It is these that cause friction. Dixon's selected flake graphite is the only lubricant known that will fill up these holes and build up around these pin points a smooth, oily veneer that grows finer and more smooth by continual use and wear. It is unaffected by heat or cold. It will not turn thin. The Joseph Dixon Crucible Company are the only people in the world who produce this peculiar form of graphite. With this rare form of flake as a basis we have pro duced a line of graphite lubricants specially designed for every separate part of the car.

The utilization of dogs for the pur pose of drawing lLght field pieces, as j well as small ammunition wagons and I hospital stores, has been reduced to a | science ibv the armies of the warring nations. It is interesting to note that ' this novel means of transportation was 1 suggested to and rejected ,'oy the Unit- ' ed States government as being im- j practical, yet Its value has been ef fectually demonstrated, by nearly every i power across the so*. - •»> The economical poliCv -#hieh im >bues nations and individuals alike ! throughout crowded Guropo fastened ' early upon the dog as an asset in many : callings, and it is estimated that there 1 are more "working dogs" in Europe 1 than pets. Among the peasantry the 1 canine friend is as useful as among the Eskimo of the far North, and in times of dire stress represents a value as food for his master, thus is useful to the end. The importance of the doig for war use is fully and interestingly told by Willis J. Abbot in his great book "The Nations at War," which is be ing offered by the Star-Independent to its readers for the mere presenta tion fee of 08 cents, to cover book rights and handling. This elaborate volume, the first authoritative work of its kind yet issued, is to (be marketed for $3, but through special arrange ment the Star-Independent was en abled to secure a limited quantity of the first edition for its reaJers at a mere fraction of its worth. The volume, written Mr. Ab bot's staff of able news gatherers in Europe, represents the highest achieve ment of some of the keenest minds on the continent. The book is profusely illustrated by more than 463 actual new fresh authoritative photographs, many taken under fire, ami is embel lished with' 20 full-page color plates of thrilling and amazing scenes. Many of the photos iu this volume would never have been published had the mil itary censors known of their existence.
