PERSEVERANCE.

Genius is only the power of
making continuous efforts. The
line between failure and success
is so fine that we scarcely know
when we pass it, so fine that we
are often on the line and do not
know it. How many a man has
thrown up his hands at a time
when a little more effort. little
more patience, would have
achieved success! AS the tide

WEALTH CREATED
BY GOOD ROADS
Property in Wayne County
Appreciates S2.6 Per Cent
in Eight Years.

Money spent in road improvement Of
the right kind is making profit OF l25
per cent q year in Wayne County,
Michigan. The county spent s2,OOO,OOO
ON construction and maintenance dur
ing the eight years from 1905 20 1914.
inclusive. and iu this period the as
sessed valuation Of property IN the
county, outside Of the city Of Detroit,
increased from $50. 1O7 900 10 Slll,jiS,-
10. or e2.6 per cent.
OF this increase, 30 per cent, or S22,-
600 900. Is credited TO road improve
ment. because the assessed valuation
of Detroit increased only All per cent.
The increase In county valuation above
the rate of increase In the city was
eleven times the cost Of road work. or
1000 per cent profit IN eight years on
the total investment in improved roads.
More than l2J miles OF concrete road
have been put down by the Wayne
County commissioners since the coun-
IS system was adopted. in 1906. and
the roads built with the $1,000. coo
bond issue are still in good condition
and give every promise OF more than
OUTLYING the bonds. The commission
crs state in their report for last year
that they never have had 20 take up
and replace a single 25-foot section
since they have been developing this
type Of road. although some OF the
roads have been down more than seven
years.
Every mile Of durable roads laid is
cutting down the cost of upkeep. Last
year the commissioners had 80 miles
more roadway 20 care for than the year
before, yet they spent s5,l75 less for
maintenance. Notwithstanding they
have supervision over Las miles OF
other types OF road. such az macadam
and gravel. outside OF incorporated
cities and villages.
II Is estimated that 90 per cent Of
the traffic in the county ia carried on
20 per cent Of the road mileage. and
that concrete construction should be
continued until there are about $50
miles Of such roads

PUTNAM LEADS AS
A MOTOR COUNTY
One in Every Is Residents
Registers a Car with
Secretary Hugo.

In proportion to IFS population, more
automobiles were registered with Sec
rotary Of State Hugo last year from
Putnam County than from any other
county in the state, the ratio being
one 70 every thirteen residents; The
Bronx furnishing the other extreme
with one to every 205 Of its population.
In thirty-one, or an even half of the
counties. there was car last year
for every twenty-nine person or less.
The ratio for the state in general was
one TO every forty-one residents.
The comparatively light registration
IN The Bronx Is thought to have been
due not only to many residents of that
section registering their cars under a
downtown business address. but also to
the fact that The Bronx is the residing
place Of many young couples who can
not afford a car and the incidental ex-
penses.
The influence of location in deter
mining the popularity Of the automo-
bile Is shown by the Oswego County
registration. In that county there is a
car TO every sixty-six persons, the re-
suit OF the automobile being forced 70
share honors with the motor boat The
mileage OF a county's improved high
ways is also powerful influence
toward determining the number Of
automobiles owned in that section.

and at present there seems every ind'-
cation that the fight will necessarily be
continuous and for lonf period, If
real efficiency Is desired
when the wick OF a kerosene lamp
is turned too high it causes the lamp
TO smoke. This is so because too much
oil is burned for the amount Of air
entering the lamp; complete combus-
tion Of the oil Is not effected, and this
gives rise to smoke or SCOT, which il
deposited on the chimney. Tbs SCOT
is carbon, a carbon deposit.
And so it IS with your motor car en-
CINE. When a slow burning mixture
is provided the engine-that is, a MKT
ure which is low IN its proportion Of
air to gssolene--it does not burn quick
~ or completely, and so carbon de-
post is caused to form just as in the

justed to nicely and drives his car

Corbon ~ Common Cause of Motor Car InefGcienc)

II seems that while the oxygen method
is ideal 10 accomplish the purpose OF
carbon removal without undue incon-
venience or loss Of time, since II does
not require the dismantling Of the en-
CINE. yet there has been found real
need TO set up the safety first signal
so 10 speak.
The usual method Of administering
the treatment Is simply 20 insert the
tube from the oxygen tank into the
cylinder, whereupon the contact Of the
oxygen and carbon makes the latter
combustible, so that applying lighted
match at the opening ignites the car

ing. So far, We are led to believe, all
is well and the treatment has been
successful, but the terrific heat gen
Grated in the cylinder has unfailingly
had disastrous effect upon the &C
cessories with which IL came into con-
tact.
Spark Plugs Damaged.
/, The spark plugs are among the prin'
cipsl sufferers from the oxygen treat
ment Quite frequently this method OF
carbon removal Is made use of in en-
gines having two spark plugs TO each
cylinder, and the oxygen tube Is passed
through one Of the plug orifices. and
the remaining plug, not being removed
Is consequently subjected during the
burning of the carbon to terrific and
constant heat, such as was not taken
into consideration by the maker of the
plug. In consequence various detri-
mental results are liable 70 follow;
the porcelain or other insulating ma
terial may be damaged and the plug
thus made worthless, or the points or
electrodes may become warped. burned
and otherwise distorted from their
proper relation 10 one another.
Such a result can be readily imagined
and may be the very cause for the eK-
preston Of dissatisfaction concerning
the short service obtained from these
particular plugs.
There is nothing in the foregoing 70
condemn the oxygen process for car
bon removal (for that specific purpose
il seems very satisfactory, but the eX-
press purpose Of these paragraphs Is
TO offer the suggestion that with the
use Of this process a generally satisfac-
