which certainly lias no connection with

Writing In Harper's. ICIIen N. U
Motte describes a trip through the
lunglo on au Elephant In order to visit
one of tho more remote rulvii
"In about ten minutes," she writes.
?*we found ourselves climbing over the
fallen stones of an Immense temple
that lay* completely burled and over
grown by the forest; So thick was the
foliage that only a dim twHfght pre
vailed. The supreme loneliness of that
tmrled temple, the utter Isolation and
silence that enveloped It, were appal
ling, and our scrambling feet and
tiuslied voices only Intensified tho aw
fal stillness?the silence of centuries.
"The horror and vlndletIveness of
the JuUglol Everywhere giant stones
were overthrown, pushed out of place
ind toppled over In heaps through the
Mnlster vitality of thai deadly tree, the
tree of the ruins. The roots of
this tree begin as Innocent, halrllke
filaments which .Insinuate themselves
through the crevle?\s of the great
stones and slip through tiny openings
and crocks, then grow and develops
with an evil vigor that nothing can
withstand. They never die never are
.Starved <nit these flue.,
The big stones never crush or kill
them. Year by year, century by cen
tury, their fierce strong life Is fostered
by the fierce heat and fierce rains of
the tropics until they overthrow and
lestroy everything in their pathway.
One fearful root that wandered In its
course through ? whole corridor of
mightv carvings was IX) metellw in
length, with the circumference Of an
elephant. And the tree Is useless, too
?Just spongy, porous wood, unfit for
Anything*
"For an hour we wandered through
dim. ruined chambers, scrambled and
climbed over fallen pillars and carv
ings of great beauty and delicate, In
tricate design?all In- utter ruin and
the fig tree of destruction In supreme
controL.jt _was
elephants again and to leave behind
that overwhelmed and evil spot.
"Only the most Important and beau
tiful ruins are being reclaimed from
the forest, those in Angkor Thom, as
well as the Angkor, Wat. These out
lying one! are still left as originally
discovered, buried and smothered by
the everlasting forest. To me they are
far more Interesting in this
setting, choked and swamped by the
mighty growth of the tropical Jungle.
They afford more thrills to me who am
not an archeologlst than the P1**?
up, restored and cleared ruins that
the government is reclaiming.
"Of course, one cannot see thern verj
well, these buried temples, swamped
In undergrowth, enveloped by a tw -
light gloom. And as I scramble over
fallen images, over barbaric sculp
tures, my mind is largely set on ser
pents. And when we reach a fairly
open space it turns to monkeys the
agile black gibbons that hoot and leap
oyerhead at our coming, furious at the
Intrusion upon their solitude. Between
snakes and .monkeys there are times
when I forget to admire these old
temples, supposed to be among the
most fnarvelous in the world."
~~T Marshal FocU'? Cane.
From the first days of the war
Marshal Foch always carried a dap
per stick with him. There Is an In
teresting story connected with the
cane that the head of the allied
armies regarded so necessary. It.
was carved for him in the early days
of the war by one of his beloved
pollus of the trenches," says the
Home Sector, the ex-soldiers weekly,
-since which time. If reports are true.
It has nver left his side. It has made
itself useful-as well, as ornamental on
occasions, and there Is a legend that
It was used to map out the great
ntrokes and counter-strokes of the
summer and fall of 1018 by which the
war was ended."

The Car Problem is "Gas"
HO^
SOLVES IT
GASOLINE is steadily going
down in grade. Motor
car engineers are much
concerned. Some have found a
remedy by accepting the Chal'
mers principle of Hot Spot and
RamVhorn.
For this principle has supplied
the answer to trie problem of
"gas."
Hot Spot transforms the raw,
inferior "gas" into a fine fuel, sim
ply by "breaking up" the particles
into a "cloud."
RamVhorn, minus abrupt
sharp corners, short in length and
ingeniously designed, makes the
distance "gas" travels from Hot
Spot to each cylinder equal.
At a velocity estimated at 100
miles an hour the "gas cloud" is
rushed through RamVhorn and
the results are marked:
Quick starting
Power
r Smooth action -?- - '
Spark plugs seldom foul
Absence of engine troubles
suck as burned bearings and
scored cylinders.
The sum of results from Hot
Spot and RamVhorn looms large
in your mind once you become
a Chalmers owner
and you, too, will
say Chalmers is
one of the few
great cars of the
world.
