The route from the National Capital Is

The joys of motoring are somewhat
dampened when, after few spasmodic
chugs, car comes to stop several
miles from. nowhere with an exhausted
gasoline tank. The troubled traveller then
realizes the value of looking after his
fuel supply. and In this case a good easo-
line gauge. A very efficient and cheap form
of gasoline gauge can be fashioned from
a sufficient length of grOund-glass rod
which should be fairly stout. Run your
car on a level place, empty your tank.
and then measure the gasoline back
therein, gallon by gallon. After the in
PRODUCTION Of each gallon sound the tank
with the ground-glass rod and the height
of the spirit will be plainly visible on the
rod. Mark the height of each successive
gallon on the rod with the edge of a
sharp file, and, the rod being kept In a
leather clip handy to the tank, you will
have a ready means of determining how
much gasoline there remains in your tank
at any time.
