LACK OF OIL RUINS STARTER
Lack of fabrication May Cause Bear
ings to Become Dry, Overhead
and Finally Seize.

A starting motor in good condition
will respond instantly whenever it is
desired to crank the engine, and will
continue efficiently the crnnking oper-
alton as long as 1t receives current
from the battery. Lack Of attention,
however especially in regard to lubri-
cation, may cause bearings of the
starter to become dry, overhead and
finally seize. This trouble may not be
noticeable during a previous use, but
on attempting to again crank the en-
gine the starter refuses to revolve. No
amount of pressure on the switch but
ton will move the starter armature
until the bearing has been cooled and
properly fabricated. These bearings
require but little oil, but should re-
ceive definite amount regularly.

Deck Falls on Harding Convoy.

Point Pleasant, Ohio.-Two people
were injured aboard the Island
Queen when the forward portion of
the third deck crashed as the steamer
was passing New Richmond. Only a
timely half minutes warning after
the first clash in which the deck sank
a foot before it completely gave way
probably prevented a serious catas-
trophe. The Island Queen was one
of the steamers in the flotilla carrying
President Harding to Point Pleasant
to the Grant celebration. The Presi-
dent was not on the Island Queen.

Their Allotted Work Done.

Now and then Sir Ernest Shackle-
ton found it necessary to do odd jobs
far removed from the field of Ant
arctic exploration. While his old chief,
Captain Scott, was fighting his way
home from the South pole, only to die
in a tent ii few miles from his food
depot, Shackleton was cigarette
maker in New York. A minute or two
after the cables flashed the news of
Scott's disaster an Evening Post re-
porte called Shackleton by telephone
ut his tiny factory in Fifth avenue.
Shackleton was the one man in New
York who knew Scott well, and his
voice broke when he heard the news.
81 can't believe he is gone" he said.
He asked for details, and not until
they were Forthcoming did he accept
the truth of the report. Now Sha ckle-
ton. too, is gone, and the Antarctic has
added one more name to its roll of
gallant dead.-New York Evening

Many modern cars are fitted with a

distributor arm is removable. By re-

it possible to steal his vehicle only by
towing 1t away or by fitting another
distributing arm. The arm may be
removed simply by unclasping the dis
tribution cover to which wires are at
tached. 1t usually happens that there
is only one way in which this arm
will fit, so that there need be no

New Orleans, La.-As a result of
breaking of the levee of the Mississippi
river near Ferriday, La, eight or ten
small communities as far north as
Sicily Island, along the Missouri Pa
cific railway, are inundated. The towns
of Pamela, Junks, Clayton and other
communities are under twenty feet of
water.
Train crews have removed from the
stricken area all men, women and chill
dren who could be reached.
Natchez, Miss.-Fifty or more fam
lilies are occupying railroad box cars
and improvised houses at Sicily Island.
Rescue workers report that at least
three-fourths of Concordia and Cata-
houla parishes are inundated. Power
boats were sent from Natchez to
Junks, La, to aid in rescuing marooned
women and children.
The village is fifteen feet under wa
ter in places. The force of the flood
waters from the crevasse was so great
that houses were swept away, they re-
ported.
Reports from Newellson, La, stated
the situation at the Lone levee on the
line of Tensas and Madison parishes
was extremely critical but that a des-
perate fight was being made to hold
the line. Almost daily sloughing has
taken place on this levee for the past
week. More than 1000 men have been
stationed at this point
AtlGnta1 Ga.-More than 1000 flood

days before his death.
The body was placed IN plain

four horses, to the railway station,
nine miles away. The tails and
names of the animals were plated

wagon and horses were conveyed to
Romsey, near Southampton. Here
the coffin was again placed on the
wagon and conveyed to Minsted, the

CHAPTER II.
The secret-servIce Men

The next morning Rutherford arose
with his determination of the night
strengthened into immediate action.
Whether or not Mrs. Talcott confided
in him, or would even be grateful for
his help, he felt that he must look
after her interests. She must be pro-
tected-even her invalid husband
would commend him in that, he v1r-
tuously told himself.
Full of his project, he sauntered
around the ship, seeking the disturb
ing owner of the veil, and at last was
rewarded by seeing her, seated de-
murely in the library, looking through
the pages of a cumbersome volume.
But the smart, simple blue hat, with
its long quill gave Craig sufficient ex-
cuse to enter and interrupt her labors.
He glanced at the book. 1t was a
New York directory.
"Thank you," she said simply as
Craig reached over to take the bulky
volume out of her hands. His hands
breath caught in his throat as he saw
the rich color surge softly up under
the clear skin of her cheeks. Then,
with the defensive instinct of woman
kind. her eyes flashed quick glances
about the room. to see who had OBJ
served her blushing.
The look was like wine to Ruther-
ford. 1t meant that she was not
ashamed to reveal an interest in him
and had no fear of the use to which he
might put it, but was careful of the
Interpretation that strangers might
give it.
Keenly sensitive on her account,
wildly happy on his own, Craig's
glance followed hers here and there in
the room. A pair of piercing gray
