T Lub atug Gasoline Gives You More Motor Life O More Mileage More Power Lubricating Gasoline is produced by treating Gasoline with Lubri Gas, a sci entific, mechanical and chemical production of a chem ist who having conceived the idea that lubricating oil properly treated could be made to properly and uni formly assimulate with water or gasoline. Cool Engine--No Carbon Don't Be Deceived LUMKI GAS does not make your gasolinek.burn- any longer, neither does it make it more powerful! -... a Lubri Gas is Lubrication By the lubrication of machinery we reduce friction, by the reduction of friction we reduce the amount of pow er necessary to propel machinery; by reducing the amount of power necessary to propel machinery we can reduce the amount of fuel necessary to produce sufficient power, hence more mileage. Likewise by lubrication we " reduce friction; by reducing friction we reduce resistance of machinery; by reduc ing resistance we give machinery more POWElt. My lubrication wo increase the life of machinery. CARBON wiH not stick or adhere to an oily surface. Lubricating gasoline reaches the internal engine as a vapor compared to a mist or fog in the air; thislubri cnting vapor will not burn. When the explosion of the gasoline vapor occurs then the vapor or mist of (Lubri Gas) lubricating gosolino is sprayed throughout the entire combustion chamber, thereby allowing perfect expansion and contraction of the piston rings. Carbon not being property that will stick or adhere to an oily surface must of necessity move onward and is forced by compression out of the inner part of the en gine through the exhaust valve or pipe. Lubri Gas Lubricating Gasoline is Logical KI3ASONAMLE, Mcclianical and Scientific Proven by test. .Guaranteed to give you Satisfaction. j More Reasons By the reducing of friction we reduce heat; by the re duction of heat we give you a cool engine You con t boil water in your car if you use Lubri-Gas. DEMONSTRATION WEEK From August 25, and Including Saturday Night, Sept. 1, 1917 Denonstration Week we are going to sell lubricating gasoline at the regular price, We earnestly request every automobile owner in this city and' vicinity to buy lubricating gasoline and try it for yourself.

See the Demonstration in our window. Let a gasoline engine expert explain to you why lubricating gasoline is the gasoline you will eventually buy and if your engine is not giving you satisfaction let him explain to you why not. Lubricating gasoline gives you perfect ignition, clean spark plugs, joy and pleasure in driving, bettor nnd cheaper fuel. 25 More Mileage More Power More Motor Life lioiucmhor all this week, come early and start using lubricating gasoline so you can havo ample timo to give it a thorough test. Our guarantee You can make as many miles with 1G0 gallons of lubricating gasoline as you can with 200 gallons regular gasoline. You are burning dollars j why not save dollars?
