HONT POISON VOl'U llATTtmiEM "Batteries, like human beings, are susceptible to poison." says C. A. Unch, local Willard expert. "When It comes to giving medicine to a battery, the only sate rule Is to let an expert write the prescrip tion and administer the dose other wise, the car owner Is likely. to find out that his battery haa been killed Instead of cured." "There Is one thing In particular that Is Just about as bad aa any polon you could give your batteries. That Is acid. Of course there Is acid In the battery solution, and a good many car ownera will reason, 'It acid Is what makes my batteries strong, then the proper thing to do a hen 1 think It-shows a weakness Is to add a little more acid. Then it ought to work 'better.' "That's altogether wrong, You might as well say that because a few drops of some powerful drug are good tor heart trouble, a whole bot tle would give the patient a better heart than anybody In the country. Not even the worst patent medicine fiend would be foolish enough to be lieve that. "But there's a lot of people who believe In drugging a battery In Just this way, so they put In about a half pint of acid, whon the battery only needs pure water. "The only way to be aate about adding acid la to fight shy or It. If yon think your batteries need acid, go fd the Service Station and get advice from an expert who ran tell yon Just what to do. Remember that he has the same relation to the health of your battery as a doctor has to your own health, with this exception that the 'battery man doesn't charge anything for the diagnosis." 23 Experimental Spraying Professor W.
