SIMILAR Tires
FOR FRONT and
rear WHEELS
Considerable Discussion Re-
Gently Over Selection of Cas-
ings Ends in Recommended
ton by MicheIin Tire Co,

Considerable discussion has grown
up recently about the selection Of tires
with the proper tread for use on front
and rear wheels.
Many tire companies recommend the
use Of non skid tires on rear wheels
only and urge the use Of so-called
driving" tires on front wheels. These
driving tires have either plain or
ribbed treads, and are recommended
TOR front wheel use because they steer
easier than do non-skid with small or
sharp projections
The Michelin Tire company on the
other hand. recommends one type of
tire for all four wheels. This tire Is
tho Michelin Universal, which has a
tread SO broad and fiat that It not
only embodies the advantage of a
non-skid tire but also steers and drives
Just as well as a smooth tread cas-.
ing. By the use Of this one type on
all four wheels the motorist enjoys tho
advantage of being able to rotate his
tires that is to say move up to the
front wheels tires that are partly worn
fitting new tires on rear wheels where
the service is most severe. If the
tires used are Of the Michelin type the
motorist need carry only one spare
instead Of two types of spare tires, and
having non-skids on front as we'll as
rear he is protected against the dan
eerous front skid as we'll as againss
the more frequent though generally
less serious rear skid.

OWN A GUARUMO TREE;
LAUGH AT PROHIBITION
Remarkable Member of Arboreal Family Makes Wine While
You Watt in Fact, in Tropics Nature Tends Bar and No
Legislature Can Amend the Laws of Nature.

Acosta Rican, agitated by the in
toxicant of a bright idea, came to
the Herald office the other day and
almost shouted:
"Guarumo trees! Guarumo trees !!
You must plant some in Central
Park"
Pressed for the reason why Guaru-
mo trees should be planted in Cen
trail Park he exclaimed:
"The Guarumo tree grows in my
country and elsewhere in Central
America, | am told. l have seen it
with my own eyes. You take an ak
and cut out hollow in the tree. Then
in the hollow you put water, just
plain water. Then you cover the hol-
low with piece of the bark, says
the New York Herald. That is all.
Next day you return with cup. The
water has turned to the finest drink
yes, alcoholic. Leave it two days
and it is as strong as port wine; one
day as strong as beer. The farmers
drink it a lot Prohibition! Plant the
Guarumo trees in Central Park!
The details of this wonderful story
were repeated to H. ]. Spinden, as
sistant curator of the American Mu-
scum of National History, which is
university of research for the most
unheard of things in the world. Mr..
Spinden has never heard of Guarumo,
but he did not doubt it. He knew
that the sap of certain palm trees
in Africa and Latin-America would
produce an alcoholic drink without
any treatment at all.
Prohibition has aroused a deep IN
terest in all varieties of the things to
be prohibited. To the drinker who is
about to go dry the idea of Congo
native of a Central American shep-
herd obtaining a palatable drink with
a Ratchet and a tin cup is interesting,
though tartalizing.
Mr.. Spinden, for the benefit or tan
talization of Herald readers, has dug
down deep into the records of the
museum and produced wealth OF
information about strange drinks OF
strange lands, in most cases showing
how easily liquors may be obtained

in the tropics. Drinks are made out
of cactus, drugs like canibus indica,
and even out of tobacco. Only the
most uncivilized of races do not pro
duce some drink with a "kick," he
points out, which some readers may
opine will place the American after
July l on a par with the African or
Australian men-apes.
When the nationwide prohibition
against Intoxicating liquors goes IN
to effect there will be one striking
exception to its complete enforce
ment-the exception for religious
uses. Sacramento wines will not be
taboo. This brings home to use the
fact that among many primitive peo~
pies of the world intoxicating liquors
had their very origin and principal
use in religious rites rather than con-
vivialty.
Beer Drunk in Egypt.
Shamans, as the primitive priests
are called, were always seeking
strong stimulants and intoXicants
that they might send their souls
forth to question the infinite. EXclta-
ton, however, induced, that could
lift them out of the known earth and
up to the gates of great mysteries
was a thing to be desired above ali
things. We know that wine and
something like beer were anciently
used in Egypt. The religious use of
intoxicants was not a controlling fac
tor among either the Egyptians or
the Greeks, but among the latter, at
least, was considerably used to pro-
duce frenzy.
There are large areas of the world
where Intoxicating drinks were not
made by the aborigines, but these
were always areas of low culture and
uninteresting arts. The largest dry"
area was Australia whose natives
were, as whole, the lowest and
most british specimens of the hu-
man race. They were occasionally
lifted out of their drab state by a
stimulating tea called pituri, which
was not alcoholic, but which did
cause a nervous reaction. lntoXlcat-
ing drinks were unknown among the
Indians of the United States and
Canada, but another stimulant and

narcotic was much used, namely, to-
bacco. In Mexico, Central America
and parts of South America, where
civilization of great economic value
to the world were developed, there
, was likewise a great use of stlmu-
lants to the imagination.
The same holds true of parts OF
the Old World that were cradles OF
the useful and beautiful arts. Per
haps this association of the worth
while products of hand and mind
with the physic experiences of the
pipe and bowl is purely accidental
perhaps not.
The origin of wine, the fermented
juice of the grape, is lost in antlqul-
ty. By the Greeks its invention IS
ascribed the bods. Dionysius or Bacc-
chus was worshipped in orgiastlc
ceremonies out of which grew the
drama in the double form of tragedy
and comedy. Beer, made from &C.
reals of various kinds and often fla
vored with other bitter herbs than
the comparatively modern hops, IS
of ancient put plebian ancestry. 1t
was made in Egypt and is still man
ufactured in Abyssinia, where it IS
called bousa.
In southern Africa the Katfirs
make a beer from millet seed. The
Romans under Caesar found the
Britons brewing ale. In fact, through
out Europe and Asia Intoxicating no
uors have long been made from ce-
reals, such as wheat, barley and rice,
and used especially at weddings,
wakes and other occasions of cere-
mony or enjoyment. Distilled liquors
or spirits are of comparatively mod
ern invention.
One type of fermented liquor
whose use encircles the globe is palm
wine. This is made from the sap of
various palms, especially those with
starchy deposits in the trunk and
sugary sap in the flower stocks. The
sage palms of southern Asia nearly
all furnish fermentable juices. Espe-
cially famous is the Caryota urens,
or toddy palm. Arrack, the strong
drink of the East, is distilled from
toddy mixed with cane juice and 9TH
err sweets. The Arenga saccharifera
of Malaysia is palm that gives a
palm wine. In both these cases the
sweet sap drawn from the Towering
stem ferments of its own accord. An
other Asiatic palm that gives wine
is the Borassus fiabelliformis, or Pal
myra palm.
In the Congo valley of Africa palm
wine is commonly called malafu.
Here the greatest use is made of ra-
phia palms, especially the raphia vini-
fera. and of the African oil palm
Elaeis guineesis.
