It alts around on the rocka that dot the bay and looks exceedingly elderly and disgruntled and misanthropic and ond nou*. If transmigration of soul* happens In the bird world, the ore*> ture la undoubtedly the raven or Polo* nius or both. "Nevermore" la thial bird's middle name and Its philosophy of life. Hungalowlsta around Pplham bay all remember thf> extraordinary aeries of fatalities tlmt occurred last summer in the wake of the bird of ill omen. {! wae nearly June of last1 year when the bird first put in au appearance, looking no leaa acidulous thun it does today. Hardly had the bird'rf peevish face and gray-white feathers first been seen than three fishermen upset their boat One was drowned and the other two wore pulled out barely conscious. Two weeks later, while the evil eye of the bird was atlll on the bay and its inhabitants, came the great storm I which will be remembered as long as anybody Uvea who saw It or was caught In it. ' < . Then came the whale scare which put a crimp in the long-distance swim ming contests. And there came one thing and another. A host of unklll ^able rats overran Chimneysweep Islands, pride of the bay, A swimmer was drowned within fifty yards of a boathouse. The captain, most pictur esque of MOO- pound men and one of the historic figures of the bay, left It flat and emigrated to the Bronx. All because of the bird of III omen, says the Bay.

Bungalowlsta of Pelham feel aure that nothing else but that bird caused the , extremely cold spring ? perhaps even caused t^ie sun to lose its three de grees of heat or whatever the amount. . The, bird doesn't cut up any antics, j you. understand. He? the captain be fore he debited Insisted it was she ? Just sits on a rock, looking more like an 111. otnen than anything you ever saw. Pelham Bay la waiting with some anxiety. AS long as the bird of ill omen sticks around Tt believes with aome reason that anything Is more than lively to happen. Girl a "Pathological Liar." The charge of being a pathological liar, a variety not Jlst.ed, up to (late, In the board of estimate category, saved Miss Harriet ' Russell, 4 twenty seven years old, of the Bronx, from anything worse than a suspended seiv' tence for grand larceny, the New York Herald rejiorts.

There Is practiced In certain places abroad a singular method of making Ice from pure water. A wooden struc ture about 25 feet high and 20 feet square and open at the top and shies Is provided In the center with a tube connected with a water main by which water ran he raised to the top and then sprayed around by a rotating disk. The wafer falls upon two open floors, each consisting of 18 beams widely spaced. one at the top of the structure and one half way down. Freezing weather- being chosen for the operation the water dripping from the beams rapidly forms huge Icicles and In very cold weather the mass of ice thus created sometimes amount/ to 7(*1 j cubic fret in a single night. ?

' * Like all Hupmobiles for 15 years, the new Hupmobile is built of the finest mate rials, and with the finest workmanship. It is as strong and staunch in every part, and functions as near per fection, as human pains taking and ingenuity can accomplish. No matter how much more you pay, you cannot buy a a car that will give you more reliability, longer life, greater durability in every part. The new Hupmobile is deliberately built for the roughest going. It is built to stand up day after day and year after year under conditions that would soon "kill" an average car. This Hupmobile not only gives the most trouble-free service in day afte'- day travef over the roughest roads, but it carries its pas sengers with delightful ease and comfort. Its performance is brilliant. It will give you all the prac tical advantages of aify car, no matter how much higher priced, ? plus a greater re- ' turn on your investment in lower cost per mile. , If you desire a car for extra hard service, or for only the average amount of hard service, you cannot with sound economy afford any car that is not built to the highest standards. On that basis, you can afford the new Hupmobile ? and you will find that it will save you money every day. you own it, and will com mand a higher value when you may desire to re-sell it. GEORGE T.
