There is more catarrh IN this sec

diseases pu. together, and for years
it was supposed to be incurable.
Doctors prescribed local remedies.
and by constantly failing to cure by
local treatment, pronounced it in

greatly influenced by constitutional
conditions, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca

coming out in increasing numbers.
The success OF the British tank
as a war engine spurred the IN
ventors along the lines OF caterpil-
lar tractors; dozen patents on
caterpillars were recorded recently
in single issue OF the Official Ga
zette. Just now the re-enforced con
crete ship is coming to the fore as
subject on which inventors may
exercise their ingenuity. And, for
ever and always, the designer and
original OF new kinds OF airplanes
keeps up his futile efforts.
Many New Airplanes.
The patent office is granting an
average OF one new airpianc pat
ent week. One daring inventor
in this field has combined the end
less chair track of the caterpillar
with the airplane to provide mo-
tive power which he asserts is far
superior to the ordinary propeller;
he mounts fans on the endless
chain, which runs on tracks that
carry it around the long way OF an
open cylinder, first inside, then out
SIDE
The tempting project OF building
an airplane with propellers SO ar
ranged as TO give it a vertical lit
and permit ii to hover suspended
at any height still lures inventors
on. The latest in this class halls
from Dayton, the home OF the
Wrights; his device has not been
adopted by the aircraft production
board.
The combination OF dirigible and
airplane is another always fertile
field now under intensive cultiva-
ton. One of the prcttiest pictures
Of this class of inventions decorateS
the patent obtained by a Rhode Is
land man who would have his fly
ing machine look like bird, even
to the beak and the flapping OF the
wings.
Nor is the poor airman whose
machine is shot out from under him
overlooked by the tender hearted
inventor. Numerous designs OF
parachutes. intended either to be
worn by the aviator or placed close
at hand where he can grab them at
an instant's notice, have recently
been patented. Perhaps the most
ingenius OF these consists of pair
of wings operated by levers actual
ed by the users feet, the invention
OF Georgia man.
1t isn't the war inventor alone who
is causing the commissioner OF pat
entS to work nights and his aSsis-
tant'S hair to turn gray; its the or
dinary, common or garden inventor
whose imagination, stimulated by
the electric thrill OF a world war,
is doing double duty and grinding
out an ever increasing volume OF in
ventions along old, familiar, peace
able lines.
The list runs all the way-alpha-
betically-from advertising devices
to yarn winders the weekly Ga
zette. with its 900 or so new patents
every issue, still deals mainly in such
matters as bed springs, cigarette
machines, drain pipes, egg graders
electric motors, fish hooks, glove
buttoners, hog troughs, insect eX-
terminators, knitting machines loco
motive whistles, milking machines,
nut locks, oiling devices, ploughs,
rail joints, shade rollers, tires, un-
derwear, yentilators and wire wheels,
with the occasional xylophone, the
intermittent zootrope and the in
frequent quill extrator thrown in
to completed the alphabetical Sc
quence.

war Inventions hept. oeSfet.
There is no way OF telling how
many such inventions have come in
to the possession OF the government,
subject. OF course. to suitable com
pensation to the inventors. through
this channel. but there is reason to
believe that the number Is large.
Patents will be duly issued after the
war. and in the meantime the gov
ernment will surround these inven-
tions with all possible secrecy.
Perhaps it IS because most OF the
applications for patents on guns.
rifles and firearms generally have
been held up in this fashion. or
perhaps 1t is because inventors as
a class think the government IS al
ready supplied with all its require
ments in this respect; at any rate.
for some reason the proportion Of
firearms patents granted IN the
last year is surprisingly small. On
the other hand, patents on aircraft.
on submarines and means of pro-
lection against them. and on hun
dreds of other classes OF devices are

that when the wheel makes a COM
plete revolution without slipping the
car has moved a maximum distance,
all of the power developed has been
used in moving the car forward and
the gasoline consumed has been ex
pended to the best possible advantage.
To prove the economy of nonskids,
Joe Dawson, holder of the worlds "a
hour record. made test by using both
nonslSid and ribbed tread tires under
Identical conditions and comparing re-
suits. In preparing for the big race In
which he covered 1898 miles last An-
gust, provision had to be made against
q slippery track and other unfavorabIe
conditions. The tires had to be proof
against skidding and the tread SO
made that the car could be stopped
quickly without sliding. Dawson also
was seeking the tire that would de-
velop the greatest speed.
In the test run of 100 miles regular
racing tires with three thick ribs
around the circumference of the tire
were used first Then Royal Cords,
whichs have nonskid treads, were used
for the same distance. The timing
showed that the car maintained a
greater speed with the nonskid tires
than with the ribbed-treaa tires.
After breaking the 24-hour record on
Royal Cords, Dawson became so en-
thusiastic over them that he equipped
his stunt car with them and broke in

The champion never tried for an inter-
city record that he did not get. some
of the trips were made over wet roads
hut the nonskid Royal Cords held his
car true on the turns and over the
slippery surIk ccs. delivering the max
ir,tim of power from the motor to the
roads.
Tests of this, kind are of real value
to the automobile owner when they
are made by drivers OF recognized skill
such as Dawson. They go far to con-
vince the tire buyer that he can have
nonskid protection in both front and
rear with a minimum of gasoline coiA-
sumption. Many drivers prefer the
plain tread for the front wheels on the
theory that they make steering easier.

HUNDREDS DRIVE
VELIE CARS HOME

With the first approach of spring
and the opening of highways long
closed by snow and ice, dealers and
buyers alike have descended on the
velie factory and literally driven away
cars by the hundreds.
Shortage of railroad equipment was
originally responsible for these great
drivaways. but lately q factor of travel
and adventure has entered into the
scheme and buyers eagerly grasp the
opnortunitv to visit the Velie factory,
see how velie cars are built and tour
home in their own way, incidentally
saving freight charges.

NONSK|D TIRES ARE
FAVORED BY DAWSON
Test of Cord and Nobby
Tread Resulted in Victory
for Latter

Few automobile owners. in these
days when everybody is doing his bit
to eliminate waste, realize the saving
in gasoline by the use of nonskid tires.
Engineers agree without exception
that the nonskid tire delivers the max
imum of power developed by the motor
because of it's firm grip on the road.
While the nonsxid tire has always
been considered an essential in win
ter. it is coming more and more into
all-year-round use. The inherent char
acteristic of the nonskid tire is its
ability to grip the ground and pre-
vent slipping. 1t is plain to be seen
