Don't put a mortgage on your judgment
in buying car.
There's many a man in this county who
paid too low price for his car-and lived
to regret the day.
am not saying anything against low
priced cars. There are a number of good
ones. They do the job well.
am trying to get people to get birds
eye view of the motor car situation instead
of a worm's-eye view.
Sometimes by paying a hundred or two
hundred more you get $500 extra value.
refer now to the 1917 34OO r. m.
Chalmers. Here's car that has been run
more than 100000 miles i'm the hands
of owners, yet attained a service record OF
99.2lfo perfect.
That is the mark of great car. And
though it costs, possibly, a little more than
you ever paid for a car before-remember
that extra little sum gets you from the zone
of a fair car to the zone of great car.
1t is not only money in your pocket in
the long run, but pride everywhere you
drive. There's pleasant and interesting
satisfaction i'm driving a regular car.

q am trying to solve a mystery" said the amateur philosopher, and I would fain confess that it has captured my capricorn"
 Your whom?" demanded his friend.
 ''My capricorn, which is an imag- mary goat that serves as one of the twelve signs of the zodiac
 "Ah, I see," said the friend. Well, what is the problem that has your goat?''
 Tt is this; Why is it that when a fellow is most anxious to make a good impression he always makes some fool break?"
 T don't know, but what's the an- swer?"
 There isn't any that I know of, but the thing is forced upon my attention a every turn.
 For instance, I was invited to my girls house for dinner last Sunday and l felt pretty good about it. I thought of the old saying that the road to a mans heart lies through his stomach and 1t cheered me considerably to inn agine that the idol of my dreams was thus laying siege to my heart, which, needless to say, in it's present stage of unpreparedness and dodOism, would have to surrender at the first sign of a hostile intention.

A SHAMEFUL CONDITION.

According to careful estimates re- gently made England has 500, ,OOO school children wanting meals and not get ting them; and this does not include the children under school age who are not getting the food they need to sus- tain them in health.
 This is an appalling state of affairs of which any country should be ashamed, especially a country worth eighty billion with an annual income of ten and a half billions, and which boasts of it's great intelligence and power.
 A country that is breeding paupers by the million and undermining the health of millions of her working pop- ulatton because of a rotten and arbi- trary system of government should not be surprised to find her citizens slow to respond for defense, or her subjects easy victims of the tempter when the reward is ample.
 England needs a great humane and industrial reformation which will place her people on a par with the well paid and well fed people of other civ ilized lands.
 Her present system of treating la bor is a menace to her future prog ress.

DEEP PROBLEM

agreed with her father in his political opinions, praised everything in the house and was getting along excellent ly and then dinner was served.
 T do not cough once year on an average, but at that dingdonged meal as soon as I took a bite of. food some of it slid clandestinely down the inner tube of my esophagus and immediate ly there was a blowout. I felt as if had been marked down for @ special sale, but wasn't through yet. Next l upset my peas in @ horrid mess.
 Her father was a good sport and tried hfs best to make me feel at ease, but his remarks only added to my nervousness. I overturned the coffee and in reaching suddenly to prevent it from going over got my elbow in the gravy.
 They served me another cup of coffee, but when they handed it to me it slipped out of my fingers, but that was an accident, pure and simple. I wouldn't have done it if I hadn't first got my fingers in the butter"
 Well, you had a streak of bad luck, that's all"
 Its worse than that my friend Such an experience shows that some thing is at work teaching humility to the fellow who is trying to put up good front. And the worst of it is that the girl cooked that dinner all by her little self."-Chicago News.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
The MunicinaI Peril.

MT. Editor: In regard to the traffic laws created and made effective by the late democratic administration; also the hurdles which it took the late street commissioner four years to build and which after 50 days of republican rule, were removed, "Oue Who Likes to See a Crowd" thinks they should be made good. Is there anything au- tOcratic about that?
 He further says: If l should leave the city there would not be anybody here to oppose these ridiculous laws" Great Scott! What would become of Norwich if he should run into a troll ley car, or tear out a store window with his automobile and get killed?
 I shall have to acknowledge my but few of us common people have as far as advising him to go to--IIn a member of the Y. M. c. A. and our aim is to help such as he to keep in the straight and narrow path. As far as the present street committee, and other city officials are concerned, they are simply enforcing a law which was left them by the late departed demo- cratic administration, of which I should judge by the "One Who Likes to See a Crowd" one of the chief mourners.
 He says, "If I left the city there would be no one left" Great Scott! Just think of it! Anything autocratic about that. or is it just plain bristles, or self conceit?

HOW OLD ARE NOIJ7

Age is more a matter of mind than of years. Some people look as old at 35 as others do at 75. The saying is that man is no older than he feels"
 The Psalmist's limit of three score and ten has had a depressing effect upon men who have accepted it as true.
 "Shut the door to the sum-" says an Italian proverb, "and you open the door to the doctor"
 Youth doesn't accomplish everything If Hercules in youth did perform the Twelve Labors. There are great young men and grand old men figuring in the worlds history Raphael and Byron and Keats and Shelly did their great work in the 20's; and Jesus and Alexander the Great theirs in the sos; but Galiles was about 70 when he wrote the laws of motion; Ludovico wrote the memories of his times when l15; Noah Webster studied IT Ian- guages after he was 50; Longfellow, Whittier and Tennyson did their best work after they were 70.
 Every man is the superintendent of his own energy and may conserve or waste it. Many men who were invaI- ids in youth have lived to be centen- narians because in the morning of life they were compelled to learn the laws of health.
 We hear of men nowadays 70 years young. These are not thinking of death, but of the blessing and abund- lrcs eS Ese.

Only One Conclusion.

The laboring men of the country learned in 1915-14, before the war be- gan, that reduction of tariff duties did not reduce the cost of loving. Several millions lost their jobs or went on Part time. From their point of view, there fore, they couldn't have been any worse off if the protective tariff had continued. They were considerably worse off with it reduced. Now that the war has brought another era of prosperity and they have work and good wages, they cannot be convinced that it is the Underwood tariff which has brought about such conditions. There is only one conclusion for them to reach as to their interest in the tariff uestion.-Doylestow (Pa) In telligencer.

PENSIONS FOR LETTER CAR
 RIERS.
RIERS.

The bill to retire the letter carriers and postal men generally on a pen sion of $500 @ year, has been reported out of the committee, with the recom- mendatiOn that congress pass the measure.
 Since most of our large private cor porations are peusioning old employees who have devoted their whole lives to their interests when they retire; and municipalities are pensioning their aged and incapacitated policemen. there is no reason why this great gov ernment should not take care of the men who so faithfully serve the whole public in all sorts of weather.
 The letter carriers are the public's burden bearers; and they are loaded two and three times a day with papers and letters and travel regardless of the heat or the cold more miles a day than most of us imagine. It is hard and responsible service in which they suffer for our convenience many dis comforts and hardships.
 Many men who have rendered less valuable service to the people are drawing pensions today: and there is no reason why the handlers of our mails should not in old age have sus- tenance and comfort assured.

London, Aug. 1-Education is one of the most vital of the after-t -the-war reform crusades which are agitating the public mind. The Oxford and Cambridge traditions of instilIing a little old-schooI learning in the way of Latin and Greek, hand in hand with really expert knowledge of cricket and judgment of the vintages of port, are to be scrapped to make room for chemists and engineers if the reformers have their way. This burning topic was discussed by the House of Lords recent ly. That the American ed- ucational system should be cited on the side of the "humanities' in a debate over the merits of classics yer suS sciences in the British senate may be surprising to the American pub lie, if it is not so to the professors with these matters. It was, however, quoted in support of both the prac- tical and the idealistic theories.
 The debate was largely a. compar- ison of the merits of the British, Ger man and American schools. Lord HaIdane. the former War Mig ster and former lord chancellor, was respon- sible for the discussion. Lord Hal dane. like MT. BalfOur is student of philosophy for recreation, and as he Sdlu, mas ueNOIeQ mucn or ms tune for twenty years to the study of ed- ucation. His books are well known to American educators. He is being de- nOunced now by the German haters for his famous saying: Germany is my spiritual home" and largely be- cause Of that remark and all that it was taken to imply the Scotch jurist and philosopher is 2 plain member of the lords instead of one of the cabi- net. Time may change his status for loyal friends like Mir. Asqufth and Sir Edward Grey consider him one of the great minds of the country, and Field Marshal French recently paid him a high tribute to his work in preparing the army for war
 Lord Haldane had much to say about the German system. He made a plea for schooling in the practical sciences, but first and throughout plea for more schooling. His figures regarding the youth of Britain were a revelation, if not a sensation. Lord Cromer, for a quarter of a century the British ruler of Egypt, although himself not a university man, was the

THE NATIONAL ENcAMPMENT.

The Grand Army men are looking forward with feelings of interest and pleasure to the national encampment which is to be held in Kansas City the first of September, although the rail- roads are not making the concessions expected. A one-cent t-a-mile fare was asked for the round trip, but a two- t-a-miIe rate was given between the east and Chicago and from Chi cago to Kansas City a little in excess of two -cents-a mile, and the time limit of 30 days was cut in two.
 Since there are less than 47,O00 of the fighting men of the sixties on the pension rolls, it is not to be expected that they can command the same con sideration they did when there were many times this number.
 The matter of a few dollars of ex- pense will not deter many who have planned to go; and the reception and entertainment being prepared for the veterans by Kansas City will make the trip worth all it costs.
 The tickets may be obtained on and after Aug. 26th; and on Sept. 10th the start for home will have to be made.
 Tho ages, of the veterans and the distance of Kansas City will oblige many new England veterans who would like to attend to remain at home.
