bandits had taken from him on a

There Is one thing about the best
modern finish--it is permanent. 1t

fading and no cracking. But 1t is.
OF course, a finish OF itself, not 4

not a drop OF 1t should be allowed

have literally incrusted the inner
surface OF your tenders with a rich
coating of tarred gravel. It is
hard TO get off, particularly when

In fact, care. a temperate con.

many fold in the end. This annIies
not only to the engine and to the
tires but particularly to the fin.
ish There is no reason why A
good modern pyFoxylin finish

1t depends on who drives the car

What has happened III particular
II that he has covered the side and

Of traffic film which may consist
microscopic of from 20 to 80
different kinds of infinit lily
tiny bits Of this, that and the other,
4ir0sF DC kIIEm U nature not
likely To do the finish of your car
any particular good.
Different roads give different
kinds Of traffic film. But they all
provide film that IS suffictee tly
UNPLEASANT This Is one Of the
Taenaces that the naotorfst must
fight iii summer.
There Ii peculiar thing about
this film particularly In regard To
its action on the pyroxylin lacquers
that provide the finish for nearly all
modern cars. It is important and
even necessary TO get it off your
car as soon as your run Is over.
But IL is not good plan to keep
washing 1t off In fact, it is diff
ffcult to wash it all off. Wipe it
OFF with Il soft cloth As q matter
OF experience. the film. being full
OF minute particles OF grit, acts as
gentle abrasive for your car u
finish and ii carefully wiped away
rather improves than damages fit.
Mud. on the other hand, should be
washed off as soon as possible. Mud
allowed to dry and cake is bad for
the finish.
Soap Doubtful
1t is surprising in what good
condition an automobile can be kept
under ordinary circumstances by a
mere wiping. The grease around
the wheels should be washed away
with some naphtha soap and the
top and body can be washed from
time to time with water and any
good soap. This Is for lacquer
finishes.
IL your tenders happened to be
vanished be careful of soap on
them except to remove oil or
grease that will not come off any
other way. In washing your car,
plenty of water, a soft cloth and
finally the channels skin are the
best

 Immediately the mon- arch's heart capitulated. He wanted her-wanted her more than anything on earth, and she scorned him.
