When Theodore Roosevelt was po lice commissioner of New York he asked an applicant for a position on the force: “If you were ordered to disperse a mob what would you do?” “Pass around the hat sir,” was the reply.—San Francisco Argonaut. Willing To Wait. “Brother, I have a message for the waiting world, and” - sonorousdy began the horse-faced gent. "Kindly deliver my portion of it as the government controlled telegraph companies do the messages intrusted to them,” interrupted J. Fuller Gloom. “I am entirely willing to wait.”—Kan sas City Star. Cop’s Hard Problem. He had been celebrating his birth day not wisely but too well, and at 2:30 in the morning found himself re clining at full length on the pavement. After he had been dosing for a few moments a policeman came and said: “Here, you must get along home; you can't sleep here. Where d’yer live?” For a momnt there was no reply, then very slowly and indistinctly came: “Watsh that you shay?" “Where do you live—and what’s yer name? ” repeated the policeman. No reply. “Who are you?” shouted the policeman. The bibulous one eyed him sleepily. “Look here, offisher,” he said, “you just go along to No.-and ask if Mr. Smithsh is in. If he’s out, that’s me; but if he’s in, I don’t know who I am.”—Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph He Was Warned. She was a young widow who had just remarried, and hubby number two was causing her much anxiety. "I can not understand why my hus band is so fastidious,” she confessed to a friend. “He scarcely eats any thing. Now, my first husband, who died, used to eat everything 1 cooked for him.” “Did you tell your present husband that?” queried the friend. “Oh, yes! Of course. Why?" “Well, perhaps that is the reason." —London Tib-Bits. » ' !• - f7 Ont of accumulated*capital havfe arisen all the eucceawa i . 1 of industry and applied science, all the comforts and ameli orations of the common lot.

HILL. i i.r The Successful Farmer Raises Bigger Crops and cuts down costs by investment in labor-saving machinery. Good prices for the farmers’ crops en courage new investment, more production and greater prosperity. But the success of agriculture depends on the growth of railroads—the modern beasts of burden that haul the crops to the world’s markets. The railroads—like the farms—increase their output and cut down unit costs by the constant investment of new capital. With fair prices for the work they do, the railroads are able to attract new capital ' for expanding their facilities. Rates high enough to yield a fair return will insure railroad growth, and prevent costly traffic congestion, which invariably results in poorer service at higher cost. National wealth can increase only as our railroads grow. Poor railroad service is dear at any price. No growing country can long pay the price of inadequate transportation facilities. dhfoadmttim&djlA.'

The combination of unusual value in first cost and very low final cost, of course, is a result of Goodyear experience, expertness and care employed as insistently in the making of 30x3-, 30x3Vk- and 31x4-inch tires as it is in the construction of the famous Goodyear Cord Tires used on the highest priced automobiles. For this reason more cars using these small sizes were factory-equipped last year with Goodyear Tires than with any other kind. Get this unusual tire value to enjoy on your Ford, Chevrolet, Dort, Maxwell, or other small car, at the nearest Goodyear Service Station.
