attractive seven-passenger convertible type of body
yet produced. This body, Fisher-built, is exceptionally
roomy and comfortable. It is deeply upholstered and
mounted on springs which absorb all the stress and shock
of the roadway. The left side door is immediately opposite
the driver's seat so that the driver to get in or out of the
car does not have to disturb its other occupants. The
auxiliary seats fate forward, folding down into the backs
of the front seats as in the Chandler touring car, and
offer the same comfortable riding qualities. The forward
side windows and the door windows lower away entirely
by adjustable strap. The rear side windows lower half
way by adjustable strap, and are entirely removable as
are the window posts. The workmanship throughout is
of pleasing refinement.

Bible of the Suprome Court.
In the United States supreme court
Instead of many Bibles we find but otie
small volume, now celebrated a the
Justices' Bible, used continuously dnr
big all the years since 1SU0 for the in
stallation of oaths of all the justices
and the pledging of allegiance of all
the. attorneys who have practiced be
fore that court So wonder that on an
average for about every decade of this
period a new or extra outside cover of
black leather lias been required to keep
the red morocco binding of the little
book in such freshness as It still pos
sesses. This Bible Is five and a half
Inches long and three and a balf inches
wide, and tradition says that it formed
one of 20,000 which .congress imported
in the oariy days of the republic to re
lieve the Scriptural dearth of the coun

printed at Oxford In 170!). This Bible

Tribute to Dog.
To the mind of the true dog lover
there are few human passions not
shared in by the dog. The dog is sub
ject to anger, Jealousy, hatred, envy,
love and grief, and it shows gratitude,
pride, courage, generosity and fear. It
sympathizes with its master In bis
troubles, and there are numerous cases
on record where dogs have rendered
the most valuable kind of service at
great risk to their own safety and com
fort The dog has an excellent mem
ory, It is capable of associating ideas,
and Its Judgment is often singularly
correct. These are the qualifications
which raise the dog above all other
animals and fit him for the compan
ionship of man. It has the physical
and Intellectual faculties that never
fall to arouse our love and admiration.
Pet and companion of old folks, guar
dian and playmate Of children, friend
and servant of man, behold the dog!
Long live this noble animal! William
Wood In Philadelphia Ledger.
First Sleeping Cart.
The first sleeping cars ever designed
were used on the Cumberland Valley
railroad between Harrisburg and
Chambersburg, Pa. They were built
In the year 1838 and ran for several
years. One end of the car was ar
ranged in the ordinary way, with day
seats; the other end was fitted up with
eighteen sleeping berths for the night,
which were changed for tbe day's run
nlng so as to make omnibus seats on
each side of the car. There were three
lengths of berths and three tiers on
each side. Tbe top tier of berths hoist
ed on a hinge and was secured by rope
supports to the ceiling of the car. The
middle tier consisted of the back of the
omnibus seat, hinged and supported in
tbe same manner. The lower tier was
the day seat along the side of the car.
There was no charge for sleeping ac
commodations. Philadelphia Press.
Your Watch and the Sun.
In addition to telling you the time of
day your watch may be used for keep
ing track of the sun. When the orb of
day finishes its day's Journey and dis
appears in the west note the time by
your watch. Then draw a horizontal
line (Imaginary, of course) from the
point of the hour hand to the opposite
side of the dial. The time Indicated by
the line on this side will be tbe time
at which the sun rises lu the morning.
Thus if the sun sets at 8 at night the
line shows that it will rise at 4 in the
morning; if it sets at 7 it will rise at 5;
if at 5 It will rise at 7, ami so on. -
