House Celan1ng for the Car

H. w. Slauson, in Leslie's.
 Unfortunately. the increasing year round use of the car has served largely to eliminate the annual spring over- hauling performed by those motorists Of decade or so ago who rigiously put their cars up" for the winter. While electric lights and self-starters, hard surfaced roads, closed bodies and other cold weather comforts have brought the modern automobile into it's most effec- tive field of usefulness. it, nevertheless, requires as rigid inspection. adjustment and general overhauling as did the 'horseless carriage ancestors of today's s motor car.
 Therefore, regardless of whether a car is used 12 months in the year or but seven months out of that 12 the spring is the best season for such inspection and overhauling. The action of cold, snow and frozen ruts affects many parts. in- cluding the engine, cooling system, steer ing gear and tires.
 The man who keeps his car in perfect mechanical condition will also take pride in it's appearance. No piece of furniture receives more care in it's original finish than does the modern automobile Tn consequence, the motor car should re- ceive the same care with wax and polish as does the grand piano-more, in fact. for the former Is subjected to the action of heat. cold. rain, mud and tar, whereas the pampered musical instrument Is pro- tected from the clements

Pompeian cop found him, and he was sentenced to become breakfast food to a half-starved lion until he was going. going, gone.
 At last the day of the big show ar rived. Glaucus, with tiny stiletto, stood shivering in the arena. In the grandstand sat those who were now begrudging the invitations they'd wasted on him. Above, In the bleach CTS, sat the ones he'd often tipped In the boxes sat the Vestal Virgin, who had left somebody else to care for their lamps while they watched the matinee. But Glaucus wasn't diagramming the circus. He was focusing his attention on his puny blade, and wondering if he could jump faster than a lion could bite.
 There was a breathless moment. The lion was turned loose. Glaucus crouched for spring planning defiantly to bite the lion first, but the flea-bitten king of beasts sniffed not his prey. Tn- stead of swishing his tail, as any we'll todo lion does before breakfast he dragged it in the dirt. He didn't even come near Glaucus, but made a bee dive for the grandstand.
 For Petes sake get some pep in that lion, or gimme my money back yelled a Vestal.
 Remove the Athenian lion-meat," suddenly shouted a newcomer. He is innocent. Arbace.s murdered Apal- cides. Here's the priest Calenus, who seen him when he done it."

opulent Julia, saw him no more. The gay life had lost & customer
 Glaucus had rival. Arbaces the Egyptian was keen to say lone, lone, and when the lady langudly Tipped, Il think I'll take Glaucus" Arbacas hoarsed ''Revenge!" and crawled foth to do some damage. First neat little coup d'etar he pulled was to get Julia to send for Nydia. The blind can go anywhere, and Nydia had often taken flowers to the House of Julia, so she went
 "Hml They tell me you have a crush on this boy Glaucus?" inquired Julia of the blushing blind girl. Well, take it from me. sister, he hasn't got you in the back of his head. He's weak on this dis appointed blonde, lone. But I've got d little dose here with love kick in 1t.
 You slip it to him in a glass of wine, and he'll be barking round your doorstep with a leading chain about his neck" Nydia ripped up three times trying to run home She fed the love phitre. to G1aucus, and stood hard by waiting for him to start yamming mush. But the vengeful Julia, well paid by Arbaces, had given Nydia a mixture of corn liqueur and potash, and Glaucus disported him self hastily into pink monkey frenzy.
 The second card Arbaces played was to knife Iones brother, Apaecides, for mer priest of Isis, whom he was mad at anyway for embracing the Christian doc Urine.
 Glaucus, foaming like a hydrophobic pup, roamed In and took the murderer s stand above the dead man. Thus a

It was indeed Calenus, who had seen Arbaces in action and had been thrown into a dungeon by Arbaces to starve for prying on him. But Arbaces was saved from the crowds wrath. He looked up at the sky and saw what had been eating on the lion beside fleas. A vast pillar of smoke, flame that glared menacingly, then a quiver of the earth. Vesuvius was putting on the show that made Pains fire works painful.
 The circus was soon empty. Glau- GUS and the lion were both figuring on the best means of running away. It was Nydia who found Glaucus and led him to lone, and as the shower of ashes, smoke and lava brought on an artificial night, the blind girl led them safely through the dark she had all ways known. At last they reached the sea and found refuge in boat.
 Soon, tired out with the days lion and volcano play, Glaucus was asleep. At last even the sailors were snoring in Sea Bass, but Nydia was awake, reasoning with herself.
 Now the romance is ending" she argued and I've done what I'm sup posed to do. No use for me to stick around and make lone jealous"
 There was faint ripple, as though the heart of the ocean had lost a heat. The next morning, far from land, Glaucus and lone looked into sea as calm and fathomless as a blind girls Ieyes.

Sharpened Way to Success

Albert Sidney Gregg. in Leslie's.
 This story concerns a bright young fellow who has won independence by sharpening razors, by making friends and by knowing how to make folks talk about him and his business. He began with a wee grind shop" Now he rides around in big auto, and still runs a grind shop. but it is no longer a wee one.
 70. sharp" Stevens is an institution in Cleveland where he does his grind ing, and in Lakewood, a residence sub urb, where he lives. and Is a member of the city council. There Is lot of encouragement in the career of Sharp Stevens for the average young fellow. AS lad In a small town In New York state he got a job in cutlery fac tory, and by the time he was IF was boss of gang of razor grinders, all of them older than himself. After work ing in several razor shops fin New York and Canada. he went to Cleveland to help a cutler who needed grinder.
 Finally the boss offered to sell to Stevens. The young man had little money of his own and, borrowing $200 mere from his former Sunday school teacher in his home town. bought the shop. His first move was to leave the basement and rent space on street level. The only place available was a little hole in the wall with frontage of seven feet.
 He bought and sod razors. did grind ing of all kinds. and gradually put in a small stock of cutlery. He visited barber shops, and little Italy. Italians are fond of razors, and Stevens built up fine trade among those people,

In the narrow, wheel-scarred streets of Pompeii, beside door emblazoned with paintings of suds on Ice, stood Nydia. the blind girl, selling flowers to the crit ics of Chicken Run.
 Glaucus the Athenian, lolling on true Roman luxury, parked his chariot in front of the beverage emporium, and ordered the bartender to heave out some thing nearer than near beer. He spotted Nydias flowers.
 Here, little bimbo, petunia for my tunic front" he called, and as Nydia groped her way to his super-six-horse, he sprang forth to lead her. Nydia liked the sound of his voice. It was also the first time a young sport had ever lent a leading hand to the little blind flower vender. She also liked the clinking gold piece he slipped her, for her master was kind to her when she brought in shining coins.
 Glaucus killed his drink and stopped blocking traffic in the one-way street, but he came again soon for g. fresh cor sage for his tunic tie. In the end, he bought the little Nydia herself, so she flowers, and she was happy for awhile In his house.
 But though Nydia loved Glaucus, 1t never occurred to the rich young noble to take more than passing interest in his little blind slave. He was all tied up, bottled in bond, to lone of Naples, visit ing girl in Pompeh The white lights, the short-skirted elves. the long-eyed

WEEKLY METAL
nr Annocinted Prenn

New York, May 2S.-The demand for steel. which had given evidence of improvement. has again fallen off. Buyers are very conservative and are limiting their purchases to conform with immediate needs and some recent buyers have cancelled a few of thetr contracts. The undertone Is easy, ow- ing to fears of further price adjust ments in line with wage reductions and tho possibility of lower freight rates and consumers are awaiting de- Velopments. Pig iron is inactive with an easy tone and the trade has little confidence In maintained price levels
 Copper has held generally firm but thorc has been a marked falling off in business. After purchases of from 15 to 20 million pounds earller in the month there has been a lull in export demand which may have been partly due to the reactions in foreign ex- change rates. while it Is also reported that small lots of copper can be picked up at some European points at prices a shade below the equivalent of 13Hc, New York. Domestic manufacturers report little improvement in demand for products and are still buying very conservatively, but no disposition to shade prices has been reported.
 Tin has fallen about cent and is now below parity with London. Con suming demand is practically nil.
 Lead shows an easier tone due to the month end deliveries In a slow market and to the declining trend in London.
 Zinc continues dull, the low price at East St. Louis failing to stimulate dc- n!and. as consumers are apparently still well supplied for their small cur rent needs A little export inquiry has not yet resulted In business.
 Anthony rules firm. with few sell- CTS and demand goods.
