Nine-tenths of all battery trouble is due to short circuits in the battery itself. Eliminate the short circuit and you have lengthened the life of your battery two to three times over. Vesta plates are Rocked apart, which prevents short circuits. But Vesta goes still further. They are impregnated separators which do not rot nor turn to a soft wood pulp and fall apart. On top of this the lead plates are hardened by the- use of titanium, which almost eliminates sediment, and gives much longer life. These three patented Vesta features, the only important automobile battery improvements in years, have placed the Vesta in a class by itself. No other battery •can be like the Vesta.—Rensselaer Garage. Post 84, and the G. A. R., to the number of about fifty, met at the ■home of Mrs. S. Rs-Nichols last Friday. A pleasant time was had by all and certainly did justice to the excellent dinner which was served by the ladies, and a general good time was had throughout the day. President Wilson’s speech to congress will be read this afternoon at 3 o’clock and it is probable that before many more hours definite action will be taken in the matter concerning war between this country and Germany.
