PREVENTS SKIDDING OF CARS
Safety Device Intended to Avert Slip
ping Of Cars Given Test on Wash.
inaton Street..

An invention with safety first as
its basis was demonstrated here on
the slippery streets during the rain,
says Washington Star. The mechanism
which is part of the rear construction
of an automobile, Is intended to pre-
vent skidding and to assist traction on
muddy roads.
1t was on account Of an accident to
a large motor car a few years ago that
prompted the inventor to study the
skidding Of motor cars. He located
the cause and Immediately set to work
to remedy the defect, constructing an
axle that would prevent skidding.
The device will prevent one wheel
turning backward and one forward at
the same time; 1t will not allow n
wheel to spin and n to stand still,
hut drives both wheels in the same d.
rectiOn all the time; thus both wheels
of the vehicle are always under o
troll. A large touring car which was
used In the demonstration was sent
down Capitol Hill Friday at 10 miles
an hour " n wet pavement covered
with leaves. The brakes were sudden
ly applied, but there was no indication
Of a skid. The leaves piled up in front
Of the wheels until the brakes were
released, when the car shot ahead.

Charles s. Mellen, New England's

"There is, it is true, an abundance

Art Of HANGING Pictures.

Pictures should have a strong base
below. a large c%enterpiece above. and
a higher point above this. thereby
meeting architectural demands. A sofa
against the wall, or a bookcase, or a
large table may form the base, with
an important picture as the center
piece, either square o oblOng. At all
events the base should be wider than
the structure above. and there. should
be a higher point of apex. The best
of ones pictures should be placed
over the fireplace.

Possible Automobile Buyers.

In the rural or farming market,
there are 6,5OO,0O0 families. One mil
lion of these now own motor cars and
one and One-half millions are poor, H.
literate, who for the purpose of this
study may be excluded from the pros
pective class. There remains. then,
100000 farm families who are posi-
BILE automobile buyers.
In the urban class, covered by il 1000
towns and cities of more than five
100000 home owners Of which num-
Der only 100000 now own cars. Ac-
cordingly, there remain 100000 pros
pective buyers in this class, or a total
actual unsold market, in both rural
and urban classes, of 100000 possible
automobile buyers. i.
The accepted average life of an au-
tomObile is about five years In the
hands Of the original owners; and as
the man who once owns a car will not
thereafter be without one, we must
include the recorder market which in
the calendar year of 1917 will be about
100000, this being 20 per cent Of the
100000 now In use.
Buyers In 1918.
For the year 1917, therefore, the au-
tomobile business will fnce a market
of about 100000 possible buyers. Not
more than 100000 cars will be built
in the coming year, leaving a possible
excess market of 100000 buyers at
the beginning Of 1918.

So much has been written relative

that a clear and simple analysis OF

much of the %unfOunded conjecture.

Here is another fad for the girls.
The Girls Government League.
Why can't the girls think of
something new instead OF copying
after the boys. One reason that it
will not be success is that the
girls will not hang together but will
quarrel for leadership and nothing
will be done.
The girls will tell their friends
what happened in the secret sess-
Ion of council and it viii be secret
no longer.
The girls will forget this fad in
a few weeks. The parents of the
girls should object to school time
being used for such a. little thing.
Women are more anxious to get
into public offices and thus get into
the limelight.
When a man has disagreement
he forgets it but a woman never
forgets it. Richard A. Thornburgh.

THE THREE SONS OF KING GEORGE

In olden times there was once
king who had three sons. He low
ed his sons very much and said he
had not had sad day since they
had come into the world.
The citizens of the town thought
he was a cruel king and treated
them very badly and cruel. They
thought one of his sons would be
better.
Finally one day several cit
liens came to him and told
him that his sons were just wait
ing for him to die so they could get
his kingdom and rule over the peo-
pie. He did not believe them for
a while till so many got to coming.
One day he called his sons to
him and did not tell them what
the citizens had said. He told them
each to go to foreign country and
the one that could bring him the
incest shepherd dog could have his
kingdom and they also must be
gone a year. This pleased them
very much.
Each started out and went a diff
ferent direction. Neither one went
to the same place. They came
back and each said he had a nice
journey. They were in the room
and the king was about to decide
which to take but he decided he
didn't want to give up his kingdom
for any more than that.
He told them to go and find them
each a wife and the one who
brought back the incest and most
beautiful young lady should have

his kingdom. They were to be
gone year again this time.
They all had a nice journey this
time. The youngest one went to
a country and went to another pal
ace to see il there he couldn't find
a young princess. He went there
and was welcomed very kindly by
the king.
1t was about time for tea when
he got there. He and the king
talked quite a while, then the SER
want came and told them that the
evening tea was ready.
The two went in and sat down.
He saw there were places for
three. In few minutes young
princess came in. She was beau
tiful lady and seemed to be very
nice.
The young prince stayed the
rest of the time he had left which
was about six months. In the
meantime the young prince had told
the king what he had come for. He
said his daughter could go if she
wanted to. She was very much
pleased at this.
The other two sons had come
but the king choose the youngest
son to take his kingdom. In a few
weeks the king died. The other
two brothers went away and we do
not know what became of them but
this young prince and his wife lived
very happily ever afterward and so
did the citizens.-Marjorie Holdings

ABRAHAM LINCOLN

On the twelfth of February we
celebrate the birthday of the great
and noble president Abriham Lin
coin.
This ambitious man came from a
very poor but honest family. When
quite young he lost lis mother and
so the poor boy was left to fight
the misery of lie the best he was
able. Young Abraham had very lit
tie schooling, less than year put
together, but during all these years
of hardships and work he was hun
CRY for reading matters. He would
walk miles to get a book, and for
writing material he used an old
shovel and charcoal He managed
to get books Of all kinds and he
learned TO help himself. At the age
of twenty-one Abraham worked and
saved his money for future life.
Some years after he was chosen a
candidate, and C86D was elected
president Of the United States.
IN this office he labored for the
welfare of the Union. Everyone
came to this kind hearted and mer-
ciful man to ask for help and nOne
left his home without having re-
ceived helping hand. He freed
the negroes from their hard works.
On April 18th, accompanied his wife
to a theator in WASHINGTON, Here
he met his death, being shot by
Wilkes Booth. we must also try
to become honest and faithful in
life as this good and noble man.

woods there lived boy about nine
years old He was very frail and
Of course did not attend school.
One day he. was sitting in the
kitchen with his mother and as she
got up to go to the other room John
slipped out the door and walked
toward the woods. He first came
to gate which was easily opened
then continued his walk down the
road and sat down on log. He
was sitting there for while when
he heard a noise which seemed to
come from somewhere near, and
turning around saw large snake
crawling up behind the log. John

screamed and jumped off of it and
began to run but the harder he ran
the faster the snake crawled, and
as he had gone so far from home
he was lost and did not know where
he could go so he kept on running
until he came to stream which
surrounded the woods and of course
he could not swim but for defense
he jumped in and was just about
to drown when he awoke and found
that this was all dream.
What might have happened to
John when he got home?-Eliza-
