cables are required. The magnetic
magnets may have become weakened
and need recharging, or the magnets
and coils may have more than the re-
quired 1-s2 inch clearance Dirt may
have worked in under the magnetic con-
tact springs. which can be removed
when the binding post on the crank
case cover is removed.
]. A. NJ. asks: How much lost mo-
ton is allowable in the drive shaft of
It.
Answer This is a rather difficult
question to answer definitely. Quite
likely you do not refer strictly to the
lost motion in the drive shaft itself,
but to the total lost motion between
the front universal and the rear wheels,
which is made up of a number of fac
tors. Practically speaking, this back
lash is detrimental mainly because
there is usually a distinct shock and
noise when the car Is started from
rest and almost always when its di-
rection of motion is reversed. This
lost motion means that the universals
are worn, that the gear teeth involved
have too much clearance, that the
wheels are loose on the axle-shafts or
something Of this kind and, if 1t be
comes excessive there are severe start
ing stresses imposed on the gears and
the whels loosn up fast. We should
enough so that when the car starts
into motion there is a sudden noise
and Jerk attributable to 1t.
CAUSE OF NOISY IDLINs
Fl. V. writes: My engine makes a
sort of rumbling knock. when it is
idling slowly, but as soon as the throt-
tie is opened somewhat, the knock
ceases. Can you explain this?
Answer: We cannot be sure as to
the reason for this. but very often,
looseness in the timing gears causes
noisy idling, So long as the crank
shaft speed is constant, thruout each
rotation, the timing gears teeth re-
main in continuous contact and run
quietly, but If rotat!onal speed varies
the driven gear may tend to run ahead
Of the driving gear, at times. causing
the teeth to chatter together. The
speed thruout the rotation. varies
somewhat when an engine Is idlins
very slowly. falling off during the
height of compression and increasing
when cylinder fires and moreover. a
weak sylinder tends TO cause irregu-
larities. When an engine IL loaded or
running fast. these speed fluctuations
are negligible. but when 1t is barely
turning over. they are noticeable and
cause gear chattering.

Does Your Couture
Suit You

Hair-dressing can be made a fine
art; the features should be studied
and the style adapted to the contour
of the face A becoming couture
softens angles, counteracts irregular
tiles of features, and by contrast
brings about the most pleasing eff
fects.
The fashion of bobbing the hair is
not to be commended. 1t is exclu--
siyely a style which belongs to the
very young girl. There are excep-
,tions to this rule, and upon the ad-
vice of the family physician. it is
sometimes necessary to sacrifice the
hair on account of illness.
When the face is broad, the hair
should be combed up, not down over
the ears, and dressed high or in an
irregular figure eight.
The face with a retrousse nose
will look best If the hair is coiled
softly at the nape Of the neck or in
any irregular style becoming to the
face.
Those with regular features are
indeed fortunate, for the style of
hair-dressing may be changed as of
ten as the costume is changed. How
ever, it will be found that the Psy-
che knot harmonizes best with this
particular style of beauty.
The simpler the fashion chosen by
a girl, the more charming she will
look. There is every reason to fol-
low the mode if it is becoming. If
not chosen one which suits the in
dividual type, but always avoid the
eXaggeration of mode as eXag-
gerated styles should be left for
those who like to appear conspicu-

Only a week ago l stopped at cross

at that time showed 6.100 miles!
A party recently complained to me
that his car was gong down hill fast
because It was receiving the wrong

agreed with him on both these points,
but we were thinking along vastly
different lines. Tho owner attributed
the condition of the car to the poor
grade of soap the washer was using.
That may have been true, but the fact
Of the matter Is the car was washed
too frequently. The body Of a car
should be washed a few times when
It Is new in order to prevent dust from
scratching the high polish and also
to set the varnish. After that 1t
is best to keep water away from It.
The rain will SUPPLY all the neces-
sary water.
OF course after a car has been out
in a rafnstorm the body will look
rather bad. particularly IL 1t was dusty
before 1t got wet. Many car owners
think II Is strictly according to Hoyle
to have the car washed In such cases,
but additional water will not Improve
matters any unless sponges and soap
and channels are used. It is just this
process that Is annually junking thou
sands Of American cars. And in
many garages car owners are paying
