NOTHING TO Do BUT WORK!
When One Thinks of 1t, It Is Rather n
Foolish Way to Spend Ones
Lifetime.

The most common complaint we
hear from everybody we know is that
they can't keep up with all there Is
to be done. We make the same COM
plant. Like you all, we undertake to
do seventeen thousand things more
than the hours of the day will permit
us to do.
It is an awful mistake. To be driv-
en- like a galley slave IS the rule we
have made for our lives. And, oh, to
quit it all, or to quit all but the things
we would like to do and are worth
whilel
To never catch up, to never know
what it is not to be tired-it is fool
ish way to spend lifetime. This one
and only little lifetime that is ours.
And what are we to do about It'll
Cut loose anC run away; we eIess 1t
is the only thing to do.-Los angeles

DEWS OF EVE
No More Gentle Than
"CaScaretS" for the
Liver, Bowels

1t is just as needless as it is danger
Gus to take violent or nasty cathartfcs.
Nature provides no shock absorbers for
your liver and bowels against calornel,
harsh pills, sickening oil and salts.
Cascarets give quick relief without in-
Jury from Constipation, Biliousness, In
digestion, Gases and Sick Headache.
Cascarets work while you sleep, remov-
ing the toxins, poisons and sour, in.
digestible waste without gripping or in
convenience. Cascarets regulate by
strengthening the bowel muscles. They
cost so little too.--Adv.

Music OF ANCIENT GREECE
Bands That Marched to War With the
Soldiers Played on Flutes,
Pipes and Harps.

Poetry in ancient Greece was &C
campanied by the cithara and the
Tyre, while the flute was played by
both men and women in furnishing
martial music to the soldiers in time
of war. Musical bands marched to
war with the soldiers and played on
flutes, pipes and harps.
The Tyre and the harp were pre-
ferred by the Greeks for private use,
for 1t was thought they did not pre-
vent one from remaining master of
himself, while the flute, pipe or clari-
net put the man beside himself and
obscured reason. There were extern
sive choirs whose music was distinct
ly connected with the religious life
of the people. These choirs were COM
posed of both men and women and
were employed for public and private
religious festivals.
The choirs celebrated victories in
war, deaths, holy days, births and
marriages. Altman, who lived as
early as $50 B. c., wrote choir song
for girls which was dramatic part
song.

MUST MAINTAIN THE
 QUALITY STANDARD DeLisser Decries Crisis Talk and Advises Full Speed
 Ahead for Prosperity

Interesting observations and reflec- tions on business conditions of the day are contained in statement recently issued by Horace DeLisser, presiden nt of the Ajax Rubber Company, Incor- porated. Mir. DeLisser. as head of one of the great automobile tire manufac- tories, is known as keen observer, a thorough analyst and conserya tive forecaster. Hence his views and predictions are of more than common importance
 There seems to be an almost uni : versal tendency" Mir. DeLisser as serts, for the helmsman in business to worry-to cast ominous glances skyward and wonder from which quar- ter the wind if any, IS coming next.
 Carrying out the yachting meta phor, isn't it better to head into what ever wind there is with all sales set :? I'll answer my own question-and de- cdedly in the affirmative.
 The manufacturer of a quality pro- duct, be it automobile tires, whirl-i- gigs or whatnots. has little to worry about so long as he maintains the quality standard on which his success in the past has been built.

THE AUTOMOBILE IS
 PROVIDING MEANS FOR WEEKEND TRIPS

Where at one time everybody was dependent upon railroads or steamers for their vacation objective. the ma jority of people have quit looking up time cards and rates remarked John D. Mansfield. general sales manager of the Dort Motor Car Company.
 The automobile is providing vaca- ton means for thousands who did not think such an outing was within their reach. And. not only that, but it has made the weekend habit general and in consequence more people are getting the fresh air of the country and tine benefits of a day or two of relaxa- tion.
 And everybody is becoming a dis coverer. Motorists seek the unfre- quented places, and when they find something rare, they pass the word along. so that wherever there are unique or beautiful surroundings may be found people from the cities.
 For vacation and weekend trips the small car fits perfectly. Reports of these trips come to us almost every day from Dort owners. They encoun- ter all sort of roads in their search for the best ones, and they say that the performance of their cars is all that can be asked in sand and hill cllm ping. Also there is an unusual degree of comfort owing to the bal ance and the spring suspension"

Tn some lines of American manu- faeture since the war, there has been a marked effort to maintain a low price at the expense of quality This of course, is dangerous, for poor quality is remembered long after the price Is forgotten, and good will suffers i'm measuTably. When good will suffers business goes bad. That is an axiom. Good will is the most enduring asset in all business if properly safeguarded.
 The present year. so far as the tire business is concerned has been an unusual one. The heavy selling season has been somewhat delayed by unfavorable weather conditions in most localities. Unreasonable weather has held back the automobile tourist. and consequently delayed the big tire purchases of the car owners.
 However, We are loC1-ing forward to most successful season Don't forget that more cars are running to- day than ever before in the nations history. Hundreds of thousands mora will be running next year. So condi- tions point to continued good business for the manufacturers of quality 1 tires"

PLENTY OF GAS FOR
 OVERLAND TRIP Motorists on Trip to Pacific Coast Will Find Ample
 Supply of Fuel

At the present time there are thou sands of automobiles travelling east; a month later the westward travel will begin, for there is to be an exodus of motorists to the Pacific coast this fall.
 But the gasoline shortage in Califor- nit, which cannot be explained at all has frightened many who intended to make the overland trip.
 It may be set down as a fact that there is little to be feared from this, according to investigations made by John c. More, chief engineer of the Lexington Motor Company of Corners vile, Ind A goodly number of Lexing- ton owners sought the aid of Mir Moore for information that might offset the welcome reports.
 There is no trouble this side of the California Nevada line, according 10 the reports reaching MT. Moore. The supply is ample as a rule in all parts, even the little places. The price VIII run from 26 to 32 cents gallon eA cept in the remote spots off the raii lines where the fuel must be hauieo great distances by truck.
 The motorist would not be required to fill up with this high priced gasoline more than about three times. By fill ing completely where the price is rea- sonable and perhaps by carrying ten extra gallons in a good can strapped 10 the running board or in the car ne will be apt to get along without tax ing on the more expensive fuel.
 There will be little trouble as far as Reno. From this point to San Francisco there wili-be some restriction; that IS, the n,otorist will be limited in the sup ply that will be given him at filling station.
 But there are. filling stations every few miles and so if only couple Of gallons were secured at each the mo- torist would have no trouble and only a little annoyance from the Nevada line to the coast proper.

China's Railway Mileage

Charles Hodges, in the World Outlook
 lack of railroad development in China has been threatening the fu- ture of approximately 4oo, 100000 people for a decade Two-thirds of China s troubles may be laid to the fact that the Chinese republic has over three times the population of the United States, but has the railway mileage of the state of Wisconsin. China has but one mile of railway to each 460 square miles of territory; in the United States we have a mile of railway to each twelve square miles of land.

The speeds at which they travelled were not unusual, for another Essex stock car had on speedway track gone 3,O37 miles in 50 hours. But in the transcontinental runs, some $50 cities and towns had to be crossed. Crowded traffic imposed its obstacles to con- sistent going. Mountain ranges in the East and West with grades such as the average driver never encounters, called for the ut- most of hill climbing ability
 Few will ever motor all the way across America and therefore cannot know the ex- treme varieties of conditions encountered. But let each reader apply to his considera- tion of what Essex has done, every expe- rience he has ever met in his own driving. It will give some appreciation of Essex re- liability.

Two Essex touring cars, carrying U. s. Mail each one making the entire trip be- tween San Francisco and New York, have set the time records for their respective di- rectons across the American continent. And thus comes to Essex another distinc- ton for reliability and endurance.
 Except for one airplane record, these two Essex cars have crossed the continent in less time than was ever recorded by any travel ing mcahine. The fastest time possible be- tween San Francisco and New York by train Is slightly less than the time taken by the light weigh economical Essex But in the case of the railroad train, many different To- comotives are used, each pulling the train only few hundred miles.
 From Cheyenne to Omaha the route taken by the Essex was 43 miles longer than the $50 mile route of the famous Overland Lim- ited yet the Essex time was but one hour longer than the express train time.
 The Worlds Most
 CoUeted Records
 From the days of the Prairie Schooner the Pony Express and the completion of the rail- roads men have sought to establish new transcontinental time records between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
 It has called for the highest development of skill and courage. And it has, as in the case of the motor car, blazed the way to me- chanical reliability.
 The purpose of this Essex test was to prove its reliability. In the period of IA hours was crowded more strains, more calls for endurance and mechanical strength than the average owner demands in life time.
 Every requirement of motor car perform ance was met by these two cars. And the fact that they 50 consistently met their tasks proves Essex uniformity.

Light Weight Now Establishes Reliability

How gradual have men come to realiza- ton that light weight car can also offer reliance and performance.
 Essex has led the way for that was its purpose from the very first. Economy is of growing importance. Men want to save in fuel and in first costs. But they want no sacrifice in performance and they demand unquestioned reliability.
 Essex offered itself to the public without claim. Now more than 40, ,OOO owners know and praise its worth.
 Owner cars that had been driven upwards of 25,0OO miles were used in the recent na- tion wide Essex week to establish reliability, economy, speed and hill climbing recordas
 To Essex owners the winning of the trans- continental records Is not a surprise But those who do not know Essex performance and reliability must regard that these two trips across the continent are as important in marking mechanical advancement as any similar event in the history of the motor car.

items in the afternoon session was
