THE EsTA PROVES ITS VALUE.
This Carbon, Eliminator Has Many
Enthusiastic boosters.

The number of Esta Carbon Elimina-
| tors that are being delivered every day
convinces one that with present day
gasolene, motorists have classed 1t as a
necessary device and not non-essentPl.
The Esta is known for making friends
wherever It is sold, and In the city of
Boston, where it is manufactured, 5000
Estas were sold between July 1 and the
gasless Sundays last summer. One of
the most prominent gasolene engineers
In the country, in talking with F. b.
Wright, factory representative, recently,
said that the Esta gave considerably
more power, due to the fact that 1t low
cred the temperature of the incoming
mixture after 1t had passed through the
carbureter and was mixed just before
the explosion. This causes greater diff
ference in temperature, which. of course.
means more stretch and power and
a stronger explosion The Esta cannot
cause rust as 1t introduces moist air, not
water, into the cylinders where the tenn
perature of the explosion is approx!-
matety $500 degrees. Consequently
there is no chance for rust.
Mr.. Wright says that not only has the
Esta made friends among car and truck
owners but is used extensively on motor
beats.

decline. The automobile industry is not

A new automobile lock has entered
the New York field through the closing
Of negotiations Of the F. o. 3. Manufac-
turing Company with the Wagner Spe-
cialty Company, 1909 Broadway. near
Sixty-third street, which Is well known
in automobile circles as distributors of
high grade automobile specialties.
The lock Is the F. o. B. combination

cessfully on automobiles in Philadelphia
radically from other theft protection de-
vices In locking with a combination like
a safe Instead of with a key. Tw!rling
the dial locks the car and turning to the
three number combination releases it.
The F. o. B. lock is fixed on the steer
ing column and acts on the steering gear.
It holds the wheels in a straight line,
defeating the thieves by making 1t i'm
possible for them to turn corners in eff
forts to drive or tow the car away.
The manufacturers claims that the
lock is unbeatable are supported by the
Underwriters Laboratories, which for
mally approved the lock. thus reducing
theft insurance premiums on cars
equipped with 1t. The lock is made of
aluminium steel, is about Ave inches long
by two inches wide and can be attached
to any car
First class installation service for the
lock is assured New York motorists
throuhg the Wagner Speciality Company,
which is already equipped to attach the
