NEW TIRE CARRIER<br />

TTHIS tire carrier eliminates all straps,<br />

lugs and nuts, and uses nothing but<br />

a lever to operate it.<br />

The attachable set is adapted for cars<br />

that are provided with a fellow-band for<br />

the purpose of carrying one tire only.<br />

This set can be attached to the fellowband<br />

by means of three bolts. The nuts<br />

This Tire Carrier Is Operated by a Single Lever<br />

Only, and Holds the Tire Firmly<br />

being counter sunk when drawn up tight,<br />

the end of the bolt is riveted into the<br />

counter sunk portion of nut, making it<br />

absolutely safe. In placing tires on or<br />

off of the tire carrier the only operation<br />

necessary after unlocking the padlock is<br />

to pull down the lever, wdiich raises the<br />

shoe at the bottom, permitting the tires<br />

to be taken off. When placed on the<br />

carrier, throw the lever in position, which<br />

clamps the shoe at the bottom on to the<br />

rim of the tires. Placing a padlock in<br />

the lever ami right bracket prevents any<br />

one from releasing the lever. It is impossible<br />

for the lever to open through<br />

any jar on the road, as when closed the<br />

expanding bar is thrown slightly beyond<br />

the center.<br />

The standard set is adapted for cars<br />

not provided with a fellow-band and<br />

takes the place of the usual carrier using<br />

clips and straps. The operation of this<br />

is the same as the attaching set, and this<br />

also applies to the heavy type of carrier.<br />

SHUTTERS FOR AUTO RADIA­<br />

TORS<br />

T" 1 11E shutter is in style on one type of<br />

car now, in place of the curtain.<br />

When you want to regulate the air current<br />

and heat in the motor, don't get out<br />

and pull down the radiator cover. Stay<br />

in the car, and push a button. This<br />

closes or opens the shutter to any width<br />

desired.<br />

The shutter operates just exactly as a<br />

window shutter, and prevents air from<br />

flowing through the radiator cells, so<br />

that the engine may be warmed quicker<br />

and may be kept warm after stopping.<br />

This new shutter costs $15.00. A<br />

motometer from wdiich to regulate the<br />

shutter is obtainable with it.<br />
