PUTS FAITH IN YOUNG MEN
Successful Merchant Tells of System
Which Has Helped Him in His
Business Career.

- It takes time to do anything. There
fore, time is an important factor in
all accomplishments but the idea
that there is an age limit on ability
is headed for the discard. Where they
are given a free rein, young men
men under 40, and even under 80
are coming to the front in surprising
number A man who is noted for his
ability to make successes of young
men said recently:
"The secret Of my ability TO hold
men, and always to have man to put
in a responsible position is my policy
Of watching the Young man closely. i
keep an eye on all Of them, and before
they realize know who they are, l
am calling them into my Office and ask
ing for their advice If their advice
sounds at all plausible, l give them
carte blanche to go ahead apd work
out the plan they suggest. Often it
almost staggers them, but more often
than not they make good. Too few of
US realize the dormant ability we have
around our business IN the shape
of young accountants, stenographers,
clerks or young statesmen. FORBES

The DianemoicGo.

This singular name is given by the
inventor, Eduardo TorreSty Quevedo,
a Spaniard, TO an apparatus intended
to take the place Of stencgraphy in
reporting speeches. The apparatus,
which consists simply OF series of
little bells, requires the cooperation Of
eight or ten writer's. Each writer
takes a single phrase from the speak
erS mouth At the tinkie of a bell on
his left he begins to write what he
hears. The bell on his right arrests
him and sets his neighbor at work.
By the time the circuit is made the
first writer is ready for another
phrase Afterward the phrases, which
are numbered in their order of taking,
are reunited to form the entire report.
Tried at the Athenee, in Madrid, the
dianemologo is said to have given sat
fsfactory results-Washington Star.

indian Emerald Mines Located.

The ConQuiStadores, when they
seized the rich emerald mines of Co
lombia. forcing the native Indians
20 work them, suspected the existence
Of other mines. After search Of
three years in Colombia. Christopher
Dixon, engineer for the Colombian En-
eraid syndicate, says he has located
some Of the ancient mines hidden from
the, profteering Spaniards by the ma
tives.
The emeralds of Colombia are the
finest, but not the biggest, in the world,
and the country produces more than
all the rest of the world combined.
The recently rediscovered mines, Mr.,
Dixon said, are about two and hal2
days journey from Bogota.

RIVER IN PLACE OF A SWAMP
Remarkable Upheaval Said to E}e With
cut Precedent in History OF
British East Africa.

The bursting Of q swamp 80 miles
from Nairobi, writes the Londcn Daily
Mail correspondent, is without prece-
dent in the history Oh the British oc-
cupation of K@nya colony, formerly
British East Africa. Where Oacc was
a placid swamp covered With papyrps
grass. there IS now q permanent valley
with turbulent liver, flowing down
the center.
In the swamp was tio&tMg papy-
rus mattress many feet thick and with
about 20 feet Of water beneath. En-
bankmeutS were lGaGe and d bridge
erected carrying the road across the
swamp. and when the Thika railroad
was. constructed a substantial bridge
was also erected across this swamp
at q point few hundred yarGS below
the road bridge.
Now many square miles Of swamp
water have been released. The effect
was & breakup Of the papyrus like the
smashing Of log jam. The weight of
the water wiped out the main and
minor road bridges and seriously dam
aged the railway bridge. cutting off
from civilization the whole Of the huge
agricultural area of the Kenya prov
ince around Mount kenya.
Earthquake shocks were experienced
in this district recently, and the theory
of the government officials is that these
caused the sudden collapse Of the
support of the swamp, that support
PROBABLY taking the form Of Il rocky
roof of huge underground caverns.
No floods below the valley are re-
ported, and the, volume of water must.
therefore. have gone underground l&av-
ing behind new and unexplored
declivity many miles long, Which may
be the resting place Of minerals or re-
mains Of scientific Importance.

The original plant Of Durant

last November, said to be one of

EASY RIDING CAR
Many improvements Made in
$1,745 Machine Placed
on Market

The Lexington Motor Co., of
Connersville. Indiana, is out with
the announcement OF I new five
passenger touring model at s1745,
according to word received by F. L..
jenkins, local dealer.
According to the announcement.
the price on this new Series %"
is $24O less than the lowest previ-
Gus price on a Lexington motor car
equipped with the Ansted engine,
including the Moore multiple ex-
haust system which saves fuel and
adds power, and is an exclusive
Lexington feature patented by
John G. Moore, chief engineer.
The Ansted engine has been re-
fined and improved in many re-
spects. A new type of two ring pis-
ton is used that neither slaps nor
pumps oil, and which shows no
signs of wear after thousands of
miles of use. Perfect vaporization
of fuel is assured by the use Of the
Lexi- gasifier., enabling the Lexing-
ton to function properly regardless
OF weather conditions. a hish-grade
thermostat controls the water tenn
perat ure at all times, both in sum
mer heat and in winter cold.
Another salient feature of the
new Lexington is the frame design.
This incorporates the double TRAN
gular center cross-me EN- ber' on
which a patent is pending. Further
more. the side rails have the unu-
sual depth of seven and three-quar-
ter inches The wide steel running
boards are bo1ted to the side rails,
and are readily removable in case
OF accidental damage. The front
and rear cross-m embers have been
Strengthened by deeping the gusset
Plates The Lexington factory
claims that their frame construc-
ton is superior to anything on the
market in sturdiness and stiffness,
adding materially to the life Of
the car
Riding comfort has been achieved
in the new Series %" Lexington
BY using front and rear semi-ellip-
tic springs of exceptional length.
The front springs are 3S-lnches
long and 2-inches wide and the rear
springs are 59-inches long and pa
inches wide. The spring bolts are
oversize throughout, having dla-
meter of three-quarters Of an inch
everywhere except. at the front end
OF the rear springs where they are
a full inch in diameter. The makers
claim that the bolts in the front
ends OF the rear springs are sub
jected to the most strain and wear
on all cars, and have made proyts-
ion accordingly.
