INSPECT MOTOR THERMOSTAT.i
Motor thermostats should be in-
spected, cleaned and lubricated each
time the cylinder head is removed
for carbon and valve work. If this
N done the life of the device will be
greatly prolonged, and the valva
should not give trouble.
THREE TIRE FACTORS
There are only three factor* which
govern the cost per mile of tyre op-
eration. The first is the quality ef
toile tire; the, second, the conditions
of operation, and the third, the care
of the tire by the owns,. In order
to cut down the cost of their mile•
age, all three factors nest be regard-
ed as important. It is of no benefit
to buy the best tires obtainable, put
them on a ear, and then forget about
them. Watch for small cuts, bruis-
es, pieces of metal and other foreign
matter in tires. Slight defects, such
as these, if unattended to, will cause
serious trouble.
THE SLIPPING CLUTCH
The best way to use fuller's earth
to dry the oil on a slippery clutch or
brake is with a powder enn, sueli 05
is used for spreading insect powder.
Another way is to use an ordinary
oil can filled with a mixt;re of ,gaso-
line and fuller's earth. 'rhe gasoline
"hips to cut the grease and soon eva-
poratee, allowing the powder to
spread evenly over the stn' ee of
the linings. The mixiurs should not
be too }react', so that it will spread
evenly, and should be shaken fre-
quently so that the. powder will not
settle at the bottom of the can. If
filler's earth is unohtai*,able. ordin-
ary talcutn powder melt a good
substitute.
BEFORE WASHING CAR
Before washing_ the car, e mix-
ture of kerosene and lubricating oil
should be forced between the body
crevices with e rtiuirt-tynn or a11ow-
rti to seep in from the applicatinr, of
a brush. This will overcome body
aelueaks, provided proper attentinn
has been given to the tightening' of
the body bolts. Rocking;' the car will
permit the nlixturi to penetrate ther
oughly. It is a :good plan to save
the oil drained from the ceankca:.e
for this purpose. It is else odei•ablc
to let up on the body bolt; and then
back them up with grease. This
grease will work over the surface of
the bolt upon tightening and there-
by prevent any squeaking at this
DRIVING EFFICIENCY
The first rule of driving is to pay
attention, to keep the mind on things
ahead. In cities observe the speed
limit and traffic regulations to the
letter. Driving rapidly in a city or
village makes only a little better
time than driving sanely. On the
highway drive at a speed only where
the road is clear; slow down when
meeting or passing other vehicles;
never pass a vehicle, when an ap-
proaching vehicle is within 200
yards; never pass a vehicle ahead
he'ore the driver of it knows what is
ennrng; never pass a vehicle near a
curve in the road or near the brow
e" hiP • slow down when approach -
fee tae ?•:•,w of a hill, slow down
i' i:a.s ees cows ,r other animals in
near the road; when following
ther vehicle keep a safe distance
h••';; keep the car under such con-
:' that no natter what some other
driver or person may do no one is
hurt. Use caution everywhere.
A starting motor requires any-
where from 120 to 250 amperes to
crank the engine.
Observe the oil gauge and amme-
ter when starting to be sure they
aro working. '
A cracked fender should be re-
paired at once. 'Vibration will cause
the crack to grow larger.
Perfectly fuilctionlne brakes are a
requisite to safe driving in any set, -
son of the year.
Oilstone or fine sandpaper should
be used to clean ignition points, and
not emery paper.
An operator of a car should never
be without a tire gauge, and this lit-
tle device should be used at frequent
inter'vaie.
Never leave a parked car in gear
on a main street. The transmission
and engine will be damaged :f struck
by another vehicle.
The explosion of gases in the muf-
fler is frequently caused by an inter-
mittent spark, This is usually due
to limit of adjustment at the breaker
points, or sticking of the breaker
mechanism, to a loose or badly worn
distri'bnto' brush, or to loose or short
circuited wires and connections.

"VARIOUS CHURCHGOERS"
Some go to church just for a walk,
Some to stare and laugh and talk;
Some go there to motet a friend,
Some their idle time to spend,
Some. go for general observation,
Some for private speculation;
Some to seek or ilnel a. levee,
Some a courtship to discover,
Some go there to- use their eyes,
Newest fashions criticize;
Some to ;how their own smart dress,
Some their neighbor's to assess.
Some to scan a robe or bonnet,
Some to price the trimming on it;
Some to learn the latest news
That friend:; at home they may ant -
use,
Some to gosisp—false or true,
Safe hid within the sheltering pew; -
Some go there to please the squire,
Some his daughter to admire.
Seine the parson go to fawn,
Some to laugh and some to yawn;
Some to claim the parish doles,
Some for bread, and seine for coals.
Some because it's thought genteel,
Some to vaunt their pious zeal;
Some to show how sweet they sing,
Some how loud their voices ring.
Some the preacher go to hear,
His style and voice to praise or jeer;
Some forgiveness to implore,
Some their sins to varnish o'er;
Some to sit and daze and nod,
But few go there to worship God.

TOBACCO SEED BEDS
In the production of tobacco a
plentiful supply of early vigorous
seedlings determine to a great ex-
tent the degree of success that will
be obtained in the field. Therefore
careful preparation and care of . the
seed beds are of paramount import-
ance.
In pamphlet No. 03 of the Domin-
ion Tobacco Division the superinten-
dent of the Farnham, Que., Experi-
mental Station, gives detailed in-
structions concerning the prepara-
tion of tobacco seed beds in Quebec.
These seed bed, which should be of
the glass -covered, semi -hotbed type,
are prepared under 'Quebec condi-
tions in the first weep in April. A-
bout six inches of corn stalk or straw
is first packed tightly into the beef,
over this is put a layer of compost
five or six inches deap, the upper 3
inches being applied with a sieve.
This compost is prepared at ]east a
year in advance by mixing black
mould with well -rotted man IP). The
beds aro disinfected with formelin,
which is found to be an efficient
method of eliminating disease, then
allowed two weeks for airing before
seeding. The seed should be sown at
th rate of one -eight of an ounce per
hundred square feet. It should be
noted, however, that in all eases
where the seed germinates less than
85% a heavier rate must bo used.
The beds should be watered at seed-
ing time, and thereafter not allowed
to dry out at any time until the
plants have become well rooted, and
cover the ground.
INSERTED BANDS

BREAKFAST TRAYS
In families of one or two, indivi-
dual trays are useful for serving
breakfast without setting the table.
YEI LOW FLOWERS
Yellow and orange dominate in

SPICE FLAVORS

i PROUTING le 0 fee 1'05 3
Buy potatoes in small quantities,
for, once sprouted, they become soft
e d unfit for use. The same is true
of onions.
SMALL DESIe.h1S
Embroideries ropea+' the small de-

RAW SILK
Daytime dresses of Chinese silk,
raw silk crepes, tusso' and thick

have loose bands inserted at the
normal waist line.
WASH RAISINS
Even boxed raisins often contain
sand and stalks which must be wash-
ed away before the fruit is used.
' BACON FAT
Bacon fat is the meat useful fat
for salting or frying. A bit of bacon
.01' salt pork lends ti wog to green
beans or baked beans, if cooked with
them in the pot.
BOIL POTATOES
To avoid the tedious job of peel-
ing raw potatoes, boil them with
their jackets on. The skins will conte
off easily, without waste, and the
flavor of the potatoes will be improv-
ed.
CLEAN COOKERS
Fireless cookers should be dried
immediately after the food i$ remov-
ed. The cover should be left open
when not in use,
EVENING COIFFURES
Bandeaux of gold and silver with
