In Fine Tire Making
The reason you are interested in the name on your tire is
hat it identifies the maker, By knowing the maker you can
udge his ideals of manufacture.
The only secret of a super-tire lies in the principles of the
naker. His standards decide 'the quality. For there are no
ecrets in the tire industry.
What you get depends on what is behind the name on your
ire. Brunswick, as you know, means a very old concern,
ealous of its good name. Since 1845 the House of Brunswick
ias been famous the world over for the quality of its products.
The Brunswick Tire Is all that you expect ?and more.
Tour first one will be a revelation. You'll agree that you've
lever known a better. And you'll tell your friends. So spreads
he news among motorists. The Brunswick is the most wel
come tire that ever came to market.
Try one Brunswick Tire. Learn how food a tire can be
uilt. And remember, it costs no more than like-type tires.

alonally used, though not encouraged,
promise* to make the American hobo
look like a umd-hcdraggled soldier
after a long vigil in h eootle>rld(Mi
trench.
This year'a convention, In a sense,
will he niemorablw- inasmuch as the
war has revolutionized the craft of
hoboing and many novel and startling
suggestions as to how to live aud
travel without work will he presented
by scores or delegates, hailing from
every section of the country. "Jungle"
philosophy like wise has undergone a
great change and tfie high coat of llv?
lug has only served to rub a sore laid
open when the hand of Industry durlug
the war reached Into box cars, down
Into the trucks "underneath," combed
the "blind baggage" and pawed over
tiie roofs of sleepers and day coaches
of ten thousand trains.
.War's brutal order to work seared
and burned, It Is true, but It did not
crush the spirit of the hobo cult nor
deprive the hobo of bis wits. The
coming convention will be n parade of
wits, In fact, largely devoted to the
question of "llow to get bv with prices
so high;"
Many u si?h will no up from a thou
sand bosoms when the old order of
things Is mentioned. Five years ago
every hamlet, town and city In Amer
ica had a "Jungle," or conventional ren
dezvous for hoboes, where they could
cook their own "mulligans," "boll up"
and shoot dice' to see whether they
would hop a .train for north, south,
east or west and where they could
evade the surveillance oX the "bulls."
But today things are different. Five
years ago It was tolerably easy to ap
proach the kitchen door, IX the dog was
tied up and the backyard showed no
traces of a wood pile, deliver a remi
niscent tale of home and mother, to the
kindly housewife and come away with
beefsteak, pie and cake. It was easy
Ave years ago to "mooteh" the ordi
nary bucolic sojourner for the price of
meat, potatoes and onions with which
to "stew up" a "mulligan."
And five years ago It was possible
for certain of the hobo gentry to talk
the average restaurant keeper out of a
meal and sidestep the dish pan. Bur
nowadays It appears to the American
hobo that there are but three words
in the lexicon of the average citizen?
"work" and "beat It."
Hoboes are purchasing no nourish
ment In job lots these days. The ap
proved plan Is to band together, each
"Bo" taking a certain territory to can
vass. turiV the "collections" Into a gen
eral fund and buy a calf or a pig on
the hoof, lead the animal to the "Jun
gles" and there prepare the "mulligan."
Down at the South, as Col. Watter
son Would say, the hoboes this year
will find practically, every band turned
against them, every kitchen door
closed tight, for the high cost of living
is holding hilarious carnival In those
parts and the demand for labor Is
greater than ever before.?New York

Speeds at High Altitudes.
According to the exper^neutal data
In the possession of the technical sec
tions of the air service It lias been
found that at a height of 20,000 feet
an engine gives only 4(> per cent of
the power, for which It Is good at srta
level. The great value of the sur
charger now being used with some en
gines lies In Its ability, to make a
motor yield the same power at 120.000
feet that it does in flying at the low
est alt 11 tides. Whereas the I.epere
biplane, recently used by MaJ. Jt. W.
Sehroedcr in itn altitude record flight
of 31.800 feet, with one passenger, is
capable of a speed of 13G-137 miles
per hour at sea level, at 25,000 feet,
where most of the Hlr fighting Is ex
pected to take place in the next war,
the machine equipped with the sur
charge has shown a speed of 134
mile*.

Tliis was unnsnal to those who kuow

reason ramp out:
"I am sitting -still Mk ?? thin." he
confided to one of the company, '*l>#
cause my mother told me to."
Thus having relieved his mind of
the stain of perfect quiet as a volun
tary act. he again relapsed into quiet
