GARY MAN INVEITTS TRACTOR Continual t'ora Fare cast ingr men. There Isn't a day laborer in any of the cities who cannot own his own home. Property values are suppressed. Prnlae for Region. "Livlnp is as cheap here as anywhere and I am inclined to think it a
little cheaper for we have bis department stores in our midst and the farmers at our door. Rents are reasonable and wages thu best in all lines." A patent has Just been granted to George Jett, Gary. It covers a machine known as a "Tractor." the combination of a frame, a motor mounted on the frame, driving and driven by shafts, a driven gear carried on the gear shaft, spur gears loosely mounted on the gear shaft and adapted to lock with the said driven gear, a differen-
tial gearing providing rotation to the said spur gears, traction wheels on the driven shaft, and a connection between the spur gears and the driven shaft. It is an agriculture tractor. A Qnalnt Shop. Old timers recall when an Inventors
club flourished on Michigan avenue in Hammond. Although interest never fagged It petered out when the four original members died and their assistants went elsewhere to work. This society was known as a plant where models and first duplicates were made. The only trouble was that after a model was completed and
patented the quartette was busy at something else and made no special .effort to place it on the market.
Buaj Ml tb Time. Palmer Cross a farmer was the founder. By tireless effort he invented a elder pres. mechanical violin, a combination siren, windmill, washing machine, paper hanger and a contrivance for feeding coal into a furn-ace-The only trouble with the paper hanger was that an uneven wall would throw it off the trail or tear the paper. It worked like a lawn mower. It was Intended as a household convenience that could be pushed up the side of a wall or across the celling, cutting, pasting, laying, trimming and brushing the paper. After Palmer Cross had died the practical things that he had produced were placed on the market by one of the four who left the city. These were the cider pres sand washing machines.
A farmer near Joliet Is said to have J told the police that he was aroused j early on Wednesday morning by the I
barking of his dog, and that when he looked out of the window a long black auto, without lights, flashed by his place. Its horn was blown as it passed the house to warn off a cow that had strayed onto the road..
Much
less defective eyesight would exist if the children's eyes were looked after in their early days. Watch the kiddies' eyes! At the least sign of pain, blurring, or any complaint, no matter how small, bring the child to McGarry's and let us examine them. Every child's eyes should be examined before entering school. A child with defective eye sight cannot keep up with the clase. Bring your children in at once. We make no charge for examination and will not insist upon selling glasses unless you need them.

POLICE HOT UPON TRAIL OF SKARUN
Joliet Warden Expects Recapture of Convict Who Escaped in Auto.
; THE STITCHES OF ART. 'Many Employed to ProI duce Harmonious Effects. ! While the names of the various
stitches required in embroidery work may appear formidable to the beginner, she need have no misgivings as to her ability to soon learn and apply them to any of the 160 beautiful designs contained In the Imperial Pattern Outfit now being distributed by The Times. In this outfit are included instructions which are illustrated and enable the learner to easily master all the
different kinds of stitches that are j used, among which are the outline, chain, seeding, cat, buttonhole, couch- ' lng, satin, eyelet work, wallachtn emj broidery, cross, French knots, Pagotj ting, solid Kensington and Roman cut i work. Every woman who does home work can, after a little practice, manufacture her own. embroidery, and at a 1 cost that would represent but a mere
fraction of what she would be obliged to pay for the work In the usual way. In addition to this advantage, which means dollars and cents saved, she can apply her skill to the ornamentation of many articles of her own clothing that hitherto she has always worn without this exquisite medium of decoration, mainly from the reason of the prohibitive prices Invariably asked for highclass needlework of any kind. Ju3t at the present time there Is a i i
rush for the Imperial Pattern packets at The Times, which are handed out j for 68 cents and six coupons, and mall- j ed for 7 cents extra, so the girl who ! Intends to do embroidery work should lose no time in getting this outfit, j which, if bought In the regular way at 1 10 cents a pattern, would cost $16. Surely this latter value and the opportunity of obtaining it for a sum less than one-twentieth the amount should be sufficient to appeal to every lady . who is at all Interested In the pleasing
results of the needle in skillful hands.
Clews obtained yesterday by Warden E. M. Allen and the Chicago police are expected to result in the speedy recapture of Thomas ("Jen") Sharun, the forger, counterfeiter and gang leader, who escaped from Joliet in the early morning hours of Wednesday by leaping from the outer wall of he prison and speeding away in a black racing car, which a woman confederate had waiting just outside the prison. "I am pretty sure I know where Sharun Is" said the warden. "I do not care to say anything definite about it now for fear that our knowledge may reach him through the devious underground methods that criminals use with such expeditions." The warden admitted that the CMcako police had been Informed of the plans to recapture Sharun and of the clews that are said to show the trail of the black racing auto.
