If the trolley was not put back on at once, Klnne was to blame. So, for ten long yeaffc, the feud went on. For ten long years John (Dad) Klnne and Samuel J. Jones, as conductor and motorman, operated the same car on the Topeka street railway system. Sometimes they would not speak to each other for weeks at a time.

But neither would take the car out of the barns in the morning without the other. Illness compelled Jones to give up his work for the company, for which he had worked 22 years. For two weeks Kinne, who had worked 29 years for the Topeka company, took the car out every morning with a younger man as motorman. But he couldnt stand It to work without his old partner. He complained that he didnt have Jones to quarrel with.

One morning word came to the car barn superintendent that Dad was sick. A week later he was dead. Jones died. The Topeka street cars stopped tor one minute at the hour set for Jones funeral. Deed: D.

H. Smith, Gen. Agt. NEW AUTO FUEL EVOLVED FROM SUGAR CANE CAPETOWN, August 11. In its seaidi for an alternative motor fuel to petrol the world has the demonstrated commercial success of nat-alite to guide it in' the right direction.

"Natalite (the name denotes its birthplace) is a by-product of the Natal sugar industry which, dentally, has been able to supply the household of South Africa with unlimited qualities of sugar thru-out the war period at fivepence (10 cetns) per pound, and is now oftly raising its price to sixpence (12 cents). It is a volatile spirit, obtained chiefly by distillation of the crushed sugar cane after the sugar mills have finished robbing it of its sweet content; and it has been on the market as a motor fuel 6ince the spring of 1918, when it rescued the motorists of Natal from a petrol famine. The process has really nothing secret or remarkable about it. Much the same sort of power alcohol can be obtained from any vegetable growth. Maize stalks, for instance, are suggested as another promising raw material.

What makes "natalite especially interesting is the fact that it has behind it today the accumulated experience of two years' practical use. Improvements have been made which, if they have not yet resulted in the perfect substitute for petrol, certainly point the way to the production of an efficient motor fuel on a very large scale at a price which certainly ought' to be considerably lowrer than the price of petrol. All along the greatest concern of the industry has been the discovery of a powerful denaturant that is both cheap and in good supply. There are people with depraved tastes to whom anyform ofalcohol is acceptable. If whiskey is 12s 6d a bottle and at the same time difficult to get, they will turn gladly to anything that offefs them an easier and cheaper way of achieving oblivion.

Obviously it becomes impossible for the execise authorities to allow the motor industry to flood the markets with a cheap method of getting drunk at, let ns say, 2s a gallon. It is necessahy to insure that, before motor spirit is sold to the public, it shall be made unpalatable. In recent months a new has been discovered that simplifies matters considerably. This is a petroleum product, Simonsen oil, so efficacious that its presence in industrial alcohol is guaranteed to generate a 3000-horsepower revulsion of feeling in any person foolish enough to drink it. In the last resort there is always, of course, the heroic course of labeling the staff for such as it really Is poison first adding a sufficient quantity of virulent poison to cause instantaneous death and selling it openly as poison, hideously red-labeled.

leaving fools who are still foolish enough to drink any sort of firewater, so long as it has got enough bite, to bear the consequences of their folly.

8-9-14-P EVERETT TRUE BY CONDO The movie managers would be renting half of their theatres for store space, if it werent for the automobile. II It is typical of Americans that they took to the automobile as a matter of course just as they have to the movies and to every other great invention of the last half century. s. And the same thing has happened every time. Taking things as they come is a fine way to foster waste and ex- ing for something that isn't there when they look for it.

III What a man pays for in a tire is quality not a limited number of. miles or the privilege of getting a rebate in case the miles dont come up to the limit. U. S. Tires are guaranteed as to quality with no limitation of mileage And that holds just as good for the small car tire as for the biggest U.
