FUEL TROUBLES
SOLVED BY OIL
New Device Boon in the Home,
Dealer SAYS.

Oil burning devices for home use
have been developed to a point where
thy are entirly reliable and thorough
T. successful, according to Russell G.
I Cwell, Indiana distributor for Tyrreli
burnb's, 2052 Broadway.
"Oil burners have been on the mar
ket for fifteen years, but the early
attempts were crude M unreliable.
Howver modern burners have de-
veloped to a point where early i'm
projections have been eliminated" he
said. "Tn the past a great part of the
trouble has been due to the fact that
the burners were marketed by good
statesmen INK not by engineers who
thoroughly understood the problems
TO be met.
This accounted for many com
plants against oil burners in the
early stages. However this all has
leen corrected in the TyrrelI burner.
Among a few Of its particularly
effective features are the following:
1T is. I believe the only gravity
burner perfectly adapted 10 thermost-

systems. It may be lighted
and generated in one minute, a re-
markedly short time. It burns quiet
~ and makes very little noise. It is
economical in the use Of oil because
IS pre-heats the air and has two
vaporizing rings. an excellent feature
which is n wonderful aid to COM
lustion. 1t is easy to operate and re-
1uires very little attention. It
throws off no smoke, no dirt and the
home is rs clean from basement to
attic as in the old natural gas days.
1t is perfestly safe in operation. Three
years Of constant use have proved
the Tyrrell burner to he satisfactory.
economical and practical.
The really modern home certain

moving must be lone away with.
MANY persons fully realizing the
splendid features Of oil heating

could be further from the truth.

PLAN PLANT EXTENSIONS
Local Utility Will Improve Entire
System.

Important improvements throughout
its system have been planned by the
Merchants Heat and Light Company
Of this city. In order to cover the
cost Of these improvements and those
already completed the company has
asked the public service commission
OF Indiana for authority to issue com
mon stock to the amount OF Sis 900
and bonds amounting to 1856. 500. The
securities are to be sold so that the
company will realize not less than
90 per cent Of their face value.
1t is planned to make improvements
amounting 10 $425.064.96 before June
30. 1928. the petition states. while
$40. 354.46 will go to pay for improve
ments made between July and Sep
tember of this year.
Officials OF the company said that
additions to the already extensive dis
tribution system will cost $91. 1898.
Other contemplated expenditures are
$500 for new turbines. $40. 900 for
new transmission lines and sums rang
ing from $4,000 to S31. 600 for new
equipment for increasing voltage and
ether sums for various purposes. all
looking TO an enlargement OF the
plant. Equipment. stores ana other
expenditures for the period vary from

Motorists, as Rule, Fail to
Understand Electrical
Trouble.

That the storage battery is the least
understood of all motor car parts is
h opinion expressed b c. B. Harris,
manager of the ISL battery service
station, sol N. Illinois st.
How many autoists actually know
h steps to take to correct the
trouble when they have battery trou.
ble?" he asked. "If the car driver
gets an unpleasant surprise IN the
shape Of a refusal of his starter to
function line chances to one he will
rush off to the service station for ex.
pert advice and to have the trouble
diagnosed and corrected. But lust
suppose he happens to be miles away
from a service station. Then what?
"a little practical information con.
corning the workings of his battery
would come in mighty handy. He
would give a great deal to know as
much about the battery as he does
about spark plugs. connecting rods.
transmission gears or other parts of
His machine.
ut would pay him to know the
probable cause OF his trouble. Per
haps, for example, the battery is
partly discharged, due to insufficient
charging. Perhaps one OF the cells
has gone dead. Possibly the terminals
and top c%onnectors are loose or dirty
2nd corroded. Perhaps the generator
is not delivering a sufficient charge
IF current to meet the cars require
ments.
In any case he should know where
&c look if trouble develops. If the
trouble is due to dirty terminals he
could correct it by cleaning and tight
ening them. Or if it were such as
to require skilled repair he could give
the matter prompt attention and save
further expense by going Immediately
to a battery station.
TOO many automobile owners are
satisfied to go on from day TO day,
unmindful of the important little
black box attached to the car. They
should know and understand their bat
teries as well as they do the working
OF other parts of their cars. BY doing
so they would effect a big saving in
time. money and mental ease.
Many a owners make the big
mistake of passing up the service sta
ton until something goes radically
wrong with the battery. This is a
great mistake. The old adage about
the stitch in time saving nine GER
tainly holds good for batteries and
many an expensive repair or purchase
of a whole new battery would be
avoided If the car owner would merely
take the trouble to pay an occasional
visit to his battery service station"

report that he now looks much older and

of his sojourn at Doom the ex-Emperor
would change his clothes four and FIVE
times a day. he now rarely changes for
