a switch is shown in the illustration.
The Coil Box
The practice Is to carry the four
coils In coil box, which box has the
binding posts for the wires, SO that
the coils can be taken out or put in
without touching the wiring. II you
Will examine one. of your coils you
Will ind on the one side of it two
brass screws as A and B in Fig. 2.
and In the coil box two brass springs
IN each compartment, which springs
can press against the brass screws
mentioned above. When the coil is In
the box-one set of these springs are
connected to the buzz-bar which Is
set in the box, and to which the wire
from the switch Is connected, while
the other set Is connected to the bind
ing posts for the wires which must go
to the timer. Thus the current in
stead OF going from the buzz-bar to the
arms q, as shown in Fig. 1, will first
go to the springs mentioned and then
to the screw and through a wire hid
oen In the coil to the arm q. The cur
rent, after passing through the pri-
mary coil, will go to the other screw
then through the spring pressing
against this screw to the binding post
connected to il and then to the timer.
The secondary coil is connected to
the piece of brass at the bottom of
the coil. marked in Fig. 2. You will
see at the bottom of the coil box
piece OF carbon which will press
against this piece of brass when the
coil is in the box. This piece Of car
bon Is connected to the binding post
Tor the secondary wire which is to
go to the plug.
Timing and Wiring Of Four-Unit
System
The steps to take to time and wire
Four-Unit System are as follows:
l. By turning the engine over by
hand, determine the direction in which
the rotor rotates when the engine is
running.
2. Find the firing order.
3. Set the engine so that cylinder
number one (the cylinder nearest the
radiator), is at top dead center be-
tween the compression and power
stroke. How to do this was explained
in detail in the second lesson.
4. Connect the secondary wires in
numerical order to the spark plugs.
5. Connect up the battery One
wire will go to the ground the other
to the binding post for it on the coil
box.
s. Connect the primary wires which
connect the coils to the timer. to their
binding posts on the coil box.
Z. Retard the spark control lever
fully and then advance it about half
inch on it's segment.
8. Determine which end of the top
segment in the timer will be first hit
by the rotor, when it is revolving in
the direction of rotation, and with
a pencil. mark on the outside of the
timer the position Of the end of the
segment. Then put the timer in place
on the engine and transfer the mark
to the engine. Remove the timer.

we get the sparks In the cylinders one
after the other, the order in which
they come depending on the order in
which the wires are connected to the
coils.
In wiring four-unit system it is
the practice to connect the secondary
wires from the coils to the plugs in
numerical, or 1924 order, and to con-
meet the primary wires to the timer

Hiding a Kings Statue.

The 6ne equestrian statue Of King
Charles I. which was hidden in London
FOR PT0tectiOn during the war. has been
oroWgAt to light again. The statue.
which was cast during the reign of the
monarch, according to reports has not
enjoyed the uneventful career per-
mitted to most works of its kind. It
was executed for Sir Richard Weston
afterward earl of Portland, who in
tended to place 1t as an ornament In
his garden at Rochampton. But this
function it never fulfilled, for it was
seized by parliament during the Civil
war and sold to one John Rivett, q
brazier, to be broken up. John, how.
ever, being a royalist, hid the statue.
and, by selling hundreds of bronze
knife handles purportlng to be made
from it, disarmed any parliamentary
suspicious in the matter. On the res
toration of Charles II in 1860 Rlvett
produced the statue, which was
claimed by Sir Richards son. The
brazier refused to yield it, and after
years Of dispute 1t was eventually pre-
sented to King Charles II and erected
on the spot formerly covered by the
original Charing cross.

Antarctic "sheIf Ice"


From the work of recent expIora-
lions, Sir Douglas Mawson concludes
that the rock foundation on which the
Antarctic ice cap rests is very irregu-
lar, partly above sea level and partly
below, and that its thickness, which is
very variable, may reach maximum
Of several thousand feet. Under the
thickest portions the static pressure at
the base may be as great as one ton
per square inch. Under such a cover
Ing there may be considerable accu-
mutation Of ground heat, and 1t is as
sumed that the under portion Of the Ice
mass Is undoubtedly soft and plastic.
Where the sea breaks up the ice at
rate faster than the flow, the sea front
Is substantially the coast line. But
elsewhere, as In the Great Ross barrier
and the Shackleton shelf, the supply
Of ice exceeds the rate of erosion at
the sea front, and the overflow from
the land maintains a thick sheet Of
"shelf Ice" extending far out to sea.
The sea front Of the ice cap, at the
present rate Of advance or flowing out,
is estimated to have left the center in
the seventh century Of our era.

THE AUTOMOBILE

THE automobile is O rubber

feing used largely to keep
prosperous American citizens from
worrying over how to invest their
money.
There are great many varieties
Of cash separators, but the auto
mobile is by far the best. II can go
through an ordinarily flush citizen
In q very few months and leave
very little cash in the tailings. In
fact, its work is approached in
thoroughness only by the private
yacht. the society bug and the
private school for girls.
The automobile is driven by gas
.oline. assisted by water, oil, electric
'tty, wind and gas, and sometimes
horses and mules. Some drivers
have also used brains with great
success. but the supply is too lin

When Piano Mas New.

The first public performance on a
piano was at COvent Garden, London,
152 years ago. The invention of the In
strument is credited to Cristofalli, an
Italian; J. c. Schroter, a German, and
Marius, Frenchman. The first crude
pianofortes were made early in the
eighteenth century, but for many years
they received no serious consideration
from musicians. Johannes lump, a
German, established the first piano fac
tory in England, and it was he who
built the instrument that was used in
