Protecting The Ignition Unit

In washing the car or in driving
through a heavy rain, great care
must be exercised in preventing any
water getting around the distributor
cover to which the ignition wires are
atachted, which cause a short cir
cult. To overcome this. cut a piece
about u inches long out of an old
scrap inner tube and slip it over the
distributor and wires and tape the
top end tightly together. This makes
it next to impossible to short circuit

 Vienna days with his cronies when every thing was youth, and idealism and art
 when "we didn't work, we just had
 talent"
 One of the most interesting features
 about Fritz Kreisler is hts remarkable
 versatility. Harold Bauer, the great
 pianist, maintains that as great vio-
 linist as Kreisler Is an absolutely su-
 preme pianist was lost to the world
 when he chose the violin as his instru-
 ment. Kreisler's father, a famous physician and surgeon of Yiennas
 urged his son to take music seriously as a career but at the same time he has always been conviheed that Frit1 had unusual promise is medicine. As matter of fact, Fritz sDsEt a yeat studying medicine during his period of storm and stress when, after astonish- ing tho world as prodigy, he becama uncertain whether he wanted to cons tlnuo as a musician Finally, although he does not talk about 1t much, he once had a distinct ambition to become 2 painter and when he was in Paris studying with Massart. he was alsa working at Julien's, the most famous atelier of It's time. There are In this country several well known artists whe knew him at this period and while the9 are not sure that Kreisler would have become as great a painter as he is { youth of much more than ordinary ability and talent.

The subject touched tuberculosis and Kreisler. fresh from Europe, was far better informed oa the progress the work had made theri than the specialists themselves.
 A result of his studies in paintinss is found in his keen interest in and just criticism of pictures. EIe will d as far to see an interesting painting al he will to hear an interesting new At heart a conservative in art of all kinds he has little use for the new school of painting knowr AS post-impressionism.

ciation or ms books--eyen though "Casuals of the Sea" and Captain I Macedoine's Daughter are certainly good enough to warrant their admira- ton.
 Mr. Melee has been, nearly all of his life, an engineer on ocean liners. He has sailed the seven seas. Just now he has charge of the engines on a shin
 which plies between New York and the West Indies, and upon his arrival in port---a date which Is anticipated with
 the same eagerness that child looks
 forward to Christmas--a delegation of
 book and newspaper men gather In his
 stateroom. In the olden days McFee
 would have come ashore and around a table in some convenient hostelry would
 have met his friends. Now his friends
 meet him and there Is testimony to the
 effect that the reunions are not as dry as the typical Sahara.
 It might be said of Mir. McFee that
 he ought to spend his time writing
 novels rather than in doctorinR en-
 zines. He despises, however, a hum
 drum life and says that to sit down every day to do stunt of writing. in the same old place and amid the same old surroundings, would bore him to death. So he comes into port and goes out again--and as long as things are what they are, he will not lack for com
 panionship while his ship is fastened
 to the dock.
 When you want legal advice. you go to a lawyer, and for medical aid you consult doctor It has now been cleverly arranged that if you want a suggestion about book to read, or something which your child would like you can attend the book clinic" which a couple of enterprising New York wom- on have started. The idea is not . had one, although the statement that '.the book expert is also a specialist in child psychology" seems to imply that the se- lection of reading for children is much more serious nowadays than when the men and women of the present genera ton were boys and girls.
 How much are you willing to pay for a book? It all depends. of course, upon whether you are just an average human being or collector of rare volumes.

It is questionable whether any musician of today has a more thorough, acquaintance with the Italian classics, particularly the Italian classics for the violin.

New York, January 1.--It seems like the
 irony of fate that Harry A. Francl
 should be living this winter In an apart.
 ment in New York.
 For the last 14 years Franck has been the worlds champion pedestrian He be- gan by walking around the earth--at
 least that portion of it which he could ! tread under foot-and he wrote of his Is
 months wanderings in a book entitled "A IVagabond Journey Around the World '' I Then he tramped through Spain from Gibraltar to the Pyrenees made his way ! through Mexico, Gualemalas and Hon. duras, served as policeman in the canal zone, vagabonded down the Andes from Bolivia to Argentina, and then footed 1t | from Patagonia to Venazuela He marched through the war ahd then went on 8 pedestrian tour through changing Germany. and finally spent six. months roaming through the West Indies. After al! these experiences to shut himself up in a flat must seem an odd sensation But he Is married now, and has wife and baby boy, and wife and child, any one will tell you, are apt to put a quietus upon the most aggravated attack of wanderiust.
 Franck has had a remarkable life. He was a professor of languages in the uni- versity of Michigan when he determined to see the world When he started he had only a few dollars, his camera and the clothes upon his back He earned his way, frequently suffered much priva- tion and Saw corners of the world where foreigners were almost unknown. He has an eye like microscope and a memory as long as the moral law. Personally, hope that his tramping days are not yet over. wish he would visit Austria ana write book about the lonely continent. Here is a new field for him to conquer, md 1,fa LQ al h rors make his expenses and 8 handsome profit.
 Why not? He is still in the prime of 1ife-about 40--and the muscles In his legs cannot be flabby after all the training they have undergone.
 Some people, when they have nothing original on their minds, compile an- thologies. They collect the works of other people. There are lots of these collections on the market. They in- clude the best stories and poems which nave appeared in the magazines and newspapers. verses which celebrate the flowing bowl or g1orify tobacco, or which relate to some other subject of more or less popular interest. The latest is a volume of humorous poems assembled by Carolyn Wells, who can
 clever verso herself.
 Most of us are thoroughly familiar with the versifiers who contribute to the gayety of nations. In this new book, however, it can be discovered that poets of serious mold have frequently indulged in the light and fantastic and are thus eligible as humorists. Oliver Goldsmith, Robert Southey. Samuel Wesley. John Milton, Alexander Pope, John Keats-these are few of the unexpected names to be found In the, index. If the truth must be told, some of these poems are rather heavy in the matter of humor. They seem to stand aside in dignified fashion from tho rsst of their company.
