Notwithstanding the pneumatic tires and the very best of 

 laminated springs, the automobile, the same as the horse- 

 drawn carriage, has a disagreeable, trembling motion. To 

 obviate this somewhat, india-rubber is placed between the 

 body and chassis for the purpose of isolating the body as 

 much as possible from the road shocks. This is a practice 

 which will become more general in the future [says The 

 Carriage Monthly], Rubber blocks between springs and axles 

 to diminish the road shocks have been in use for a long time, 

 and better riding qualities were the results when fitted with 

 rubber blocks. This much assured, it will be certainly a good 

 improvement to place rubber between the body and chassis, 

 improving its riding qualities and eliminate most of the trem- 

 bling motion. 



The Imperial Ethiopian Rubber Co., Limited, registered in 

 London January 9, 1907, to work a rubber concession from the 

 Emperor Menelik. of Abyssinia [see The India Rubber World, 

 June I, 1907 — page 274] report a loss on the first year's trading, 

 although they collected 241,672 pounds of rubber, in addition to 

 some coffee and beeswax.
