Kurokol, the new scientific cole

provides the safest, surest and quick

treatment for colds yet discovered.
This new remedy, according to the
statements of the thousands who have

tendency to sneezing and coughing
and relieves the feeling of discomfort,

The great superiority of KurokoI
over the ordinary treatment hereto

it is a combination treatment and acts
as an antpyretic. eXpectOrant, 1axa-

The education of the children of to-

biggest problem which confronts the
United States today, DR.. Charles E.
Barker, hygiene expert, told audiences
of mothers, fathers. sons and daugh-
ters, at the city auditorium, Tuesday

is a nationally known lecturer on
clean living, morally. and physically.
Punishment is necessary, DR.. Barker
said, but it should be made to suit
the needs and nature of the child. He
objected to physical punishment of
every sort.
DR.. Barker spoke to an audience of
women and their daughters at the city
auditorium at 3 o'clock Tuesday

at 1880 o'clock Tuesday evening.
In addition to the lecture, Dean
Henry V. Stearns gave a half hour or

your head-yet man had mastered
electricity for years before he knew a
charged wire In vacuum would give
such brilliancy. That differential on
your rear auto axle-yet rear axles

equalized turning speeds by a triplet
gear Of utter simplicity.
Life is full of mechanical miracles.
We take them for granted.
Gas-checks belong to the class. After
four years of war every one knows
what a gas-check Is. Fits In the gun,
you know, TO prevent bareback or
leakage of powder gas on firing.
Breech-plug is just round chunk
Of steel threaded TO screw into the

pierced by small hole In its center.

1t really looks like mushroom just
big enough TO enter the gun. When

projectile gets an awful boot in its

Gases do the booting. Fiery. furious
masses of gases, rending heaven and
earth asunder TO escape. It's the heat
OF their passionate desire that gives
the shell it's kick. Were there any
other avenue OF escape never would
they bother with half-ton shell.
SO breech must be sealed tight. Be

against the plug. In helpless agony
it's edges protrude. They squash
against the gun tube and check efrectu-
ally escape of gas. Hence, gas-check
pad.
But that Is common knowledge. The
interesting point Is historical. Naval
guns stuck over the side. To load
them muzzle-ways running-ln was once
necessary. But running-in took time.
So our worthy forbears built breech
leaders. Whlskers were then In vogue.
Alas. the cruelty of war! Breech load

In consequence breech-loaders were

term) discovered that his guns were
shooting high. He signalled changes

frightfulness. Yet our own strategists
planned and In part executed just such
a blockade along the coast Of our
southern states. The U-boats used by
the Germans embodied the substance
OF American inventions.
With goose-fiesh and gloom we
studied lurid portrayals Of the night
attacks abroad. Yet our very own War
department equipped It's signal forces

calcium lights "by means Of which a
force Of 1000 men could work at night

All this taught the Confederates to
use camounsge. They used dummy
guns and put up green branches TO
conceal the real ones. In one part OF

According to factory officials both here and in Detroit. or oers from distributors are coming in, and motor manufacturers have re- reived a number of orders for motors, enc notable order being from tractor manufacturing concern.
 It is expected that the New York and Chicago automobile shows will greatly stimulate buying and conse- ouently production. All that is new est and latest in the manufacture of motor cars will be shown the public a; these exhibitions. and intense in terest has already been manifested in the exhibitions by the largest distribu- tors throughout the country, a freat many of these men making special ar rangements to attend both shows.

One of the finest demonstrations of the use to which a tractor can be put that has ever been seen in this part of the country. was that which character ized the Ford dealers convention, held here last Wednesday and Thursday.
 Every Ford dealer in the state was in attendance and the convention was in charge of such men as R. L. Graves, the Ford branch manager of the Los Angeles territory; C. w. Cunning, fac tory representative for the southwest ern district on Fordson tractors; Fac tory Representative Beard, special man from the Oliver Plow works; and Frank Blake, representative for this concern in the states of Arizona, New Mexico and southern California.
 Special representative Serviss, in charge of the distribution of Superior grain drills, was also in attendance.
 This convention was held for the purpose of thoroughly acquainting the Ford dealers with the possibilities of the Fordson tractor and the various implements and machinery that can be used in connection with it. Special demonstrations were carried out, utiliz- ing disc blows, mold board blows. disc harrows, road graders, fresno scrapers,
