People sometimes wonder if the
rings seen at times near the sun and
moon signify any change in the wea-
ther. These rings are observed only
when there is a thin veil of cloud in
the sky and usually-abOut three or
four times out of five-rain or snow
will occur within "a hours. The dip,
or tipping, of the moon, contrary~to
DopuIar belief, has no weather sig
nificance whatever; this is simply
an astronomical occurrence that
can be forecast accurately hundreds
of years ahead.

As warm weather approaches,
keep only a small supply of cereal
foods. such as breakfast cereals,
flour. rice, corn meal, and so on, in
the pantry, and keep these in tight
lyI closed glass or tin containers.
Any chance weevil eggs in these
foods develop quickly in warm wea-
ther. but with these precautions,
will only affect the cOntainer where
thew originate. Otherwise they may
spread throughout the food supplies.
If you are closing a house for the
summer, dispose of all cereal foods
left on hand.

When fitting a garment, try the
seams in different positions, espec-
tally those of the shoulder. Study
the figure to find the position which
will emphasize the best features and
conceal those which are not so good.
It is better to put the attention on
the fitting of the figure. rather than

The apparently mysterious occur
renee of rain at temperatures below
freezing is explained by the fact
that there is sometimes a thin lay
or of cold air on the earth with a
much warmer layer above it. Rain
may get through this thin layer of

FIRST CUT IS MADE IN PORCUPINE CAMP;
 PROSPECT IS GOOD

Hydraulic mining operations are progressing satisfactorily on the Porcupine group owned and oper- ated by August Fritsche, according to Peter Layton. well-known local man, who returned here this week after several months spent at the Porcupine camp. One fair-sized cut had been made and sluiced through the boxes before he left about the middle of this month.
 While MT. Fritsche did not an- nounce the returns from the cut. men on the ground reported the dirt to be fairly good with occa- sional nuggets as high as S5 i'll value. A seccm cut is now be- ing made in which it was said that pay is running better than in the first cleanup. MT. Layton said that the camp gave every promise of being profitable.

MONEY ONLY A TOOL FOR
WORK, SAYS HENRY FORD

Money, as it is considered in the
accepted sense, holds little further
interest for Henry Ford, the indus
trial genius revealed recently in an
interview published in The Ameri-
can Magazine.
'YOu say am already successful -
said Ford. 81 am not, except as an
assembler of tools. The failure is
that man who, with his tools at
hand, locks them away and stops
work. Money is but a tool. AS soon
as it becomes other than that in use
it is a menace"
Ford does not consider that he has
built a large private fortune, despite
the fact that his money in the bank,
after the new car was produced, to-
tailed $250,0OO,OOO.
HE refuses even to regard him
self as a rich man." says the maga-
zine. "The simple fact is that he
doesn't think in terms of money any
more than he thinks in terms of
coal. His coal pile and his money
pile are in the same category; they
are the raw materials of industry"
"It would be easy to quit" Ford
said. 81 could take few thousand
dollars and live comfortably for the
rest of my life, in fact as well as
live now"
The motor magnate. the magazine
says, doesn't spend $25,OOO a year on
himself and family. And there is no
pomp and ceremony in his home.

Tail Lights

Out of the 100000 automobiles
on our highways, according to the
American Automobile Association,
only little more than a million
have properly adjusted headlights.
Here is an appalling indictment
against the American motorist for
his negligence of one Of the most
important safety factors Ill motor
ing. Even more than negligence,
there is an apparent indifference to
this subject of driving.
Who of us, when buying a new
car, ever think of testing our head
lights in the process of inspection
before the purchase? A daylight
drive up a steep hill and the car
is either bought or rejected.
The lights must take care Of
themselves. Yet they, above all
things on the car, need adjustment
and focusing ever so often, because
the roads unevenness jars them out
of true.
The A. A. A. is in the midst of a
campaign to have motorists focus
and adjust their headlamps. Do
this tonight. It is a simple oper-
ation-merely the turn of a screw
in back of each lamp for focusing,
and fitting of each lamp up or down
for adjustment.

to Devices.

While the Importance Of safety in
an automobile cannot be measured
in dollars and cents, there is a yard
stick-and a highly scientific one
for determining the value of safety
and the relative safety of different
makes of cars. This yardstick, a
dollars and cents one, is figured at
the desks of insurance actuaries,
and the results of their calculations
find their way in the computation
of insurance premiums.
Stutz owners pay only half as
much as owners of other motor cars
for protection by Lloyd's of London,
the largest insurance carriers in the
world. And in addition premiums
on other insurable items are cut 20
to SO 1-3 per cent.
