The carOuretor Is one Of the most

being On it the smooth running,

motor are largely dependent The
fulfllment Of these requirements de-
mands q good miXture-one that is
correctly proportioned and homogen-
eOus. whether the throttle is open
or shut or the motor is running fast
or slow. The other requirements of
carburetOr are atomization and
yaporization of the fuel. The latter
varies with the design of the car
buretor. but the former is more or
less dependent on adjustments-more
or less, because some carburetors
have more adjustments than others
and some have none.
A good adjustment is essential,
and the carhuretor should constantly

chimes in the hands of owners of
ordinary automobile knowledge have
the best adjustments that may be had
and many have settings that are
poor In many cases poor carburetor
adjustment is due to ignorance of
the owner. The car runs on all
cylinders and has a certain amount
of power and it is not until he
compares his machine with another of
the same make that has better ad-
justment that he realizes the differ
ence.
The amount of time that it takes
to obtain good setting is variable,

battery should receive pure distilled
water at intervals of a week or ten
days. This is necessary because of
the evaporation of the solution which
gives the battery its life. If this
tion of the battery plates exposed to
the air, these plates will deteriorate
and the life of the battery will be
greatly shortened.
Another point to consider is the
hydrometer test to determine spe-
cific gravity of the solution. This
test should always average 1880 and

care of certain parts or his car which
can't be seen.
One of these parts is the storage
battery, and because of the import
ant part it plays in starting, lighting
and ignition, too much emphasis can
not be laid upon its care.
On this account, the Willard Stor-
age Battery company is instructing
all of its $50 service stations to ad-
wise car owners throughout the coun-
try on the essential points of warm
weather attention to batteries. Prob
ably the most important of these is

he can have it made free of charge
at any willard service station. If
the battery is allowed to go below
the gravity mentioned, it will grad
ually run down and refuse to turn
over starting motor or operate the
electric lights.
BY watching these two most i'm
portant things, any car owner may
expect the very best service from
his storage batteries.

and this may be due to bent float
mechanism, a stuck float or if there
is a foat-level adjustment there may
be some difficulty with this.
The absence of a hot-air or hot
water jacket may also produce all
, the symptoms of too weak charge,
particularly in cold weather. A hot
air stove is a necessary adjunct to
almost all carburetors not equipped
With hot water jacket.
Naturally any obstruction to the
free flow of fuel will result in a lean
mixture. There may be dirt in the
pipe or in the holes of the nozzle
Too rich a mixture may be caused
by a worn needle or nozzle, but is
usually due to too high fuel level.
a stuck or bent float mechanism or
dirt under the float valve may be
the cause. If the float is made of
cork the shelac may gradually dis
solve and the fuel will soak into it,
making it heavier and consequently
raising the level Similarly a pin
hole in a metal float will allow gaso-
line to enter and weight it. The cork
float may be repaired by drying in
an oven and then shellacking It
again: and the metal float, by enlarg-
ing the hole draining the gasoline
out, and then closing it with a little
solder.
Adjust Carburetor.
Before adjustment OF the carburetor
is attempted the motor should be
allowed to run until it is thoroughly
warm and the spark should be ad-
vanced about two-thirds of the way.
The secret of successful carbu-
rotor adjusting is patience. Each
screw or nut must be varied a little
at a time until the best position is
obtained.
The easiest way to determine
which is the best setting is to run
the car up test hill after each
change Approach the bottom of the
hill at the same speed each time, de-
press the accelerator at a given point
each time, and then note the speed
attained at the top.
If there is no hill avTlable an
acceleration test will prove to be
an excellent substitute Approach a
given point at a given speed, and
on passing depress the accelerator
and note what the speed is when
passing some other point. - Motor

No Word From TeAer on
National Commission Fight

New York, Nov. 2. President
John K. Tener, of the National League,
was out of the city yesterday and no
one In authority at headquarters here
would express an opinion regarding
the probable meaning of Ban John
sons remarks regarding the formation
OF the National Commission.
1t vas stated that year ago john
son announced that he would not vote
for the reelection of Garry Hermann
as chairman of the commission and
that the annual meeting was post
poned from time to time, but when
the commission finally conferred
Hermann was elected for another
term.
The chairman of the National Com
mission is elected annually by the votes
of the two major league presidents,
which means that both Johnson and
Tener must agree upon the third
member, since a difference of opinion
would result in a deadlock. AS both
league presidents are automatically
members of the commission at present
constituted, the only way in which the
complexion of the body could be
changed would be the election of a
third member not affiliated with either
league in place of August Hermann.

Nine. Johanna Gadski was born

Nine. Johanna Gadski was born in
Stettin, Germany, and there, when 10
years old, began the study of
Gadski music under Nine. Schroeder
Chalupka. Her professional
debut was made in the title role of
Lortzing's opera, "Undine." So pro-
nounced was her success that she was
promptly re-engaged for three seasons.
during which she sang leading parts,
appearing with such artists as Nine.
Sembrich and Nine. Lilli Lehman. In
1894, following a concert tour through
Germany and Holland she was heard
by Walter Damrosch, who Immediately
made her an offer to appear in opera in
the United States.
From the moment of her American
debut, Nine. Gadski's fame was assur-
ed. She made her first appearance as
Elsa in "Lohengrin," and her triumph
was little short of sensational. For two
seasons she remained member of the
Damrosch- Ellis company, constantly
increasing her repertoire. Her essay
of the great Wagnerian parts was the
step that placed her promptly on the
limited role of the elect. Her first APP
pearance in this city will be as the
