Truck That Walks.

A German engineer has constructed
a motor truck which does not move on
wheels, but not unlike the Martians
described by II. G. Wells In his "War
of the Worlds" can stride with the
help Of "legs" across deserts and
swamps, can wade "knee-deep" through
rivers, stamp through snowfelds and
step across bitches, and fell tree trunks
and other obstacles in Its path, says a
European dispatch to the Philadelphia
Public Ledger. For this purpose 1t is
furnished with two pairs Of skids, one
Of which always rests on the ground,
while the other Is moving forward with
the load. When walking" normally
Its stride measures about four feet In
length, but like a human being, 1t can
regulate 1t when walking uphill or
when stepping across an obstacle In Its
way. With Its skids, which are ten
feet long, 1t strides along the roads at
q pace Of six miles per hour, or about
twice as fast as an ordinary person
can 20. 1t can 60 backward, turn com
pletely around Its axles without NOV

There Is a marked revival Of cycling
in England. and the cheapest known
form of transport, which has never
really waned In popularity, is finding
additional support by reason Of recent

gentlemen declare that the pursuit OF
cycling is healthier than any other
that muscular effort and regular
breathing, which are the double-har'

Ancient Tortures.

Those who have known the uneasi-
mess of stiff starched high collar VIII
think that the starched run worn Dy
Queen Elizabeth and the ladies' OF her
time must have been the invention OF
a very vain woman. But history
records that those starched collars
were invented by a Spanish contem-
porary Of Queen Bess who wished 10
hide blemish on her neck. She was
clever like the fox who lost his tail
in the trap and wished to get a. tall
less fashion adopted. But she found
women more gullible than the foxes.
According to one historian, woman
who gained notoriety by inventing .
recipe for yellow starch was "after'
wards hanged at Tyburn for another
ccfime." In those days starch was
made from wheat, flour. and bran or
sother grains, and In all colors, such az
white. yellow. purple, blue. or RED.

NEW ROAD MAP OFFERED

Every registered motorist in New
Jersey is being mailed a road nay of
the State with the compliments of
the Standard Oil Company Of New
Jersey. Through routes are distin-
guished from other roads by mark
ings which also distinguish between
first, second and third class roads as
to condition. Mileage between towns
is another well marked and useful
feature. Enough of Pennsylvania
and New York is shown to enable a
tourist to get well started away from
home and a particularly serviceable
feature is a large section showing
and ferry connections between
New Jersey points and the metropoli-
tan area across the Hudson. The
Standard Oil Company contents itself
with brief mention of its motor gaso-
line and Polarine Oil and is putting
out the map primarily as a service
to New Jersey motorists and those
garage men who are unduly harassed
by requests for local road informa-
ton. Any motorist who has failed
to get a copy of this map would do
well to write to the Standard Oil
office at Newark, from which the
maps are being mailed.
