made at speed ranging from 35 to rs

modern touring speeds, between 35

With modern high-powered apto-

1880 Chevrolet Has New
Safety improvements

Evidence Of the manner in wb;c

maps is shown by the many safet,
leaVures incorporated in the new 1896
Chevrolet.
Notable among the safety devices
IN the car are the Chevrolet designed
internal brakes which are new in
their field. Many a motorist has had
the unnerving experience of descend
ing long mountain grade to find
ms brakes becoming less effective
the farther he descends-a failure
known technically as "fadeouto and
due to heat generated between the
brake shoe and drum which warns
the shoe and lessons the contact of
the brake lining with the drum. The
hotter the brakes got, the less effic.
lent they became.
Tests on the General Motors Prov
ing Ground show that fadeout has
been eliminated in the new Chevrolet
brake by a method of construction
known as the "articulated shoe tvnen
"hlch compensates for heat distor-
tion, and assures uniform brakinp
facilities under all conditions of tenn
perature. The wear on the brake
llnlng also is uniform, and assures
tar greater service out of set of
innings than the old type brakes.

.DEVADASI SYSTEM
 RAISES, PROTESTS
Indian Habit of Using. Girls t Clean Temples Played

Trivandrum, Travancore, India Sept. 12 P-Measures to bring about abolition of the Devadasi sys- tenn whereby young girls were dedi- cated to the temples as part of the Hindu ritual have been completed in the state of Travancore. Here after men will take the place of the dancing girls in all the places Of worship.
 Move Planned Elsewhere
 The movement ito purify the temples and save the womanhood of India from a sore eating into the vitals of society" as the reformers call it, is also under way in other parts of India.
 Her highness, Setulakshmi Bayi, Maharani regent of Travancore, has been given the credit of initiative in doing away with the Devadasi tenn pie system which for centuries has been maintained by the state.
 The change was due to a chance visit of her highness to a temple of worship in the course of a tour in South Travancore where there were dancing girls. It was soon after ward that the regent abolished the system of service with instructions that all remuneration the Devadasis have been receiving in money or in kind from pilgrims and other wor- shippers should be continued but that men should be appointed to take the places of the dancing girls,

FEW DAYS REMAIN
 FOR TARIFF BODY HooYers New Commission Must Be Completed By Tuesday

Washington Sept. 12 P1Presi- dent Hoover is to complete before next Tuesday the new tariff commis- sion which is to administer what he considers the outstanding step" of the revised tariff legislation-its < flexible provisions With Henry P. Fletcher of Penn sylvania, as it's chairman, the new commission will supplant the oll upon the expiration on septembef 16 of the ninety day period allotted the president by congress for reor-. ganizing the personnel. The chief executive already has selected, in addition to Chairman Fletcher, Thomas Walker Page of Virginia, d democrat, who was chairman of the commission under President Wilson.
 The names of the other four mem- bers selected are to be announced after weekend conferences with Chairman Fletcher.
 Reports have been Current for some time that the chairman and vice chairman of the present com mission will be retained as mem bers by the chief executive. They are Edgar B. Brossard of Utah, a republican, and Alfred P. Dennis of Maryland, a democrat. Confirma- ton of these reports has been de clined. however, at the White House.
 In accepting recess appointments. now from MT. Hoover, each of the new members must face the senate for confirmation in December.
 Taking full time allowed him un der the law in selecting the sis men, President Hoover has culled through scores of names. He ma1t his most vigorous stand of the en- tire tariff controversy on his demand that the flexible provisions for changing the duties up or down within a range of 50 per cent be re tained, and it is upon them that he must rely to correct any inequal- ities in tariff.

In the glaSSed-in dining nook
in Mona'S apartment, Gary
gazed across into wide, dark
eyes. Between them, tall, thin
stemmed glasses came alive In
the rosy glow Of the shaded
light, and dinner lay half
eaten, wholly forgotten. Dark
ness, studded with an coca
sional star, banked the wide
windows. Far off you could
trace the East River like a
cleaning ribbon, dots Of yellow
light on slow-moving boats, and.
through it all, the feel Of spring.
Mona slid back her chair
and moved toward the window,
a blur Of white against the
shadows. Suddenly, Gary was
at her side.
"It's great that we can go
through with this. You've been
wonderful" He drew the small
shining head against his shoul-
der.
Mona was silent, reached for
his hand and laid it against
her cheek, q little gesture full
Of heart break. Gary tried not
to see.

on the river grew blurred.
They had known, someday, 1t
would come to this. There was
a clause against marriage In
Gary'S contract with the Bur-
rell studios. Their friendship,
because it had been glorified

DIET AND HEALTH
BIZ DR.. Logan CLendening.

"The ordinary diet consisting
Of meats, eggs and cereals, in
cluding bread, produces an acid
ash. If the diet contains in ad-
dition a moderate amount Of
milk, potato, vegetables and
fruits, the acid elements are
neutraliZed. The term acidosis
has become a popular fancy.
The belief that acid ash foods
are responsible for q variety Of
common symptoms such as
stomach hyperacidity, laSsitude,
btliouSneSS, acid mouth, head
aches. nephritis and high blood
pressure carries one far afield.
These symptoms and others Of
similar character are as frc-
quently encountered among pa
tientS whose urines are neutral
or alkaline. Among those who
drink little water concentration
Of the urine with increase Of
acidity is common"
The above quotation is taken
from a recent issue Of the Jour.
nal Of the American Medical
Association.
Copper in the Food
Apparently we need some cop
per in our diet. Hart and his

perhaps, all gay and light
hearted, like their usual eve
nings together. Then, at the
very last a hand clasp, a swift
kiss and a smile to remember.
It appeared as easy as that,
at q distance.
Now, actually faced with the
necessity Of parting. he looked
down at her-Soft, fragrant,
appealing. Suddenly something
in her eyes as they met his
gaze, choked off his breath.
He knew she was right. They
were ready to take their mar
riage vows, for better, for
worse. There was nothin g
against it except that clause
in that beastly contract. What
he felt for her was more bind
ing, more compelling than any
clause in any contract ever
made. He caught her in his
arms, suddenly.
''Now, at the end, I can't give
you UP, I can't. This Is the
night before our wedding, to-
morrow" his words stopped
against the softnesS Of her
mouth. There was q moment
Of embarrassed silence.

months as joyouSly as II there
was to be no parting. They
had planned it all.
They would 60 on caring for
each other, their friendship
growing deeper and mellowing
in the glow Of love. then, when
they reached the point where
they naturally would have mar
ried, they would say goodby.
No waning OF their love, no
regret, no tears to blur their
golden dream. They would
suffer-but, that was life.
"Why-why do you think we
have come to the end?" Gary
asked, a vague uneasiness In
his voice.
Her gaze, too, rested on the
yellow points Of light on the
river.
Because, in the spring q
young mans fancy lightly turns
to thoughts Of love, and maybe
a girl also thinks a little too
much about. about the same
thing" She laughed, her
hands tremulous in his.
"Once we saw in each others
eyes, that vague unrest, the
beauty Of these glorious months
would be lost. You understand
how it could spoil-everything.
We couldn't risk that" There
was a little heart-throb in her
voice. Gary tried not to hear.
''No we mustn't risk that"
his voice echoed.
This, this is like the night
before our wedding" she went
on.
"A strange-weird wedding,

Black-and-white handkerchiefs
have become quite a fashion to

These are particularly lovely in
