Friction Drive
The Cartercar friction transmission,
with chail-in-oil drive, is not subject to
the many griefs and ills of the ordinary
gear transmission. It also eliminates
clutch, universal joints and bevel gear
drive. There are just two principal work
ing units. The extreme simplicity carries with it
great economy. The Cartercar glides away like an
aeroplane, without a sound or a jar.
The old-fashioned sliding gear trans- f
mission is extravagant in construction, ex
pensive in maintenance and untrustworthy
in performance. It limits its user gener
ally to three forward speeds, costs as much
for lubrication, with the necessary clutch
and universal joints, as the entire up-keep of the
Cartercar Friction Drive, and is much more noisy.

Several months ago there was
Hied in the district court a case
for slander embodying some very
sensational charges by the plain
tiff, Frederick Wagener, but the
case was put over until Ihe next
term of court ami may never be
brought to trial. Yeslerday Weg
ener tiled two more suits in the
court, asking for $5,000 damages
against John (Sroup and J. Otis
Ward, residents of Louisville, for
remarks that have caused him
great mental anguish and which
he claims reflected on his chasily
and morality. The allegations of
the plaintiff are quite lengthy, and
if the cases are ever brought lo
trial they will certainly prove very
interesting to Ibe lovers of the
sensational. The plaintiff is also
a resident of Louisville and has
had much trouble in that village
with various parlies arising out
of remarks which he alleges they
made concerning llie cause nf his
sickness and poor health and
which reflected greatly on bis
reputation as a family man.

much appreciated by the members
of Ihe society and their invited

The residents on North Sixth
street have hit on a plan that
seems to work very well in getting
rid of the dandelion pest. Yester
day the teacher of the First ward
school was interviewed in regard
to securing the services of the
scholars after school in extermin
ating the little yellow pests. The
children went after the matter in
earnest, ami as a result of the
campaign that section of the city
has been pretty well cleared up.
The citizens, to stimulate the in
terest in Ihe crusade, offered the
price of 10 cents a thousand for
all the dandelions brought in, and
some of Ihe children realized a
high as 50 cents from their ef
forts, and although the price of
fered seems rather high, still Ihe
result of the fight will he very
beneficial in saving the grass and
beautiful lawns in I hat section
from llie encroachment of Ihe
post.
This is the time of year when
I hey are blossoming lo get after
Ibe dandelions bofore ihey are
scattered over the entire country
by Ihe fleecy seeds which will soon
follow Ihe blossoms. The idea of
employing the school children in
this work has been tried in sev
eral eastern cities and has been
very successful and the results
more than gratifying, and if the
other localities in tho city were
to follow the example of the
North Sixth street people there
will be a greatly reduced crop of
Ihe plants to make life a burden
for the owners of grass plots.
