ROCKS DO NOT GROW

Rocks do not grow in the sense that a plant grows. They may increase in size by accretion and they may under go chemical changes. Old seabeds be- ing lifted up become sandstone and limestone; the volcanic ash and lava being strewn over the plains becomes tufa, hard enough for building stone
 The pebbly shore of a river becomes conglomerate. The simple mineral does grow, however, when it takes a crystal form. The sparkling prism of quartz increases from an atom to crystal as large as a forearm by process of addition and assimilation, wonderfully slow, but beautifully reg ular, exactly as ice forms on the window panes.

THE BALEFUL OPAL

That the opal has a baleful in fluence on the lives of some people has been the belief in all ages, and few people care to possess one of these gems. Even Father Mollinger Lpriest-physician of world wide fame, was supporter of the theory of the evil influence of the opal. The vener- able priest had been ilh at the parish house in Allegheny, Pennsylvania, and was being attended by Dr. King, a then noted physician. The two men had been warm personal friends all their lives and the doctor was doing everything possible to bring back to health his priestly friend. He was attending him one night shortly be- fore the priests death, when a glint of light fell upon an opal ornament that the physician was wearing The dying mans gaze rested upon the stone for a moment and then he gasp ed, What ,an opal; it's sure to bring harm to yourself and your friends; why do you wear it"
 The doctor explained that friend had given it to him as a mark of friendship, but the venerable father became more and more excited, and said, If you wear that stone to New York you will never come back alive"
 Nevertheless the doctor wore the gem and returned safe from the city. Calling upon the priest he was pre- sented with a magnificent diamond ring. The doctor was soon called to attend the priest and still wore the opal. As the eyes of the dying man rested upon the ring he said: "Its flashes seem to make me weaker; the stone bodes ill" The priest gradually grew weaker and still gazing upon the gleaming stone his spirit passed out.
 In all ages the gem has been sym bol of good and bad. Worn by some people it is supposed to bring good luck, but to others it bears an evil omen. It is really the only stone that such evil portent attaches.

THREE A WILL
 MAKE WAR ON INSURGENTS
Active Efforts Start in Maryland Against Clubs Withdrawing.

DETROIT, Nov. 6.-(Special)-The executives of the American Automo- bile association have reached the point where they intend launching cam paign against the insurgent clubs and associations that withdrew from the A. A. A. at the annual meeting in St. Loms this year. This is the word sent to officials of the Detroit Automobile club and 10 other affiliated clubs in Michigan.
 The governing body of the A. A. A. the executive board, meets in Wash ington next Wednesday, at which time a plan wlll be outlined for car rying on the campaign. It is the in- tentlon of the A. A. A. to organize state associations and city clubs. At the Washington meeting the Detroit Automobile club will be represented by Captain W. S. Gilbreath, manager, and Thomas P. Henry director, both of whom are executive board mem- bers. MT. Henry also is chairman of the touring board of the A. A. A.
 The Detroit club received state ment last week from MT. o, Eldridge, executive chairman, declaring it was the aim of the organization to form new state associations at once in Maryland, Indiana and Ohio. Off, cials of the Detroit club believe this means the starting of city organiza- tions in Baltimore, Indianapolis and Cleveland. ..'..,.. .-,....
 But one club will be needed in Maryland, as Baltimore isl the only city of consequence in the state. The first move in Indiana probably will be in Indianapolis, the Hoosier capi- tai. The A. A. A. already has three strong clubs in Ohio at Cincinnati Younstown and Canton, so the first move in the Buckeye territory likely will be to start a club in Cleveland.
 Executive Chairman Eldridge said the A. A. A. today has a larger mem bership than it did year ago, even though three states and some indi. vidual clubs withdrew from the ranks This indicates, MT. Eldridge asserted that the old organization is growing steadily all over the country.
 Some attempts have been made in Michigan by the insurgents to draw affiliated clubs away from the A. A 1 A., but without success, every club standing staunchly with the old body In addition to the Detroit Automobile club, there are A. A. A. clubs in Bay City, Saginaw, Flint, Pontiac, Lan' sing, Jackson, Owosso, Ovid and Sault Ste. Marie. In Ann Arbor the De- troit club is operating branch that amounts to practically another state club. About the only successful move b ythe insurgents in Michigan was the taking over of the club in Kalamazoo whic was formed about a year ago. Detroit club officials say, by an indi- vidual who had been expelled from the ranks of the A. A. A.

SUFFICIENT OIL NOT EVERYTHING
Condition of Oil is Thing That Should Not Be Over- looked.

The average motorist usually keeps sufficient amount of oil in his crank case, so that his oil gauge registers between the maximum and minimum limits for his particular car. This is of course good practice but what the oil gauge fails to show, and what is of prime importance, is the condition of the oil that is in the crank case.
 Everyone inserts at more or less regular intervals fresh oil into the crank case, and then forgets all about fabrication until his gauge shows that more oil is needed. At such a time more oil is added, and this phocess continues in most cases until some mechanical adjustment on the motor is necessary, at which time the mech anic working on the car will probably drain the crankcase and refill with fresh oil. Starting at this time the same old cycle is repeated.
 You perhaps will have driven your car a good many hundreds of miles before such thing happens, and blame the trouble to natural wear on the car, because, as you say to the mechanic, q always keep plenty of oil in my car," The question to be considered, however, is not how much oil there is in the car, but how much good oil. The fact that you have been continually adding fresh oil does not necessarily mean that your oil IS in good condition for several reasons.
 In the first place there is always certain amount of road rust drawn into the motor, and some of it is bound to get into the oil. Then. there may be a carbon deposit on the under side fthe cylinder head that cracks and chips off, and from time to time drops small particles in the oil due to metal lie wear, and all these heavy solid par ticles will remain in the crank case until it is draine dand flushed, simply adding fresh oil can not eliminate them, and there they remain, con- tinually wearing on the motor until their work of destruction is complete.
 The foregoing are simply mechani- cal reasons why motor should be regularly drained and flushed, but of course, as in every question involving fabrication, the oil itself must be con sidered. Every oil will eventually break down, and of course some will give out much sooner than others. A blended oil ,say aprt paraffin base, and part asphalt base will not last as long as straight run" oil, that is an oil containing only one basic crude, say paraffin or better yet napthene. When an oil breaks down, or when one of the constituents of blended oil goes, the remaining portion has no Elubricating value what soever, and in fact is apt to be very harmful indeed. Taking these facts into consideration, the conclusion at once follows that at certain definite intervals, every crank case should be drained and flushed.
 However, having decided to take ad- vantage of the above recommendation there is still one vital point that must be considered and that is what to flush the crank case with. This is important, because no matter what flushing medium is used, some of it will always remain in the crank case.

EATS POISON TO SAVE CLIENT

Thirty years ago one of the most important cases ever tried in the courts of Missouri was on trial in Kansas City. A young woman was charged with the death of her elderly
 hubsand by poisoning a cake, of which the old fellow .partook. A chemist had analysed the cake and found it reeling with poison. Judge McSweeney, a famous criminal law yer of southern Michigan, was brought in to defend the young woman. The prosecution introduced damning evil dence against the woman and the case was finally closed and the summing up began. Judge McSweeney calmly reviewed the case from the stand point of the defense, but never ionce alluded to the poisoned cake. Final ly the clerk informed the judge that he had but few more minutes of time. Then the judge picked up the cake, which rested upon the desk of the clerk and broke off chunk of it and began eating it, still talking to the jury. When he had finished he turned and left the room going direct ly to a small room in the courthouse, where he had stationed two physicians with stomach pump, and in a few poisoned cake. The jury, believing. poisoned acke. The jury, believing the evidence of their own eyes, found the defendant not guilty.
 But there are few lawyers willing to take the chances that this old fel- low did in saving his client from the gallows or a long term in prison.
