AUTO SHOULDBE
EASILY kept UP

That accessibility is of paramount
Importance in a medium-priced car
is the opinion Of Geo. Wells, manager
of the Royal Hawaiian garage, local
distributors of REQ motor cars.
There is no one thing about a
motor car which influences the aver
age buyer today more than accessi-
bility. Get-at-ableHess always leaves
a good impression on the buyer.
practically every man who buys
a medium-priced car likes to take
care of his own car. And this ap,
plies to women in many cases.
Through the medium of the press
owners have learned the A b Cs OF
motor car anatomy.
1.-THE owner Trides himself on his
ability to care for his car and keep
it in good condition. He likes to feel
that it is not necessary for him to
run to a nearby garage everytime il
needs attention.
1--WE know this to be true, as a
large number of REQ owners have told
us of the pleasure they take in caring
for their Reos. In an investigation
among. our owners the simplicity and
accessibility of our chassis was
brought home very strongly to us.

lamps are used instead of the 80 can
die powef ones, twice as many lamps
will be required, as each Is candle
power carbon-filament lamp will allow
approximately only IL ampere to pass
through the battery. II high efficiency
lamps, such as tungsten, be used more
lamps will be required, as the current
rating of the high efficiency lamps is
less than the current rating Of carbon
filament lamps.
When a 220-volt circuit is available
instead OF a 110-volt circuit two no
volt lamps must be connected in series
as shown in the illustration. When a
550-yolt circuit is available five lamps
must be connected in series and a suf-
ficient number of these series combin.
ations connected in parallel to give the
desired charging current.
Several batteries may be charged in
series more efficiently than by charg-
ing each battery alone. If several bat
teries be connected in series in place
of the single battery shown in the IL
lustration less resistance will be re.
CURED In order that the proper charg-
ing current mag pass through the bat
teries. The reason for this is that with
an increase in the number of batteries
in series there is decrease in the
value of the effective pressure acting
in the circuit, which is equal to the
difference between the pressure be-
tween the terminals Of the charging
circuit and the combined pressure OF
all Of the batteries in series, and hence
there must be decrease in the value
of the resistance OF the circuit in order
that the curren, may remain constant.
There is a limit, however, to the
numbeK of batteries that may be charg-
ed in series, and this limit is reached
when the combined pressure Of all the
batteries in series at the end of charge
and with the circuit closed is ex-
actly equal to the pressure between
the terminals of the charging circuit.
In these conditions there Is no resist
anee required in the circuit, and all
the energy drawn from the charging
circuit is used within the batteries
instead of part of this energy appear
ing as heat in the resistance.
Care When Not IN Service
1t may happen that the battery will
be out of service for a considerable
period. as when the car is put away
during the winter months, and during
this time it should not be allowed TO
stand without attention. II the bat
terry is to be out of service for only
three or four weeks it should be filed
with pure water and be given COM
plete charge the last few days the car
is in service by using the lamps and
starting motor very sparingly. The
specific gravity of the electrolyte
should test between 1910 and 1900.
The batteries should be entirely dis
connected from all circuits, as any
slight leak will in time completely
discharge it 1t should be put in "a
room the temperature of which is
fairly uniform and. il possible, in the
neighborhood of 20 degrees Fahren-

keep AWAY FROM
CAR TRACKS AND
RUTS, SAYS AGENT

Tire makers exert every effort To
give the motorist the greatest amount
OF resistance in their tires, according
to Roy NJ Talbot, manager OF the
Kirshner Vulcanizing Company. local
distributors Of Federal tires and tubes.
but besides the normal, wear OF the tire
on the road il is in most cases great
ly handicapped by abuse on the part
of the driver.
Little effort is made to avoid run
ming in ruts or street car tracks. yet
they are two things that will wear a
tire out quickly, and there are not
many drivers who respect the In
junction To slow down while driving
their machines around corners; brakes
are fused violently when In many
cases their use is not necessary at all
Every owner knows, or should
know, that wheels out OF alignment
play havoc with the tires, yet wobbly
wheels are seldom adjusted until the
damage to the wheel or to the ma
chine makes II Imperative: much
costly damage also results from run
ming a machine on a tire after IL has
been punctdred, as half a dozen revo-
buttons of the wheel are likely to dam
age tire past the possibility Of re-
pair.
II the motorist will only watch for
some of these simple things. says Mr..
Talbot, and above all keep tires prop
erly inflated at all times. there will
be great many more getting the high
mileage which so many Federal tire
owners are obtaining.

rate that II will be completely charged
companies usually specify the rate at
which their different types and Sizes
of cells should be charged. and that
rate should be followed This charge
should continue until there is no in
crease in either the voltage of the
cell, as indicated by voltmeter, or
the specific gravity of the electo-
lyte as indicated by the hydro
meter, for a period of perhaps five
hours. The electrolyte in the various
cells should be gassing-that is, bub-
bling freely-before the end of the
charge.
In some cases the temperature OF
the cell may become quite high dur.
ing charge, and in such cases it is
best either to reduce the rate OF
charge or to stop the charge entirely
until the temperature Is lowered to a
safe value. In no conditions should
the temperature of the cell be allowed
to exceed Ito degrees Fahrenheit.
If a battery is completely dis
charged 1t may take 20 hours or more
to recharge it completely at the nor
NAL rate. Thisftime may be reduced
where conditions demand that the bat.
terry be charged in a shorter time by
charging the battery at twice its nor
NAL rate during the first part of the
charge and reducing this rate to nor
NAL value as soon as there are any in
dications of gassing. But It is not rec.
commended as the proper method OF
procedure to follow in general. The
temperature of the cells should be
watched carefully and the rate re.
duced If the temperature rises to the
neighborhood of ITO degrees Fahren.
heit.
Trouble in Cell
In some cases the temperature may
become excessive, although there Is
little or no gassing in the cells and
the specific gravity is low. This is
an indication Of trouble in the cell and
it should be examined by a battery
man.
A storage battery must be charged
by sending direct current through il
from the positive to the negative ter
minals Under no conditions try to
charge 1t by using an alternating cur
rent, as this will ruin the battery In
some places alternating current only is
available, and in such cases il will be
necessary to convert the alternating
current into direct current.

for several months it is perhaps best
to send it to reliable battery station
for storage, where it will receive the
necessary attention from time to
time.
No matter what procedure is fol-
lowed, water should always be added
and the battery should be fully charged
before it is put back into service. II
the battery has stood for five or six
months without being charged it
should be charged for 40 or so hours
at one-half normal rate before being
put back into service. If the battery
does not charge properly the plates
are defective.

DARKEh GRAY HAIR,
LOOK YOUNG, PRETTY
Sage Tea and Sulphur Darkens
SO Naturally that No
body can tell.

Hair that loses its color and lustre, or
when it fades, turns gray, dull and life
lsgs, is caused by lack of sulphur in
the hair. Our grandmother made up
mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to
keep her locks dark and beautiful, and
thousands of women and men who value
that even color, that beautiful dark
shade of hair which is so attractive, use
only this old-time recipe.
a Nowadays we get this famous mixture
improved by the addition of other ingredi-
ents by asking at any drug store for So
cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" which darkens the
hair SO naturally so evenly, that nobody
can possibly. tell it has been applied. You
lust dampen q sponge or soft brush with
il and draw this through your hair, tax
ing one small strand at a time. BY morn
ing the gray hair disappears; but what
delights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound, is that, besides beau
tifully darkening the hair after few
applications, it also brings back the gloss
and lustre aud givesNit an appearance
of abundance.
Nyeth's Sage aud Sulphur Compound
is delightful toilet requisite to impart
color and youthful appearance TO the
hair. 1t Il not intended for the cure,

receives a full days pay. no matter
how short time he works.
The trainmen now demand that, IN
