Startling episodes succeeded each
other with the passing of the hours
of that day. Each seemed tremen-
dous to me-, so emotional, so hysteri-

before Mother and me in the dark
ened parlor where we greeted him.
All the magnificent strength of the
man, the spirit which made him a
typical adventurer. was restrained
and confined and seemed to make his
great body tremble as 1t did his voice.

Mother replied.

came back to us and laid a tender
hand upon Tiny's arm and led him

Then he passed through the arch
way, and 1 knew that he was glad,
as l was, hat he had made it up"
with his little girl, and that she was
happy, to the very end, in the idea
that his love for her would last for
ever.
1T was the only good she ever
snatched from life. And it didn't
come to her until the day before she
died." 1 said to Mother while we
waited for Tiny to make his silent
prayer above the dead.
1 had still a great deal to say to
him. 1 had not told him that the
pearls had disappeared. But his face
was so stern when he came back to
us that it was impossible for me to
speak of the silly jewels.

men are highly versed In machine tool

dealers. Hard work and confidence does
more to bring happiness and prosperity
than any other human efforts" said A.
G. Southworth. manager of the New York
branch Buick Motor Company.
There has never been a moments
doubt in our minds that peace would
bring greater demand for good auto
mobiles than ever Our business for
January has Justified our views, for we
took more orders and delivered more
Buick cars than ever before in January.
I'VE are exhibiting five brand new
1919 models in Madison Squire Garden
and II Is foregone conclusion that the
show sales will be greater this year than
ever before for two very good reasons.
The show is being held just at the be-
ginning of the season and the public has
been suffering automobile starvation for
almost n year.
I'VE are proud of the great automobile
industrys part in the world war. This.
the third largest industry, was ready
and 1t made no difference whether a
plant made cotter pins or Liberty mo-
tors or tanks, every one pulled together

the weight and size Of motor cars. and
gave as reason for their opinion the
comparative usefulness of light and
heavy cars on the battlefields.
1t Is to be expected that the Franklin
Automobile Company, which has for six
teen years been an exponent of light
weight In motor car construction. would
have some very interesting observations
To make on this subject. and Ralph Muir
ply. chief engineer OF that concern. sums
UP It's attitude In a few paragraphs:
THE heavier an object the more power
required to move 1t. states Mr.. Murphy.
"and In automobile operation this OF
course means gasoline consumption. On
tires too. excessive weight quickly shows
in lower tire mileage because of the
many heavy blows that must be cush-
Toned.
"Another important feature OF light
weight construction ~ the decreased de-
probation. On rough and rutted roads
tho lightweight car eases itself along,
taking each bump as It comes with the
very minimum OF vibration and strain
