HANDY CLOTHS
As a. rule it is almost impossible to touch anything under tho bonnet of a car without getting a little grease or oil upon one’s hands. Tho smallest adjustment invariably results in a hunt for a cloth upon which to wipe off the grease which would otherwise be transferred to the steering wheel so that one’s hands become dirty every lime the car is taken out. Rags carried in the door pockets or in other parts of the enr are never convenient when wanted. This trouble may be overcome bv employing an ordinary spring-clamp type of wooden clothes peg. Two little holes are drilled through it and it. is fastened with bolts to the engine side of the dashboard under the bonnet. In tho iaws of this clothes peg can be carried a fair-sized wiping rag—a piece of muslin abort a yard square.
