Advice to Motorists Who Prefer
Not to Eat Dust All Day.
Average Motorlst 10 Learning That
There Are Two Kinds Of Highways
Ono 10 Main Road Utilized
Mostly by Speeders.

There are at least two distinctive
classes Of m0tOr-car drivers. One in
cludes those who desire to get from a
given point to another given point in
the shortest possible time. The other
enjoys motoring because the automO-
bile gives one a chance to see the
beauties Of nature. to seek out quiet
and primitive spots, and to view the
country at its best. There Is a sharp
line between the two. Most Of the
casualty lists are made up Of men,
bers of the first. Accidents to the driv-
er who Is in no particular hurry are
more i%nfrequent.
A man who has driven a car for sew
eral years says that one can tell the
speed of a a without a device that
registers the number of miles an hour.
When the car Is going 20 to % miles
an hour there Is plenty Of
ton on the back seat. The occupants
point out things Of interest and cOm-
ment thereon. When the speed gets
up to IS or 40 miles an hour there is
less talking, and when a higher mark
is attained there is dead silence. Ev-
erybody In the car has his eyes glued
on the road ahead, and is hopeful that
nothing will happen. There is no time
and no inclination to talk. ever IL the
rush Of air would permit It.
Happily, the average motorlst does
not drive at an excessive speed. and
1t is the average motorist who Is learn
ing that there are two kinds Of high
ways. One kind is the main road be-
tween cities. much utilized by speed
ers-the drivers who watch the
speedometer and who brag on what
they have been able to "get out of
her."
The other kind Of driver is learning
that there usually is a back road. At
this season Of the year many Of these
back roads are in better condition than
the main highways. They are smooth
er and there is less dust. Little traf-
fc is met, and the surrounding III
try, as a rule, is prettier and more pas
toral. The man who seeks out these
back roads may have to drive a few
miles farther than II he had kept to
the main Travelled ways, but the quiet
and beauty of the scene more than pay
for the extra gasoline.

despite the educational campaign
carried on by battery manufacturers. a
great majority Of motorists still con-
tinue to treat their starting battery as
q mystery, and the same question is
occurring day after day. When should
a battery be repaired and when should
1t be thrown away?
The answer to this is, "Put yourself
In the hands of an expert and at the
same time bear the following points in
mind" says f. T. Kalas, manager of
a battery depot in Washington.
slave your battery opened for your
own inspection, and all s%eparators re-
moved, so that the entire surface of
the individual plates may be readily
seen.
Expense Of ReInsulating.
IF the examination shows that the
positive plates "a chocolate brown in

ply a case of reinsulating the plates

ly one-sixth the cost Of a new battery.
In some makes of batteries a very
thin wood separator or insulating ma
terial is used. and, Judging from care
fully kept records, extending over a
period Of one year, these very thin
separators break down in approxi-
mately eight months time, whereas
the thicker type Of separators last
twice as long.
III the positive plates are severely
warped or show excessive loss Of ma.
terial, a new set of positive plates and
new separators are necessary. The
cost of this repair is approximately 30
per cent of the cost Of a new battery,
and such repairs would give a battery
life about equal to the life obtained
from the first set Of positive plates.
In many cases the life is longer, as
the owner Of a new car usually abuses
the car and the battery in the early
part Of its life. Repair or renewal OF
positive plates is perfectly safe, as the
negative plates are almost equal In life
to two sets Of positive plates.
Purchase New Battery.
IF the examination shows that the
negative plates are excessively worn
in addition to the positive plates 1t Is
then advisable to purchase a new bat
terry, as the cost Of repairs in a case
Of this kind is excessive by compare

There may be some slight varia.
lions from the above principles. but
they area Exceedingly few and rare.

BREEDING GUINEA PIGS

Guinea pigs breed at a very
early age. but their capacity for
reproduction has been greatly
exaggerated and a mistaken no.
ton has become fixed In the
minds Of many people.
Ordinarily five filters may be
expected In a year. averaging
about three young each. The
first litter produced by a female
usually consists Of but one or
two. Subsequent ones are COM
monty larger, but they rarely
number more than five or six. A
female in her breeding prime
may be expected to raise about
II to Is young each year.

HOW BRAKES ARE ADJUSTED
Not Advisable to Remove Slack At
Same Plaes-Flrst on Rods, Next
On Bands, Etc.

In taking up on the brakes do not
always remove the slack at the same
place. There usually are two or three
places in the brake assembly where a
"take-up" is possible. and each time
the brakes are adjusted q different
place should be used. The first time
take up the rods at the rear. the next
time at the brake bands. etc.
