CRANKCASE ILLS
OF MOTOR CARS
SlstiIIation Tests Of Lubricant
Made by Engineer Of Ma
tionaI Reputation.
GASOLINE HAD LEAKED OUT
Figures Given Should Form IIIuminat-
ing Comment OF Troubles Motor
lists Are HavIng-Dificulty
Solved in TWO Ways.

An engineer of national reputation,
who has been making distillation tests
of lubricant taken from the c~rankcases
of motorcars, reports in one typical
case that 45 per cent of the supposed
oil In the crankcase was nothing more
nor less than gasoline which had not
been consumed and had leaked down
past the pistons. Only 37h per cent
of good lubricating oil was found-oil
that is really suited for fabrication of
he cylinder walls and piston rings.
Nor was this a neglected car. The oil
had been in the crankcase only nine
days and a grade of gasoline testing So
Baume had been used.
The test figures were checked by a
government chemist and are %incontro-
yertible. They should form an illumi-
mating comment on the trouble motor
lists are having in these days of low
gravity fuels.
Solving Difficulty.
The difficulty, say the experts, is to
be solved only in W. ways-more fire.
quent changing of the Oil in the crank
case and greater care in the purchase
and use of low grade or "stale'' gaso-
line.
at is not uncommon" says the edi-
tor of Motor Age, "for a car to start
on a tour with the gasoline tank filled
with a good grade of gasoline and run
beautifully for the first two days, per-
haps, or until a fresh supply of gaso-
line is taken on at some small out-of-
town garage or country store. Then,
before long, n noticeable loss of power
manifests itBelf in the engine.
"There 10 nothing more distressing
than the gloom of impending engine
trouble. So. think of the gasoline first
and you may find the source of that
power loss. The trouble caused by
poor gasoline is an Elusive one and
generally gives the inexperienced op-
orator no end of p~erplexity in laying
his hands on the difficulty.
Facilitate Starting.
s'In trouble of this kind, to facilitate
starting, one should drain a half to a
cupful of gasoline from the float cham
Der of the c%arburetor. This will re-
move water and dirt If it is that which
Is giving trouble.
"The operation should be followed
by printing the cylinders with gasoline
and then holding a cloth saturated
with gasoline yer the air intake Of
the carburetor while the starter is OPP
Grated. If the engine runs with power
on the printing mixture and then dies
down to less power when the tank gas
oline is being used, it is well to as
cIIron fhof tho frnrhIn 10 uifhtn tho
gasoline itself, and the remedy Is to re-
place the gasoline Immediately. IL this
is not possible, change the carburetor
mixture for more gas until a new sup
ply is available"

FILLING BATTERY roo FULL
As Bad as Not Putting In Any Water
X as Overflow Runs Into Bottom,
Eating 1t Out.

Filling your battery too full is as
bad as not putting any water into it
at all.
When the cells are too full, rough
riding or a rapid charging of the bat
terry due to long sustained or rapid
driving forces the electrolyte to over
flow and run down into the bottom Of
the battery box. 1t is only a short
time until the acid fluid will eat the
bottom out.
The motorist should keep in mind
that while it is pure distilled water
he puts into the cells, it is not water,
but diluted acid that overflows. This
acid will corrode both wood and steel.
In filling the battery cover the plates
with about a half inch of water. More
than this is unnecessary. This depth
will allow for the movement of cleo
trolyte caused by rough driving or
rapid charging.

Within ten minutes after an appli-
cation of Danderine you can not find q
single trace Of dandruff or falling hair
and your scalp will not itch, but what
will please you most will be after a few
weeks use, when you see new hair, fine
and downy at first-yes-but really
new hair-growing all over the scalp.
A little Danderine Immediately dou-
bles the beauty Of YOU hair. No diff
ference how dull, faded, brittle and
scraggy, just moisten a cloth with DaL
derine and carefully draw 1t through
your hair. taking one small strand at e
time. The effect Is amazing-your hail
will be light. fluffy and wavy. and have
al appearance of abundance; an in.
comparable lustre. softness and luxu-
rance.
Get a small bottle of Knowlton's
Danderine for q few ceats at any drug
store or toilet counter, and prove that
your hair Is as pretty and soft as any
that 1t has been neglected or injured
by careless treatment-that's all-you
surely can have beautiful hair and lots
of 1t If you will just try a little Dam
derine.-Adv.

ONE WHEEL BECOMES LOCKED
Trouble Is Due to Fact That There Is
Too Much Play in Brake Link
aqc-How t. Remedy.

The wner who is not diligent and
neglects the parts he does not see or
which do not give trouble usually may
find some time that upon starting one
of the wheels becomes locked, even
though the brake pedal and lever r
free. This is due to the fact that
there is so much play in the brake
linkage that when the hand brake
lever is released it merely takes up
the play, leaving the unlubricated
mechanism set in holding position.
This happened recently, and a ham
mer had to be used to loosen the brake
mechanism. If you should have fuel
feed trouble which you cannot explain
1t may be caused by pieces Of solder
In the gas tank.

of a private garage avoided the neces-
sity of keeping the doors open by
piping the exhaust outside, as shown
in the illustration. An old drain pipe
was used for the purpose. 1t was o
nected in such a way that when the
automobile was backed into the ga
rage the end Of the exhaust pipe en-
tered the end of the drain pipe. This
led down to the floor, where a long
piece ran through the wall to the out
side and carried all unpleasant or dam
gerous fumes to the outside, leaving
the interior free from the poisonous
carbon monoxide gas.

100000 Men Called.

AS n further step, carrying the
war departments plan to have 100000
men under arms Aug. 1. Provost Mar
shall General Crowder last night called
on the governors of all states except
Arizona and Illinois for the mobiliza-
tion between July % and Is OF 100000
white draft registrants qualified for
general military service.
This call is. expected virtually to ex-
haust the number OF men now in Class
l. vailable for active military service.
and when added to school acquisitions
of 23,434 men, brings the total calls so
far announced for July to 243,436. To
complete its program for the remainder
of the present year. the department
will have to depend on the 100000 Glass
! registrants expected from the June
5 enrolment and the 250,0Ob or 100000
to be obtained thru the reclassification
now in progress.
In the cali announced last night
New York leads the list with 22,241
men: Iowa is second with 17,S49, and
Wisconsin third with 13,200.
Missouri Is called upon for 1900
men to be sent to Camp Funston. Kan
sas. ands Indiana will send 200 to
Camp Taylor. Ky.
Illinois July allotment Is considered
as being already in service because of
an error in the June call which was
discovered too late to be corrected in
that cali. Provost Marshal General
Crowder ruled that the inequality
should be adjusted by exempting lii
nois from the July quota.

TESTING GERMAN MORALE.
British Make Frequent Thrusts Against
New Garrisons.

British Make Frequent 1hrusts Against
New Garrisons.
lBy the Associated Press.1
With the British Army in France,
June 25.-British raiders still are tap
ping the German line between Flan-
ders and the Somme, sampling the
garrisons new to the battle front in
order to test their strength and the
state Of the concentration in the camps
behind.
In one battle today twenty-one men
with an officer and ten machine guns
were brought in south OF Arras and
from the upper side of the river Scarpe
six prisoners were brought back by q
raiding party.
Heavy l,orrhardrnen.s are being Id
on the British trenches at odd hours.
Some Of them are in the nature OF
rehearsal barrages, but the German
infantry keeps quietly In its own
trenches.
The German spirit Of retaliation is
cMiously weak. especially in the Sec
tor west Of Bailleul where the British
have made series Of successful at
tacks during the last month without
having had to give up any Of the cap
tured ground.
Two attempts were made yesterday
by the enemy to take back trenches
lost Monday morning. Both efforts
failed.
German gunners have been dlstr-
buting large quantities Of gas in for
ward areas.
