Only don't try them in a public place, save them until you have sained the privacy of your own roof. for while they may demonstrate to your own entire satisfaction that you are perfectly sane, anyone observing you going through the various antics would undoubtedly form a decidedly different and less fiattering opinion.
 Close your eyes and try to strike the extreme point of your nose with the tip of your index finger. This is by no means as simple as it sounds, even to person in the pink of con dition. and to nervous man or wom- en 1t amounts to positive feat

WATTS EXPLAINS
 BATTERY TROUBLE
Hupp Engineer Says Bat teries Should Receive Ere
 quent Attention

F. L. Watts chief engineer ef tue Hupp Motor Car company is authority for the statement that 90 per cent of the battery and ignition trouble eNperi- enced by motorists is due to careless ness and engligenee on the part of own CTS.
 MT Watts believes that owners have not been properly educated on battery maintenance Much of this, he says. k due chiefly to the fault of the owner himself because he has given little or no attention 10 battery instructions
 "The trouble is,o said Mr. Watts re centls at the Hupp company. "that owners do not pay enough attention To care and operation of batteries. This is due to the fact that battery eduea- tion has been sadly neglected by motor ists. Most people look upon the storage battery as mystery box and believe the less attention Il is given the bet ter.
 This is absolutely the wrong atti- tude. If there is one thing that requires a mans attention. II is the storage l battery. The battery is the very life of a car. It is the source from which the engine derives it's existence. If the car i buretor. as has been said SD often, is the lungs of a motor. then the battery | Is the heart. Consequently, it should be given constant care and attention by the owner.
 The Hupmobile service department has had special instructions printed for the care and maintainance of batteries One caution that owners are given is to keep the battery fully charged. A sec ond caution is against allowing the wa ter in the cells to drop below a certain definiate level
 1 If the owner gives this care and is sure that these two important items are properly taken care of he will ex- perienee no trouble at all
