The German note regarding sub marine warfare came as a surprise to Count Adam Tarnowski von TarnoW, the new Austro- Hungarian ambassa- dor, who arrived here to succeed pr. Dumba. During the days he was on the Holland-American liner Noordam journeying to this country no wireless news was received on board. The am- bassador refused to discuss this new phase of the situation.
 ''The peace proposals of central powers were dictated by motives of good to humanity" he said. "They were spurned by the entente allies, and the struggle must now go on. Just before I left Austria I had an audience with the new emperor. He

The Bible Institute.

The second week Of the Bible Insti-
tutc, conner Reid and Fourth streets
showcd Il marked increase in the at
tendance and interest over the first
week. The attendance Sunday night
was far in excess of the fondest hopes
/ Of the workers connected with the
meetings. It was estimated that at
least $50 people stood through the
entire service on the outside Of the
tent, unable to find seats. The evan
gelist promised to remedy this aitua-
ton and have sufficient seats ready
to accommodate all who will come in
the future,
The question and answer service at
the close Of each meeting is being
appreciated by many. In addition TO
the singing by the choir, the congre-
cation joins in singing all the well
kown favorite hymns as they are
flashed on the screen. The leader is
mjnistc, Of the Seventh Day Ad-
vcntist faith.
Some very interesting discourses
were delivered during the week; the
work is not sensational or emotional.
One very unusual proposition made by
the evangelist was, that neither he
nor his company were here after the
money of the people. That while of
ferings were being taken. they would

As you seem to have tried every
thing else the trouble is probably in
the piston of No. 3 cylinder. 1t may
be worn, giving piston slap at cer-
tain speeds. Probably the cylinder
is badly worn also, thus aggravating
the trouble. The cylinder would then
need to be reground and larger
piston fitted.
The space between valve litter and
stem should be very small - less
than 164 Of an inch for exhaust,
and no more than to 81 900 of an
inch for inlet.
