You may be cool as a cucumber, but you are conveyed through space by a veritable blast furnace. This is the strange fact cited by H. W.

"The wonder is that oil and grcaso can bu produced specifical ly for each part that will continue to lubricate and protect the metal efficiently without breaking dotvn.
