Have You a Pot of Gold
In Your Horne?
Somerwthere in every, house is some-
thing that collectors would like to
buy. Antiques of •thee highest value
are often ;found in the mast unsus-
pected places. It pays, to sort out
the .contents of an •old trunk 021 a
junk corner in the cellar and take
the old things to a dealer for ap-
praisal.
Years' ago hardily anything but old
furniture, and paintings was colleict-
ed, but arorw all sorts of objects are
being bonht, even if they are not a
'hundtred years • old. Stamps issued
during the last 20 years have been
knoiwn to bring large sums.
Although prices paid for antiques
and rare objects have fallenconsider-
albilY, it is still worth while to sort
out the thinigs hidden away. There
is almost always something of value
and no antique dealer will turn down
a bargain:
It is ' strange that many things
cheriehed as falmdly treasures 'have
only nominal worth, while supposed-
ly worthless 'objects comimand' geod
prices when they are put up for sale.
Dealers often pick up for a song val.
uable pieces that have come to the
secondhand store via the junkman
route. One junk dealer in Phila-
delphia found 875;000 worth of rare
stamps in a massof old papers he
ought for ., •

REPAIR BRIEFS
Thee ear owners who like to do
some of the maintenance (work about
their care should be carceful, when
cleaning ealbora that none of the
particles get between the Ipiston and
cylinder vvall. These ,partieles will
not fall all the way through in many
cases, iaia in moving up and dawn
with the piston may 'score the cylin-
der wall.

Lugs on artillery wheel rims are
not albovie loosening, no matter how
tightly they may have been drawn
when the tire was put bn the wheel.
,* *
There may be plentyeaf lubricant in
the front -wheel hub cap to provide
the bearing with sufficient grease, but
the color of that lubricant is to be
considered. If it hasa grayish cast,
as it often has, the chances are that
its color comes from abrasive part-
icles chipped off in serviee. • All such
grease should be discarded.
Top cleaners that work well on one
fabric miay not fb,e correct far others.
The car owner will make certain of
this in buying the eleanier if he is
desirous, of avoiding doing serious
damage to the top,. Advice on the
subject is part of the accessory
store's service.
