You Save One-Half in Cost
The Gates Half Sole Tire is not a
re-tread, not a sewed-on; not a re
constructed tire in any sense. It is
a brand-new tire built by hand, as
the beat tires are built, and of the
same quality of materials that go in
to the ‘ best -------
and highest priced tires
on the market.
But Gates Half-Sole Tires last
longer, give better service and yet
cost only one-half as much as tires
of corresponding size.
In the manufacture of tires, about
two-thirds of the cost enters into the
fabric carcass and beads When you
throw away a tire merely because
the tread has worn thin, you throw
away two-thirds of the original value
of your tire.

Pinckney’« Immortal Declaration.
Charles C. Pinckney was one of
three envoys sent by the United
j States to France In 1797 to settle dls-
[ putes which had arisen between France
and the United States. The American
grievance was caused by the seizure
of American vessels by France. The
French grievance was that commercial
privileges had been granted to Eng
land. Talleyrand, the French foreign
minister, refused to receive the en
voys, but It had been conveyed to
them by secret agents that before any
settlement could be reached It would
l>e necessary for the United States to
pay a large sum of money, which was.
ki fact little more than a bribe. It
was then that Pinckney made his
famous declaration, that the United
States had "millions for defense, but
not one cent for tribute.”

Museum of Art contain« a quarter of

that a skillful armorer might make

fifty of these links a day, you can see
that this mail would have cost Its
maker, working every day, almost
three years' work—a low estimate for
making this particular mall. If you
allow the maker six dollars a day for a
thousand 'lays, such a shirt would
therefore have cost Its purchaser In
