Lift off Corns! : . Doesn't hurt a bit and Freezono costs only a few cents. The characteristic musical instrument of the Chinese is a series of bamboo tubes, the longest of which measures about nine' inchekTNnd of which the remainder diminish in length at a regular ratio, each being just the length of the- - one before. This arrangement was devised by the Chinese they say, by the Emperor on the following principle : Huang-T- i Between heaven and earth there is perfect harmony. Now, three is the emblem of heaven and two of etirtli. If theu two pipes or tubes he made in the proportion of three to two, they will harmonize in tone as perfectly as earth and heaven. So the base tube of the instrument was made nine inches long and the second that length, or six inches. Of s course, the third has to be the length of the second, or four Inches; and so on. The result was that the note of the second tube was what we call an interval of a fifth above that of the first, that of the third a fifth above the second, and so on through the whole range. two-thir- who hath never warnd witTT misery, Nor ever tuggd with danger and distress.

The usual way wras to have a mechanic grasp the propeller, and give it a yank downwards, causing the engine to start. This is a very hazardous method, as the suddentiy starting propeller has caused many serious accidents, especially if the mechanic was not alert in jumping out of range of the whirling blades.

LUBRICATION IS VERYJHP0RTAI1T Hard to Induce Mechanics and Drivers to Keep Chassis Oiled as Per Schedule. MAKE REGULAR INSPECTION Several Hours May Be Required to Give Neglected Truck Proper At- tention and Cover All of Most Vital Portions. A good way to add years to the service life of a motortruck and to re duce expensive layups is to make sure that it never lacks lubrication. There are between fifty and a hundred points on a motortruck which require individual lubrication attention. Unfortunately it is not possible to arrange the chassis so that all of these are to be lubricated at the same time since the parts represented by this array nearly all work at different speeds and under wide variations of load. Every manufacturer conscientiously supplies purchasers witli charts showing just where, with what and when to attend to each lubrication job. Yet it seems impossible for most organizations to get their mechanics and drivers to keep the chassis oiled as per schedule. Days for Inspection. The only way this can be done' with certainty is to set aside certain days for the inspection of eacl? vehicle by a mechanic whose sole duty is to seek out the thirsty members and apply the lubricant most to its taste. Armed with a lubrication diagram, perhaps, though this would only be necessary at the start, a large squirt can of oil, another of kerosene to clean out dirty bushings and to free those which may be gummed or stuck, a bucket and gun of dope" or transmission lubricant and a pail or can of cup grease, on the appointed night he will go entirely over the truck. He should pick out a certain place to start the starting crank is a logical place and proceed about the truck, cleaning away the caked mud and dirt and looking at each point keenly. Parts which are found to be in need of lubricant should have .the needed material applied at once and a note made of the need. In his inspection he will test the quality of oil in the engine base, gearbox, differential, etc., as well as merely the quantity present, since It Is necessary to clean When a out old oil periodically. change of oil is needed he will flush out the case with kerosene and All it to the proper level with new, clean oil. It may take several hours to give the proper attention to one badly neglected truck, but if once done properly and conscientiously followed up by periodical subsequent inspections, an energetic mechanic should be uble to act as godfather to three or four vehicles night. Naturally if the fleet is small, this will not be necessary. Once in two weeks Is often enough for each vehicle, the driver being held strictly responsible for all dully lubrication points, such as the fun grease cup, the chitcfil oiler or grease cup, the spring bolts, steering joints, steering knuckles and radius rods. Check on Driver. The report of (he lubrication Inspector serves as a chock on the serve ns nn excellent Index to Die conscientiousness' of drlver--uwLjUou- the driver. Conversely, the drivers should be given every opportunity to. report any complaints garding lubrication of the other parts which may be. necessary to insure diligence on the part of the inspector. In a small fleet the chief mechanic himself may best be intrusted t with this work, otherwise a special man may be detailed. The nature of the work would preclude any elaborate report, so that a manila card with the names of the different oiling points on all the chassis may be jircpured with spaces for check marks by the inspector. A simple code, such as C for change, 0 for lack of oil, D for dirt and R for repair, may he adopted a simple check serving to show that the part was found in good condition. Naturally, when a man goes over a chassis so minutely as to examine each lubrication point he covers all of the vital portions which are liable to become out of order, so that this inspection Is also invaluable in detecting slight derangements which are easily repaired in the incipient stage, but which might go unsuspected in ordinary running until they become so serious as to necessitate a major repair.' INFLATE TIRES ON HOT DAYS Terrific Driving Necessary to Generate Enough Heat to Raise Air Pres-sur- e in Tire. Motorists should again be warm.fi against the notion that the heat of a summer day expands the air inside a tire to such an extent that the tires do not need to be blown up to the same point as in winter. Experiments show that it takes terrific driving at racing speed for a considerable period to generate enough boat to raise the air pres sure in a tire five or six pounds. The expansion in a car driven at an or diiiary rate on a hot summer day is so slight lhat no allowance should be made for it when the tire is pumped up. Motorists would do well in hoi weather to test the air pressure ir their tires every few days to see that the leakage of air has not reduced the pressure to the point where the tire will suffer harm. luses from bottom of feet. , A tiny bottle of Freezone costs little at any drug store; apply a few drops upon the corn or callus.
