Improved Liuhtship Bell.

A new lightship also has a bell,
which is made to ring automatically
by means of a highly ingenious device
which utilizes the gas as it passes
from the tanks to the lantern, to actu-
ate the bell clapper. The light is not
interfered with in the slightest degree
by the operation of the bell-striking
device. It is only set in motion, how
ever n very foggy weather, when the
light cannot be distinguished at any
great distance.

HPrince CharIie"

Charles Edward, the grandson Of
James II of England, sometimes called
Bonnie Prince Charlie, was known as
the young pretender, son of James II.
At the time of the rising Of 1745 he
was at one time very near entering
London, but the fatality that hung
over the Stuarts overwhelmed him. He
retreated to Scotland, where he and
his army were utterly routed at Gull
loden. With him the direct line of the
Stuarts became extinct. He died Jan

UNITED STATES TIRES BIG
SELLERS ABROAD-AREP UR-
CHASED IN EVERY COUNTRY

American tires are keeping step in
popularity in foreign lands with
American automobiles. Last year the
United States Tire Company sent its
product to forty countries scattered
throughout the world. The removal
of shipping restrictions is expected to
result in adding twenty-five or thirty
countries to the list during the cur
rent year.
A few days ago an Iceland automo-
bile dealer paid a visit to the New
York office of the United State Tire
Company and ordered full tire equip
ment for fifty cars. He said that
this brand of tire was regarded as
the equality brand" in his country.
Turning to the southern hemisphere
it is noted that recent issue of "l1a
Navion," the leading newspaper OF
Santiago, Chilli, carried a half-page
article telling of the wonderful per-
Torrance of a Schipps-Booth car in
a test run of 1889 kilometers over
the mountain roads of that country.
At the conclusion of the run the
driver remarked, 81 must mention
that during the entire run from
Conception to Coquimbo-a distance
of about 1900 miles-we had only one
puncture. The tires were United
States Royal Cords and we thing 1t

American tire is being given in the
