Pull Out the Nail
--And Forget It

That's what you can do
and will do, when your tires
are treated with Ohio Pune
ture Plugger, the compound
which automatically seals all
punctures from the smallest
up to the size of a thirty
penny spike.
There's nothing more dis
concerning to the average
. motorist, whether travelling
on business or pleasure, than
to hear Swish, swish" of the
air as it leaves a tire. It.
takes all the pleasure out of
the trip, delays the business
and professional man, and
causes most of us to shatter
one of the ten command
ments all to pieces. The
weather is never "just right"
to change a tire on the road
its either too hot or too
cold-and it's back breaking
work to properly initiate a big
tire when we're away from
the free air tanks.
Every time you remove a
casing from the rim you are
injuring it to a certain extent
and lessening it's life. Proper
imitation at all times adds
greatly to the life of a tire,
and this. is accomplished
through the use of Ohio
Puncture Plugger. By its
use your tires are kept up all
the time, and they never have
to be removed from the wheel
until they are worn out, or
damaged from glass or rock
cuts.
The pro-
tects you-read it!
ut is hereby guaranteed
that Ohio Puncture Plugger
is not affected in it's opera
ton by heat or cold. That
it will not interfere with the
resiliency of the tires. That
it will not injure tubes or
castings. That it will not
harden, gum, dry up or de-
teriorate with use. That it
will not stick tube to casing.
That it will stop all pune
lures from the smallest to
the size of a thirty-penny
spike"
W. will demonstrate the
above facts to your s~atisfac-
ton.
