C Another Reason ‘Why
Buick Cushions Are Comfortable
On All Roads
The cushions on Buick open cars are supported
on double-deck springs. The upper springs,
light and easy acting, smooth out slight road
irregularities, while the larger and stronger
lowers absorb the bumps that cause the ordi¬
nary seat to “strike bottom”. Two pads of
curled hair between springs and French plaited
upholstery give that final softness and assure
the purchaser a cushion that' will stand up.
When better automobiles are built

No fish Is si ranger than the llttU
naa-horue. It has tr body encased hi
rings of bony mall, a horse-shaped
head set at right angles and a pro
hensile tall to grasp seaweed In which
it hides. It always floats with K»
queer head up and erect. Another pe¬
culiar thing about the sfeg-horse It
that the male fish carries the eggs In a
pouch situated under his tail until the
roung gre hatched and large enough
to look out for themselves.

Ice and Water.
When two molecules of wnter esm
bine to make one molecule of ice, half
of their free electrons enter into the
new molecule to hold It together.
Their grip is not strong, which ac¬
counts for the ease with which ice
melts. The other half of the elec¬
trons remain in the external field, and
give ice the power to combine directly
with a few strong chemicals.
