QUICKLY SOLD his
ALUMINIUM WARE
]. H. snider Says West
Virginian Advertising
Turned the Trick

The percolator and aluminium
ware sale which started at Snider's
furniture store yesterday was much
larger than was expected. Large
crowds eager to take advantage OF
the low prices on these two articles
filled the store all day. It was
thought when the sale started that
there would be enough aluminium
sets to last two or three days, but
the entire lot was gone before two
O'Clock in the afternoon, and many
people we're disappointed.
The only medium that Mr.. Snider
used to advertise his sale was The
West Virginian, and he said this
morning that the results were very.
very much larger than he expected.
Besides the sales OF percolators
and aluminium sets. he also made
several large sales Of furniture to
people who were drawn to the store
bv the sale. Mr.. Snider remarked
shat any store could dispose or
merchandise quicly, II the right
prices were given and advertising
is properly used"

Aeld In on

The reason why the oil in the
crankcase should be changed after
every 500 miles is given by the
makers Of the Cleveland car. They
say the poor grade Of gasoline now
used cannot thoroughly vaporize,
with the result that part of it
works down past the plstons into
the crankcase. This oil with the
heated oil in the crankcase forms
principally sulphuric acid which
attacks all working parts OF the
motor For this reason the crank
case should be drained often and
new oil put in.
