WASHING THE CAR
Can Now Be Done Easily and
Effectively

Car washing is still an unpleasant
experience with some motorists. They
dislike the use of soaps containing
alkali and other things that destroy
paint luster. They object to the great
waste of all soaps that do not dis
solve freely, resulting in rs per cent
remaining use ess at the bottom of
the pail. There are disclined to use
separate compounds for washing and
polishing. Least of all do they like
the idea. of working laboriously with
soaps that do not act quickly.
There is really no need for worry
or trouble on this score. The new
liquid auto wash, Kantnar, guar
antted. product of the Woodtite Lab
makes car washing simple,
easy and quite unobjectionable. Kant
mar is liquid preparation in highly
concentrated form. An astonishingly
small quantity instantly distributes it
self evenly and thoroughly in a buck
ct of understanding no soap ever
does, and it knocks stains, dirt and
grease like magic. AS the name i'm
plies, Kantmar is absolutely harmless
to the most delicate surfaces, be it
the finest varnish or your own
hands. Kantmar is at once the cheap
est and most effective auto wash
available today, and the Woodtite
people, as well as the public, are to
be congratulated on its discovery.

The statement is made that reports

The Lake of Menteith is one OF
Scotland's most beautiful bits of

marshes and shadowy slopes. with

A boat hired at the village port at the
head Of the lake reaches the island
quickly Here one forgets the beauty
of the surroundings as the guide tells
the story of the visit of Mary, hapiess
queen Of Scots
AS d tiny e-year-old maid she was
taken to the island TO escape an I'M
desirable sutton, and here for five
months she and her four Marys, her
playmates. lived in childlike happiness.
Queen Mary's bower a little. high
walled garden cared for by the five
children, stands just as she left 1t. Va
rous trees are pointed out as espe-
c,ally beloved by the little queen.
Some of the giant trees that shaded
the island so pleasantly were old when
Queen Mary and her maids of honor
played beneath their branches There
is the nuns walk arched by lofty chest
nuts and sturdy oaks.

TOXIC, Oct. (By The Associated
Press. s.)-Negotatlons arc under way
between the governments OF the
United States and Japan concerning
the administration of the Trans-Si
berian Railroad. This has been made
necessary, it is said in high diplomatic
quarters, because of the fact that in
ter-Allied control of the railway under
the practical supervision of John +.
Stevens. head of the American Rail
way Commission TO Russia, recently
has encountered many Obstacles
Following an official protest of sew
eral months ago by representatives. of
the Allies at Nladvostok against in
terfererce by General Semenof, the
anti Bolshcvik leader in Siberia,
there apparently have developed re-
Gently misunderstanding between the
American and Japanese authorities and
troops concerning the conception Of
what inter-Allied management means.
Engineers unHer Mr.. Stevens claim
that IN the sector patrolled by the
Japanese forces they have not re
ceived the protection and cooperation
which the original agreement provided
for.
It is asserted that the situation had
gone so far that the American govern
mcnt early in September sent formal
note to the japanese government, in
which it was pointed out that the
Japanese troops had failed to protect
the lives and property of the railroad
engineers and had failed to cooperate
with them in the broad spirit Of con-
ducting the railroad in the interest of
the Russian people. by permitting the
transportation Of food supplies which
were so necessary to the Russians.
The American note frankly pointed
out, it is said, that unless effective CO
operation could be arranged the United
States might feel obliged to withdraw
its troops from Siberia altogether; that
should a withdrawal be decided upon
the American government might feel
compelled to make public its reasons
for the withdrawal.
The note emphasized how unfor-
tunatc a withdrawal would be to the
interests of the people of Siberia, who
were dependent on the railroads for
the necessities of life 1t referred to
the new idea of international co0pera-
ton abroad in the world, as against
the old idea of the balance Of power,
and is said inferentially to have voiced
the fear that lack of cooperation by
Japan might lead to the impression
that Japan was supporting the old
ideas of self-intercst and aggrandize
ment, which it was confidently hoped
the world had abandoned.
1t is understood that the American
communication, which has not been
published here, caused something akin
