RESERVE SUPPLY OF ......s
TUBES HELPS TO KEEP
Il, TIRE EXPENSE DOWN

The care Of tubes In an important
item for the consideration of the mo-
torist who wants to keep his expenses
down. Not only Is there reduction
In the expense ofsreplacing tubes, but
there is the greatest saving on &C
count of the casing. A bad tube sud.
denly letting the weight Of q heavy
car down onto the flattened casing
causes untold damage which can
never be recovered. This damage is,
Of course, increased II 1t becomes
necessary to drive the car ON TO the
nearest garage for changing.
BY far the cheapest way out of such
q dilema IL for the motorist to keep
q reserve supply of one or two gooo
tubes in his car, so that changes may
be made Immediately at the eide Of
his car on the road. j~s,s =,
In speaking upon this point, Waiter
Wise, local manager of the Fisk Rub
Der company says: Never run q car
on fiat tire; keep q spare tube on
hand ready for immediate use. A
short run Of no more than half a
mile, no matter how slowly driven,
causes q breaking down Of the casing
fabrics, which cannot be repaired.
Hundreds Of miles are taken out of
the life of o tire by such practice.
The only remedy-and simple one
Is to carry spare tube, so that a
change may be made instantly.
