REGULAR OILING
OF CAR SPRINGS
Cleveland Auto School Head
Thinks Neglect Is Often the
Cause of Breakdowns. j
EASY WAY OF LUBRICATION
Put Lifting Jack Under Body of Car
and Spring Leaves Are Separated
by Means of Small Tool-
Prolongs Life of Car.
The reason you feel completely tired
out after a day's ride in one —or
on the other hand, thoroughly re
freshed after a similar trip over prac
tically the same road in another car, is
due to a difference in the action of
the springs of the two cars, says Clyde
H. Pratt, president Of the Cleveland
Automobile School company.
The most Important part of the car's
mechanical construction as far as the
riding qualities are concerned is the
springs. If the reader will take the
trouble to look at the springs of vari
ous cars he (or she) will note that
there are a number of general types of
springs. These may be classed under
various names, .among them full-ellip
tic, semi elliptic, three-quarter elliptic,
cantilever and platform springs being
the most common.
How Springs Are Made.
All springs, regardless of their type,
are made up of a number of separate
layers of flat pieces of spring steel
placed one above the other, short
pieces being In the middle and the
longer ones extending through to the
eyes of the spring. The spring is con
nected to the frame by means of a
spring shackle which is fastened to the
end of the spring by a spring bolt
through the eye.
By watching the springs carefully
when someone else Is teetering the car
up and down you will notice that these
separate leaves slide on each other In
stead of simply bending as most peo
ple suppose. In order to keep the
vibration of the axle from being trans
mitted to the body of the car It is nec
essary to see that the spring leaves
slide easily on each other, and In order
for them to do this there must be a
film of oil between the separate leaves
through their entire length.
Without this oil film these springs
cannot slide without excessive friction,
which means that they will not bend
properly and the spring action instead
of being smooth will be stiff and Jerky,
with the result that the car will ride
hard and the springs are more liable
to break. In fact, most of the broken
springs can be traced to a lack of
proper lubrication of the spring leaves.
Easy Way to Oil.
An easy way to oil these Is to put a
lifting Jack under the body of the car,
so that the weight will be taken off the
springs. The spring leaves are then
easily separated by means of a screw
driver or a small chisel and a little
graphite In oil is easily inserted.
Graphite Is usually used with the oil
in the spring leaves, because the graph
ite does not work out ns quickly as the
oil alone would.
Many Spring Oilers.
There are many different kinds of
spring oilers on the market. Some of
these are good and others are good
oijjy because the spring needs oiling
and these help to call your attention
to it. The spring bolts must also be
oiled practically every day or they
soon wear so the springs work hard
and then at an unexpected moment
break, allowing the car to drop down.
The market also offers many auxil
iary springs and various shock absorb
ers which will very often make quite a
difference in the riding of the car. But
with the Instructions that come with
all of these various attachment, you
will find that one of the very Impor
tant Items which they bring out is to
have your springs thoroughly oiled or
greased before applying the spring
sustaining device,
As you travel around In various
makes of cars you w .11 find that It is
not so much the make of spring or the
type of spring which makes the car
ride easy as it is the proper care and
lubrication of the springs. This more
than anything else will keep your
springs from breaking, making your
car ride easy, cut down your gasoline
consumption and prolong the life ol
the car and tires.
MADE HIS READING THOROUGH
Daniel Webster Seldom Satisfied With
Only One Perusal of a Favorite *
Author.
Daniel Webster was one of the most
earnest and Intelligent of readers all
his life long. Ills favorite authors
were read and reread with a passion
ate fondness. His critical conversa
tions upon the standard poets and
essayists and orators of the English
tongue are still remembered and
quoted by those who were present to
; hear when the mood nnd opportunity
'of discourse were upon him. . . .
, How he came to be so successful and
; Intelligent a reader Is explained In
his autobiography. Whatever lie read,
' he read so often and so earnestly that
he learned to repent It. "We had so
few books." he says, "that to read
them once or twice was nothing; we
thought they were all to be got by
heart." A small circulating library
had been established in the nlghbor
hood by his father and other persons,
' and among the books which he obtain
ed from It was the "Spectator." "I
could not Understand why It was nec
essary that the author of the 'Specta
tor' should take such great pains to
prove that Chevy Chase was a good
story; that was the last thing I doubt
j cd." He tells us, "In those boyish days
there were two things which I did
dearly love. viz.. reading and playing
—passions which did not cense to
struggle when boyhood was over."—

Porter. :
EGYPT'S BOOK OF THE DEAD
Contents Throw Interesting Light on
the Morals of the People of That
Ancient Period.
"Book of the Dead," more properly
called the Hook of the Manifestation
of Light is the name of the most fa
mous book of the ancient Egyptians, ac
cording to the Detroit News. It dates
from the fourth dynasty, 3".' to 8666
B. C, and is written in Egyptian hiero
glyphics. It contains prayers and ex
orcisms for the benefit of the soul on
Its long perilous journeys in the low
er world, ns well as minute Instruc
tions by which it may vanquish the
frightful monsters that will assail It
before reaching the flrst grates of
heaven.
The text of the "Book of the Dead,"
carefully revised and with illustra
tions, was published by M. Edouard
Navllle In 1886 translations also having
appeared in several European lan
guages. The following sentences from
the book, in the soul's defense before
Osiris, are Interesting as throwing
light on Egyptian morals: "I have
not been Intoxicated ; I have not told
secrets; I have not told falsehoods;
I have not defrauded; I have.not slan
dered; I have not caused tears; I have
given food to the hungry, drink to the
thirsty and clothes to the naked."
Brothers Only In Adversity.
Men have never felt themselves to be
brothers in good fortune, in pride, in
ambition in success, in the emotion
born of conquest and of enjoyment of
earthly blessings; but In the face of
danger, in misfortune, in times of trial,
Guglielmo Ferrero writes in the Atlan
tic.
Christianity could bid men to regard
one another and to treat one another
as brothers, because at the same time
It told them that they were weak and
Imperfect creatures, needing to assist
one another and always menaced by
the enemy they held concealed within
themselves. The nineteenth century,
on the contrary told men that they
were brothers, but told them at the
same time that they were destined,
one and all, to be monarch! of the
universe.
And In order to be monarchs of the
universe, men and nations, instead of
embracing like brothers, threw them
selves upon one another, arms in baud.
Concerning Reading.
It was said of Edmund Burke, who
was a great reader and a great thinker
also, that he read every book as if
' lie were never to see it a second time,
aud thus made it his own, a possession
for life. Were his example imitated, 1
much time would be saved that is
spent in recalling things half remem
bered, and In taking up the stitches'
j of lost thoughts. A greater loss than
j that of time would he avoided—the.
I loss of the dignity and power which
j are possessed by him who keeps his
mind tense, active, and wakeful. It
Is very common to give the rule thus:
"Whatever Is worth reading at all .8
worth reading well." If by "well" Is
Intended with the utmost stretch of
attention, it is not literally true; for
there are books which serve for pas
time and amusement, books which can
he run through. —From "Books and
Beading," by Noah Porter.
Tattooing Made an Art.
Tattooing Is an art so old that Its
origin is lost to historical records,
having been practiced when the cave
men went out to club their fellows.
c In the Marquesas islands, the most
distant and most mysterious of South
sen archipelagos, tattooing reached Its
highest development, and there it was
the most beautiful form of art known.
For a man In the Marquesas to
luck the tattooed Stars of Terror upon
bis face, and to have a bare counte
nance, was to be a poltroon and de
' spised by the tribe. Frederick O'Brien
says In the Century Magazine that to
| achieve a fairly complete picture on
; one's body meant many months of in-
J tense suffering and the expenditure of
I much wealth.
