Novel Motor Car Cycle Tubes.
English motor-cyclists are trying an innovation in inner tubes. Instead of the old method of laying the ends of the tubes over each other in the outer casing, they are now slipping one end into the other, somewhat on the principle of a valve. Dome ends are supplied which can be cemented to tbe ends of an vjmotor-cyclo tube. One of these dome ends, made of a somewhat thicker rubber than tbe tube itself, is closed and shaped a dome. It is claimed for these dome ends that they obviate the rubbing of the two ends of the tube which were overlapped in the former method of placing them in the outer casing.
