motor of small dimensions, but sur
prising results.
Maxwell Gnrb Changed.
In it's new garb Maxwell should be
more popular than ever. The amaz-
ing success of the engineering prin-
ciples behind the Chrysler car has
encouraged the Maxwell Co. to let
Walter Chrysler give this popular
four the magic touch. The things ne
has accomplished with it rather
change ones ideas about A four
cylinder motor being slave to
vibration.
The new Gardner four. with its
smart lines and balloon tires, is an
other attractive car of this motor
type. Even Hupp is going right along
with it's four as though it had never
built a new factory in order to offer
/ an eight. And to complete the list
of popular fours there is the new
Chevrolet.
This years model offers Duco finish,
airplane metal radiator, dry-plate
clutch, emi-elliptic springs, banjo
type rear axle, incased valves and
many other detailed improvements.
1t is a revelation to the man who
thinks that all the modern things
motorwise are reserved for the higher
priced cars.
Speaking of cone clutches. it is in

models under various names, and on
a large variety of chassis. In deciding
upon one, of these in preference to
a two-door closed car, however, the
matter of chassis value is Just as i'm
portant. After all, it's the car and
not the body. Velie, however. plays
safe by offering you both varieties.
Your trip to the show should in
clude close inspection of the all-steel
body on the four-cylinder Overland.
This Is the beginning of a trend
toward safer closed cars. The main
feature of the all-steel body is that
1t mfnimizes the danger from blind
spots by allowing for narrower posts.
Mention of Overland will serve to
remind you that the four cylinder
car is still on the map despite more
SKIES and eights. The Overland six,
on 112% inch wheelbase with a
multiple disc clutch, a BY L-head
power plant, unit power plant, and
done in the modish two-tone, nodded
streamline body effect is a powerful
attraction to the buyer who is
limited to 81 900. But $5S5, the price
on the four cylinder coupe sedan, also
makes its bid.
Ford and Star shown.
There is the old standby, the Ford,
to lead the fours. Ford is making
several accessories himself and these
are found on various models as
optional equipment at very little ex-
ira. Star has a new motor with
silent front-end drive, removable
valve and tappet guides, aluminium
alloy pistons, vacuum feed and other
features previously associated only
with the higher priced cars.
Durant four has also been mate
rally improved. If you have never
had an explanation of the tubular
backbone" in this car, as well as in
the Star and Flint, it makes a good
subject to start with when consider
ing the car. This backbone is, in

ton. You see them everywhere
Dodge, Buick, Oakland. Oldsmobile,
Velfe, Chandler, Cleveland, Hudson
and Essex. A number of other cars
are really two-door coaches, but they
go by other names Regardless of
what they are called, how they are
painted or what details they offer in
the way of novelty or refinement, one
important fact remains; and you have
to turn to Hudson, the originator of the
idea, in order to understand it,
Hudson wants it plainly understood
that it has always recognized that
there are certain natural limitations
to a coach model where more than
two persons are riding in 1t, and that
1t has broken sales records because
the people bought the chassis first
Essex holds numerous patents on its
chassis, and there are certain fea-
lures of the Hudson motor that make
1t unusually quiet. The Hudson COM
pany believes that people have Sc
lected it's products because of me-
chanical virtues, and not because of
the body arrangement.
Chassis Brings Buyers.
Knowing this, it should be self
evident that the mere name coach"
the chassis the body is mounted on.
A coach on the Dodge, the Cadillac or
the Buick is selected first because
of the chassis. The body is preferred
to some other type by the same
maker usually because it is an op
portunity to enjoy a closed car at
open-car cost The motorist should
not forget that the Hudson people
build a smart passenger sedan,
and that in this case, as well IS in
many others, acquisition of a coach is
but a stepping to ownership of
the best closed model of your favorite
make.

SECRETS
SUCCUMB To
SCIENCE
Prof. w. b. Todd Has Device.
That Measures Heads and
Notes. Capacity

Your skull now holds no secrets
from science. az the result Of re-
cent development of an instrument
for speedy and accurate measure
ment of skull capacity, as an index
Of brain development, it was an,
nounced today by officials of the
Smithsonian Institution.
The instrument was developed by
Professor w. D. Todd, head Of the
department Of anatomy, western
Reserve University, and is being
used for the first time in survey
Of the Indian culture of California.
J. P. Harrington. ethnologist of
the National Museum, has just
reached California, taking with him
one Of the instruments. The new
instrument can be adjusted for. the
measurement of:both living subjects
and skulls.
1 One of the most important meas
urements of living heads, the height
of the skull, has previously been
neglected because of the difficulty
of locating with accuracy the
bregma. or .juncture Of the coronal
and sagittal sutures, If you under
stand what that means, from which
the measurements are taken.
Heretofore the method used has
been to employ calipers. which are
placed in the ear holes. and meas
urement taken to the top of the
head. This method. however, has
been very inaccurate.
Professor Todd's instrument has
an arm which rests on the lowest
point OF the left orbit and insures
a standard system of measurement
for every head. The results OBJ
tanned, it is stated, are often not
flattering.

Good Stories Told of
Famous French Writer

Max O'Rell, the famous French sat

lying on his deathbed. and after the
doctors had informed him that there
was no hope, he wrote: II fear that
I am doomed. The doctors give me q
few months, but believe shall last
longer. At any rate shall try; for
I'd rather wear hat than halo"
Max O'Rell, like all professional
men, was occasionally imposed on with
regard to hospitality, hostesses invit-
ing him to an ''at home" as guest
and then expecting him to perform, In

The Gun Of Paris

Paris, the great gay city, is con-
tanned within cup, says writer in
the Continental edition of the London
Daily Mail. You may discover it one
day perhaps from pleasant roof gar
den amt be suddenly surprised to find
the city so definitely contained.
Wherever you will look there at last
appear the soft green hills peeping so
serenely down upon the welter of life
in the city below. You may even see
the trees on hills, so near are they.
We used to think the city was so big
and spread so far. and the Place de
la Concorde, what mighty space it
was! There even now we see the
dome of the Pantheon, the towers of
Notre Dame, the sudden smoky shoot
of the Eiffel tower. Gigantic things
we used to think them. But row how
easily they are held in the cup of the
laughing hills!

HOUSEHOLD HELPS

The surface of the childs or young

marred by hicks or spilled perfume,

exact size of the top does not show

life of the furniture.
To make old silk dresses have a
new, crisp appearance, sponge with

When house cleaning, use stick
with a notch in the end so that you
can lift picture-cords off the hooks
without stepping UP and down.
For a strong ironing board cover,
use old white window-shades which
have been washed and ironed.
Never put the ivory handles of
knives or forks into hot water as it
causes them to crack and discolor.
Hold in the hand while washing the
blades or prongs.
Fasten loops of strong material to
the corners of the heavy mattress
and it can be handled easily when
it is necessary to turn or remove
it.
When shipping mirror or glass
covered picture, paste narrow strips
of paper across the glass. This
breaks vibrations and prevents
