KELSEYFRICtlllVE GAR AGENCY NOW IN THIS CITY Will Menaker. a former secretary Of the Y. M. H. A., has been appoint ed distributor for Middlesex county of the new Kelsey friction drive au tomobile and until the permanent show rooms are opened ih this city the headquarters of the new agency will be in the offices of the Perth Amboy Storage Battery Company, at 266 Madison avenue. Mr. Menaker is associated with his tw’o brothers, George and Nicholas, who are dis tributors for Passaic, Union and Hudson counties. The new Kelsey embodies im proved and perfected principles of the friction transmission. Unlike former friction drive cars operated with the friction wheel in the middle of the machine and which transmit ted the power through chains, the Kelsey has the drive shaft direct to the rear axle housing where is lo cated the friction wheel. The wheel is engaged and disengaged against a driving plate at the end of the drive shaft. There Is no gear transmission, an unlimited number of speeds be ing obtainable by merely moving the friction wheel from side to side at will. It Is claimed by the Kelsey Com pany that the friction drive elimin ates all jolts and jars to the car which are unavoidable' with the gear shift type of machine transmission clutch and other moving parts are done away with and the car is made lighter as well as smoother in opera tion. The problem of adequate fric tion. the stumbling block in previous attempts to use the friction drive principle, has been solved satisfac torily, it is said. The Kelseji car power plant Is a six cyinder overhead valve motor of 23 horsepower and is capable of driving the car at a»speed of 55 miles an hour. The car is built in New ark and a new factory is in the course of construction at "ellevllle. on Washington avenue.

Britons at home wear their coats while ploy ing owing to climatic conditions. Wearing them is so much a habit that they feel ill at ease without them. Duncan says he feels too loose in Ills swing without a coat. Vardon and Ray, on their 191*0 tour, stuck to their coats in spite of the heat. Habit plays a mighty big part in athietics.

PLA YGROUND A C TIV1TIES The Pirates of No. 6 playground trimmed their rivals, the Pacers, also of No. 6, in baseball at the Lumber field grounds Thursday, with Paskowski pitching and Hu turi backstopping. They easily swamped them to the tune of 12-3. Pasmussen pitching for the Pacers held the Pirates safe until the last few innings, when a few hits and poor support netted the Pirates 7 runs.

Most Illnesses Are Preventable. The human body has to be heated and fine foods burned inside the body pro duce much waste. All this waste should be removed from the body regularly, thoroughly, daily, by the eliminative organs,—which are the bowels, kid neys, skin, and to some extent the lungs. These should act in harmony —if the bowels are inactive extra effort is required of the others, which easily become deranged. Many medicines will force bowel action temporarily but the after-effects are harmful. Many remedies are adver tised, some of which have proven year after year to be reliable, effici ent, and without harmful action or effect. Take Beecham’s Pills for ex ample. For over 70 years Beech am’s has been a household word all over the world. 70 years of use by all sorts of folks, men, women and even children, have proven first, that Beecham’s Pills do what is claimed for them; second, that they are harmless, do not produce bad effects. Some medicine forces Nature to unnatural action. Other medicines, like those contained in Beecham's Pills assist Nature, act mildly, per suade and hence produce no harmful effects. It is common to find fam ilies in which Beecham’s have been used by several generations, their use handed down from father to soft and from mother to daughter. That’s the best possible recom mendation for any remedy. Every druggist sells Beecham’s, is glad to do so because he knows that their reputation has been won by merit for sick headaches fteechairfs Pills NNIIIlMlINMHMHIHHIMKHINMi League Standings AMERICAN LEAGUE. \V.
