IF Thin AND NERVOUS,

While excessive thinness might be at

that the lack of sufficient PHOSPHORUS in

author and professor in his book, Chem

says: 80 that the amount of phos-
phorous required for the normal nutrition
of man is seriously underestimated in many
of our standard text books"
1t seems to be well established that this
deficiency in PHOSPHORUS may now be met
by the use of an organic phosphate known
throughout English speaking countries as
of this phosphate by the nerve tissue the
phosphoric content when absorbed in the
amount normally required by nature soon
produces welcome change in our body and

Every tire has embossed on the side
the car owner should have a record Of
this number in each case and such rec
ord should be made when the tire Is
bought.
A lap robe, a gunny Sack, or even
some old newspapers will frequently
be enough to get a car out of deep
sand or a mudhole if placed in front Of
the rear wheels to provide traction.
In inspecting the springs attention
should be given to the spring hangers
and other subsidiary parts. Lost mo-
ton, usually side play, often develops
in the spring hangers and shackles.
Motorists frequently overload their
storage batteries by the use of cleo
trical accessories not included in the
cars regular equipment and then Won
der what's wrong.
Many drivers do not know how to
take the bumps easily. A good way
is to throw out the clutch and apply
the footbrake gradually.
Watch the wires where they fasten
to the lamps, as the motion of the car
makes them sway aud may cause a
break or short circuit.
Lack of attention to the way the
rear wheels are running Is source of
subsequent financial loss to automo-
bilists.
The total number of cars registered
in all Of the states during 1919 will
probably be close to 100000.

GETTING RID OF ROAD TAR
Must Be Attended To Promptly or
UnsishtIy Streaks and Spots Will
Be the Result.

Unless washed off promptly with
soap and water, road tar will quickly
harden on car, leaving unsightly
streaks and spots. There are several
good ways Of removing it, however.
One consists in the application of but
ter or oleomargarine which will soften
the tar without injuring the varnsh.
Another good solvent is cocoa butter,
which is used in the theatrical profess
sion for removing grease paint. This
can be purchased at drug stores, and
is a harmless solvent of all kinds Of
oil and grease, as we'll as tar.

AMERICAS LOW PERCENTAGE
Only II Per Cent of Present Mileage
Is lmproved-Little Butt for
Heavy Traffic.

The American public, though fast
becoming awakened to advantages to
be enjoyed by improved roads, may
not realize the immense effort which
must be eXerted to catch up with Eu-
ropean nations highway systems.
When Germany entered the war in
1914, Prussia alone had $4,000 miles
of hard-surfaced highways. In pro-
portion to the size of the two coun-
tries, the United States would need
to have 1,611,914 miles. The present
road mileage in the states is 100000,
of which II per cent is improved and
only one-quarter of l per cent con-
structed for heavy traffic.

Dimensions of Drum.


A solid piece of oak, about eight
inches in diameter should be turned
out in the shape of a cylinder five
inches long. For large cars this may
be increased in size. SurmOunt the
drum with a disk, somewhat larger, to
act as a rim, and bore a hole in the
opposite end of the drum just large
enough to fit snugly over the hub of
the wheel. Then make three arms of
strap iron, large enough to reach a
good way up the spokes of the wheel.
Bolt these at equal distances around
the circumference of the drum, setting
them in flush.
How Hosting Is Done.
To operate, back the car up until it
Is near the tackle, and jack up the
wheel upon which the drum has been
placed. The other wheel must be
blocked so that it will not turn. Give
the hauling rope a few turns about
the drum, then apply the power to the
wheel and at the same time pull easily
upon the rope, keeping it taut on the
drum. In this way heavy loads can be
raised that would otherwise be beyond
the ability Of one man to handle.-L. B.
