MUFFLER IS NOT TEST REVEALS LARGE ' TIRE NOT DANGEROUS WATCHED CLOSE Cleaning Up Process Is The Fool and His Folly. "They say a fool and his money are soon parted." "But they also say a fool for lock." INCREASES An Early Beginning. Mother This Is your baby brother. Important Part of Automobile Is Located Under Car and Out of ' Sight and Is Rarely Given Attention Needed. Naturally. "What did Mrs. Horner say after her mald-o- f departed?".. . "Help I Help !" Wayside Tales. One of the parts of an automobile most by many owners and ! drivers is the muffler. As a boy with a dirty face puts off the cleaning up process Just a long as possible, so the motorist with a muffler that needs and thinks attention procrastinates perhaps he will fix It up tomorrow. But toAnd tomorrow never, comes. day Is always here with Its greater use of gasoline and various other complications that a dirty muffler causes. The muffler Is locnted under the car, and being out of sight Is usually out of mind. It is therefore often neglected or misused, An'd yet, It ought not "to be. The muffler Is placed on the end of the exhaust pipe of the enr of an automogine so that the drh-ebile while taking pleasure himself does not wholly deprive others of It. Let us consider the use of the muffler. The exhaust valve opens while the burned gas Is still under a pressure "of from 25 to ' 30 pounds per square nch. If this were exhausted directly fnto the air the resulting noise would stifle conversation In the car, annoy everybody along the street and quickly get the driver Into trouble with the police. - The muffler prevents all this. It provides a chamber in which these exhaust gases may expnnd and cool somewhat and at" the same time breaks up the pressure by allowing It to leak out slowly through a number of very smtill holes. Instead of letting It pose In one "big noise." Valve. .;' The "Cut-Out- " In the early history of the automobile mufflers were not used and everybody for blocks around knew when an auto wa'i coming... As the automobiles increased in number this became a nuisance and was stopped by law. Then they sought indeed had been seeking, a means of stifling the sound. In the early muffler there was trouble because the gas would back up In the cylinder and decrease the . power of tlie motor. It was thought there was no way to decrease the sound without decreasing the power; therefore the manufacturers devised a valve to "cut out" .the mufflir on the car whenever extra power was desired, j. Sometimes the back pressure was so great as to Interfere when driving through heavy roads or up hills. The "cut out" let the gas exhaust directly into the air Instead of going" through the muffler. At the present time nearly, every city has a law prohibiting the use of "cut outs." . The average driver does not know that his muffler needs as careful as any other part of the mechanism, and so he neglects It. In these days of noiseless cars It requires a fcr?at number of very small holes muffler. These become clogged with soot or carbon from the exhaust. The deposit collects very rapidly especially when the grade of oil used Is poor or too much oil is used. It also results when the carburetor Is adjusted to give too rich a mixture. peg-lete- ll-work A Poser. . Wife George, Is that you? George Why, certainly!

"UM"" I rj Big English Vehicle Run Over Sharp ened Spike Making Perfect Blow. Out, But No Damage Done Except to Tire. One way to overcome a prejudice Is It. The Introduction of the, large size pneumatic tire for busses lp Engltuid, was hedged In by iuaiiy difficulties because of a wide- to remove spread belief that the use of thee N tires was dangerous. In case of a blow-ou- t men argued, tb tremendous concussion of the es- caplng air would thrust the car off the roadway. The difference in height between the two sides of the car after one tire had been deflated would be so great as to threaten to over-turthe vehicle, was another argument. Pedestrians standing near might be blown from their feet by the force of the escaping air from the tire It was aid. The driver, himself, might even be in danger, in case of a blow-ou- t while the car was travelling at rapid peed. ', To meet this situation, E. It. Preston, managing director of nn English tire company, in with two ef the leading motor Journals of the country, devised a unique test. "We'll of a tire while the stage a blow-ocar Is In motion," said Preston. 'You can go along and see what happens." A narrow and rutty dirt road outside of London, was selected for the test, A heavy plank was Imbedded In the roadway, fitted up with a big Iron spike, sharpened to a razor edge and set so that it would strike the tire at an angle Just outside of the trend. When all was set a big bus, In which rode the representatives of the two motor Journals, came flying down the road at B0 to 35 miles an hour speed. As the big sharpened spike struck the Ide of the tire It ripped a Jagged hole through carcass and tube. It was a perfect blow-ouThe tire was completely flat within 15 feet But M damage had been done except to Uie'tlre Itself.' The men riding the car felt only a Tery alight Jolt as the car struck the Impediment Examination of the surface of the road Immediately after, showed that there was no perceptible lurching of the truck from the road. The wheels carried through straight ahead. There was no relaxing of the car. Examination afterwards showel that one wheel stood about an inch tnd a quarter below the other as the ftault of the tire being deflated. The test has gone a long ways toward correcting the erroneous Impression es to the performance of these large tires in case of a blow-on ut t. ut RADIATOR FOR AUTOMOBILES Invention of Brooklyn Man Adapted for Use In Cooling Any Circulating Liquid.
