Map shows Lyon Park and Cleveland
Park, each three miles from the White
House. But there are two things
which the map does not show! One
of them is the fact that the traffic
IL less congested from the business
section of Washington to Lyon Park
than to Cleveland Park. This means
quicker access from Lyon Park to the
Business section, either by trolley or
auto.

Pocomoke City. - Three negroes
were killed by lightning in an cleo
trical storm here. They were in a
house used for sleeping quarters for
berry pickers on the farm of Frank
Wilmington; in Somerset county. All
three of the victims lived in a negro
settlement about mile from this
town. A baby less than year old,
which one of the victims held in her
arms when the bolt struck her,
escaped unhurt. The negroes, Mary
Johnson, II years old; Roosevelt
Johnson, 81 years old, and Lee Can
non, 4 years old, had taken shelter
from the storm which descended
shortly after three o'clock. The
wooden shack in which the three
negroes sought shelter was undam-
aged by the lightning, not even catch
ing fire at the point where the bolt
struck. The three victims appeared
to have been instantly killed. The
Johnson girl had the baby in her arms
when she was struck; it was I'M

bodies were brought here for burial.

The Home OF The Soul.

In olden times, it was believed that
the seat of the soul was the stomach
most likely for the reason that man
is never so completely used up as
when his stomach is out of order. For
the cure of ordinary stomach troubles
there is nothing quite so prompt and
satisfactory as Chamberlain's Tablets.
They strengthen the stomach and
enable it to perform it's functions nat.

japanese Motor Roads.

To get an idea of the roads which
motor cars have to traverse in Japan,
says Trade Commissioner Irvine of
the Department of Commerce, who
has just returned from an extensive
investigation of automotive markets
in Asia, it is necessary only to bear
in mind that wheeled vehicles We're
introduced into the country less than
100 years ago. Before that time the
broad shoulders of men were used to
transport both freight and passen-
gers. Even horses are very modern
in Japan and are not much used. The
roads of Japan were designed to meet
the conditions of wheelless traffic and
the result is that they are very mar
row and quite inadequate to the COM
Portable use of modern transporta
tion methods. The average width Of
highway is sixteen feet and in many
places it Is less than this. SO that the
passing of another vehicle is "a peril
Gus proceeding, with constant possi-
bility of slipping off the road into a
paddy patch The roads are usually
elevated ten feet above the surround
ing country and skidding off them is
unpleasant to say the least. The
road surface. of river-bed gravel
ground into the porous SOIL is gener-
ally good. as the elevation of the
highway and the nature of the soil
cause them TO be well drained.

part of the county; but now. accord
ing to a report to the Department OF
Commerce from Assistant Trade Com
missioner H. Sorenson, it has evolved
a truck that will do the trick. 1T is
simply an ordinary heavy motor
truck with an extra set OF wide
flanged wheels located alongside the
regular rear wheels and so arranged
that they can be raised or lowered,
according to the condition of the
road. When one pair of wheels gets
stuck the other can be let down into
the snow to give the car the neces-
sary push to get 1t out of difficulty
The arrangement is such that belt
can be strung on the extra wheels,
converting the truck into cater
pillar when it encounters conditions
which make crawling the most prac-
ticable form of locomotion.

by the Cole Motor Car Company. comes
the news that the sales direction for
the company has been taken over by
J. J. Cole. president.
Mr.. Cole, when interviewed at In

the logical step. The revision in
selling policy is SO marked and has
potent!alities so far-reaching that
the responsibility for its operation
naturally rests upon the principal.
This new sales plan is the result
of more than eighteen months of de-
liberation. and definite calculation
based upon analysis of the used-car
situation.
Careful research had revealed not
only the fact that trading in used
! cars had reached the proportion OF
an abuse but had gone so far as to
threaten stability of the whole auto

Bankers refuse TO make adequate

Instead of an inflated allowance,
several hundred dollars above what
a used car is worth in the market,
we cut the red tape and hand the
buyer back from $500 to $1,000 at the
