If he isn't the people soon find it out and bar him from their list of business houses. All that the Casper merchants are asking today they have a ‘right to ask—a square deal that ‘will give them an opportunity to present their goods to their Casper customers in competition with outside firms. Cas- per business men are not afraid of competition, They thrive on. it. Neither are they afraid of “bargains” which may be presented by outsiders for they know that they can match these bargains. It may not always be possible to meet a particular price but when quality and price are both considered by the- prospective pur- chaser there is no doubt which way » will decide when it comes to mak: ing the pv ase, for the Casper merehant can win hands down. Buy at home! Once ‘again the pune sounds this cry which is echoed in the hearts of all who have the community spirit which should be possessed by every Casper citizen. the majority of Casperites, fortun- ately, do buy at home, but there are still some who are under the de- usion that they ure doing better business to trade at mail order houses.

Whereas the purveyors of whis- champagnes and wines to }the ggling trade have to be content with a profit of between 100 and 200 per cent on a cargo, Captain Dunphy was disposing of the last of a cargo of rum, for which he paid $7,000 and which he expected to sell for $50,000 u clear profit of better than 600 per cent. ke smu Captain Dunphy is’ kriown as the “rum king" of Cape Breton. It is certain that he has the bulk of the rum trade in his hands. And he mo- destly admits that he expects to_salt away a million dollars in the next two years, but take it from Captain Dunphy, the rum business is not all beer and skittles. Not even Columbus, when he put out his cockle shells, took any great? er chances that Captain Dunphy did establishing himself as czar of the rum tradi He observed that St. Pierre Miquelon rum, which the most of the rim sel were han dling, had »or flavor, Nova Sco tlans like their rum, but they were turning to moonshine her than drink the St. Pierre rum. So Captain Dunphy resolved to, get them a cargo of the real stuff. Accordingly, he put out April 15— first vessel to clear this sprin Demerara, British Guinla, the frum that js rum.

In pracically all battery. ignition systems, the pri- mary current from the ignition switch flows through the interrupt- er armi,,across the contact points, and then to the ground. The rapid breaking’ of ‘the ‘contact points in- duces a high tension current in. the coll whith is delivered by the dis: tributor to the respective cylinders. A loose contact at this point is therefore a loose connection in the primary. circuit and will cause the same troubles as would be caused by looseness in any other part. Er- ratic ignition is the inevitable fre- sult. Again, the condenser js al- ways connected directly across the contact points, absorbing the ex- cess current which. would otherwise tend to “flow across the points and thereby decrease the intensity of the spark delivered to the piugs. A loose connectiog in the inter. rupter arm is therefore a loose con- nectiorr in the condetiser circuit and the result is that much arcing and burning \of the contact points takes place. The writer has in mind car owners who have been troubled in this manner. At times, the car would run fairly well; at others, ‘it was alniost impossible to start. The running was always erratic, how- ever, the car often stopping at the ton displacements and car weighis,| which keeps BOUND TO CAUSE GRIEF =: SUNDAY, AUGUST 24, 1924. ended aii ignition troubles for some sign of-condenser trouble, Sefrdes = Fe time to come.—Automobile Digest. pubes or sey a fact which, had jt been borne in mind, wor have given a clue. z Upon inspection, the contact point By far the most comprehensive om Was found to be loose in the inter-| lection of insects in the world is that rupter arm and when ~ remedied,' possessed by the British Museum, ‘™most inopportune times.
