Sure l think it is a pity
That l do not know her name.
oh! she wears a nice warm sweater,
And it surely fits her better
Than an envelop it's letter,
When you play the sweetheart game.
And she wears Tam O'Shanter
At tilt that seems to banter
All the rougish lads that saunter
Up the sunny Salmon street.
For her steps so light and airy,
That you think little fairy
| Has escaped her watchers wary
And come out the world to greet.
Her hearts little No Mans Land,
No one it's gold has ever PANIED
Though many times it has been plan
ned,
To find it's treasured worth
One day some lad with shining eyes
Will find the pathway to this prize,
And take the road to Paradise
Like all the sons of earth.
Now this little lady charming
Has a smile that's most disarming
And pout that's quite alarming
When she casts a look my way.

For I've known it for a longtime,
That I'm getting old and fat ant

So I'll smoke my pipe of Peerles

But I'll sing song as fearless
AS | sung in days of old.

decision of other competitive
plants, but a few of the more
radical employees desire to tie
up the wheels of industry in
this city along with other plants
which are out in the Wisconsin
Michigan-M innesota districts.
In the present case there has
been no grievance, SO we are in.
formed, as to the rate of wages,
but the demand has been for.
the shorter day, which the com.
pany is willing TO grant when
competitors do likewise, and
therefore many men feel they
can accomplish just as much at
work as when rem aiming idle.
So far the strike has been
conducted in the most orderly
manner and the men have re.
NAMED peaceful and quiet, but
during the past day there has
been some talk Of threats of
violence against men who desire
to return to work. This attitude
would be resente d by people
generally. for while everyone
comedies the right of anyone to
cease from his labors when he
feels he has a grievance winch
cannot be settled, yet they feel
that those who desire to work
should not be m0lested.
The Embellishments enl.
plOyees are aboutas fine a bunch
of people as is employed any
where in any manufactul ing
plant and they have always re-
NAMED true and loyal to their
company and we believe that
the friendly feeling existing be-
tween the company and the EN-
ployees will continue and that
the men will soon return TO their
work, knowing that when the
eight hour day becomes general
that this com pany will also adopt
the Sd me plan.
For men to leave this city to
go to other plants which have
the same schedule and same
rate of pay seems ratherabsurd.

Country's Farms.

Farmers lead an others in adopt
ing the truck for commercial pur-
poses According to figures COM
piled by the Department Of Agricui-
ture, there are approximately 7.ooo.-
900 farms In the country. whife the
number Of motor trucks used on
them approaches $4,000. Although
81 per cent OF the farms are Of more
than 100 acres. most Of the motor
trucks are used on farms Of lesser
acreage where intensive farming Is
done. Truck manufacturers esti-
mate that 10000 trucks will be
made in 1890. These figures give
some idea OF the field for motor
trucks on farms and the compare
lively small truck production to
meet the demand. The Goodyear
Tire and Rubber Company has been
big factor In demonstrating to
farmers the advantages of trucks,
staging many trips through the
South and West. The trucks are
shown in action on farms In varied
work and under all conditions. The

"DriOing With the Brakes "Means
Danger to Yourself and Your Car

q brake In bringing the car to
stop or in going down hills. To- the
csmmonsense driver there Is moth
ing startling in this advice. He has
discovered for himself that IL Is the
safe and satisfactory way to con-
troll q motor car. He has found
that II makes driving a real pleas
use.
II Is just as logical for the motor
to stop a motor car as to propel 1t.
In one case, with the throttle open,
the explosive power within the CYL
inders is used to drive the rear
wheels; in the other case, with the
throttle closed, the compression Of
fers a resistance against the pis-
tons which carried through the
transmission retards the movement
of the wheels.
Virtually every motorist Under
stands this principle. The point is,
however, he fails to apply 1t in his
driving.
The driver who uses his motor in
this manner will call on his brakes
less than one quarter as often as the
driver who depends on his brakes
entirely. He will drive easier and
skid less.
The correct way to use the motor
as a brake Is first to place the hand
throttle in a position SO that the
motor turns over slowly. Then use
the accelerator for driving. II you
are going down a grade, merely
take your. feet of the accelerator,
and the motor set at safe speed
will hold the car back. II you see
ha do fs, -Alx IN h1
steep, shift to second or first speed
starting down.
Consider. for instance. the engi-
neer on any of our fast passenger
trains. Does he rush his train al
most to the station door before shut
on the brakes? The proper care Of
sengers prohibit such practice.
As he enters the yard limits he
begins to close the throttle and
when he Is still some distance from
the station he applies the brakes
easily and smoothly. The train pulls
in and comes to an easy stop.
The same practice should be adopt
ed by motorists. True comfort and
you know that you will be required
TO lessen your speed, make prep
aIations a safe distance away. Let
the motor do the work of stopping
as we'll ~ stur:.rg.
what Motor breaking Bears.
II driving with the motor for
power and brakes should do moth
ing more than make motoring a
greater pleasure for you. it surely
Is worth while.
But, incidental to the increased
comfort. you will find that your
tires wear longer. And you will
find that less attention Is needed
in keeping the brakes in order for
emergency use.

Not so many years ago public opin-
ion declared a man q good driver when
he could speed up to point. jam on
the brakes and bring the car to \ stop
in a very short distance. In fact. this
sort Of ''braking power" was sup
posed TO be a test as to the worth Of
an automobile. .....
This idea of good driving still pre-
walls to some extent says Z. T.
Strong. general sales manager Of the
Buick Motor Company.
In the words OF people whose juds-
ments are generally accepted as true
by those called sensible. a good driver
is one who has his car under control
at all times. He Is cautious In what
ever he does that he may not endan-
ger the safety OF pedestrians, other
motorists or his own car.
1t naturally arises, then. that a man
who drives with his brakes is not a
good driver. This may seem like a
clear Up any doubts in this regard.
why cars nave brukess
Every automobile manufacturer real
ICES that il Is just as important to
stop a car as II to start II. With the
average driver. brakes receive more
wear than any other part of the car.
And for this reason engineers pay a
great deal of attention to the design
and material In brakes.
Most cars are equipped with two sets
OF brakes which operate on drums
bolted to the rear wheels. Successful
car manufacturers have worked out
the proper friction area and the cor
rect lining material to insure positive
action.
Because they are efficient how
ever. the average driver gets into
the habit of bringing his car to
dead stop with them nine times out
of ten. Because convenient he sub
jects his service brakes to unneces-
sary wear and abuse. II the fric-
tion surfaces were twice the ap-
proved size he would want to stop
in half the ordinary distance.
And. because his brakes are us
ually dependable, he trusts them to
answer his call in rounding corners,
crossing streets. passing other cars
or approaching railroad crossings.
He Is simply driving the car with
his brakes.
He does not have his car under
control at all times. He imperils
pedestrians. He tries to hold his
car on hills wholly with his brakes.
He ruins his tires and often causes
damage to many of the working
parts of his car. Notice the long
skid marks on the pavements. the
cars in service stations waiting for
brake Innings and cars along the
curb with broken wheels
what In the Answerf
Constructive criticism might con-
stitute this: Secure all the assis-
tance possible from your motor as
