Positively Prevents Punetures
t another one of those
ty eae HM Ze.
OW, please don't say, “Oh, ju
Ure-fillers,” and let it go at that? ESSENKAY isa tire-filler,
but mot the kind vou probably have in mind. It is nothing
like the ones that have been tried and found waning, but is a won-
derful discovery that has at last solved the problem of a real substi-
tute for air. .
Cuts Your Tire Cost in Half
ESSENKAY not only positively prevents punctures and “blowouts,”
{there is no air to puncture or “blowout”, but also doubles life of your cazings
and saves half your tire cost. First cost of ESSENKAY is your Jari com, as it lasts
for many years and is transferrable from one set of casings to another indefinitely,
