They're Deadly Foes to Gas Waste—the Chalmers Hot Spot and Ram's-Horn Manifold These are days when the sagacious person is cutting out all forms of waste in his shop and in his home. No doubt a condition that has sent thousands to see the new Chalmers with its two great devices that Hooverize gas. i One of them is the now noted Hot Spot, which cracks up and heats up the raw gas into a cooked condition for wonderful power results. The other is the Ram's-Horn Manifold, which of the two is prob ably an even greater device. For it takes the gas vapor from the Hot Spot and carries it 14 inches equi-distant to each cylinder without sharp turns, angles or pockets where the vapor might lodge. ' So that at the moment of sparking, the gas is (like the charge in a large projectile) ready for 100% results. , There's so little that comes out of the exhaust in the form of un burned gas as to be negligible. All the power goes into the crank-shaft and out of the rear wheels. And such a soft, luring power that it casts a spell of intense satisfaction • the moment your foot touches the accelerator.
