And J m, just ass enough to be- lieve that if I had met you long ago when we both were free I could have made you care, and also made you rotously happy. But there's no use bashine that over now. The Dicky- birds always had you hpynotized all ways will have. and I've always known just where I got off at with you, which is eX2 ctly nowhere.
 But, Lady Fair, he spoke the name which he had given me with such ten der S0lemnity that I was awed, you can't keep mo from watching out for you, doing my little bit to thwart the devils that have it in for you. I suppose there's a nut loose some where in my upper story, but flag and country come second to you with me. You're my flag, couptry and religion just now, and I'll fight for you till hell freezes over Good-by."
 He bent over me, took my face be- twen his hands and looked into my eyes for long moment Then his lips touched my hair, the merest shadow Of a caross, and the next mo- ment he was gone.
 And as the heavy street door swung to behind him I shivered as if the sound were the knelI of his pass ing.

Hot Air Furnaccs-Spectfic Rules.


 1. Provide coId-air drops from upper floors SO as to insure d return circulation from all rooms to the air intake of the furnace.
 ?. Regulate the window of the cold air box SO as to avoid too great a current of outside air. especially on very cold days.
 3. Always keep the water container in the air-i cket filled with clean water Moist air heats much more req dily than dry air, and is better for health, as well as more comforta ble.
 f. It is advisa bic to keep a jar of water near one of the frst-foor reg isters that send out the moist heat. Change the water frequently, pre- ferably every day.
 5 Hot-air pipes should have a good pitch upward from the furnace, and should be of sufficient diam eter They should also be wrapped with sheet asbestos. A separate pipe for each room with a turn dannper near the furnace is a. good rule. Each pipe should he labeled, so that cer- tain rooms can be shut off at the fur, mace when desired,
 G. Be sure the fre~box is gas tight All cracks must be thoroughly cemented or a new section put in be- fore the winter sets in. Otherwise coal-gas will escape into the air jacket and be carried LID. directly to the rooms.

CARE FOR STORAGE BATTERY
During Winter Season II Should Be
Kept Fully Charged to Stand
Low Temperature.

The storage battery should be kept
fully charged during the winter, ac-
cording to E. V. Collins, instructor in
steam and gas engineering in the agri-
cultural college.
1.-The charged battery" said Mr.. Col
Inns, Twill stand very low temperatures
while a discharged battery will freeze
at 20 degrees above zero. Freezing will
burst jars, and as a result the battery
must be rebuilt.
"In cold weather the starting battery
is especially likely to become dis
charged. The engine is difficult to
crank because the oil is cold. 1t must
also be cranked longer each time 1t Is
started because the gasoline does not
vaporize readily in cold weather. Long
trips are few and the charging periods
are shorter. The lights which are
needed earlier in the evening help in
discharging the battery.
'The battery should be tested with
a hydrometer at intervals of two
weeks or less. If it is found to be dis
charged, it should be charged as soon
as possible either by driving the car
or from an outside source.
"The conditions under which cars
operate vary, and there are so many
starting systems, thai NJ set rules can
be given for the care of the storage
battery. If the starter turns the en-
CINE with difficulty, the motor should
be cranked by hand when starting on
a cold morning. The engine may be
made to start more easily by printing
1t through the printing cups or by pull
ing the choker wten it is stopped. The
lights should be turned on only when
necessary and in many cases the dim
mers may be used to save the current"

Terrific Strain
PLACED ON Tires
Many People Who Buy Cars Are
Ignorant of This Subject.
ECONOMY TOPIC MOST VITAL
Adding Ono Mile for Each Tire to
Enormous Mileage Piled Up Each
by Great Number Of Cars,
Would Save Big Fortune.

When motor cars were rare, tire
mileage costs made little difference.
But now, when men are buying cars
as they would a suit of clothes or a
pair of shoes-when III annual car
bill Is more than $1,000, O00,0 600, and
for tire about 1898, OO0, OOO-tire econ
omy is a matter of great concern.
About 100000 cars are now regis
tered in this country, wearing 10000
900 tires. Adding only n mile for
each tire to the enormous mileage
piled up each day by these cars would
save a handsome fortune for the mo-
florists of the country.
Much Mileage Lost
A. e. Hertzig, manager of a big tire
and rubber concern, in commenting on
the various kinds of abuse innocently
inflicted upon motor tires, preventing
them from attaining their allotted three
score and ten, declares that much of
this mileage is lost through the fabric
breaks caused by hitting stones Inn
bedded in the road.
$50 many people are now buying
cars who know comparatively little
about cars or tires that 1t is not sur
prising hat merciless abuse is heaped
upon Them" he says. Hardly one
motorist in 100 appreciates the ter
rife strain placed on tires when trav-
cling at high speed over ordinary
roads. Your tires may withstand a
shock equal to ten tom weight while
running at a speed Of Is miles an
hour over country roads, and a little
later you have a blowout while run
ming ove a perfectly smooth street.
Cause Of Blowout.
'This is what happened. The ter
rife impact of the tire and the stone
imbedded in the road did not vislbly
| affect the exterior Of the tire. Had
you looked It yer you could not have
found a mark. But on the inside of
| the tire q break in the tire fabric was
started when the blow strained it be-
You'd its limit Of stretching strength,
Perhaps only one layer of fabric was
injured. The other layers soon fol-
lowed suit and the blowout resulted.
at is common practice for a own
ers to bump front wheels against the
curbstone when parking their cars, es-
peclally If the brakes do not hold
properly. Many drivers make no pre-
tense Of slowing up for street car
tracks or bridge approaches. There
Is much fraternizing with ruts and
stones in the road. All these make for
fabric breaks, which rob the tire OF
many miles that were built into II
at the factory.

TAKE ALL CORNERS SLOWLY
Autoist Should Round Turns Slowly
and With cautlon-cIutch Should
Be Released.

One reason for side slipping may
be found in the fact that some driy-
ers take corners at u fast rate of
speed. Allowing that the pavement
is slippery, the autolst should round
turns slowly and with caution. The
clutch should be released II there Is
a tendency for the car to slip.
When this takes place, very fire.
quently the rear tires will lose their
lateral grip on the road surface. No
florists should never steer a machine
sharply from a curb when the sur
face Is wet.
The reason for this Is simple, in
that the grip of the wheels on the
road is insufficient to overcome the
centrifugal effect, and the result is
the rear of the a is forced toward
the curbing. Sometimes a sudden
speeding up Of the motor will over
come the tendency to skid.

RUINoUs ABUSE OF BATTERY
Most Common Fault Is In Letting Il
Go Dry-Good Plan to Have
Generator Tested.

The most common and ruinous abuse
of the battery is to let 1t go dry. The
battery loses water even under normal
conditions, partly through slow evapo-
ration, but chiefly through decomposi-
and hydrogen, by excessive charging.
If your battery demands water filling
more frequently than 1t should, or II
the battery links heat to a temperature
warmer than that Of the hand, have
your generator inspected and tested
and the charging rate reduced.
