 "Oh!" gasped Wilifred. "Then, of course, there isn't anybody here but yOu-nO wOman@"
 "No, no woman," and he looked wistfully across the desert plain as though hoping she were coming.
 "Of course," Wilifred hastened to say, "a woman would be so afraid of the bees"
 And a bit afraid of me and the desert-so she did not come in the first place. Perhaps she was right"
 "Oh," murmured Wilifred sympa- tO-to-pry."
 You didn't. You simply caught me rather unawares. I think I told you because I wanted to. Old bachelors get so lonesome that they are garru- lous on slight provocation now and then. And if you will not mind my saying it. 1t was because I fancied a resemblance in you to that woman who feared to trust me and the desert here with her future. As I said be- fore, perhaps she was right. At any rate blame her less and less as the years roll by. But" changing again to his matter-of-fact manner, "you have not told me whether there Is anything I could do for you.'
 "Oh, yes," laughed Wilifred, "or rather no, I guess not. We went into a chuckhole and the men are digging the machine out, so 1 came exploring And 1 am so much more interested in the bees and the honey than dig ging out autos. which has become a rather common thing"
 Have you ever tasted any of the valley honey? was going to say catclaw honey, but as you are tender foot you'd hardly know the term. Let me go inside and get some for you."
 Returning, he handed her upon a wooden plate most delicious cake of honey just cut from the frame and 1t was "bleeding" it's liquid sweetness in little orange rivulets into the dish.
 "How perfectly scrumptious Um-m, my! I'll go back and share 1t with the fam, and then as we come by, they shall tell you how much it added to our lunch, for we have not eaten it yet" She turned to go.
 Perhaps I'd better get the horses ready, for we sometimes have to pull people out of these holes," suggested the bee man.
 'Well, what have you there, Mrs. Christopher Columbus?" asked her aunt as Wilifred approached her aunt's perch at the side of the road, bubbling over with delight at her ac- quisition.
 Sitting down beside her Wilifred proceeded to tell her all about it. "Sweetest man on Gods green earth, auntie. He was honey from the crown of his hat to the soles of his shoes. Fact! You'd be crazy about him. I guess the girl that he was going to marry stung him so hard that he took up bees as a counter irritant. Whats the matter auntie?" For her aunt gasped, turned white, sprang to her feet, looking from left to right in dis

 The body and wheels of the seven passenger phaeton are finished in deep, rich Valentine blue with black lenders and white striping around the body, hood louvres and wheels. The four passenger phaeton, is finished in the same shade of blue but with vermilion wheels and stripping on the body bevel and louvres. This adds a pleasing dash of color and serves to set off the distinction of it's lines.
 The Sedan also is finished in valen- tine blue with light grey upholstering while the coupe is in maroon and the touring in Brewster green Both of the latter are upholstered in beautiful harmonizing fabrics.

TIRES ARE TIRES
 BUT THEY SOUND
 RATHER PECULIAR

A thing which ties is a tire-and that is the best explanation the mak- CTS of the dictionary give us as to the manner in which the word tire came into existence.
 The first purpose of the tire was to tire or bind the wheel together. As time has passed, the original meaning of the word has been lost sight of and now the tire is the part of the wheel which touches the road and stands the wear of travel.
 The entrance of American tire firms into the export field has turned gray the hair of many an advertising man who must keep straight in his mind the names by wDich tires are known in the various foreign countries.
 To begin, there are England and her possessions which insist on spelling the word tyre" No less an authority than England's own Encyclopedia Brit tanica is on record with the opinion that 'this spelling is not now accepted by the best English authorities.'' yet
 tyre presists everywhere under the British flag except in our neighbor Canada, where tire" is correct.
 In some of the Spanish speaking countries, such as Chile and the Ar genuine, tires are known as sneuma- ticos." But in, Mexico they are Han tas." In still other places where Span ish is the language. notaby Cuba, the correct word is ''gomas." In Brazil. where .Portugese is spoken. the name is "pneumaticos."
 The French have the short name "pneus" for tires. This is a correction of pneumatiques. In practically all the Scandinavian countries the Danish word gummiringer"-rubb ring is lSad

By simply raising the glass partition from the back of the front seat, it becomes formal, limousine type of ear. When the glass partition is.owered, however. the front and rear compartments are thrown together giving the car all the intimacy of a drawing room. There is luggage rack on the top for touring and an ef- fective heater for use in cold weather. Like au-the enclosed Hudson models there is crowl ventilator and visor is provided in front of the windshield to protect the eyes of those in the front compartment from sun.

HUDSON MODELS 1T AUTO SHOWS
 ATTRACT FAVORABLE ATTENTION
 F0R1HE|R LOOKS AND STRENGTH

The Hudson Super-six exhibit at the automobile show this year consists of a beautifully finished chassis and six distinctive body designs.
 For years the Hudson exhibit has been one of the centers of interest for tNe super-six has long .held the reputo- tion of setting the mode.
 This year is no exception to the rule as the 1920 Hudson models are more notable than ever before for their beauty and luxury and. in addition, a stripped chassis is being shown for the first time in many years.
 JuJs glance at this chassis is suf- ficient to impress visitors with it's wonderful strangth of construction. The next impression is amazement at its simplicity and the absence of the usual mass of complicated controls and rods.
 The engine is simply a clean block of metal to which the carburetor is boIted. The clutch and transmission are unit with the motor. The drive being on the Hotchkiss principle through the springs, there are no tor sion or radius rods to marr the clean cut appearance of the chassis which shows the constant growth toward perfection resulting from years or re- finement
 The body designs on view include a senger phaeton, a sedan, coupe and touring limousine. Each one repre- sents the highest development of the body builders art and although the general lines are the same as those which have distinguished the White Triangle for many years, there are many refinements in detail.
