RAjNN . ! ! < I I THE ELECTRIC BELT THE electric belt Is a substitute for the mustard plaster and can l>e removed without taking any of the patient with it j From the earliest days of thls reunhiin the? mnstnrd nlaster has been xelied upon to extract shooting pains from the interior of man's anatomy. It was always applied by some faithJul wife who mixed the plaster with ier own hands, in order that there ? might be plenty of mustard therein, sod all that a suffering husband had to do was allow the plaster to sit down on his stomach and draw the pain to the surface. It is an uncanny sensation to have a stout mustard plaster with long teeth grasp hold of b vital organ and maul it Into a state of helpless submission, and many a patient has preferred to die with his cuticle Intact rather than pass through such an ordeal. The electric belt, however, has forever done away with the mustard plaster and its murderous instincts. GUINEAS ? You'RE i USWG NOfce. EUcTfticiTV THAN A 7?

Columbia, Sept. 14.?Rules govI erning the speed of motor trucks ' and the operation of trucks and ' cars and general highway regula| j tiosn are being prepared by the State , Highway Department, following a ? 'conference* with members of the > | South Carolina automotive associa-( jtion in Columbia Thursday. These j egulations are to be printed in I 'book form and distributed to all car ? I owners, along with the 1921 license '[plates. The recommendations of the ' I 4? - "? will krt VlQQIC nf auoumuLive men win uc w? v. f the regulations. The automotive men suggested,; 1 and the suggestion will probably be i the new rule, that the speed of motor trucks with pneumatic tires 1 be twenty miles an hour; that J trucks with hard tires be 15 miles ) an hour,; the speed of automobiles I is fixed by statute. I -* The auto men also suggested to i the highway department that every motor truck using the public highway be required to carry a mirror attached to the wind shield, so that f the driver can see vehicles ap| proaching from the rear.

Dimmers must be used at night when other cars approach within 5 two hundred feet. When cars are | ! not equipped with dimmers but with ; other devices, such as lowering light ' or spot light, the light must fall 1 iwithin four feet of the ground at a I | distance of two hundred feet. I I The weight of trucks is also to be i regulated. The auto men have sug-' - gested that a two-ton truck have 1 twenty-two inches of tires at least,' r ! . four inch tires fore and seven inch - i res o:i 'he rer-r wheels. 'Ihi? "load an*!

The first of the Chicago planes to operate under the new schedule left here at 6 o'clock this morning for San Francisco,' piloted by J. P. Christensen. Each plane will carry 800 pounds of mail. NAVY YARD FORCES REDUCED 25 PER CENT ~'?? I Washington, Sept. 14.?A reduction of 25 per cent in the navy yard forces will be necessary unless the machinists accept the five per cent wage increase awarded , naval employes, Secretary Daniels said today. He explained that a lack of funds would manage this course imperative. Mr. Daniels received today a delegation of machinists, who presented their contention that the Saturday half day prdvision in the new wage schedule would mean an actual decrease in the wages of many employers. The secretary said he had not figured out the actual effect of the Saturday half day on wages, hnt that he did not see how !anv oth er award could be made unless the yard forces were materially decreased. It has been humorously suggested that by living so long Mme. Sarah Bernhardt, the eminent French actress, is defeating her own ends, for she has already tested her coffin by sleeping in it, and some thirty years; ago she had a tomb erected for her-J self in Pere Lachaise cemetery in Pa-j ris.
