SOME LIKE THEIR OLD CARS
Owners Become Attached to Automo-
bile They Have Owned, Says
an Agent.

"The comradeship existing between
the average man and his car is as
deep-hearted as that between man
and horse-or dog" says an agent.
81 have seen people fairly grieve at
parting with an old car. They have
come to understand it, to know Just
what to expect of it, to rely upon it
to faithfully perform its part OF the
daily routine. Every car has traits
of it's own, even when built by the
same workman, in the same way, per-
haps on the same day. You can blind
fold the average driver, seat him in
turn at the wheel of his own and an
other car just like it, and immediate
ly he will tell you which is his

Gently come into the limelight. 1t has
been placed on the cars of some of
New Yorks largest department stores,
where it has proved so effective in
saving fuel that it has been adopted
by number of other firms also.
The device is a very simple con-
trivance, attached to the intake mani
fold at the point where it is bolted to
the carburetor flange. The principle
upon which it operates is that of a
double mixer.

IlbI IT, TINKER. lneIe are
w7 certain things ev-
- ---HSkti-aLS cry man should
know about his car and attend to him
self religiously, but there are other
things that should be left to the expe-
rienced mechanic, and the less the
owner has to do with these the hap
pier he is going to be.
The owner who is continually ex-
perimenting with his car usually has
his hands full of trouble. There are
some men who are naturally of me-
chanical turn of mind and keenly en-
Joy working about their cars. They
are capable and they do not get them
selves into trouble, but the average
owner who attempts fine adjustments,
experiments, rear axle, motor bear
ings, valve tappets, ETC., usually
wishes he had let his car alone before
he is through.
One owner attempted an adjust
ment on his front wheel bearings. He
got one of them too tight. Quite nat
urally it got hot end was BADLY scored.
1t was replaced at about $40 expense
(bearings cost more in those days
than they do nowl.
About two weeks later as he was
turning a corner at low speed, one Of
his front wheels dropped off. He was
quite indignant and blamed it all on
the car. He was fixed up without
charge and the broken spindle sent
to the factory for cerdit. This was re-
fused on the claim that the crystalli-
cation in the spindle was obviously due
to it having been overheated at some
time. On asking the owner a few
questions, the dealers found that the
spindle that had broken was the same
one which carried the bearing he had
burnt up.
