But that is not a criticism of "Salâ€" ly" as a book, merely as a true picâ€" ture of life. And a true picture of life it is not, and did not intend to be. It is a laughing, biting satire on the plain but brainy husband married to the beautiful but brainless wife.

This plot is not breathless at all, but it is a rather amusing little varâ€" iation on the usual mystery theme. There is a college book shop and a poet reading his verses to a select and temperate audience on a certain eveâ€" ning. The last of the verses has to do with disappearance into the fourth dimension. Jokingly, it is remarked that it might be fun, as well as a good "ad" for the bookshop to have him do it.

It has the zest, the color, the convincing vigor which make Mr. Sabatini‘s stories the best of their kind. Sabatini, like the poor, is always with us.

In the orâ€" dinary hydrometer a sample is taken in the usual manner, but unlike the battery test, the desirable thing is to have as low a reading as possible. It is also important that the reading be taken in a place where the temperaâ€" ture is not below 56 degrees Fahrenâ€" heit. . If the reading is 1,000, then you have !gf:re water, which will freeze at 32 degrees above zero. The presâ€" ence of alcohol will lower the specific gravity, and also will lower the temâ€" perature at which it will freeze. , ~ Specific Gravity With a hydrometer reading 1 1,000 down to 0.9450 or lower,. specific gravity of the water can be| Rock Island The trouble with alcohol is that it boils at a somewhat lower temperaâ€" ture than water, and although this is not a drawback from the standpoint of heating, it means that it will evapâ€" orate fast and one can never be «u» he has enough alcohol in his radiator unless he makes a hydrometer test. In buying alcohol for the radiator, only deatured should be rccepted, as it is harmless to the radiator, hose connections ,or engine, whereas wood alcohol usually contains free acetic acid which is harmful to these parts, and while it is a slightly better antiâ€" freeze than denatured alcohol it is not enough so to warrant its higher Golden State Limited This is satisfactory for most conâ€" ditions, even if the thermometer may be hanging around the zero mark, beâ€" cause it takes some time‘for a car to cool down to the temperature of the air. One and oneâ€"third gallons, howâ€" ever, a 40 per. cent solution, will give ‘immunity down to 2 degrees below zero, and if the car is left in an unâ€" heated garage overâ€"night this is safer, Of course, if a real oldâ€"fashâ€" ioned cold snap comes on, the safest thing to do is to see that the radiator contains a 50â€"50 solution of alcohol and water, The ‘ordinary cooling system holds about three and oneâ€"quarter gallons of water. If one gallon of denatured alcohol is added to two and oneâ€"quarâ€" ter gallons of water, to fill the radiaâ€" tor, the driver will have about a 30 per cent solution, which> will not freeze until the mercury gets down to 10 above zero, says a bullétin issued by <the : mechanical first aid departâ€" ment of the Chicago Motor club. 1 Directions for Utilizing This Method of Preventing Damâ€" age to Car From Cold , > In Winter AS VALUE OF ALCOHOL _ â€"â€" IN COOLING SYSTEM 63 hows California Only Denatured Alcohol THE HIGHLAND PARK PRESS, HIGHLAND PARK, ILLINOIS ANTIâ€"FREEZE 3 From Chicagoâ€"Rock Island Linesâ€"daily beginning Novemâ€" ber 14.
