Belled Donkeys Draw
 Caudy SiciIian Carts

BAGHERIA, Sicily, Dec. 23- = The gaudier plumes one puts on donkey's head the more bells one can string on his harness, and the gayer the painted cart he draws the more work he will do

 But the carts the donkeys draw are giddier still. In bright reds, yellows and blues, all the history of the New Testament, the island of Sicily and the House of Savoy are depicted on the sides and tail boards. And if the owner be pros- porous enough to add few saints with gilded halos to his carts adornment he thinks it no more than fair that his heather part ner, the donkey, should carry a bit more of load.

Traffic Violators
 Get Courtesy Cards

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 23-Visit- ing motorists in Indianapolis no longer get tickets summoning them curtly to court when they violate traffic rules. Instead, the police hand them a courtesy card"
 The card extends a welcome to the stranger, tells him in nice language that Indianapolis is glad to have him in the city and hopes he will enjoy his visit and come again.
 As an afterthought, the card lists the traffic violations of which the motorist is guilty and suggests that he call at the Hoos- fer Motor Club and get a visitors emblem for his car and copy of the Indianapolis traffic regula- tions.

Mr.. Williams plans for the con-

FIERY, ITCHY SKIN
QUICKLY SOOTHED
BY THIS SULPHUR

Mentho.S Sulphur, a pleasant cream,
will soothe and heai skin that is irri-
tated or broken out, with eczema; that
is covered with ugly rash or pimples,
or is rough or dry. Nothing subdues
fiery skin eruptions so quickly, says a
noted skin specialist.
The moment this sulphur preparation
is applied the itching stops and after
two or three applications, the eczema
is gone and the skin is delightfully."- clear
and smooth. Sulphur is so precious as
a skin remedy because It destroys the
parasites that cause the burning, itch
ing or Disagreement. Mentho-S Sulphur
always heals eczema right up.
A small jar of Rowles MenthO-Sul
phur may be had at any good drug
store.

HIGHER SPEED FOR FREIGHT
TRAINS.

Further speeding up of the nations
freight service is indicated in a gov
eminent report just released covering
the results of railway operation for
tn first six months of the year. Ac-
cording to this statement, freight
trains on our railways are now being
run at an average speed of 1872 miles
per hour. This figure is not the ac-
tual running speed, of course, but in
cludes all stops for picking up and
setting out cars, time spent in load
ing and unloading merchandise pack
ages, time spent in switching at sta
tions, etc. In the same months of
last year, the average speed Of freight
trains was 1910 miles an hour.
The Improvement which has been
made in recent years In average
freight train speed is apparent when
it is realized that in 1920 the aver
age movement was 1913 miles ar
hour. The present record Of 12.z
miles an hour thus represents an in.
grease of IL per cent in the average
speed with which freight trains arr
moved.
