The
machine has eight speeds, ranging from
a crawling pace to twelve miles an hour.
The latter speed is attained by putting
rubber tires on the wheels and going on
the roads.
The Waite tractor is new in this terri
tory, but hes been introduced north and
south Only a few machines were sold
last season, as manufacturing was not
started until the middle of the summer.
Mr. Owens will attempt to place a local
distributing agency in Omaha during the
convention,

Everybody Talks
Tractor, as All the
Farmers Want En-

Everybody is talking tractors these
days and farmers everywhere are buy
ing them. Manufacturers everywhere are
giving special attention to the Develop
Lnents and demands Of the farmer None
Vof the manufacturers is more alive to
the situation and the opportunity opened
by the advocates of power farming than
the Altman-Taylor company. This COM
pany is now building its tractors in three
sizes-lS-S6 horsepower. 25-56 horsepower
and 5000 horsepower, giving a wide range
in expense and usefulness.
q. A. Hoig, manager of the Nebraska
branch at Lincoln, is one of the live
ones in the tractor game. He believes in
the tractor thoroughly and makes every
one he comes in contact with believe it.
"A tractor must not be an experiment"
says Mr.. Hoig, but it must be up to
date and have all the modern improve
ments. The man who secures the agency
for one OF the good tractors is fortunate
and will surely make a bushel of money
this coming season, / have few agen-
cies open yet, but am having little trouble
filling them, on account Of the general
knowledge of the prospects of the game.
The Altman-Taylor line is no longer an
experiment. as we have hundreds of them
in active service all over the country. We
have been in the tractor game a long
time and know it as well as any of the
manufacturers,

! BULLOCK EXPECTS
BIG GAIN In SALES
Omaha Distributor of Big Bull
Tractor Predicts 1916 Will Be
His Greatest Year.
EXHIBIT AT CONVENTION

THE Big Bull tractor" announces Mr..
Bullock. Omaha distributor, lis going to
enjoy the greatest sale in its history dur
ing the coming year. The Big Bull has
gained a just reputation for practical
biIty. reliability and freedom from re-
pairs"
Mr.. Bullock is bubbling over with en-
thusiasrn for the game In which he cuts
quite figure. Last year the Omaha
office sold 300 tractors in Nebraska alone
And trainlOad il coming from Mime
epohs to fill orders for spring delivery,
which now aggregate as many as were
sold during the whole Of last year
The rapidly increasing business of the
Big Bull people is indicative of the trac-
-. tor business in general. The farmers are
coming to realize that the tractor power
farming is more efficient than the slower,
more laborious method of doing the work
with horses. In many instances a tractor
has been worked for full twenty-four
hours each day for a week at time.
Has Contract No. 1.
Mr., Bullock has distributors contract
No. 1 with the Full tractor manufac-
turers. and his enthusiasm could not be
at higher pitch. The factory plans a
production of 5000 machines this season,
and this is thought to be below the de-
mand by the Omaha office.
At the implement dealers convention
the Big Bulr' will occupy booth No. 9
at the Auditorium. where open house will
be kept by Mr. Bullock.

That Which Makes
Work Easier Has an
Appeal for Farmer

"Show a farmer something that will
make work easy and you get his atten-
ton" This is an expression used in an
advertisement put out by the John Deere
Pillow company. It is true and the Deere
company has been showing the farmers
something to make work easy for many
years.
During the implement dealers conyen-
ton the John Deere company will have
a display OF some of its implements for
making farm work easy. 1t is an old
established line, but ono that has kept
up with the modern things in farm i'm
plements.
The Omaha branch has always been
one of the best in volume of business,
showing that this territory is among the
richest in production and that the farm
ers are up on everything that keeps them
in line for doing better work easier.
A For Sale" or "For Rent Ad placed
in The Bee will accomplish its purpose.
