The Advantage of Using f Jj

TUBES do not always make the tire. But 1 iW
a poor tube will often help ruin a good tire. Jl i'l 1 I
Revere Red Tubes are built of layer upon u J I

Already they have brought more motor-

or corns or wood
But woods suitable for lead pencils
are becoming scarcer anr many
manufacturers are turnlne to nnner.
Red cedar and red Juniper, says the
American Forestry association, are
the woods chiefly used In ranking
lean pencils. A hunt Is on for other
kinds of wood that will take the
place of these. In Kast Africa a kind
of cedar has been found with which
experiments are being ninde. The
production In the United Stales Is
snout SO. 000 cases of pencil slats per
ear. j rom encn caso 100 gross of
pencils Is made. This results In about
oim billion pencils of American
grown cedar. Since one-fourth of
this number Is sent to foreign coun
tries, that leaves 750.000.000 pencils
for tho home market, which means
an average of seven pencils per per
son, figuring on th last census.
As far hack as history goes man
has tried to make things to mark
and to set down his thoughts. The
Aztecs and the Pharaoahs had crude
marking devices. As early as 17.10
Kalm. a Swedish naturalist, made
experiments with American cedar. In

I will niver know why I determin
ed at that moment to be a moving
picture actress unless perhaps It was
that at that moment we were passing
the one moving picture theatre of
tno town, a place I had seldom vis
ited because my tvudfa'.her disapproved.
Out in front of this theatre was a
stand of pictures showing a beauti
ful girl pursued by a villian through
rough country. Hoth were on
horses and both were wearing wild
western clothes. Up to that time I
had had no Idea of what line of
work I was going to choose. My de
sires had not reached that far. I
only knew that I must get away.
When I confided to Aunt Virginia
that I Intended to become a moving
picture actress I nearly frightened
her to death.
"Your grandfather will never for
give you. He considers actors,
whether speaking or silent, a trap sot
by the devil to lure mortals within
the portals of hell."
Hut. Aunt Virginia. I want to do
something. I must make a choice
before I go away."
In my romantic ignorance. I
thought I had only to choose. Per
haps had I known what was before
me I would have elected to stay at
home and marry Eddie Montforth.
It la a splendid provision of N'a-
nre that has endowed youth with
that fine courage that comes from
lack of experience," observed Aunt
Virginia rather sadly. "Perause
youth knows nothing of failure It
seems as far away from the realities
as denth itself. If youth thinks
about death at all, its Inevltableness
has a tragic dignity, whleh mav In
trigue yonfh for the moment, while
failure failure from Its very futil
ity Is ridiculous. Look at me!"
Some one has said that ho one
'links of death as coming to him un
il after forty. Life looked rosv and
the way to my desires looked bright
that dav. notwithstanding mv nitv
for Aunt Virginia. Kven when I
looked up Into my aunfa face to find
the tears rolling down her cheeks
my courage did not fall me.
"Strange," she said. . "how every
thing repeats Itself. Your grand
father will never forgive you," she
said again, soberly, and I knew she
mother I never knew. "Grandfath
er, she continued, "insists that the
only disgrace that was ever visited
upon tho first fnmllles of Virginia
came through one of his name."
'What did my mother do that
made my grandfather so ansrv?''
She married your father, mv
child."
Girls do get married" orcaslnn-
Uy. Aunt Virginia." I sugtrested
hoping to ..nrn more.
'They do not marry without the
consent of their nnrents often m
Kast In Virginia. Besides, my dear,
your father was an actor. '
How perfectly splendid! If he
still on the stage? Did I ever bear
of him?"
"I expect not. He left the stage
at the time you were born and your
mother died. He was a leading man,
however, both In England and in
this country. Every one of the old
er theatre goers, on both continents,
has heard of Italph Winston."
I was struck with s sui'den
thought. It had never occured to
me that my name was not Fairfax.
-Virginia Winston!" I exclaimed
rapturously. "Do von vnnw. Aunt
Virginia, I like that name better
than I do Virginia Fairfax. I think
I shall use it In the future."
"Don't, Virginia. The name of
Winston is taboo in this house."
"Tell me the whole story, Aunt
Virginia," I pleaded. Aunt Virginia
looked doubtful and troubled for
some moments. Finally she said:
"My dear child, I believe you should
know the story of your parents, al
though In telling you I am going
directly contrary to your grandfath
er's wishes for the first time In my
life. Your grandfather did not want
your mother to go away to school.
He said that too much education was
ant to spoil a woman, hut she was
determined to go and finally, when
I added my entreaties to hers, she
was allowed to enter the Northery
Seminary. While she was there a
company, In which your father was
leading man, played a summer en
gagement In the city. He was asked
to address the pupils of the school
on the drama.
"I think it was a case of love at
first sight for before he left the town
two months afterward, your father
and mother were married.
"I shall never forget the day that
your grandfather received the let
ter telling him of1 the news. I
thought he was going to have apo
plexy. When he was able to speak
he said, as he handed me the letter:
'Never mention your sister's name
to me again. She is dead.' Then
he went into his study and I did not
see him until the'next day."
"Did he not know that my father
was a great actor and that the whole
Play-going world admired and re
spected him? Who was grandfath
er to Judge by his little narrow
standard?"
"Your grandfather, my dear,
thinks that his Judgements are In
fallible. I do not know whether he
knew anything about your father ex
pect that he was an actor, but I
wrote Immediately to your mother
and all through the year we kept
up- a secret correspondence." i
"Was my mother happy?"
"Just before you came, she
wrote me: 'This year with Ralph
means so muoh to me that If any
thing should happen, Virginia, you
tmiet remember that I would give,
nil the life that I might have had
in the old house with father for It.
It has been perfect. Ralph is al
ways the lover as well as the hus
band. God has been very good to
me, Virginia.'
"Only three days afterward the
letter came from your father saying
that you were horn and that your
mother was dead.
"Father said: 'It Is the punish
ment of God."
" 'What shall I do?" I asked him."
"And what did grandfather Bay to
that. Aunt Virginia?"
