The Automobile CARE AT DUSK WILL CUT TOLL OK ACCIDENTS. It i» MitI that "reKiilution of street traffic" was on« of the duties indu»- triously ]>«rfori»«<i by Marcus Aurel- <u* Atitonious, Kmperor and Commis- th« driver and his car out of commis- sion for several days perhaps for sev- eral months. Uurrying to get ahead of a train, a street cai- or anotlier ve- aioner of Public Safety of the Roman, hide saves only a nionxnt or two at Kmpire, A.H. 161. Fv«r since those the ultimate destination.

But there is a big difference in re- •pect to volume of fatalities that oc- cur in theue days as contrasted with ful at dusk. There is then neither enough daylight nor hufficiejit artifi- cial light to make objects distinguiKh- able at ordinary distance. Slow up r »>ibllity of any one getting serious :y hurt. Now, however, the man In •n automobile is operating a h«iiv7 •nd powerful vehicle which can read- ily become a medium of considerable mortality. About fifty deaths per day or 18,000 per annum, with 100,000 accldenU that deal out no death, only injuries, In the record of auto fatalities in America. The question that must be aswored is "How can these automo- tive disasters be redui-ed to m mini- mum?" The ansiwer is not so difficult as is the task of getting folks to rec- oiniize the answer and act accord- ingly. The answer to a Inrgo extent is "careful driving." People who oper- ate autootobilea must exercise more care if such accidents are reduced. But there is another answer and that Is, "careful walking." All the respon- sibility for auto accidents cannot be laid up against the drivers. Some ped- estrians are far more reckless than the most reckleu driver.-). They court death by the way in whi.'h they violate traffic rule.s. ONE OP CHIEF KVIL8 One of the chief ovil.s which affect the auto accident situation is drunken- nees. Other causes included reckless driving, speeding, under age, violation of highway law, causinpr accidents, couldn't read signs and wrong plates. If a motorist real'.y clesires to avoid accidents let him consider the follow- ing points: In the first place when go- ing driving he should be .sure his ma- chine is in first-c'.ass condition. That will insure better control in an emerg- ency. Then he can well afford to drive at a moderate rate of speed. A mo- ment or two saved by i-ockleas speed- ing iii not efficiency, fur speeding may result in a smash that will put both Roman Empire tlmee. Then a couple' tor all turns in the rojjd. Blind cor- of charlou might collide with little, nere arc dangerous. When it is im- possible to see what is coming from around the comer be pi-epared to stop. Sound horn a short distance Ijefore reaching the intersectiosi. Use chains vwhenevcr there is dan- ger of skidding. Install chains on both rear wheels or none at aH. One chain is sometimes warse than none. Drive slowly at bridges. A bad rut or a stone in the road may throw a driver's car against the structure. When attempting to pass another ve- hic!e going In the same direction start turning out to the left at least seventy-five feet to the rear. If you get too close your view of the road ahead is obstructed and you may turn directly in front of another car com-1 ing toward you. When you have pass- ' ed a car do not cut back into the road nor slow down too soon. BE CABEFUL WHEN BACKING. Always be careful when backing. Sound your horn,, sitfnal other cars and look back to see where you are going. Mirrors are valuable at .all times. Bumpers also have a safety feature not to be overlooked. Clean wind-shields give the driver a clear view ahead. Every car should have a wind-shield wiper which will pre- vent .snow or rain from obstructing the driver's view. When driving, do not attempt to carry on a conversation with others in the car. Small children should prefer- ably sit in the rear of the car and cer- tainly they should never be held in or between the arms of the driver. Safe driving demands the full and undi- vided attention of the driver. Be sure to signal when driving toward or away from the curb. The tiiiffic officer ha»' a difficult j<^ at the best,- and driv«»r8 should make every effort to assfst him. He is responsible for all accidents which happen at his .station. 1 r r r r â-  â-  r ^ 57 ^ â- r uK' ' " ii "5 I ih P •^ |«v i^ â€" â-  11 11 1 P I i â-  i u H ^ iJ- ST ST â- Â». kX '*'* r H Hb ^Ht m^\ r\ 5f P I â-  â-  w P â€" A W - (>y (A. 1 â-  mS IHTUNATIOMAi IVMDMATC.

What we all need to realUe Is that a good many major aud mluor worries dismiss themselves like a ground mist dispersed by the morning buu when we put and ktiep the bodily uiacUlue In ex- cellunt repair. Mi;ch of the disease of the soul which produces morbid aud lachry- mose mortals Is tho direct outcome of easily rectlfiabla physical conditions. The outlook on life is ilngued by the -••Hy we feel. Our neives react to a proper or Improper regimen of sleep and food. A man who getii lu a tan- trum and flings his job. along with a taunt, in the face of hts employer may be the victim of maladjusimenis In his home life which are not publicly adver- tised. The woman who Is dreaded anioug her neighbors as haviug the tongue of a fiend is like a puppet pull- ed by jangling and Intertwisted wires, moving her to gestures and postures that are really not essential In her na- ture. She does not rule her being; she is the unhappy creature of a physi- cal condition, and when that Is correct- ed, as If by a miracle the trouble dis- appears. A :t)an travelling amid high anow mountains was moved by their majesty and beauty to a sense of their eternal peace and illimitable strength and felt rebuked by a sense of his own llttle- nesa In the worshipful presence of na- ture. But when he came to snowflelds chivalry hae sometblug to do wIiU their promlaence over «H oih«ir article* «t wear in ragard to symbolic use. Uluves adorned wlib rubiae and sap- phires, K.nd perfumed glovea from Spain, were part of the outfita of tb« wealthy people at an early perloi lu our history, and stories of the convay- aoca of polsoh through richly orna- mented gifts of this sort brought with them the ill-omened phrase of "poison- ed gloves." Naturally the poets took an early op- portunity of making a prettier use of this article of apparel, and "O that I were a glove upon that band, that I might touch that cheek!" was only ona of many ooncelta of a similar kind. -^ From thia it was a siiort atep to the granting of a lady's glove to her cava, lier as a symbol cf his cbampions'hip, and the prize of the Queen of Beauty't glove In toirrnaments. The symbolism of the g'.OTe wna used again betv.een men at variance. A common way of provoking ah enemy to a duel was to flick a glove across the face. A glove, too, was sometimes a mark of fealty between friends. Then there was the custom of flinging down a glove to be taken up In defiance, of which the last relic In tbia country was the challenge of the King's Ohani> plon to all aud sundry at a coronation. Another form of syraboliam hgs passed Into our proverbs with Coo- per's "As If the world and they were hand and glove." Again, we bavo tb« / and glaciers the wind blew down bis ! phrasea about "kig-glove diplomacy" tent, snow six days on end whirled aud 'aoj -kid-jiove methods," which may whooped about hlra, the poetry faded out of the landscape. When Shackle- ton's men rowed 800 miles In an open boat across wild Antarctic waters to Klephant Island they lost the beauty of the sea; it became hideous. So our own condition changes the text in our reading of the world. Whether It Is a vale of tears or a hill of s\uirlse depends on our will to be- lieve, our spirit to fool; and tho first thing to do is to put under the life of the soul a corporeal substance that Is an effective agcnU And even a frail body can be made a remarkably good servant by compliance with the rules of the.greate3t of games: tlie thrilling adventure of living a day at a time, though our eyes may contemplate eter- nity. be Bet against that "mailed fl»t" ot which we heard too much In the flrat years of this ceatiu-y.
