NOVELTY IN DEFLECTORS
C 1 VERY car driver knows that glaring
lights on the other fellow's car are a
dangerous nuisance, and on his own car
a daily invitation to arrest.
Of the many devices introduced to
overcome this drawback to satisfactory
night driving, one with a projecting
horn-shaped shield is decidedly different.
The shield intercepts the upward rays
and deflects them downward upon the
roadway, just where the light is wanted.
The roadway is illuminated not only
ahead of the car, but directly in front.
A touch of novelty is added by a green

"HELPING HENRY" HELPS
THE FARMER
« LJ ELPING HENRY" is a most promising
ally of the man who runs an
up-to-date farm, for he links up the
Ford, Overland, or other motor car engine
to the various machines about the
place. "Helping Henry", in brief, is a
frame which is run under the rear wheels
en an automobile, jacks up the car, takes
off power from the wheels and delivers
it by means of a pulley and belt wherever

The contact by which power is taken

wheels against the automobile tires, and
the force of friction is relied upon to
drive the "Helping Henry" mechanism.
In order to insure that this force is
effective, the device not only jacks up
the car, but causes it to settle back somewhat,
so that the rear tires rest firmly
against the driving wheels of the device.
The device has the further advantage
that it can be strapped to the runningboard
and taken to a neighbor's or into
the field—anywhere, in fact, that the car
can go, where machinery is ran.
