I. O. Wallace of the USL battery station advises all careful motorists to adopt the following battery axioms:
 Keep electrolyte water or moisture af any kind away from the outside of fhe battery and from the inside of the battery compartment. This will pre- vent short circuits otherwise likely to occur at those points.
 Occasionally wipe all dust and dirt off the battery surface. Go still fur ther. Wipe over all the metal parts uith a vaseline covered rag. Then give the parts a good coating with the vasclinc. This will keep them bright and prevent acid exuding from the bat frrv from sulphating them.
 "If acid should by accident get on the rxterior Of the battery or compartment interior. clean it off by prompt appli- cation of washing soda, which IS a stronr aIlSan. Then clean the alkalt off fhorourhly with a wet rag, and wipe f~v. Coat metal parts with vaseline.

Man Sentenced to Life
Michigan Court Holds Husband
Guilty of Murder for Grant.
ing Woman's Request
; Special Dispatch to This Tribun


DETROIT. July 25.-No matter how
much a person may be suffering and
desirous of death, any one who places
within his reach the means to commit
suicide is guilty of murder in the first
degree as an accessory before the fact
and must be sentenced to solitary con-
finement in state prison for life That
is the finding of the Supreme Court Of
Michigan in the case of the People
VS.. Frank c. Roberts
Roberts's wife was victim OF multi
pie sclerosis and was helpless. She
once had attempted suicide by carbolic
acid. but had failed As she iay j.. bed
she asked her husband to mix paris
green with water and leave it by her
bedside. He did so. She drank it and
died:
The husband was charged with mur-
der, made confession and was SEN
fenced. Then his attorney appealed,
one of the grounds being that suicide
is not criminal offense in Michigan n
and that if no crime had been com
mitted there can be no accessory to
that crime.
To this the Supreme Court replied
by citing number of authorities to
the effect that, "He who kills another
at his own desire or command is a
murderer as much as if he had done
IL of his own hand"
