NEW ACETYLENE
ENG|NESTARTER
THAT HASMER|T
inventor Claims It Will Turn
over Motor by Ingenious
Device.

A novelty in sure fire engine
starting devices is the little acety.
lene device being manufactured
and marketed by Hermann Peder-
sen, the inventor. An ingenious
nozzle 10 made to screw into an
opening tapped into the intake
manifold in such a way that under
normal conditions it remains closed.
When the OCCASION arises to start
the motor. a little key on a bottle
of compressed acetylene gas is
opened ever so slightly and the gas
under its high pressure is per-
mitted to flow to the jet of the
device. IT cannot go further than
this point, as a needle valve nor
mally remains closed at this point
to prevent It.
A slight opening is made by
means of throttle attachment
which permits the acetylene gas
to follow into the manifold. Frcm
here it enters the cylinders as the
motor is turned over by hand or by
means of the electric starter in the
usual way.
The advantages OF the acetylene
now becomes apparent. Instead of
an endless turning Of a cold motor
with no results the dry acetylene
gas is in a condition to be fired at
once and the motor will start and
continue to run after any one cylin-
der has been turned over the firing
position. 1t has never failed in any
cases where it has been installed.
In particularly obstainatc motors
the acetylene valve is held open
until the motor picks up It's cycle
on the normal gasoline fuel.
Should = be desired. a slightly
different )rm of nozzle can be
fitted wi is adapted particularly
for cont...uous running of the
motor.
The advantages of the use Of
acetylene gas as a fuel are rlany.
1t is claimed that one bottle of com.
pressed gas containing 1S0 cubic
feet of gas is equivalent in energy
to sixty-five gallons of gasoline.
The cost and bulk of this material
rs fuel are so tremendously less
than the equivalent volume of gaso.
line that wonderful results are pre-.
hicted when the system becomes
more generally known.

The standard leather trimming
goes with the derby red, dark and a

BY MAKING

One good intelligent investment
you can do more for your
family and old age than you
can by a lifetime of drudg-
cry and self-denial. Every
day many people with back
bone are laying the corner
stone for good estates or
adding to one already started
by letting the rent money you
pay out or the rent money
they pay out pay for the rent
ed property.
The surest and sanest investment
in the world is well selected
real estate In the right part
of an established city. II you
have not spent lifetime in
the study Of the evolution of
city real estate, you only
trust to luck and chance
when acting solely on your
own impulse. You may know
the price of every property
in the city but what about
the value?
What is the intrinsic value per
square foot of class A or any
other class of residential prop
erty in a city of 10000? How
does it vary up to 500,000f
What is the value per cubic
foot of class A and other
construction?
If you know these values then
you have a real point to
figure from. Otherwise you
must have the guidance of a
professional real estate deal
er or you will get little or
nothing of the increase In
values which is going on all
the time.
Every week some one says II I
had only bought some date
previous.
There is more reason why one
should buy in this city than
ever before.
The magnificent hotels now COM
ing in will advertise our WON
derful climate far and wide.
The greatest railroad shops
west of Chicago will bring in

Skilled mechanics. The new
railroad opens to us an un-
developed empire. The drain
age system will farm vast
areas. Everything points to a

Now beautifully situated and
right in line of the cities
growth are being built many
