BOILING WATER
AS A DISINFECTANT
Dr. DIXOD Makes Some Excellent
Suggestions Regarding Use of
Plain Water
State Commissioner Samuel G. Dixon
is an advocate of boiling water as a
disinfectant. The commissioner says
that it is one of the simplest and most
effective forms of disinfectant and that
if people would use it more they would
be better off. This is the way the
commissioner discusses it:
Measles, scarlet fever, diphtheria
and various other communicable dis
eases are perhaps most readily trans
mitted by the discharges from the
nose and mouth of the patient. When
the patient is cared for in the home
and some member of the family must
act as nurse, it is necessary for the
protection of whoever acts in this ca
pacity and for those who come in
contact with the patient that the ut
most care should be exercised in hand
ling them.
Instead of the handkerchiefs com
monly used for this purpose the pa
tient should be supplied with cheese
cloth or paper napkins and in a suffi
cient quantity so that they can be
handled with comfort. Those which
have been used and discarded should
be handled only by the nurse and im
mediately burned. After handling
such materials the hands should be
thoroughly disinfected in a bichloride
of mercury or other good antiseptic
solution.
The dishes and eating utensils which
are used for the sufferer should in no
Instance be washed with those used
in the household but should be placed
in a receptacle kept just outside the
sickroom door containing a disinfect
in solution of cresols or formalde
hyde and then placed In boiling water
and allowed to boll for ten or fifteen
minutes.
The sheets and bed clothes which
will Invariably be covered with tine
particles of sputum when the patient
coughs or sneezes, should be placed
In a tub containing one of the three
disinfecting solutions and allowed to
soak for three hours after which they
should be boiled for one hour.
When there Is a sufferer from tu
berculosis in a household they should
not use the dishes and eating utensils
which the other members of the fam
ily do, but should be supplied with
individual utensils. These should al-J
ways be first boiled and then washed
separately.
These are fundamental precautions
In the handling of communicable dis
ease which can only be disregarded
at the peril of the nurse and the entire
household. Unquestionably the trans
mission of disease from one member
of a family to another in many cases t
is due to the failure to follow out this
method of procedure consistently. !
How the Eight-Cylinder
Car Was Developed
Although the Cadillac Motor .Car
company was the first American au
tomobile manufacturer to develop the
eight-ceylinder Y-shape of motor for
the market, it does not claim to have
originated a new type, but it is given
credit for high development of this I
most efficient motor principle, declared
C. O. Crispen, Cadillac distributor to I
the Telegraph automobile man to- j
day.
The Cadillac engineers believe, he i
said, they have gone farther toward:
maximum efficiency than any other]
group of men who have applied them- j
selves to the eight-cylinder: and their•
belief is supported by the reports ofj
disinterested engineers who are con-j
versant with the advances made in]
this limited field.
It is altogether possible that many
Harrisburg people do not Know that
prior to the coming of the Cadillac
eight, more than 100 eight-cylinder
cars were in dally use in and around
New York city, says Mr. Crispen. ;
Some of these appeared as early as!
1909, so that it may be seen that the j
application of the eight-cylinder en-1
gine is not a thing of recent date, i
Eight-cylinder engines have been used
in aeroplanes for several years because ;
they produce torque or turning power
of perfect continuity.
As far as the writer can learn, the;
first application of the eight-cylinder, i
V-form motor to an automobile, wasj
made in 1906 by a well-known French
concern. At the same time this manu- j
facttuer built experimental cars of a
type that has since come Into wide
use in America. Six cars of each
kind were built and all were sent out |
on the road for 10.000 miles of experi. ;
mental work. When this was com- ]
i pleted, careful comparisons and tests.
; were made by all of the department j
j heads in the organization, with the j
result that the decision was so unani-;
j mously in favor of the eight-cylinder.
| models that the others were consigned
to storage in a basement where they j
remained until destroyed by the floods
in the P.iver Seine.
Since the advent of the Cadillac;
eight in Harrisburg Mr. Crispen has (
received no end of inquiries from all 1
parts of Central Pennsylvania. Orders
were placed before the demonstrator;
arrived in Harrisburg and Mr. Crispen j
had difficulty during the first few
months after the announcement was
made to fill the orders and make deli
veries. It seemed that every auto
mobile owner who formerly had a Cad
illac four cylinder, even of the latest
model, wanted an eight. Then there
were many others who have been
awaiting for something new—some
thing out of the ordinary.

The Public Service Commission to
day received a complaint from J. A.
McGonegal, constable, of Mount Holly,
In which it is declared that the road
bed of the Cumberland Railway Com
pany is not well maintained, the cars
are In need of repairs and are not
sanitary and that there Is a less fare
from Carlisle to Newville than to
Mount Holly.
The commission will adjourn to
night after clearing its calendar.
There are a number of cases to be
disposed of.
The commission lias informed Mayor
Blankenburg. of Philadelphia, in re
sponse to an Inquiry by the mayor,
that no contract between the Phila
delphia Electric company and the
Keystone Telephone company has
been filed fot approval and that it
will Inquire whether such a contract
has been made. The mayor wrote
asking; if the contract, whereby the
electric company received right to use
excess ducts of the telephone com
pany, required commission approval,
it was stated tht'the mayor desired to
present certain matters In case a bear
ing was held.
The commission last night approved
the plans for abolition of three grade
crossings in Harbor Creek township,
ICrle county. The crossings are on the
lines of the New York Central and
Nickle Plate railroads and a State
highway extending through Erio coun
ty between New York State and Ohio.
The Blairsville Telephone company
has tiled a complaint against the
Johnstown and Windber Telephone
companies asking for through service.
Notice was filed with the commis
sion by the Pennsylvania and Phila
delphia and Reading railroads that
they intend to take to the courts the
order rendered by the New Jersoy

Motorcycle a Utility
and Pleasure Vehicle
"The motorcycle has revolutionized
signaling on the battlefield," says
Henry Beach Needham, a war corre
spondent. "It has practically done
I away with wigg-wagging on the field.
It is economical, efficient and speedy,
and Is everywhere and nowhere as
much as at the front."
For pleasure, too, the motorcycle
has made a definite place for itself.
The ease with which the two-wheeler
is operated, its reliability and com
fort. make it an ideal vehicle for tour
ing. Club sociability and endurance
I runs are enjoyed by thousands of rid
jers all over the country every year.
And more and more we hear of the
i long-distance tourist, riding from
I ocean to ocean or from gulf to lakes,
|or around the United States, or cir
• cling the globe—for pleasure. Many
lof these long-distance tourists are
i women, who find as much pleasure
in the sport as do the men.
Early in the history of the indus
try the need of an organization of
motorcycle riders became apparent.
Therefore the Federation of Amer
ican Motorcyclists was founded by a
i handful of men who foresaw the fu-
Iture of the sport. That was twelve
I years ago. Since that time the associa
; tion has grown by leaps and bounds,
until to-day it is one of the strongest
organizations in the country. Mem
| bership card No. 31.103 was recently
issued for membership in the F. A. M.
| —to a rider in South Africa,
j The objects of the Federation of
| American Motorcyclists are to en
! courage the use of motorcycles and
jto promote the general interests of
motorcycling: to ascertain, protect
and defend the rights of motorcy
clists; to facilitate touring: to assist
In the good roads movement, aud to
govern and administer the sport of
motorcycle racing and other compe
i titions in which motorcyclists engage,
i The federation is an organization
jof riders and for riders. It proposes
Ito sec that the motorcyclist has a
'square deal at all times, but has no
; desire to shield the rider who may be
: at fault. There is a right way and a
i wrong way to do everything and
; riding a motorcycle is no exception.
| The F. A. M. recognizes this fact,
jand that the man afoot has rights as
well as motorcyclists,
i The federation has no sympathy
with or for the speeder who hurls
himself through the streets, imperil
ing the life and limb of all who may
i come before him.. It stands for law
I and law observance: for courtesy
' and gentlemanly conduct, and It ia
i spending every energy in these direc-
I I tions.
i The motorcycle as a vehicle, has
i made a place for itself in pleasure and
,in the business world. Tt has come to
stay. But. if the P. A. M. has its
way it will be respected and hold a
dignified as well as useful position In
1 ; this motor-driven age.
The federation maintains for the
I benefit of its members a touring bu
, reau, which is gathering information
! concerning routes, road conditions,
I hotel accommodations, etc.,. In va
' jrlous parts of the country. And it
| will furnish any rider advance In

It Arrived in Harrisburg This Morning
After many disappointments, due to conditions beyond our control, we now take pleas
ure in announcing that the new Detroiter "Eight" HAS arrived. We want the scores of
people who responded to our announcement, to see the greatest moderate-priced automo
bile made.
This car represents the first successful attempt In America to produce s real qualitv car at a mod
erate price. The eight-cylinder motor introduces the hoiseiess "steady pull a. all speeds'" feature which
removes the remaining kinks from motoring' comfort. The finish, design and appointments are im
pressively refined, in fact, many cnrs of greater cost suffer by comparison. From the standpoint ot
recognized achievement, ilie L>etrolter "Eight" is the biggest thing on the automobile horizon to-day,
to-morrow and for many days to come. It has been christened by motoring connoisseurs, "The Aristo
crat of Moderate Priced Cars." Will climb any hill around Harrisbunc on high. Demonstrations with

Motor Car Experience
Versus Motor Experiment
By Koy I>. Chapin,
President Hudson Motor Car Company
Frequently I am asked how one
should go about selecting a motor car
so as to Insure a satisfactory purchase.
The problem is by no means as diffi
cult as some seem to imagine. It can
be solved by precisely the same meth
ods as are used In practically all busi
ness transactions. In the first place,
much more Importance should be at
tached to the maker of the car and to
the record of the car than to merely
superficial or novel attributes. A
handsome lawyer with a fine suite of
offices, or a distinguished looking phy
sician who lived in a stately house,
would have little weight with us as
against professional men of tried and
tested experience who had given ex
cellent satisfaction to many of our
friends. The fact that untried men
presented some strikingly novel and
unusual reason for their patronage
would have no weight. So with a
motor car. To insure satisfaction and
the most profitable investment, look
to the reputation of the maker of the
car and to the record it has in the
hands of a sufficient number of users
to establish a safe average. Just as
an example, there are ten thousand
Hudsons of the light Six model alone
in the hands of users in forty-three
different countries. Practically every
user Is a "booster." It would be quite
impossible that all or even any con
siderable percentage of these men
should be mistaken or that they pur
posely would bear false testimony. I
speak of the Hudson Six because I am
familiar with its record. There are
other good cars. As against the testi
mony of ten thousand satisfied owners,
whose period of use of the Hudson
Light Six extends over nearly two
years' time, and covers many hun
dreds of thousands of miles of every
conceivable kind of road, there is
sometimes offered cars whose chief
appeal Is newness or novelty. It is
manifest that to the average buyer the

Trucks Extensively Used
by Modern Bakeries
li. sr. Brlcker, proprietor of the
West Shore Bakery, Lemoyne, Pa.,
purchased a two-ton model "J" Reo
truck from the Harrlsburg Automo
bile Company on September 23, 1914.
The body of this truck was specially
constructed to handle a great quantity
of full or empty crates, hauling theni
to the different stations, bringing back
the empties and also as a trailer for
the bread wagons around this terri
tory. Mr. Brlcker keeps a very close
and accurate account of cost and op
eration of everything about his es
tablishment and his truck cost sheet
shows that this truck has been driven
between 35 and 40 miles a day at a
cost for oil, gasoline, grease, repairs
and upkeep, in fact everything con
ceivable except the driver, and the in
vestment of not. over $3.94 a week, in
fact, this is the highest week's expense
he has had on the truck since he has
had it. Of course the truck has given
no trouble. He has a very efficient
driver. Charles E. Hoerner drives this
truck and has complete charge of it
