The now minister will arrive Fri day night and will bo received at St. Murk's hall In a fitting manner. "The .New Minister" Is a comic per rofrnunce with not a dull moment In It. The characters are taken by local talent, and rehearsals have been held regularly for some time. It will appeal to both old und young, and anyone leaving at the close with a "face as lung as grandfuthor's clock" may ask for a return of the price of udmissiun. This will be given under the aus pices of tho Ladies, Aid of the First Methodist church. See cast of characters and synop sis in tbe advertising columns of this ifc-sue. They're Deadly Foes to Gas Waste the Chalmers Hot Spot and Ram's-Horn anifold These are days when the sagacious person is cutting out all forms of waste in his shop and in his home. No douht a condition thut has sent thousands to see the new Chalmers with its two greit devices chut. IIooveri;:e gas. One of thorn is the now noted Hot Spot, which cracks up and heats up the raw gas into a cooked condition for wonderful power results. The other is the Ram's-Horn Manifold, which of the two is prob--ably an even greater device. For it takes the gas vapor from the Hot Spot and carries it 14 inches equi-distant to each cylinder without sharp turns, angles or pockets where the vapor might lodge. So that at the moment of sparking, the gas is (like the charge in a large projectile) ready for lOO'c results. There's so little that comes out of the exhaust in the form of un burneil gas as to be negligible. All the power goes into tin: crank-shaft and out of the rear wheels. And such a soft, luring power th.it it casts a spell of intense satisfaction the moment your foot touches the accelerator. ..... ulM 1 '. e A . f Is e A .-J - -11 T Y.
