der entry, carried off the honors. With

volved in the construction OF the Peer
ess motor. Add to this feature a bal
anced chassis and body. light in weight
but strong in texture, and perfection is
closely approached.
The loafng range is obviously for
ordinary driving; the sporting range for
nigh speed and poNt.
The mechanical construction which
makes this two range feature possible
involves the design OF the whole car, as
y affects the ratio of motor power to
car weight and the balance of the chas-
sis. The special carburetor contains
wo sets of Jets. The one set Is suf-
fcent for the needs of the car when a
speed on level roadway of less than
'orty-sve miles an hour is maintained.
This Is the loafing range.
The second set opens automatically
when the car advances beyond forty-five
miles an hour insuring maximum speed
and power. This is the sporting range.
The loafng range might be referred
- as the utility range also. 1t is posi-
hle to regulate the control to afford the
.reatest economy in fuel consumption
and at the same time provide smooth
action and permit motor speed OF

"Not." Beatrice said, "your Aunt

Being that Aunt Drusilla is the

Beatrice's soft eyes filed with tears.
"But Billy" she protested, 1--WE just
can't have her. We've been so bliss
full alone. Your father has always
held up this sister of his as a para
gon h~ousekeeper. You know how very
particular your mother says she was

of course, and will criticize me, and

piled.
Beatrice stiffened defiantly.
swell, she won't stay a month
here" she said.
"Aunt Drusilla writes" Billy sug-
gested, that she is longing to meet
her new niece. She hasn't seen me
since I was almost a kid. She was
going to be married then, I remember,
but something broke it off,"
"Her own exacting disposition prob
ably" Beatrice spitefully remarked.
"That's not quite fair Of you," Billy
defended. His wife smiled.
"You see," she said, "she's begin
ming to make trouble between us al
ready"
Trouble indeed seemed to fall to
Billy's lot. Mentally he blamed the
aunt who insisted upon thrusting her
presence where the presence of two,
was all sufficient. And upon the day
of Aunt Drusilla's arrival Beatrice
fell Ill.
In vain Billy telephoned various
women helpers. The helpers were
busy. As a last resort, and though
his pocketbook could Ill afford 1t, Billy
sought a nurses agency. No nurse
could be promised within three days
at least. And though the malady from
which Beatrice suffered was not
necessarily serious, the doctor assured
him that she must have immediate
care.
Billy himself prepared his wife's
breakfast coffee before he went to
