CLOGGED FUEL LINE
EASY TO DIAGNOSE
Expert Tells How Owner May
Determine What Ails
His Car.

"One of the most battling troubles for
the novice to locate is an obstruction in
the gasolene line from tank to carburet-
err" says Vim. II. Stewart, Jr., president
CT the Stewart Automobile School. Some
carbureters have a strainer where the
gasolene enters the float chamber, and
others have a strainer on some part OF
the gasolene line There is one on the
vacuum tank where the supply from
the main tank enters at the top. These
are all easily removed for cleaning. but
sometimes clogging occurs at bend in
the pipe and then It is not so easily
reached. In such cases the pipe Is re.
moved from the carbureter and the op-
orator blows back against the stoppage
This frequently loosens it and the gas.
olene is allowed TO flow, carrying the
dirt with It
This trouble usually comes on grad
ually, few pieces OF lint, chan, dust
&c, accommodating on the strainer and
not doing any harm, as there is plenty
of room around them for the passage
Of the gasolene. But soon the accumu-
lation only allows enough gasolene to
pass through to run the engine at nor
NAL speed. The driver does not know
this. but when he tries to speed up the
engine II does not respond. The gaso-
lene cannot flow through fast enough &c
satisfy the increased demand. making
the engine sluggish. Then more dirt
arrives and the engine weakens may
backfire at the carbureter' and soor
stops. Gasoline can get through. but
not fast enough to supply the engine
While searching for the trouble the float
chamber fills and the engine may be
started. Tins is the characteristic
symptom OF a clogged gasolene line
The engine stops, but may be started
after time, only to stop again.
"Where a strainer is easily accessible
Il is we'll to clean It occasionally. bu,
the average operator waits until tbs
above symptoms develop. When they
occur as described above there can be
no doubt about the trouble, so the only
thing TO do Is to remove the strainer
and clean IT."

A Tire Tip.

:. A T last I've got my day In
~ court" said a Michelin tire
as 1t carpe over the adjust
ers counter, MY trouble has been
30 different from the run of tire trials
that I'm really glad that have
landed here. although I am torn and
tortured. My story may keep other
tires out of trouble"
Tho Michelin tire man, who could
tell by a glance what allied the tires
that were presented to him for ad-
justment, shook his head and said:
Here Is q sad story. ] see creep
ing rim has ruined you. Go ahead
and tell me just how 1t happened"
"Oh, It was not only a creeping
rim that got me-" replied the tire
quickly. IT am the victim Of a bent,
loose and rusty rim, too. I have had
several wallops Aom a hammer with
which my owner was trying to pound
on the rim. Every time he missed
the rim he gave my side wall an
awful blow and weakened 1t badly.
1.-THE bend In the rim caused a bad
break Just above the bead. Then my
owner was forever going around with
loose rim. When one of the wedges
became loose the rim began to work
and gradually the other wedges be-
came loose. Finally, the whole strain
came on my valve and 1t pulled Off.
"Even when on one or two occa-
sions my owner tried to tighten up
things he got the wedges in unevenly
and the result was 'wabbly' life for
me. Finally, rust on the rim cor
roded me and the inner tube Now,
what do you think OF that? Do you
wonder that I am here2 My owner
needs one of your instruction books
right away. 1t won't help me any.
but it may give some other tire fair
chance"

tire had possessed a copy Of Miche-
Inns Tire Users Handbooks, he would
have known better how TO preserve
his property All Michelin's dealers

PEACE ENJOYS EXPENSES.

]
Last weeks Tribune touched on the
heavy expense to this country Of its
hilarious peace commission to France,
with request to keep your eye peeled
for an expose. Here you have dose as
furnished by Henry Wales, special cor
respondent for the Chicago Tribune.
/ Remember, the Hotel de Crillon is re
puted to be the finest hotel in Paris
Secretary Joseph Crew is worried
because somebody gave permission to
the waters to open a hundred bottles
of champagne at the peace commission
dance in the Hotel de CrlIon dining
room which lasted until just before day
break The Crillon il supposed to be
bone dry.
Nobody knows who ordered the
walters to begin popping the corks at
the Fourth of July dance, as Only in
nocuons punch was ordered served. On
/ the bill for dance incidentals this partie
ular morning was an item for hundred
bottles Of champagne.
The CriIlon comprises 280 rooms
with capacity Of 400 guests and has
been jammed with nonpaying members
of the peace commission since it opened
last November Commissioners Lans-
ing. House. White, and Gen Bliss lived
there with their families and stats,
and also various experts who composed
special commissions
THE Crillon kept its original French
staff Of employees, numbering 2l6, and
added $50 American doughboys as cleo
tricians and plumbers. There also are
doormen, elevator men, clerks, cooks,
orderlies, and messengers. Thus there
always was an average Of one servant
for every guest in the hotel.
Seventy big automobiles, chiefly
luxurious limousness, always were
parked in the Place de la Concorde for
members Of the peace commission when
they wished to attend conferences or 10 |
go racing through the Bots de Bologue.
Peace conference automobiles also in
variably took the Crilon residents to
dinner at restaurants and to the thea
ters afterwards.
Nobody knows how much rent Uncle
Sam must pay the Crillon owners
monthly, because no definite sum ever
was fixed. This is said to be due to the
fact that Ambassador Sharp urged that
the Americans should not 'haggle' with
the French about a few dollars, as he
gave assurances the French hotel own
ers would not attempt anything exor-
bitant.
The proprietors of the Crillon prop
erty, however, have already filed a
claim with the peace commission for
1900. 600 francs allowance for loss Of
clientele through the fact the hotel was
closed to regular customers. 1t is ex-
pected another staggering bill will be
presented for wear and tear on the |
Crillon and its furniture.
The peace commission hopes to pay |
as rent the average monthly sum earned |
by the hotel for the five years before
the war plus certain percentage as
extra profits, but it is understood the
Crillon owners have different and large
er ideas in mind.
Note Since the foregoing was put
in type the reading public has been
assured that the dancers paid the ex-
penses Of the dance. As no further
denial Of what was reported on the
blowout was made, what other con.
clusion is there than that. otherwise il
stands approved
