The Only Remedy.

She was in the grip of an appalling
realization. This moment-this actu'
ally present moment that was going
to last only until she should speak fol-
the next time-was the critical mo.
ment of her life.
"Roddy . :" she said.
He was slumped down in a big easy
chair at the other side of the table,
swinging a restless foot; drumming
now and then with his fingers. Some
sort of scene was inevitable, he knew.
And he sat there waiting for it.
He thought he was ready for any
thing. But just the way she spoke his
name startled-almost frightened him,
she said it so quietly, so-tenderiy.
"ROddy," she said, II want you to
over here and kiss me, and then
go back and sit down in that chair
again."
He went a little pale at that. The
swing of his foot was arrested sud-
denly. But, for n moment, he made no
move-just looked wonderingly into
her great, grave eyes.
Something's going to happen" she
went on, land before it's over, I'm
afraid it's going to hurt you terribly
and me. And l want the kiss for us
to remember. SO that Wen always
know, whatever happens afterward,
that we loved each other" She held
her arms to him. Wont you

I'm the old way"
There was a long embrace.
Il don't believe I'd have the courage
to do It," she said. IF it were Just me.
But there's someone else-T've made
a promise. I can't tell YOU
about that. Now please go back and
sit ove there where you were, where
We can talk quietly. Oh, Roddy, I love

light your pipe. Oh, don't
like that! It isn't a tragedy,

He went back to his chair. He even
lighted his pipe as she asked him to.

Heroic Books.

Life is not habitually seen from any
common platform so truly and unexag.
geratedly as in the light of literature.
Books, not which afford us a COVERING
enjoyment, but In which each thought
is of unusual daring; such as an idle
man cannot read, and a timid one
would not be entertained by, which
make us dangerous to existing in
stitutions-such I call good books.
I. The heroic books, even If print.
ed in the character Of our mother
tongue, will always be in a language
dead to degenerate times; and we must
laboriously seek the meaning Of each
word and line, conjecturing a larger
sense than common use permits out Of
what wisdom and valor and gener.
osity we have.-Thoreau.

KEEPING CAR CLEAN
Many People Pay Little Attention
to Appearances.
SMALL PARTICLES CUT METAL
Good Washing With Soap and Water
Will Save Many Dollars In Repair
Bnis-Avoid Soap on Highly
Polished Body.

Some people pay little attention to
the appearance of their cars, washing
and polishing only on rare occasions.
A cleaning and polishing is necessary
not only because 1t makes the car
look better but because it increases
life and makes for smooth running,
writes H.. A. Tarantous of New York
In Orange Judd Farmer. Mud and
dirt on the running gear parts, such
as brakes, universals, ETC., would. be
perfectly harmless If it remained away
from the working parts. However,
the small particles work their way to
the moving parts and cut the metal.
This applies to the steering system
also.
A good cleaning Of the running
gear with soft soap and water when
ever the mud accumulates will save
many dollars in repair bills. Use tepid
water and be free with it. A large
sponge well soaped should be used to
free the mud from its lodgings. Do
not use this same sponge for the body
because the small particles Of sand
will cut the finish. Use soft cloth for
cleaning.
BE Careful With Hose.
In using a hose around the car be
as careful as possible not to get water
into the brake drums and other parts.
If a little are Is exercised the water
can be kept away. Use the sponge
for these places to free the mud. In
washing the radiator direct the stream
of the water from the rear with the
hood lifted or of. If this is done no
water will get onto the motor and
possibly into the magnetic and carbu-
rotor. Clean the steering knuckles
and even the rear axle housing. After
the running gear is clean proceed with
the body.
Never use soap on a highly polished
body. Nothing but water should be
used. II there are mud spots they
should be soaked off with water. If
you rub the mud while 1t is hard it
will cause scratching of the varnish.
Apply 4 Polish.
When the body has thoroughly dried
apply a polish Of some sort. The wax
are good, and If applied once
week will make the cars always look
bright. Liquid polishes which are
upon the body can be applied
IN about one-half hour. No rubbing is
necessary with these polishes. A wip-
ng after applying is all that Is need
I'd.
For the upholstery use a mixture Of
half linseed oil and half vinegar for
up the leather. Apply it
with a cloth and allow 1t to remain
for about an hour. Then
wipe the upholstery again, so as to re-
any chance Of sOiling the clothes
Il the passengers.

causes the a to be operated more and
more on the gasoline. At a certain
point 1t will run as a straight gasoline
car. neither charging nor discharging
the battery. Further advance uses the
excess power to charge the battery.
Using both motors the car will develop
a speed Of 40 miles an hour.
The points of the car are described
in this way: D
It may III as an electric, with any
Of the advantages possessed by an cleo
trio. It may travel as a straight gas
car. 1t may travel on both gasoline
and electric power at the same time,
with the same simplicity Of operation.
The gas engine charges the battery.
The car has all the luxuriousness of
the higher class cars which have been
produced for years and looks like a
gasoline car 1t has no transmission,
there is no shifting of gears and the
clutch is operated by electricity. The
makers say it will travel through mud.

JACK OPERATED BY A CHAIN
Saves Motorist From Getting Under
Car, Saving Hands and Clothing
From Dirt and Grease.

Getting in underneath the car with a
jack, when use Of such an appliance is
necessary, is often accompanied by get
ting the hands and clothing grease and
dirt-stained. Furthermore, some jack
handles are likely to fly up, letting the
car down with a bang and perhaps
causing injury to the motorist. A new
type is operated by a chain. When the
jack is in place under the axle, haul
ing up the chain ~elevates the car. Pull
ing the other way let's the car down,
and when the Jack is no longer needed
1t can be drawn out from under the
automobile, again by the chain. The
