Drawing for space at the National
Automobile Show is conducted on a
basis Of business done-in money, not
numbers Of cars-for the July to
July period annually. 1t is interest
ing, therefore, to observe the order OF
drawing for the New York exhibition,
which runs from January to II Of
next year. because it gives line on the
business Of those manufacturers who
are member, Of tho National Automo-
bile Chamber Of Commerce and who
decided they wanted to exhibit. II is
to be remembered that Ford is not a
member Of the N. A. c. c.
The order Of drawing for the 1918
show, reading down the first column
and following with the second, is given
herewith:

Another dastardly blow at the pup

where the factory handles the publicity

Points About the New Models


Straight line bodies mark the new
Stearns cars. Mechanical changes are
minor.
The Case is now q six. A CONT
mental engine has replaced the four
cylinder power plant
DETECTING lenses are standard in the
new Studebaker hvo-passenger cars.
The front seat Is all one piece, unlike
the individual seats of the sevsn-pas-
senger.
The exhaust manifold extending
through the hood. like the old racing
cars, is a feature OF the Vclie sport
model Nine different body styles are
offered on the Two chassis.

The Wings Of the Morning.

Congress has passed the great aviation
bill, with IFS appropriation OF more than
six hundred million dollars. and thou-
sands OF American mechanics have sprung
to the task OF building such an air fleet as
the world has not yet seen, and. until
this war broke out, none but poets had
imagined.
II IS in every way fitting that We should
do this. As we have lifted our cause
above material gain, the lust OF conquest,
the desire for trade expansion and en-
lsrged boundaries, so we are going 10
lift our first great military effort above
the blood soaked ground into the blue OF
heaven and as We invented the flying
machine, so now We are going to make
it the most terribly efficient engine Of
destruction.
Germany laughs at the idea that we
can build great air fleet in time TO be OF
any use. Have her leaders never heard
how Perry got fleet on Lake Erie and
what he did with il ? To be sure, the
task is job for a giant. II will be very
hard 10 get the right kind OF wood prop
erly seasoned for the frames. II must
be straight-grained. iawless spruce, OF
the kind that fifemen's ladders are made
Of, and il must be air-dried. That means
al the least year or two OF seasoning;
you can dry il in day or two in the kiln,
but that makes il brittle and useless. Ex-
pert lumbermen and woodworkers are
securing the country for The right kind of
stock. and they will get II. There are
other woods, too. Norway pine will do
nearly as well as the spruce; aud We
can also fall back on the inexhaustible
Western fir, the stiifest wood that grows
and one OF the strongest.
Months ago The aviation board took up
the problem OF engines with true Amer
ican daring. The French have designed
and built mavelously efficient aeroplane
engines. Why not copy them 2 Because
they are complicated and require great
deal OF hand labor by the most skilliul
machinists We want something simple,
strong, efficient, something that can be
standardized and turned outby machinery.
We believe we already have il, for the
aviation board called together the greatest
automobile engine designers In the coun-
try and put the problem up TO them. In
few weeks they had designed and built
the engine, American from drawing board
TO installation. II is now undergoing It's
tests.
The men who are 10 sail and fight In
our new navy OF the air are coming, too.
In half dozen aviation training schools
they are learning the grim business on
which they are soon 10 embark. Talk
with any one OF them a few minutes, and
think what their brothers have already
done in France, and you will hold up
your head and thank God that the spirit
OF America is still alive.-Y0Hfh'S Com

A Poem Rich With Thought.

No Single poem in the English language
perhaps has contributed so many lines
that have passed into currency OF quo
tations as Gray's famous Elegy. II is
veritable mine OF epigrammatic nuggets
that have enriched the language OF orators
and writers and become such familiar
property that their origin is almost for
gotten and they seldom now receive the
credit even OF quotation marks. Here
are few OF them that will be recognized
as old friends
"The short and simple annals OF the
poor"
erich with the spoils OF time"
"The paths of glory lea1 but TO the
grave"
"And freeze the genial currents OF the
SOUL"
"Ful many a flower is born 10 blush
unseen and waste its fragrance on the
desert AIR."
"Some mute, inglorious Milton, some
Hampden guilty OF his country's blood. "
Hands that the rod OF empire might
have swayed."
"The applause OF listening senates to
command"
"The noiseless tenor OF their way"
"Far from the madding crowds ignoble
STRIFE"
"Even in our ashes live their wonted
fires"
"A youth TO fortune and 10 fame un-
known"
"To wade through slaughter 10 a
throne"
An old Scottish woman wished TO sell
hen 10 neighbor.
"Please tell me-" the neighbor said,
"iS she atogither guld bird ? Has she
nae faults, nae faults at all ?"
'"Aweel, Margot," the other old wo-
man admitted, "she has got one fault.
She will lay on the Lords day."

The New Army Rifle.

When war was declared and il became
certain that the national army was TO be
greatly increased in numbers, The ord
nance experts OF the army realized that
il was impossible for the srsenals al
Springfield and Frankford TO supply a
sufficient number OF Springfield niles 10
equip the new forces. Fortunately,
American manufacturers have been turn
ing out thousands OF EnfieIds, Nagants
and Lebels. the rifles with which the
British, the Russian and The French troops,
respectively, are armed. That source OF
supply was Immediately available 10 the
United States and because the largest
number OF factories are equipped 10
manufacture the Enfield, that arm has
been chosen as the emergency rifle Of
our troops But since we can easily
make plenty Of small-ams ammunition,
and since il is necessary 10 limit the rifle
cartridges 10 one form and csIiber, il has
been decided 10 chamber the Enfield for
the Springfield cartridge. According to
Arms and the Man. IT will soon be pos
sible 10 manufacture between six thou
sand and ten thousand Of the rifles day.
Modifying the Enfield TO take the United
States cartridge has necessitated increas-
ing the diameter OF the barrel, TO resist
the increased pressure OF the American
over the British cartridge. The govern
ment has also thought il wise, for in
creased safety, 10 make all The paris Of
the Enfield that are subjected 10 firing
shock or pressure Of nickel steel, instead
OF ordinary carbon steel. such as was
used in the Springfield model 1903. The
British army now uses two patterns OF
the Enfield rifle. Our War Department
has chosen the pattern known as mod eI
1914. This is somewhat heavier and
longer rifle than the Springfield. for il
weighs nine pounds and i've ounces,
and the barrel is tweniy-six inches long,
whereas the Springfield weighs eight
pounds and twelve ounces and has a
barrel tweuty-four inches long.

Lucid Testimony

"And after the choking" prompted
the lawyer, who represented the plaintiff
in recent trial for assault.
"Oh, there wasn't any choking that |

"No choking? But didn't you tell the
officer that the accused sprang upon lis
victim from behind and seized him by the
throat?"
eyes, sir, surely. But there wasn't
any choking. He just squeezed him till
he couldn't breathe"
"Well, wasn't that choking, I'd like TO
know ?"
"When body chokes, he coughs till
ne spits it out" explained the witness,
"but the old man didn't have anything in
his mouth, and he didn't cough, so he
didn't choke, He was squeezed till the
life was most squoze out OF him, that's
all. ;"
II the court was not enlightened by such
finely Disseminated point, neither was
the truth beclouded. But Mr. William J.
Burns, the famous detective, declares
that it is nearly impossible for the aver
age person 10 give simple, lucid informa-
ton 10 lawyer or detective. He gives
as an example the office coy who was
asked, Ibid Mr.. Jones or his partner US
"a fret

and stammering with excitement, "Mr.
Jones at first was always last. but later
he began TO get earlier, till at last he was
first, although before he had always been
behind. He soon got later again, al
though Of late he has been sooner, and at
last he got behind as before. But guess
he'll be getting earlier sooner or later"

have sought my God and have found Him
Where the waves OF His ocean beat:
have knelt in the silent forest
In the shade of some ancienttree
But the dearest OF all my altars
Was raised at my mothers knee.

have heard him speak when the breakers
Were booming long and loud;
Where the winds play soft in the treetops,
Ny Father has talked 10 me;
But never heard Him clearer
Than did at my mother S knee.
The things OF my life that are worthy
Were born in my mothers breast,
And breathed into mine by the magic
OF the love that her life expressed.
The years that have brought me TO manhood
Have taken her far from me:
But memory keeps me from straying
Too far from my mothers knee.
God, make me the man OF her vision.
And purge me OF selfshneSs
God, keep ME true TO her standards
And help me TO live TO bless!
God hallow the holy impressions
Ofthe days that used to be.
And keep me pilgrim forever

Acne.

Acne is one Of the most common OF skin
diseases, and one OF the most trying, be-
cause in its most frequent form its chosen
point OF attack is the face OF the young oi
both sexes, at just that time OF life when
they should look their best, and when
they suffer most acutelY from looking
their worst.
A case OF simple acae is not hard for
anyone TO diagnose. Succeeding crops OF
pimples on the forehead, on the chin,
and sometimes covering both cheeks, or
reaching down the shoulders and the back,
among which blackheads are plentifully
mingled-that is acne simplex, and suf-
fering enough if causes. With il is also
likely TO be associated an unsightly oiIi-
ness oftexture and an enlargement of the
pores OF the skin, both OF which either
improve or entirely disappear when the
acne is cured.
Time will cure most cases OF acne, but
il is natural that youth is unwilling to
wait. and many things can be done TO
hasten The cure. The relief OF acne is
largely matter OF perfect hygiene. II
may therefore be regarded as an oppor-
tunity for its victim TO begin 10 put in
practice all those rules that will prove OF
benefit through The remainder OF life. A
well-regulated diet in which candy, cakes
and rich desserts are conspicuous by their
absence and thorough washing with clean
water and good soap help greatly in
curbing the disease. Well aired bed
rooms and proper breathing habits are
two other toes Of acne.
The local treatment OF the disease,
whether asiringent or emollient, or both,
must be adapted to each individual case,
as it always includes some aniisepiic ap-
plication, the strength and nature oi
which the physician in charge must de-
termine.

Killed by Poisons

All scientists agree that poisonous
products in the blood are eliminated by
the kidneys. The kidneys act as kind
Of filter for these products. When the
kidneys are changed or degenerated, by
disease or old age, then these poisons are
retained in the body. If we wish to pre-
vent old age coming on too soon, or if we
want to increase our chances for long
life. DR.. Pierce OF the Invalids' Hotel,
Buffalo, n. Y, says that you should drink
plenty of water daily between meals and
with your meals to flush the kidneys. Then
procure at your nearest drug store Anuric.
This Anuric drives the uric acid out.
II we wish to keep our kidneys in the
best condition q diet of milk and vege-
tables, with only little meat once a day,
is the most suitable. Drink plenty of pure
