MOST OUT OF TIRES
Methods to Employ to Secure De-
sirable Increase In
Mileage.
AR PRESSURE IS IMPORTANT
Examine Carefully for Small cuts and
Rsmeve Nails Or Other Sharp
svbstaness That May Have
Been Picked Up.

When anyone purchases an auto
mobile tire. he buys-if 1t is q guar
anteed one, made by reliable manu-.
facturer-a certain definite number of
miles. Therefore any mileage he may
obtain over that guaranteed by the
maker. u Just that much saving to
him, which can be computed In dollars
and cents. To illustrate: II his tires
cost $3.50 each and are guaranteed
for $500 miles. his mileage cost per
tire would be one-half cent for each
mile the tire Travelled; but supposing
he obtains an extra 1900 miles or q
total Of 5000: then he could reckon
on clear saving Of $50. 1t is
therefore the object Of this article to
show the car owner methods Of caring
for his tires 20 that he can expect to

This Is an Age Of Young Men
But They Are stu Young
II on Sunny Side Of Seventy

A generation ago It was customary
to talk Of those who had reached forty
az Of mature age. A man Of those
years II now considered young. and
at sixty or seventy can have . bril-.
liant future still ahead.
That our forefathers had no such
conception Of relative youthfulness can
easily be shown, says Thomas r. "a.
gon in Leslie's Weekly. The Constitu.
tion provided that no one should be
eligible for election to the senate at
an earlier age than thirty-nve. the
reasons advanced being that such .
restriction was necessary in order b
keep the senate made up Of grave and
reverend seigniors-elder statesmen,
who would not be blown about with
every veering wind Of political doc
trine. Today there Is not senator

limit, and the great majority do not
come into senatorial honors short Of
nfty and fifty.five.
secretary Of the treasury at thirty.two.
The younger Pitt became prime minis
ter. first lord Of the treasury. and
chancellor Of the exchequer Of Eng
land at twenty.four. Washington
spoke Of retirement from active life
to well-earned rest and leisure for
his remaining years when stlll but
forty-six.
In recent times We have had no
presidents young in years by the for
mer standards. unless Roosevelt be
classed MS an exception In connection
with his first term Of service. Even
the popular novelists have scnsed the
change. now making their successful
business men Of forty or thefeabouts
attractive to the heart Of the female
reader. This Is admittedly m age Of
young men. as has been claImed, but
they are still young anywhere on the
sunny side Of seventy. and many Of the
most eflicient have passed the three

and steel firing steel on its errand

The encounter was violent and de-
cisive. The Austrians were routed
to be technically correct-were anni-
hilated. The Italians occupied the
position and signalled headquarters

posts. The result was the eventual
occupation by the italian armies Of tho
entire Austrian system on that sector.

1t was dusk in the Carnic Alps.
The deep green hues Of the mountain
forests were blending IN the cleaning,
and q restful gloom was settling down
in the mountains. Insects hummed
and droned among the blue grass Of
the pastures. Devious pathways cut
an uncertain course through the volup-
tuous color of the vegetation.
Along one of these overgrown guild.
ing ways regiment of the Italian
Bersaglieri was making a tOrtuOus
ascent. The crests Of the plumes In
their helmets were rustled by mel
low breatlis from the Adriatic. and the
gravel was crunching under rough.
shod soldier feet. Otherwise no sound
came from this redoubtable column.
For these men were moving forward
to attack an enemy position which
their air forces had failed to locate
all through humid day Of death.
The Austrian battery had swept
with withering waves Of steel the
backs Of these hoary Italian mountain
crests. Thirteen thousand of Italia's
first line troops had vainly endeavored
to pass the enemy emplacements. The
blood Of Italy's sons dried on every
leaf and gravel path, and her wounded
lay where the Red Cross could never
reach-at the feet Of these eternal
piles. mangled masses of human flesh.
The Bersaglieri. Italy's strange,
swift-loplng infantry. was going into
the action: expert. accurate marks

on the flanks had engaged enemy pa

ceeded in adding to the perplexities
Of the situation.
