and shipped It here. Then he went to
one of the two dozen big garages and
repair shops in the city. The garage
man looked over the car. ‘‘We haven't
got the missing parts in stock,” he
said, "but we're equipped to make
them for you.”
. He got the order in a jiffy. The old
car was completely renovated at the
garage and turned over to Its own
er. so that he drove it back home
himself next day and took his wife
out on the anniversary ride.
The garage man who made those
repairs, where so many others had
failed, said: “Why, that’s nothing
wonderful. I guess that any of the
high-class Public garages and repair
shops in Augusta could have done the
trick just as well as we did. You see,
as a matter of fact, the great number
and the amazing variety and classes
of automobiles used by Individuals
and corporations in this city and vi
cinity has simply forced the public
garages to equip themselves so that
they will be able to make any repairs
of whatever nature at a moment’s no
tice. As a result the garages are the
finest equipped of any in the country
and contain every part for every au
tomobile from the smallest bolt to the
carburetor. The automobile repair
business in Augusta has simply had
to be reduced to a fine art. Inciden
tally it is also one of the most thriv
ing businesses in the south.”
Undisturbed Industry South
(From he Cincinnati Enquirer).
The South is to be congratulated
that the vicious agents of those who
will not work and would prevent
others from working have been un
able to produce any considerable dis
turbance in any of its many states.
Conditions of climate and races
South do not Invite the mischiev
ous intervention between capital and
labor, between the crop and the pick
ing, which might ordinarily be looked
for in a country of long and hot sum
mers. In the fields and in the mills
during the protracted heat work goes
on; it may not be with a great ac
tivity hour aftei hour, and with as
important results by the week, as
might be expected of states having
fewer weeks of intense heat each
year, but the people work stadily
without dictation from idle malcon
tents, and the results are magnificent
in contribution to the propresity of
the people.
In many of the great plants, when
the midsummer heat is greatly in
creased by the character of the activ
ities, as of the furnaces, for instance,
the wisdom of the employers is shown
by their frequent indulgence of the
employed in days of rest and recrea
tion with but little loss in wage.
Here is a happy condition in the
industries which should bs encourag
ed and closely guarded, and yet at this
writing we find some of the politic
ians of the South "fighting*’ for office
in a sort of blind fury, leading
thought astray or inclining to for the
sake of a few votes. For instance,
in South Carolina, a couple of the
candidates for the governorship are
attempting to disturb capital and ar
raign contented labor against it. One
of them says. "I am for a square deal
for the minority stockholders in the
cotton mills of South Carolina that
in the end greater confidence may be
shown in our great industrial enter
prises, and our people may escape
greater losses in the years to come,
and the laborer in these mills get a
deal and better wages,” and so on for
quantity.
Here are men seeking high public
place attempting to arouse discontent
and beckoning to the people who will
not work and who would not allow
others to work to send their agents
of disturbance to a great field now
attending to its own business. But
such attempts should, and it may
safely predicted will, have little ef
fect South.

The Freaks in Advertising
“Advertising is a constant series of
surprises to me,” said a department
store advertising manager recently, ‘‘and
no branch of our business interests me
more.
“I have never forgotten an example of
the peculiar force of the printed word in>
connection with one of our sales.
“I ran across an odd lot of silk un
derskirts and decided to clear them up
at a great reduction of the original
prices. The assortment was not large,
consequently we devoted but small space
to tlie offering in our regular advertise
ment.
“This supplemented, however, with
YOU CAN TELL A LIAR
BY HIS BREATHING
When you are telling a lie you
breathe differently from when you
are telling the truth. The difference
was discovered by means of some
tests made upon his students by Prof.
Benussi of Graz.
He prepared cards bearing letter’s,
figures and diagrams and distributed
these among bis pupils. These were
required to describe the cards cor
rectly, except in certain cases when
the cards were marked with a red
star and the students receiving them
were required to describe them false
ly. Each student was watched care
fully by his fellows, who, ignorant of
the nature of the card, tried to judge
from his manner whether he was tell

"Imagine my surprise when at the end
of the day I was informed that only hall'

ing the truth or nojt. The watchers
were unable to judge with any cer
tainty.
But before eeah man began his test
the time occupied in inspiration and
explanation was measured, and the
measurement was taken again im
mediately after he finished. It was
found that the utterance of a false
statement always increased and the
utterance of a true statement always
diminished, the quotient obtained by
dividing the time of inspiration by
the time of expiration.
Dr, Anton Rose, commenting in
Die Umschau on these results, re
marks that the discovery furnishes a
certain criterion between the truth
and falsehood. For even a clever liar
is likely to fail in an attempt to es
cape detection by breathing irregu

that men are unable voluntarily to
change their respiration so as to af
