Remember, there's more due your motor than gasoline which starts quickly That's a common quality with good gasolines YOUR motor-pistons should receive a pow erful thrust, not a sudden crashing blow upon the head. That thrust should come from a sort of se ries of explosions which deliver power impulses throughout the entire length of each piston's stroke. Non-detonating gasoline produces such explosions and Union is noti'detonaU ing gasoline. A swift, vibrationless acceleration, gliding, Tushing speed and mini mized "knocking" on hills and through heavy pulls are the results. To use this fuel is to insure your motor's best performance.' .
