Speed Pays HE TWENTIETH Century Limited we a half million dollars by its passengers cial report reveals. Traffic is increasing on this famous train, wt days travels in as many as six sections. The “Century,” being a speed creation, is typical of generation in which we live. Three Kansas cyclones restored the lost speech of an Iowa woman, again showing the impossibility of remaining quiet amid Kansas weather Republicans evince a disposition to accept with confidence the pre liminary straw votes, provided it be wheat straw. Supremacy Is Ours RD gets ready to make 10,000 cars a da he’s turning out over four-fifths that many. The best equipped auto works in Europe is supposed to be the Fiat plant in Italy. It cannot make more than 200 cars a day. Young men, in particular, should read this twice. It is typical of the industrial supremacy of America. There are other kinds of supremacy, and in many of them we have room for improvement. Ours, however, is an industrial civilization. Higher art and culture will come later, symp- toms of decay. Already Mr. Addington Bruce, psychologist, warns us against “the cosmetic peril,” which, we take it, is the red peril that has been on so many lips of late. Names—How Come? After John comes William, then James. This is shown by check-up of many city directories. Religious names, from the Bible, exert a great influence when it comes to naming the average child. Just why John leads all other names in popularity should interest the clergy, for it unquestionably indicates a very definite preference, admiration or interest. Once started, of course, names become hereditary. It takes courage to give a child a name that isn’t as common as dandelions. Tt is said that British lawyers are viewing the proceedings in the Loeb-Leopold case “with amazement.” Same here, and that isn’t all. Dusty Above Us N THE air above each square mile of the average city there are 950 tons of dust. So estimates United Stat public health service. This will not surprise any woman who does her own housework. Some 37 per cent of all the automobiles in Cana ers and, from what we know, that is real suffering.

They contain Black Diamond coal and South Prairie coal in equal proportions, and only six per cent asphalt binder, also excellent fuel. We have gone even farther in this analysis. The diagram above shows the ash and moisture separated from the coal to make clear the exact portion which produces pure heat. There is a total of only 2% moisture in Diamond Briquets—and only 10% ash. This is lower moisture and ash content than contained in most coals on this market. The rest of Diamond Briquets—88°>—is pure, dry, heat-pro- ducing substance. As is shown in the diagram, 6% of the entire briquet is asphalt binder; 41% is Black Diamond coal, with not a particle of ash or moisture in it; and 41% is South Prairie coal, minus all ash and moisture. We guarantee that the above is a true analysis of Diamond Briquets, In addition to this guarantee of quality, Diamond Briquets continue to carry a sweeping guarantee of satisfaction or your money back. This means that should you, for any reason, feel that Diamond Briquets do not perform as you think they should in all your household fires, merely notify us and we cheerfully will remove the Diamond Briquets from your bin and prompt- ly refund your entire purchase price.
