EXPERTS TEST $4,000 CARS
1907 Per Cent of Wheels Had Loose
Spokes

Of the $4,000 cars examined and
tested by agents of the Wopdtite
Laboratories, makers of Spoketite,
nearly 80 per cent-78.07, to be ex-
act-showed loose spokes.
The investigation was nationwide
and conducted with strict imparti-
ality, particular care being observed
of any one make or type of car.
The Woodtite people, it seems,
were actuated solely by a real need
for statistical data on wood shrink
age under steady use, the better to
meet the fastgrowing demand for
their product. By these elaborate
testd they have been enabled to
plan with close exactitude the big
extensions of their factories this
year.
The month of April was chosen
as best suited for making the tests,
it being a season when temperatures
are less extreme than at any other
time of the year. Fourteen states
with twenty-seven centers were used
in the campaign and the whole 49,
900 instances were distributed as
equally as circumstances permitted.
The results are an interesting COM
mentary on the manifestations of
wood shrinkage under normal condi-
tions. At the same time, however,
it is no reflection upon wood de-
sirability or the quality of workman
ship in the auto wheel industry.
Wooden wheels have their abandon
ment is a most remote probability.
The chief lesson for constellation
from these tests is that wood will
eventually show shrinkage with time
and usage, no matter how thorough
it's seasoning or how perfect the
workmanship, but care and prompt
treatment at the first sign of shrink
age makes it a most satisfactory
material. The moral of the whole
thing is, tighten our spokes prompt
ly and keep them so, for economy
as we'll as safety.

Room 1923 369 Pine ST. San Francisco,
Circular No. June 9th 1919,
ALL ENROLLING AGENTS.:
AS you are undoubtedly aware
from press items which we have had
in all newspapers throughout the
State, this Service is in immediate
need of 500 recruits to train for the
manning of the large number of ships
now being turned out by the Pacific
Coast shipyards. The demand for
these young American seamen is
greater at present than the number
of trained apprentices available and
you can readily realize that we are
having a difficult time to keep the
ships moving on regular schedule;
which is very essential to the success
full operation of the ships, as the de-
lay of only one day in sailing time
on account of inability to secure
crews, means a tremendous amount
of money lost to the operators.
Therefore, we wish you would
make special effort Immediately, by
window display, through the local
press, and by any other method which
you think will get results, TO bring
before the young men in your rs
pective territories the wonderful op-
portunities offerad in the Ameriran
Merchant Marine-the high wages
now being paid seamen the Nayiga
tion and Engineering Schools of the
Shipping Board at the disposal of our
graduates after short period of sea
experience, with an officers license
as a reward for their ambition and
faithfulness to duty, etc., and also
chance of seeing the world, which
should appeal very strongly co them.
1t is entirely up to our enrolling
agents to see that this Service Sc
cures the needed recruits and we
trust that each and everyone of you
will send at least three or four re-
cruits to this Station for training in
the next week or ten days. We will
be very glad to assist you in this
work, and also receive suggestions,
if you will please communicate with
us.

REMARKABLE TEST OF LOVE
Surely Any Woman Would Be Salts
fled With Proof That Was Of
fered Mrs. Newlywed.

For a while, as they walked along,
neither spoke. The silence became
quite strained. At last she said in q
hard, tense voice:
''You don't care whether I'm happy
or not, do you? We've been married
nearly a week and now you don't
care whether I'm happy or not"
"My angel, I do" he said miserably.
"But simply cannot permit you to do
that. 1t is asking too much"
Two tears rolled down her cheeks
one for each cheek.
"You don't! You don't!" she cried,
biting her lip tearfully. "You don't
care whether I'm happy or notl"
1t was more than his tender, loving
heart could stand. He gulped guiltily.
"Oh, very well, go ahead if you like"
he said gruffiy.
And while she took out her powder
puff and powdered her nose and vi
cinity right on the crowded pavement,
he turned his back and looked into the
show windows of piano shop so no
one would know he was with her.

A vast amount of money still lies

London Mail. In a Yorkshire village
there is q fisherman who is known to
have five thousand dollars in notes In
his thirty-dollar-a-year cottage. He
wears clothes which cost about ten
dollars before the war, and owns a
fishing boat worth one thousand or fif-
teen hundred dollars. In the same viii
lage a short time ago a fisherman
bought his cottage, and when the own
er called for a deposit he counted out
fifteen hundred dollars in gold, the full
purchase price. In neighboring town
there is at least one fisherman who
has five thousand dollars or more in

When he has been urged to do so he
has said that he preferred to have it
near him as it is safer!" A woman in
a Yorkshire country town one morning
walked into lawyers Office and pro-
sand half-sovereigns which she had
collected in thirty years. After asking
advice on investing the money she
stated that at night she took the hand
bag up to her bedroom. When she
Travelled she took the handbag with
her, and ON one occasion left it on the
rack in the train. She remembered her
treasure before she left the station
and recovered it.

SAGE TEA DARKENS
HAIR TO ANY SHADE
Don't stay Grayl Here's an Old
time Recipe that Anybody
can Apply.


The use Of Sage and Sulphur for re
storing faded, gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's
time. She used 1t to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and attrac
tive. Whenever her hair took on that
dull, faded or streaked appearance.
this simple mixture was applied with
wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is nussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for bottle Of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound" you
will get this famous old preparation,
improved by the addition Of other In
gradients, which can be depended up
on to restore natural color and beauty
to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says 1t darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell 1t has
been applied. You simply dampen
sponge or soft brush with it and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at a time. By morning the
gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two. it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.-Adv.

BIG SANDY WOMAN SLEEPS
,S0UNDLY FOR THREE WEEKS
AiIment Follows Attack of Influenza
Patient Is Fed, but Eyes
Are Unopened

Big Sandy For more than three
weeks now Mrs. L. Stevenson of this
city has apparently been in a sleep
so sound that it has been impossible to
rouse her. 1t is presumed she is a
victim of the so-called sleeping sick
ness" of which four cases have been
reported in the United States recent
ly, all being patients who previously
had the influenza.
Mrs. Stevenson had the influenza
late last fall when the epidemic was
at its zenith, and seemed to recover
her usual health for a time.
A few weeks ago she seemed sud-
denly to start decline in health and
became strangely weak, and within
a few days was compelled to take
to her bed and has since been under
the care of physicians.
Nourishment is supplied the patient
at regular intervals and although it
seems impossible to get her to take
the normal amount of food prescribed
because of. the sleeping condition.
the patient is aroused in a measure,
and although never opening her eyes,
is fed by her attendants.

more.
Two sections of the law as to federal
aid projects govern construction. Sen
ator L. J. Walsh has been informed by
he national forestry service at Wash
ngton that the government is to spend
about $718,0O0 in road improvement
and construction within forest reserves
and Immediately outside, this year, the
counties and state hooking up with
these roads with an expenditure of
about $24S,00O. This work is done I'M
Ter section eight of the law, which
provides for administration of the
work by forestry service men. The
plans, however, are submitted for ap-
prevail to the state highway commission.
Senator Walsh, who has been max
ng inquiries of the department for
some time, is informed that among the
projects in which the department is
much interested is included the Swan
river project. Considerable difficulty
has been encountered by the forestry
service in obtaining cooperation with
the settlers, but hopes are entertained
that it may be. secured this year. How
ever, the forestry service has arranged
for the construction of the lake sec
ton of the project and the entire cost
will be provided from the federal
funds.
Senator Walsh asked about the Still
water project and the department
states that the matter will be taken
up with the district forester at Mis-
Soula and efforts made at once to
provide federal money for the project,
providing the balance necessary is
furnished by local people. The esti-
mated cost of this project is $479,261.-
Nearly one million dollars of road
