Conquering Nature Looking upon Niagara Falls one man said "What a Viw!" and another exclaimed "What a waste!" Which ws it to be? In this one instance the stupendous water fall has been preserved in almost its pristine grandeur while engineers have harnessed its power for the inaiiii- ' facturc of commercial power. IHit many of the world's natural wonders and primeval panoramas have fared less .foHunately in the eternal war with man's science and com mercial advance. : J The conflict between beauty and power in nature is the mfctive for the calling of a world .power conference in Lon don. At this conference the best engineers, chemists and . inventors the world has to offer are discussing that old nnjd fascinating subject how to harness sources of power that have hitherto remained as intractable as the zebra nd the electricity of the air. As medieval alchemists tolled to convert base metal into gold so the Tendon con- j ferees are seeking a way to turn the sun ray and the f ine meeting in Ionrion, Ihcreloro, is in a measure an ! indignation meeting of conspirators against nature who are ; resolved that she shall no longer defraud man kind of a birthright' to certain unutilized sources of .power. The plut Iters arc passing in review such ' uncontrolled mainsprings ;oi energy as "The Valley of a Thousand Smokes" in Alaska, 1 the geysers of Iceland or the Yellowstone the steam springs :o Tuscany. Why, they ask, should volcanoes do nothing 'bill ruin, vineyards and villages and bring toppling what i man's industry and piety have reared? ! j The future of civilization rests largely on the use that ;irf made of many substances that have been carelessly lab eled "waste" piodutts. As attar of roses is distilled from the garbage of lierlin, there are jewels still discoverable lutho innumerable variety ol refuse, as well as in the prodigality or natural resources of which we arc so heed less or so prodigal. i j ' A 1RHNU WHLtLMKN WHO W'UW.HtlJ'i .

Most of the laiKO stores in- Japan now romain oKn sovon days a wook in tho voar mind. It is nhoiit timo that Japan joined tho procession tif progress in this rosprd, since sho takes so ninch piide in keeping step with modern civilization in others. j Visitors to tho Orient, who have read much concerning tlio lethargy and leistneliness id the Kast, have been Mir pi'iscd at tho pertinacity and industry with which a larjre part of the population stick to heir occupations. The mass tj the people in Japan and China literally earn their bread in the sweat of their blows.

Of all countries Japan h;is V n ieii the hardest t it Id for missionaries, who have met with little encouragement fnnn the Kovernmenl.

However Orientals may be constituted, Occidentals have found they must have this regular rest' period in order to do their best work and keep their health und vigor. jHriiitmciil, iiol heciiusf flic Milt didn't mine, tail Imtuumi H dkl."

In the four-cylinder field, the good Maxwell is now duplicating the revolutionary results which the Chrysler Six has already registered among the sixes. That in brief is the story of the recent dcvcl. opmcnts which, in my opinion, now stamp the Maxwell a most remarkable four-cylinder car. These new results are so vital and so valuable that they put the good Maxwell far beyond your previous conception of four-cylinder possibilities. Have you ever driven a four-cylinder car in which the last noticeable trace of vibration is gone.' Well, that's what you'll find in the Rood Maxwell of tiHl.iy. with its Coating platform spring suspension of the motor. I don't know that you can appreciate how much ihis means in new steering, handling nnd riding case and far longer life, unless you experience it in the good Maxwell yourself. As you go along, you will find the Maxwell riding the way you thought only far heavier cars could ride, and displaying a niniblcness that makes you wonder why anyone wants more than Maxwell gives. Now turn to the other side costs and upkeep and so on, which arc materially reduced by the unusually high proportion of costly alloy steels. You may not know that Maxwell owners arc now averaging 24 miles per gallon of gasoline. There are a do:cn other things I couid, tcil about, but do you know of any four that matches up to Maxwell in these respects? CAKES TO SUIT EVERY OCCASION.
