ICE BROKING
PREST-G-LITE'S
Double Message to Car Owners
Here is a two-fisted batten offer to
the owners and drivers of automobiles:
Prcst-O-Lite's 1922 prices, The Great
est Battery Values:
Prest-O-Flates, the greatest advance
in battery making.
Either one singles out Prest-O-Lite
from other batteries. Combined they
make it a battery value without a rival.
Money-Saving Figures
Prest-O-Lite Batteries represent the
greatest value in years. Consider that
you can buy a regular Prest-O-Lite
Battery for popular makes of light cars
for $20.90 (trade-in price).
Here are other outstanding values:
$25.90 (trade-in price) for a 6-volt type
serving
BUICK
OAKLAND
MAXWELL
HUDSON
CHANDLER
ESSEX
DODGE FRANKLIN
are similar reductions o:
12-volt type at $33.90 (trade-in price)
that serves
MAXWELL
There
every Prert-O-Lite Batttry, and Prest-O-Lite
builds a correct type of bat
tery for every make of motor car and
truck.
Yes, With PREST-O-PLATES
These are not special models. They
are top-quality Prest-O-Lites, with the
famous Prest-O-Plates.
Prest-O-Plates are as different from
ordinary battery plates as gold is from
gilt. They combine unusual hard
ness with a peculiar porosity. None
of the old plate compromise between
hardness and porosity. Frest-O-Plates
have both.
This explains their reac'y c'p3nd
able reserve power in biti'1 zero
weather, and their non-buckling,
heat-resisting strength in summer.
Experts ray that they are the world's
best battery plate, and this is the same
as saying that Preot-O-Lite io the
world's best battery.
For the life of a battery is in the
plates. You never need a new bat
tery unil the plates in your old s'o
bad. As long as you have Jive plates,
you have a battery.
Doubly Guaranteed
And every part of n Prest-O-Lite
Battery is worthy, in material and
workmanship, of Prest-0-Plate3.
That is v.Jiy 87 leadins manufac
turers specify Prest-O-Lite as original
equipment, and "the list is growing."
Every Prest-O-Lite is becked by
the regular Prest-O-Lite guaranty, a
definite obligation, plus a spirit that
says the car owner must be pleased.
Use PltEST-P-LlTE Service
It is our business, as part of Prest-O-Lite
Service, the oldest organized
service to motorists, to cairy out this
spirit; and to see that you get every bit
of life out of a Prett-O-Lite Eattery.

When "No h Good Sometimes
Isn't It Better At All Times?
A groat many people have learned to eay "! "
to tea or crtTee at noon and at night learn?d it ..t
the cost of jumping nerves and disturbed digestion.
Thousands of others who passed through
that stage have learned to say "No" to tea and
coffee all the time, and havs found a most satis
factory "Yes" in Poaturn.
Postum'3 full, rich flavor delights the taste
and meets all the demands for a hot, mealtimo
drink, and it contains no element that can harm
anybody. Even little children may share in tha
delights of a hot cup of Postum with any meal.
Whether or not the thein in tea or the caffeine
in coffee has begun to serve warnings on you,
you can profit by the experience of others and by
the information which any doctor can give you
and find charm without hr.rm in Postum.
Suppose yoU make the test for ten days, with
well-made Postum, and compare the "feul" with
your former experience with tea ar,d coffee.
Your grocer Bells both forms of Postum: Instant Pn'jium
