''HUM0" DEVICE
GAINSSUCCESS
Flood of Testimonials Ies-
tify to Approval of
Motorists.

Humo. the gasoline purifier, which
has lust been put on the market by
Me Humo Sales Company. 1870
Fourteenth street northwest. is BE-
ing met with general approval OF
motorists. Those who have tried
the new invention attest to the
strict performance of its duty OF
cleaning gasoline of all impurities
such as usually clog the carbureter
and develop carbon in the engine.
The company has been flooded
with testimonials from owners OF
automobiles and trucks who have
tried the invention. Not only does
Humo lessen the amount OF carbon
which develops. but it actually de-
livers more mileage TO the gallon
of gas. Col H p. Hobbs. in letter
to the company this week. gave
detailed list of the increase in mile
age which he obtained after the in
staIlation of the invention.
Many truck owners of the city
who have given il a trial now are
demanding installations as quickly
as possible. as it has practically
obviated carhureter and engine
trouble for III m. Such troubles
cause delay and loss of use of the
trucks which are costly. The cost
of the installation of the new ma
chine is small in comparison with
the saving it makes in keeping
truck lines in the running con-
stantly.
I Not a few OF the letters received
I by the company, in addition to eX-
planning the additional mileage per
/ gallon of gasoline. testify to the in
creased power of the gasoline which
/ does not get through the cleaner to

Cleaning the Car.

The body of the car should be
cleaned with CASTLE soap and water.
Mud should not be rubbed of but
rather should be washed off by flow
ing a gentle stream of water over
the spot. This floats the mod on
without injury TO the polished sur
face. If mud is permitted to remain
on a new body until IL dries hard 1t
almost always leaves a spot; conse-
quently removal should be immedi-
ate. If spotsTof road oil get on the
body they should be removed by an
application of salt butter, which
Iloosens ihe oil. or by the local appli-
cation of kerosene. Be careful not
to rub them too much. The tor
should not be cleaned with gaso'
line or similar liquids. Soap sud'
and water should be used inside and
outside. For the upholstery a little
linseed oil on piece of cloth rubbed
over IT will work wonders.
