300 MILES ON FUEL
COSTING 51a CENTS

Syracuse, N. Y, April 27.-Three
hundred miles by an automobile on
gallon of fuel costing five and one
half cents, is the claim II. Fl. Elmer,
treasurer and general manager of
the Globe Malleable Iron and Steel
company of this city, makes for an
engine designed by himself, reveal
ed TO the directorate of the company,
at its annual meeting here today.
internationally known engineering
experts. including Arthur West. chief
engineer of the Bethlehem Steel
corporation, have inspected Mr.. Ell
mer's engine, and are said to have
pronounced it hundreds of years
ahead of the times.
Three fun sized models were test
ed before the directors today, One
of the models, a one cylinder. three
horse power engine, ran continuous
ly for eighteen hours on one and
one quarter pints of fuel. the direc-
tors stated.
The fuel used is oil, either miner
al, animal or vegetable. No igni-
tion or carburetor is used. One of
Mr.. Elmer's models has attained a
speed of from Assoc. to 5000 revolu-
lions minute, he claims. The
principle of the discovery is based
on the chemistry Of oil, according to
Mr.. Elmer.

CHAPTER XII.

Throughout the term Ramsey's cal
culation of probabilities against the
happening Of another Interview with
Dora seemed TO be well founded, but
at the beginning Of the second SEM
ESTER he found her 10 be a fellow
member of class In biology. More
than that. this class had every week
two-hohr session in the botanical
laboratory. where the structure OF
plants was studied under microscopic
dissection. The students worked In
pairs, special family Of plants being
assigned TO each couple; and the In
structor selected the couples with an
eye to combinations of the quick with
the slow. ID. Yocum and n. Milhol-
land (the latter In strange state OF
mind and complexion) were given two
chairs. but only one desk and one MI
croscope. Their conversation was
strictly botanical.
Thencefortn 1t became the most
pressing care of Ramsey's life to pre-
vent his roommate from learning that
mere was any conversation at all.
even botanical. Fortunately, Fred
was not taking the biological courses,
though he appeared to be taking the
sentimental ones With an astonishing
Dohoroughness. and sometimes, to Fred's
hilarious delight, Ramsey attempted to
turn the tables and rally him upon
whatever last AFFAIR seemed TO be en-
saging his fancy. The old Victorian
and pre-yictorian plague word pet
ticoat" had been revived In Freds
vocabulary. and In others, a. skirt"

when Ramsey tried to fuster him
about such matter Fred would pro-
fess his ardent love for the new lady

ing could be done to him, and Ramsey,
utterly unable to defend his own sensi-
bilities In like manner, had always
to retire in baffiement. Sometimes he
would ponder upon the question thus
suggested: Why couldn't he do this
sort Of thing, since Fred could7 But
he never discovered satisfying an
swer.
Ramseys watchfulness was so care
full (lest he make some impulsive ad-
mission In regard to the botanical lab
oratory, for instance) that Mr.. Nit
chel's curiosity gradually became al
most quiescent but there arrived
day in February when it was piqued
into the liveliest activity. 1t was Sun
day, and Fred, dressing with a fas-
tidiousness ever his daily habit, no.
tlced that Ramsey was exhibiting an
unusual perplexity about neckties.
Keep the black one on" Fred said,
volunteering suggestion, as Ramsey
muttered fiercely at mirror. Its in

You're going to church, aren't your"
"Yes. Are your"
"No. I've got luncheon engage

"well. you could go to church first.

fessor's daughter wno also was noe
going to church that morning and she
lived a little more than three miles
beyond the outskirts of the town. I'M
fortunately, as the weather was threat
ening, all others of her family aban-
doned the idea of church that day, and
Fred found her before a coy fire, but
surrounded by parents, little brothers
and big sisters. The professor was
laxative; Fred's mind might have
been greatly improved, but with win

choly contemplation of the snow,
which had begun to fall In quantity.
The professor talked until luncheon,
throughout luncheon, and was well un-

with talk, when Fred, repenting all
the errors of his life, got up to go.

wind and thickening snow, but finally |
came in sight of the town, not long |
before dark. Here the road led down
into a depression, and, lifting his head |
as he began the slight ascent on the |
other side, Fred was aware of two
figures outlined upon the low ridge
before him. They were dimmed by the
driving snow and their backs were
toward him, but he recognized them

next summer, she's goin' back to that
settlement work in Chicago and work
there amongl those people against our
goin' to war; and here in college she
wants to get everybody she can to talk
