deering of almost endless diversity.
 Many novel and interesting ques- tions are raised in the court, especial ly in suits for infringement of pat ents. The petition of one inventor claims s1,000O00 for the little pocket books of stamps which are sold at every post office. Another claims that as early as 1905 he invented a gliding machine involving the princi- pies upon which every airplane op- erated by the government is con structed and if successful he may recover $10,000,0 900. The sum of $995,- 900 is asked for infringement in the manufacture of torpedoes, and about S30,000,00O for radio apparatus.
 One test case is brought by a saw ings bank to determine the liability of the government for stolen govern ment bonds and coupons, and if suc- cessful will result in other suits which, it is estimated, will swell the governments liability to S150.900,0 900.
 Claims are made for injuries to per l son and property by mail trucks, and reimbursement is claimed by farm CTS for destruction of land and crops by alighting mail planes. Owners of | intoxicating liquors whose supplies have been confiscated by prohibition enforcement agents seek indemnity in money damages.
 In preparation for the disposition
 of such a tremendous accession of new business the court O. claims has so cleared it's dockets that not only
 pending suits but actions based upon these war claims, are Ieceiving i'm mediate attention.

Birmingham Dealers An nounCe Stock Of SerViCeable Automobiles At Bargain Prices

In anticipation of the thousands of out-of-town visitors who will attend Birmignham's first Fall Festival, which begins Monday and continues throughout the week, and encouraged by the brisk buying of used cars dur ing the past week, local used car dealers are vieing with each other to exploit Birmingham as the greatest used car mart in the south.
 "Listings" have been carefully checked by dealers and many of the hundreds of used cars have been re- . ported thoroughly reinspected.
 The dealers are looking forward to heavier buying during this week. Everything is in readiness to offer visiting as well as local prospective purchasers a veritable feast Of really good values-more cars, better cars and better values.
 The classified section Of The Age Herald today contains choice listings of used cars. "The Row" yesterday probable best offerings for the com ing week:

were lighted by electricity. one- tenth by gas and one-third by lamps. Fuel for cooking showed many combinations, but wood was more used than any other fuel. then came coal and oil, coal in win ter and oil in summer, and in one home only corn cobs were used. Sixty-two per cent of the homes had furnaces and 39 stoves.
 Power driven washing machines were in 53 per cent of the homes, and one-fifth of them had hand power machines. Thirty-seven per cent had no washers at all.
 Ten to 15 minutes was the aver age time spent in eating a meal. Forty-five to 50 minutes spent at table brought an apology.
 The versatility of the home maker was shown by one woman who spent her time as follows: "Mending auto top, one hour; baseball, 80 minutes; stocking, 15 minutes"
 As for recreation, there were pic- nics and auto trips and club meet ings. Nearly everyone read some | thing.
 Care of children was listed as work by some women and as recreation by others.

 From the blowing woman to the mother. who, at the end of a hard day, sought her pleasure in listen ing to the music of the birds" the answers tell vivid story of life in Illinois homes. The home maker, extolled by others in song and story, finally has written her own epic, of ficials of the economies association believe.
