MAXWELL HOLDS
MANY RECORDS
r e m a r kable Performances
Prove Car Has Extraor-
dinary Qualities

That the Maxwell Car holds more
records than any other regular stock
automobile in the world, was the
statement made by C. e. Stebbins,
assistant sales director of the Max
well Motor Co. Mr.. Stebbins went
on to explain that speed records
made by the specially built racing
cars did not interest the average
prospective buyer, except as perhaps
an item of sporting news.
Maxwell Cars" continued Mr..
Stebbins, were never intended for
race courses. They are built for that
great body of conservative people
who want a car that will run every
day, as fast as they care to drive and
Will do this at low operating cost.
"Of course the Maxwell is gener-
ally recognized as the worlds en-
durance champion. And we'll it has
merited that title. Any stock car
that can run for IA days and nights
without a motor stop, covering 22,022
miles of all sorts of city streets and
country roads-without any repairs
or readjustments-is worthy of a
place in the Hall of Fame.
Besides that recoro we have doz-
ems of others, few of which l will
cite:
The ascent of Mt. Wilson, Pitts
The ascent of Mt. Wilson and Mt.
Hamilton, Portland 20 Spokane
Pittsburgh to Philadelphia, Detroit
to Indianapolis, Jacksonville to
Tampa, and many otner speed rec
ords are held by our stock cars
Then there are many economy per-
formances including the "A mile run
in and around Detroit on one gallon
of gasoline. In addition-the tests
made by the Yale University and
Prof. Gallup of Worcester Polytech-
mic Institute, prove surprising econ
omy, endurance and al around eff
cheney.
. "Of course it is we'll known that
the Maxwell racing cars driven by
Rickenbacher during the past year
are the very fastest American cars
ever built"

Car of Perfect Balance
Is the New WHY'S Six

Weight and power in scientific
balance is the predominant feature
of the latest edition of the WHY'S

Toledo. Ohio.

speaking of the latest addition to the

it enough that car should be light

1T is the relation of power to
weight, and of the weight of one part
to the weight of another - in other
words. balance that is the all
important factor in a motorcar.

According to Information from the

Naturally, this means better per-
formance: lower upkeep cost and

and down.
First you notice a restfulness in
its riding qualities that is singular
ly unaffected by road conditions a
restfulness that almost makes any
ride seem short.
Part of this is due to the bal
anced distribution of weight through
out the chassis, causing the car to
hold the road steadily at all speeds.
And part is due TO freedom from the
little irritating vibrations of one kind
or. another that you have always
taken for granted.

PNEUMONIA
TAKES TOLL
Responsible For 1907 of
11,490 Who Died Dur
ing April

Pneumonia caused almost one
sixth of the deaths in Pennsylvania
during April, according to the sum-
mary of vital and mortuary reports
for Pennsylvania issued by the State
Department of Health to-day. The
figures show 11,949 deaths, of which
pneumonia caused 1907, tubercu-
losis causing 1,104, Brights disease
976 and 57S being due to cancer.
The figures announced by Com
missioner of Health Samuel G.
Dixon also show 1874 births, which
is higher than in February or
March.
One of the interesting showings
is that typhoid fever caused only SO
deaths, scarlet fever 22 and diphthe-
ria JAG. Measles are credited with
SO deaths, while whooping cough
caused SO and influenza III. Six
deaths were due to infantile paraly-
sis and 16S to meningitis. Diarrhoea
caused 353 deaths, 76 being of chill
dren under two years of age while
619 children died in early infancy.
There were ninety-two suicides in
the state in April, while 113 per-
sons died from railway injuries and
10 from accidents in mines.

BREAKER BOYS
HURT JOYRIDING
Refused Compensation For
Injuries Received While
Not Employed

The State Workmens Compensa-
ion Board in an opinion by Com
missioner James w. Leech has af-
irmed the award of Referee w. w.
Champion, of Williamsport, refus-
ng to make an award to James Bur-
.ows, Mt. Carmel, a breaker boy en-
ployed by the Susquehanna Coal
Company at Lykens, who was hurt
while Joy riding" on truck at a
siding. The claimant with four
others rode on the truck at the noon
aour and on the fourth trip it jump
ed the track and Burrows was hurt.
The opinion says that the case
presents a very important point.
The appellant contends" it says,
that If an employe whose presence
upon the general premises of the
employer is required by the nature
of his employment is injured at any
point upon those premises by reason
of any conditions found thereon, he
is entitled to compensation. This
contention would go so far as to
require compensation to be paid to
an employe, who desiring to leave
his immediate place of work, in or
der to descend to the ground floor
for his luncheon or for any other
purpose, chose to do so by sliding
down rope which might be hang
ing from a wondow rather than by
descending the stairs provided for
by his employer for his descent" ."

districts of this state as proof that
the revolutions have worn themselves
out and the people are returning to

In all of the fertile mountain VAL
leys, on the plans of the north and

Chihuahua farmers are putting in
crops many of them for the first

wheat and even potatoes are being
grown on the highly productive

Battery Charge
and Discharge

while being charged or dis
charged a battery gradually under
goes a chemical change" says man
ager of Standard Auto Supplies COM
pany, 113 Market street, of the USL
Battery and Service Station. with
out going deeply into the minuCe
chemical detail let us say that dur
ing the charge the battery vitals
change progressively from one chem
ical state to another. During this
transition the temperature of the
battery rises, the electrolyte bubbles
and throws off hydrogen and oxygen
gas, and the specific gravity in
creaSes."
After you have completed the
charge and opened the circuit the
battery will retain its secondary state
almost indefinitely under a sort of
tension-that is, it is trying to re-
gain its original state and will start
to do so at the first opportunity. So,
when you close the circuit, with your
starting or lighting button, the bat
terry Vitals will start a progressive
chemical change back to their first
state and in SO doing will deliver
electrical energy"
'Electrolyte is a mixture of water
and acid. Acid is the heavier. Dur
ing charge the acid progressively dis
unites from the plates and enters in
to the electrolyte making the latter
grow heavier. During discharge the
acid combines progressively with the
plates. leaving behind the water and
thus making the electrolyte lighter
and lighter. The progress from one
value of specific gravity to another
is in direct proportion to the de-
gree to which charge or discharge
has been carried. The battery
builder makes his plates of de-
finite composition and uses electro
lyte of definite specific gravity so
that thereafter unless the user upsets
the plot by carelessly transferring
electrolyte from one eel to another
by turning apothecary and introduc-
ing excess acid or other material,
the specific gravity at rny moment is
the one definite index to the state
of charge of the battery"
Car owners who are interested in
the real inner workings of their stor-
age battery are advised to get, free
of charge the interestingly instruc-
tive booklet BLACK Box of Mystery
Explained" which is mailed upon re-
quest by the U. S. Light and Heat
Corporation of Niagara Falls, n. Y"
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1917-06-30

The opinion concludes that the car
was being run as q plaything when
the accident occurred and that the
accident was not due to the condi-
ton of the premises even though the
car was derailed by q defect in the
truck. The concluding statement is
that the accident was due to "the
claimants unnecessary reckless and
unauthorized use of his employers
appliances for his own personal re-
creation"
At the same time Commissioners
Leech allows compensation to Domi-
mic Masciantonic, Atlas, a breaker
boy of the same company, who at
another mine went out along a tip
pie track during his lunch hour and
tried to take off a chain at the re-
quest of another employe. The chain
was on q car which was started and
crushed his little finger. 1t is held
that he attempted to adjust a chain
at request of an employe. AN en-
ploye who receives a request for
sudden help from those in charge
of a certain part of the work can be
required to make elaborate investi-
cation into the power of fellow en-
ployes to demand his assistance"
says the report.

What to Do With Legs
of Old Stockings Is the
Latest Problem of War

Washington. June 30-Mrs. J. S.
Cargile. of Arkandelphia, Ark, has
appealed to the Women's Committee
of the Council of National Defense to
make inquiry with view to ascer-
tanning to what use, if any, stocking
tops may be put. She asserts that
S1,0O0.0O0 worth of stockings are
wasted every year by American wom-
en-, and adds that this wasted portion
of hosiery will not be taken even
by ragpickers.
Mrs. Cargile makes it plain that her
suggestion does not apply to silk
stockings, since she says that silk
hose should not be worn at a time
when thrift and economy are to be
practiced.
