The Filipino has been touch misrep

largely because the Sunday supple
ments have made a specialty of por
traying the semi-naked non-Christian

is far from the truth.
The total population of the Philip
pines Is 10,350,640, Which 8,495,272

been so for 300 yean, possessing a cul

favorably with that of other countries.

Tribute and Tax,
Tribute I money, commodity of

or state to another in token of sub
mission, while taxes are financial bur
dens imposed by a state upon its own
subjects. Id early times there was not
this distinction, for. under the feudal
system especially, taxation, tribute and
tent were often identical.

Seventy per cent of the Inhabitants
of the Philippines over ten years of

of literacy than that of any South

the Allies.

Causes if Insomnia.
When a person la asleep far less
blood flows through the brain than
while be I awake. Anything that
makes a large quantity of blood flow
through the brain will make the mind
active and prevent sleep. For tbia
reason working or playing hard Just
before going to bed la ofteu the cause
of wakefulness, Some persons do not
sleep well because tbelr muscles are
tired, others because they eat Just be
fore retiring, and then again some be
cause they sleep In rooms not properly
ventilated.

Is No National Holiday.
Christmas is not a national holiday
New War's day is uot a national holi
day. Thanksgiving day is not a na
tional holiday. The fourth of July Is
not a national holiday. Neither Is Me
morial day. Neither Is Washington's
birthday. Neither Is any other day.
There Is no such day as a national
holiday in the United States. A
United States statute would be re
quired to constitute a particular day
a national holiday, and congress
has stopped short of this action, nu
merous constitutional lawyers insist
ing that such an act belongs to the
powers of the several states and not
to the general government,
The Fourth of July Is not strictly
a national holiday, though It Is a nation-wide
holiday, having been made a
holiday by acta of all the states and
by the common consent and usage x
the people.

GIVE AUTO TIRE i
GOOD ATTENTION
Very Few Owners Give a Though!
to Its Care, With Exception
of Inflating It.
COTTON FABRIC FOUNDATION
Elimination of Internal Frlotlan Wuld'
Oreatly Increase Life sf Cover
Big Difference Between Card
and Fabric.
To the average owner, an automo
bile tire Is good only when It travels
many thousands of mile without
breaking down or blowing out. Very
few give a thought to Its car, with
the exception of Inflating It from time
to time, and a still smaller number
know what it Is made of.
A big tire concern has prepared
treatise on the foundation of one
which ahmtld he remembered by every
motorist. It Is as follow:
"Cotton fabric is th foundation up
on which an automobile tire la built
It la used to glv stability and
strength. There are two well-known
clasaes of lire -th square-woven
fabric and the cord tire.
Cords and Fabric Differ.
"In the square-woven fabric tire th
threads In each ply run In both direc
tions, alternating over and under as In
piece of ordinary cloth. In th cord
tire, the threads or cords In each ply
run parallel, with the eiceptlon of
few small cross threads, used simply
to hold the cords together while they
are being Impregnated with th rubber
compound.
"The life of tire would be greatly
Increased If Internal friction could b
eliminated. The Internal frlctloal
caused by Intermittent distortion of
the tire In us I the result of th frle
tloo of th threads upon each other!
and the strains and stresses set up Is
th rubber compound. Naturally th
fabric which glv th least room for
Internal friction will glv th longest
life to th tire.
