25 PERCENT SAVED
on your gasoline bill by using
SPEEDOLINE
Questions and Answers for Motorists
Ques.—What grade of gasoline should 1 use in my car?
Ans.—The best you can obtain.
Ques.—Will a poor grade of gasoline run my ear as well as
a better grade ?
Ans.—No. It will give you lees mileage, cause poor ignition,
produce smoke, increase carbon deposits, and*prove unsatisfac-
tory in every way.
Ques.—What is "stale" gasoline?
Ans.—Gasoline that has been left exposed to air until its
lighter "constituents have escaped, leaving only a residue unfit
for use in a motor.
Ques.—How can I tell the grade of gasoline?
Ans.—Pour a little on your hand, and if it evaporates rapid-
ly and leaves the hand dry and clean, it is acceptable; if it evap-
orates slowly and leaves a greasy deposit, it should be rejected.
Ques.—Is there anc way to increase the explosive power of
gasoline?
Ans.—Yes. Speedoline will make it vaporize more reauily
and become a higher explosive. .
Ques.--What is Speedoline?
Ans.—It is a liquid preparation to pijt in your gasoline that
increases its explosive power making your motor require a
fourth less gasoline; it also acts as a heat-resisting lubricant,
and also dissolves the* carbon in the motor chambers and v.fves
and prevents its further formation.
Ques.—How is it used?
Ans.—Just pour a small quantity in your gasoline, as di-
rected, each time you have yfcir gasoline tank filled.
Ques.—Is it expensive to use?
Ans.—No. It saves you more than six times its cost in the
saving of gasoline, besides keeping your motor free from carbon
and increasing its power.
Ques.—Will its continued use injure a motor?
Ans.—No. It will improve and prolong the life of your
motor. It contains no acids, ether, or any other chemical that is
harmful to a motor.
Ques.—What is the pricc of Speedoline?
Ans.—$1.50 per quart.
Ques.—How much gasoline will a quart of Speedoline treat?
Ans.—100 to 160 gallons.
Ques.—How many gallons of gasoline will a quart of Speed-
oline save me ?
Ans.—40 to 50 gallons.
Ques.—Does a motor using Speedoline ever have to be
cleaned of carbon ? . ,
Ans.—No. Speedoline keeps out all carbons, thus eliminat-
ing motor troubles.
Ques.—Where can I get Speedoline?

the life story of Nadia, who lur«d from the
straight and narrow way to bright lights, ease,
