Fulfilling similar need are the
various inexpensive covers for hood
louvcrs.
The engine that does not have an
oil filter can be treated to one with
advantage. A wide variety is avail
able. \ filter serves to admirable et-
feet in that it will remove from the
crankCase lubricant the foreign solids
which IN Winter are made doubly de-
structive. because they get in their
abrasive action more readily with the
crankcase oil diluted. II there is any
device which will pay for Itself. the
oil filter must he so claSSed. gas
Olne filter also is an excellent Winter
accessory.
Heaters. which assure, quick
change in the viscosity of the engine
oil on a bitter cold morning. also are
on the accessory market and are pop
ular, because they perform a real serv-
ice to the engine.
Among these appurtenances to Win
ter motoring which indisputably may
he classed as indispensable is an ny
drOmeter for taking readings of the
anti-freCZe solution. Without one of
these devices no motorist can be GER
tain as to the adequacy of the solu
ton if alcohol is being used, because
the accessory shop offers hydrometers
that are calibrated to show the pro
lection offered in degrees of tempera
ture insead of by specific gravity.
Heaters Of many designs may be
added to the car to keep passengers
as snug and warm as if they were it,.
, their own home. They are among the
greatest comfort-giving devices to be
had for this season and the motorist
who has had one would never do with
out It again. They are simplicity it
self in their installation and operation
and the original cost is far from pro-
hibitive.
Robes Are Comfort.
In the case of an open car, the mo.
torist misses good opportunity to as
sure his comfort If he fails to provide
himself with one of the warm, lux.
urious robes that are so plentiful along
accessory row.
Winter not only brings a street sur
face that is treacherous, but it also
introduces a condition that excels that
of any other season in discomfort to
the car owner and in potential dam
age 10 the car itself. In the light of
these facts it Is not amiss to give a
thought to the addition of shock alb
sOrbers to the car not already so
equipped. A street surface that is
packed unevenly with snow or ice
very often later becomes a surface
that is pOcked with gaping holes
where the asphalt, concrete, or other
substance has yielded to the elements.
There are innumerable other de-
vices of a specialized character that
might he mentioned in a story of what
accessory. row holds in the way of
Winter car safety, comfort, conven-
ience and economy. But those listed
here should be sufficient to send the
motorist in search of the many useful
and necessary appurtenancee that
may be found there.

LADIES'! DARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR

The use Of Sage and Sulphur for
restoring faded, gray hair to tie
natual color dates back to grand.
mothers time. She used it to keep
her hair beautifully dark. glossy
and attractive. Whenever her hair
took on that dull. faded or streaked
appearance, this simple mixture was
applied with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home is mussy
and out-of-date. Nowadays. by ask.
ing at any drug store for a bottle
Of 'Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" you win get this fam.
Gus old preparation, improved by
the addition of other ingredients
for only rs cents. This can be de-
pended upon to restore natural
color and beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so nat.
urally and evenly that nobody can
tell It has been applied. You
amply dampen q sponge or soft
brush with 1t and draw this through
your hair. taking one strand at a
time. By morning the gray hair
disappears, and after another ap
pllcation or two, It becomes beau.

CITY Foreman Tells of Threats
by Politicians to Break Him
Sp0sato Accuses J. Willie
Mills of Putting on His
Own Truck, Displacing
AnOther's.

Declaring that politicians have
openly threatened to break him."
Foreman James Sposato Of the city
storeyard expressed no surprise this
afternoon when informed of a re-
ported move to GUST him from his
job.
Sposato, a republican. was placed
In charge of the yards when Joseph
F. Ryan, democrat. resigned at the
request OF the board Of public works.
Attaches of the department declared
today they have no knowledge Of the
projected Sposato custer but the
foreman about whom the reports re-
volve appeared to be much less in
the dark.
Ill feeling has existed between
Sposato and ]. Willie Mills. an active
republican leader. for seevral months
dating back to a dispute over auto
mobile trucks, according to city en-
ployes. A small truck in which
Sposato's brother-in-law had a
monetary interest had been in use
prior to the wrangle. Sposato has
been quoted as laying the cause of
bad feeling to the fact that Mills,
following out a threat. caused the
truck to be taken off and another
put on, the second truck being one
which Mills purchased and caused
to be put in the city service. The
Mills truck is now in use, it is said,
working out of the city storeyard.
This assignment is considered to be
the most desirable given to trucking
contractors and is the one formerly
held by Sposato's brother-in-law.
According to Sposato, Mills In the
heat OF a discussion over trucking
business. declared:
"I'll take that truck of yours off
the job"
How are you going to take the
truck off the job? You have moth
ing to do with It," Sposato declares
he replied.
"All right" Mills is quoted as
having shot back, that truck will
be taken off tomorrow.
1t was. according to the foreman.
In conjunction with his duties as
foreman, Sposato had been RESPONSE
BILE for keeping the time of trucks
and from his schedule the compensa-
ton for automobiles has been made
up. He no longer makes up the time
schedule and while he declined to
discuss the subject at length. he de-
clared today this duty was given to
another after he had once altered
the report lent in for the Mills
truck.
Asked to name the politicians who
declared they would break him."
Sposato declined, but he assured
reporter, that further attempts to

to furnish this and other facts, with

An automobile owned by A. J.
Swanson of 72o Arch street rolled
down hill in front OF his home
shortly before o'clock yesterday
afternoon, crashed through an iron
fence at the bottom of the hill and
overturned in brook. Mr.. Swan
son reported to the police that he
did not know whether someone re-
leased the brakes or the car started
off itself.
George Fredericks, owner of \

proceeds under the street at the foot

Hears CITY IS laying
UNAUTHORIZED PAVING
Sablotsky Inquiries Into
Job at Towers Gas
Station

Councilman Samuel Sablotsky to-
day instituted an investigation into
reports made to him that the board
OF public works is performing I'M
authorized paving and macadam
operations at Stanley and South
Main streets, the effect of which will
be to improve the entrance to a gas
oline filling station owned by Reg
inald Towers. chairman of the board.
Sablotsky was in communication
with State Highway Commissioner
John A. Macdonald today and was
informed by that official that the
states does not plan to pay for any
work on Stanley street but is doing
some paving to link South Main
street and Beach Swamp road, one
half the cost of which will be de-
frayed by the city. Sablotsky had
previously been told by the depart
ment of public works that the state
will, pay the cost Of all work being
done at this point. he declared. His
mine whether the misinformation
has come from the state or the city
department., and if he finds the board
of public works plans to draw the
costs OF improvement at the filing
station out of the city treasury he
will formally protest to the common
council, he announced.
According to Sablotskys inform
ant, paving operations extend up
Stanley street to the gas station
entrance and for some distance be-
yond that point macadam is to be
placed. Neither piece of work was
sanctioned by the common council.
he pointed out today and the reports
if true, indicated TO his mind a glar-
ing example of political patronage.
The gasoline station was installed
at this point over the objections of
Sablotsky who appeared before the
board of adjustme nt to ask that bus
mess be restricted out of this area
because of its proximity to Willow
Brook park and the site of the me-
mortal to Spanish American war
veterans.
