But on | the road | me, The road from Kingston to Par- [ham is mostly a prototype of the {famous "rocky road to Dublin", and {when almost pitch darkness is add- {ed to this natural handicap, naviga- {tion for motor cars fis exceedingly difficult, to say the least. The driv {ers of the two cars carrying the dig- nifled, and for some time blissful, |ofticials, soon lost their bearing; and finally, in the midst of a gloomy |valley, with rocky and dismal-look- {Ing hills on every hand, the party came to a halt for a council of war. | The unanimous decision, which Iwas reached after some lively ar- |guments, was that they were 'lost- ed--and many miles from home.' | Everyone registered distress, but |there was no help for it. Practically | no panic ensued, in spite of the grave !situation, though many of those pre- {sent who belonged to the illustrious {fraternity of matrimonial longshore- men, had grave doubts concerning [their chances to explain matters to | friend wife.

They stopped at scattered farm-houses, {and aroused sty farmers, {chesty dogs, all of whom appeared [to he very much in favor of the sug- | gestion set forth by the above- | mentioned stalwart. In fact, one |native, who was asked the way to Kingston, tried to put the motorists them questing to go to night. as the dawn of another day was breaking the motorists hove in sight of a well-known village a few miles from the city, and then all was plain sailing. As one of the party sadly remarked later. "Its a great life if you don't weaken--but there's great danger of weakening." GIVE OU7 RESULTS, Of Lower School Examinations At ; Athens. .

Honesty has been the guiding policy of The Salada Tea Company since 1892, when the business was founded. Honest Quality, Honest Value, and Honest Representation through advertisements, have com- bined to make more people use "SA- LADA" tea daily than any other tea sold in North America. If you do not use it now, a trial package from your grocer will convince you that it is the most delicious tea on the market. 4sk for it to-day.
