HOW TO ADJUST
THE CAR MAGNETIC

When a spark plug is suspected
magnetic it should first be seen
that the proper cylinder is in fir
ing position: that is, both valves
closed and the piston brought up
to the highest point, which can be
ascertained by running rcd or
wire through the spark plug or
petcoek opening. When the point
is reached the motor should be
backed up an eighth of a stroke,
which is where the spark should
occur when the spark lever is fully
advanced. If it is desired to throt-
tie the motor down very low the
spark plug points should be opened
until they are fully sixteenth of
an inch apart.

HOW TO TEST THE
CAR SPARK PLUGS

When a spark plub is suspected
OF not operating remove it from
the cylinder without disconnecting
the wire terminal and lay the metal
part of the plug on the engine. BY
turning the engine over slowly the
electrical circuit will then be COM
pleted by the commutator and il
the spark plug is working a spark
will jump between the two points
If not, it is a good indication that
the plug is foul and needs clean
ing or else Is short circuited and
worthless.

DEFECTIVE TUBES
RUIN BEST TIRES

A defective tube will ruin the
hest tire. Just as it's the heart
that keeps the body going, so it's
the tube that keeps the casing up.
A man would certainly not select
a weak heart because it was cheap,
but would want the best. So the
motorist should purchase the tube
that will best prolong the life of
the casing. The better the tube
one buys, advise Miller tire service
experts, the greater assurance one
has of full and satisfactory service
from his casing. A good casing
is terribly handicapped with de-
fective or worn-out tube.

were the color Of the violets growing
under the big oaks, but all this could
not blot out the blemish and the King
and Queer were in despair.
OF course no one wanted the Princess
for a wife, and the Princess must marry,
for who was TO help her reign after the
klng was gone?
At last the King sent for all the
magicians in his realm TO come 10 the
Palace and try 10 remove the ugly
wart from the Princess nose.
They came in their long black coats
and pointed, tall black caps and they
boiled and brcwcd and cooked, but
after all was done there was the wart
as big as ever. Al last the Princess
grew angry and declared that she
would bear no more. that the wart
might stay there until the end Of her
DAYS; and she drove all the magicians

Ii is announced that We are TO have
Good Manners Week. For the space OF
seven days every one is expected 10 be
courteous, and polite, and speak 20
others as they would like TO he spoken
To, and bc considerate OF other peoples
feelings, and otherwise do their blt
towards ushering IN the millennium.
Fine ideal Push it along for all II is
worth But why put time limit on
good manners? Why not make them a
continuous performance? Why keep
good manners, as provincial people do
their Sunday clothes, Just for occasional
wear, and for dress up occasions
IL is curious how little attention we
pay 20 the cultivation of good manners
when We all realize what a great asset
they are, for there Is no one so lgnor..at
as not 20 know the value of good man
ners. There is no one such an insensible
clod as not TO feel and respond TO the
attraction Of good manners.
The reason playwTights and novelsts
depict their villains Is having polished
manners Is because n ma n with good
manners can get away0 with anything
short OF murder. Every confidence man
has good manners as his stock in trade,
or else he would never persuade us into
buying his gold bricks, and wild cat
stocks. Every one Of us Is helping TO
support some lazy ne 'cr-do-well simply
because we cannot resist his or her good
manners.
4 husband who continues 10 treat his
wife with the gallantry that he showed
I her before marriage; who remembers 10
pay her compliments, and pull out her
chair for her at the table, and pick up her
handkerchief, NAV beat her and starve
J her and she will consider that Lady
Luck was her bridesmaid when she got
married. The first thing that an astuto
/ business man considers IN hiring a new
employee is his manners, and figures
that a good address covers q multitude
Of other Shortcomings
On the other hand, the man and
woman who have brusque. unpleasant
manners have a handicap against which
they struggle in vain. They may have
a hundred times the ability and the
sterling worth OF the good hammered,
but they never ge, their just desert,
because kissing goes by favor, and
people do a good many things for US
because they ike US that they would no,
do for US because II is our due.
The i'll hammered antagonize US az the
moment OF meeting They tread all over
our delicate sensibilities with their
brutal feet. They wound our vanity 10
the quick, and We simply steer clear OF
them. and hate them for offenses against
US that they do not even know they have
committed. Il may be that at heart they
are good and kind and tender and low
ing. but the outside Of the fruit is so
prickly that We don't bother TO get at
the inside OF il.
