Calomel salivates! It's mercury.

GREATNESS NOT ON SURFACE
Reporter Had Perceived Nothing to
Indicate That His Companion
Was a Man of Note.

Every one is entitled to one chuckle
in days like these, just as every dog
Is entitled to one bite. Hence this
story of Sinclair Lewis, which is being
repeated with vicious enjoyment by a
lot Of the lowbrows.
1t appears that Lewis was a guest
at dinner not long ago at which a
number of newspaper men and other
low forms Of life were present. The
guests were introduced to their hosts
In this fashion:
"Gentiemen-this Is Mr.. Smith, Mr.
Jones and. Mr.. Lewis"
Mr.. Lewis sat next to a reporter.
The reporter talked of politics, the
next war, heat, Babe Ruth. the big
fight and other bourgeois things and
said no word Of literature.
Mr.. Lewis became first uneasy and
then unhappy. When he could stand

She waited until all most closing time before entering the school. a red brick, lumpy sort of building, not specially attractive. It looked as if she had come too soon. All eyes soon focused on her instead of on the busy little teacher. Tie word "trio" was being explained to the children and volunteers were asked to stand and use the word in q sentence. And no one need expect to go home until the word was fully ex. plained.

H0I' WATER ALWAYS AT HAND
Continuous Flow of Boiling Liquia and Steam From tho lnnumerable
 Geysers of Iceland.

Ike hot-water fountains of Iceland are on mounds averaging seven feet ia height, the top of each of which forms the edge of a sort of basin. From these basins the steam of boiling wa ter can be seen rising and the over- Goyy of water is continuous. 1he con- tents of these basins is as clear a1 crystal azd one can see to a great depth, while just below the surface gre many wonderfully beautiful white sncrustations, to obtain samples of which many visitor to Iceland has burned his fingers. The petrifcations caused by the boiling water streams frop the geysers include birch and willow leaves, grass and rushes seem. irgly converted into marble.
 At no time Is 1t entirely safe to loiter in the vicinity of one of these bottomless basins, for the geyser has a way of spouting and gives no ad- vance warning. Sometimes there will be shoot of boiling water to height of 15 feet, followed by a succession of jets. The highest shoot of which there Is any record was 90 feet.

Rear Axle Over haul
 /S
, " Save this. It may come in handy.

" ' Save this. It may come in handy.
 The causes that necessitate a rear axle overhaul are in the majority of cases due to neglect, carelessness or abuse. l
 Lack of fabrication is the most pro- life cause of trouble. Overlooking the car, hard and reckless driving will soon wreck any rear axle and differ ential. Applying the foot pedals too quickly and hard places undue strain on the rear system. Failure to keep rear wheels tight on axle shafts soon ruins the shafts and bearings trying to get out of a mud hole without the use of chains puts a tremendous strain on the entire rear system and will materially shorten it's life.
 Natural wear and tear will in time uake a rear axle overhaul necessary, I .eed not think of a rear axle overhaul Ut if Ford owners will only use more iscretion in the use of their cars they
 eed not think of a rear axle overhaul IT long time. 8I
 When we overhaul a rear axle in our shops, we proceed as follows:
 The rear end of the car is hoisted and rear wheels are removed. Rear springs perches nuts, as we'll as brake rod clevis pins, are removed. The rear axle assembly is disconnected at the universal point and pulled fzom the car. The assembly is now placed on a special rear axle bench and then disassembled. All internal parts are washed and cleaned, Each part is subjected to a minute inspection and all worn parts are replaced. All parts to be replaced are removed and new parts installed through the use of special jigs and arbor presses. The axle shafts and drive shaft are tested and if out of true they are straighten- ed in strengthening press.
 All internal parts having been as- 'embled, delicate and final adjustments i| Ire made. All parts are thoroughly and enclosed in housing. The assembly is now brought back to car md installed. New felts are placed at he outer ends of the rear axle prevent 'll leaks before wheels are put on. Brake rods are capitalized and adjust 'd. The axle is then given thorough M md final test, and when theacar is K urned over to the owner he can rest \ that We have done a good job. ~
 Our labor charge for this work is '6.50, necessary parts extra.
 We use Genuine Ford Parts, e1clu- lively.
 Be sure that your rear axle has the proper amount of lubricant. l Don't overload or let others overload he car.
 Don't allow yourself or otHers toM ~ rive recklessly, H
 Be more considerate in the use oNi he foot pedals, #i
 At least once a month unscrew rea4 wheel hub caps, remove cotter plns1 nd with the use of a stout wrenchM lraw up the castle nuts as tight aM 'ou can and replace cotter pins. This& will prevent play and save your axlaS | aafts and bearings. MI
