But too many autoigts are not fair to their batteries. A tooth and a aattery are alike in many ways.

It is so common for motorists to place infinite trust in their generators without thought as to whether they are charging at the proper rate. As a rule the average motorist knows that the specific gravity of his clectrolyte has something to do with the efli- clency of his battery. But it is gen- lorally the case that, having bought and paid for a battery, he expects it to take care of ftself automatically. And then, when his neglect and abuse has resuited in the battery refusing to take a charge—well, he just natu- rally goes up in the air and blames sverything and everybody except him- sel “The service required of a battery may be such that the generator does not charge at the proper rate.

The first produces an undcr- charged battery and the second an overcharged one—one being just as undesirable as the other. Distilled Water Needed. “Distilled water, which any service station 'will furnish, should be used to keep the liquid in each cell of the battery up above the top of the lead plates. A little examination once a week in summer or half as often in 3 winter will take care of this. An Emerson & Orme |+ motorist should be able to do this liquid has spilled and acid should be added as well as distilled water, he'd better let an expert handle the job.
