 RETURN TO POWER
Evangelist Dana Says Prophec, Reveals Porttff Win Resume His
 Ancient Authority.

That the Pope Of Rome will be re- stored to his supremacy was declared by Evangelist F. M. Dana at the Gospel Tent last evening MT. Dana called attention to the rapid increas SC of power and influence of the Catholic church in America. As predicted in Revelation 1S, the deadly wound of the beast will be healed and an i'm age to the beast" will be made, he said.
 According to this prophecy the time is coming when the original practice of rapacy will be reproduced, hs claimed. There is on foot in the land a movement for the ecclesiastical power to dominate the civil power, twas his allegation. I've should as citizens seek to do all in our power to keep the church and state forever sep Arate, that religious intolerance and bigotry do not replace religious ih erty," he said.
 It was announced that the next service at the Tent would be tonor- row evening. The subject will be "Ts Protestantisna Consistent"

CFrom the Goodyear Tire News.l

CF'rom the Goodyear Tire News.(
One morning two new tires emerged
from a factory in Akron, Ohio. Rub

Soon the station was reached and
they knew they must part. 1t was q

its load. Eager hands grabbed the
worn castings and threw them into the

LUBRICATiNG TROUBLE

When a light gray smoke issues
from the exhaust in winter, it may be
taken as an indication that the oil
level is high and the fabrication con-
sequently excessive. This may be due
to the fact that water or gasoline has
leaked into the case and become mixed
with the oil If pump fabrication is
employed, water getting in her ana
settling to the bottom may freeze ana
cause the oil pump gears to shear off,
or some part of the pump driving sys
TEN may be twisted off when the en-
CINE is turned over. Again water col

stop the flow of oil to the bearings.

VALVE CLEARANCES.

After the valves have been ground

ances should be allowed in adjusting
the tappets, for the simple reason that
the surfaces of the valve and its seat

surface will be pounded smooth, the
valve will lower and the clearance Will

GETTING THE OIL

Motorists who buy oil by the barrel
often experience difficulty in getting
the comparatively thick flow from the
small hole of the barrel, particularly
in cold weather. An ingenious way to
obviate this difficulty is to bore a hole
in the head of the barrel to take the
valve from an old bicycle tire from
which the base has been removed. The
valve has flat sides. but two small
wooden plugs will stop the leakage,
aCd the barrel may now be pumped up
with enough pressure to insure flow
of the oil, an ordinary hand bicycle
pump being used

CHILDREN MORE DESIRABLE
THAN SOME GROWN PEOPLE

Do the residents Of the Sunshine
City want winter visitors who have
children? You say, of course they
do, but when you stop to think about
it you may change your mind. For
there are few houses in st. Peters
burg that can be rented by familis
with children. One real estate man
said to the Rambler:
"The people here do not seem to
care for children. Last season | had
occasion to hunt for house that
could be rented furnished by fam
lily with children. A man came to me
and made an appeal to me to help
him get a house for his family. !
had never seen him before but he
was Shriner and SO am I and he
saw my pin and appealed to me for
that reason | tell you it took me a
week to find any kind Of house to
which that man could take his fam
| lily"
The Rambler has heard this COM
plant before and he thinks it is not
SO bad a condition as some persons
imagine. There are many houses
here that can be rented by families
with children. The Rambler remem-
bers that John P. Lynch last winter
had a special list of houses that we're
for rent to families with children.
Flats cannot be secured but houses
can be had though the number is not
large. The Rambler remembers that
one man, several years since, was
unable to rent house because he
had boy who was obviously lively. |
The man went to place after place
and failed to rent, the owners refus-
ing to lease the house to man with
childrn In desperation this newcom-
er bought a home here. He said he
wanted to stay here and he din not
want to kill his son and he had to
have a home so he bought one when
ne was unable to rent one.
