TIP FOR MOTORISTS.
How 10 Remove Greasy Dirt From,
Your Lily White Hands.


The owner OF car who cares for his
vehicle TO large extent generally
makes up his mind to having dirty
hands when some periodic and greasy
Job falls due. There Is no real need
FOR this, as little care beforehand will
obviate the retention OF the greasy dirt
afterward. Before starting work on
n greasy piece OF machinery take cyl.
inder oil>and rub II well into the skin.
After the work In done do not take the
CRIME or by rubbing the hands on
waste or cloth. Instead put on some
more cylinder oil or any light oil lib.
orally, using Il as you would soap and
water. When the oil has worked un.
der the grease and cut II loose from
the skin wipe the hands thoroughly a,
a piece OF waste, When you have wip-
Cd or the oil you will find that II has
taken the CRIME with II. leaving the
hands ready for good wash with soap
and water II the motorlst win try a
tar soap for this final stage he win be
surprised at the results obtained Ker.
osene. gasoline or washing powders
should not be used, as they harden tho
skin and give II tendency to crack.
When on the road the hands can be
made fairly presentable by using the
oil wash alone, leaving the soap and
water until reaching the destination.
This method Of keeping the hands In
shape is used by many OF the mechan.
les In big repair shops and In motorcar
factories. II Is a particularly useful
tip Just at this time. when ali the
cars In America are being run ont OF
the garages for their seasons work.
most Of them by owners. who have no
decided preference FOR dirty hands.
