Punctures in the well known Mor gan & Wright tire are mended about as easily as a man would close a hole in his finger with a bit of court plas ter. Inside of the inner tube of the tire lies a long- strip of patching rub ber, like this: By Injecting1 M. & W. quick-repair cement through the puncture into this inner tube, and then pressing1 down on the tire with the thumb, like this, the repair strip Inside is picked up by the cement, thus closing the puncture, like this: Very simple, but now every rider should remember these two "buts," or he will fail : Before injecting cement, pump up the tire. If you don't, the inner tube will be flabby, like this, and the cement will not get Inside of It, where the repair strip lies. When you have a puncture, get right off. Riding a tire flat, when it has a tack or nail In It, may damage It considerably. ( fJMMso. Free fill Cured Are you tired and overworked H&ve vou tho. languid feeling with loss of ambition?
