you see. Also it does away with old
man carbon and his knock. thereby
reducing" -. I didn't hear the rest
of the charm because the Fairy God
mother, having passed bottle into my
hand, began enchanting another nene-
ticiary.
1 took the Fairy Godmother's gift to
the Tiny Six. which chuckled as it re-
ccivcd it. gave i. one spoonful as |
began on each gallon OF gas. The
effect was Ike tha. Cindcrella's Fairy
Godmother produced when she turned
the pumpkin into coach.
The Tiny Six became that eschewed
thing pleasure car. The gasolene
consumption dropped 40 per cent, just
as Godmothcr had promised. We ran
thirty miles to the gallon now and the
car was a thing Of life.
In distant bower that was all great
rings Of rubber stood the Fairy Cod
mother Of the Cord. "Your wish is
instantly granted said she. al hand
you this cord tire and you hand me
something and then the charm will
work. Thirty per cent Of your gaso
lone is the least you will save because
the traffic wave Of this tire won't get
in your way and it won't always be
climbing on itself
Now this godmothcr was better than
nor word, and counting the longer
coasting l did I saved another 40 per
! cent on gas, making a total saving of
81 per cent The gasolcnc mileage was
now fifty to the gallon.
Tablets, Tablets was the cry OF
FAIRY Godmoshcr No 3. who said saw
irr gasolene was her sole object in life.
"Throw in a tablet and hear her kick!
'"as tho peculiarly worded injunction
that she gave with her gift But
dropped in tablet every hour and
soon there was more power than ever
before. In the course of q week
found there had been saving, as
promised. of 25 per cent on gas. or a
total saving SO far of Is per cent. The
gasolcnc mileage had risen to sixty-six
! to the gallon.
Next we met the auxiliary air intake
said, ''and just turn it on when you
are running at about eighteen miles an
. hour and your car will leap from that
/ to twenty-five miles an hour, just by
burning more air." So / accepted her
/ gift and the car leaped from eighteen
to twenty-six miles an hour at the
turning in of the air. The gas con-
! sumption was cut 20 per cent as the
Fairy Godmother had promised, and
had achieved total saving of 80 pei
cent. The mileage had risen to eighty
two to the gallon.
Not far from that booth was the
steambath auxilia@y-for gasolene -ex-
plosions booth and Fairy Godmothel
whose charm was "Steam, steam, bub
bles of steam!" She made incarnation
with pot of hot water and told Of
driving the carbon devil out Of the
motor in fakes like black snow flying
before winter gale. She would just
blow her breath and it would happen
After had SUCCESSFULLY used ali the
gifts Of the other godmothers let the
steam fairy do a little work for me
and the Tiny Six. The gasolene con.
sumption, as promised, dropped almost
Is per cent and the car ran in a per
retual sweetness of temper. That was
! fascinating. except when some steam
condensed in the cylinders after run
! fixed that by turning off the Fairy
Godmother's gift, just before haltine
Tor the night, and so my gasolene mil
cage rose to ninctysix to the gallon.
we were now approaching that eco
( nomy of gas that we desired, but there
! were still remaining gifts from tho
Fairy Godmothers to be tried. First
! there was the very expensive lubricat-
ing oil that -. the horse
| millionaire, uses in all his cars AS he
keeps books on every car and uses
Fords for the most part for his own
use. although furnishing featherbed
cars for his friends, and swears that
he can use this high test oil three
times over, this Fairy Godmother was
hardened to. "Use this oil and you'll
have practically no carbon to get out
and your gasolene consumption viii
decrease 10 per cent" SO it did. The
mileage rose to 100 to the gallon, and
our gasolene purveyor went into bank
ruptcy with heavy liabilities to shor
measure gas pump concern.
Now came the "peppiest" of all the
Fairy Godmothers. az give you gas
olene that will stretch and stretch
YOUR mileage" said she "Mileacs
will be like rubber band to you. JUS
put my magic liquid in your tank ant
you can pull out many more miles" Sc
it proved. The gasolene consumption
nronned 30 per cent, the mileage rose
to 155 to the gallon.
Now I want TO meet that green gaso
lene man. With his stuff l ought t
be able to tote the Tiny Six about OF
my shoulder at a cost OF one-thrty
sixth of cent to the mile.
