Miss AN ENGINE that gets results from' EVERY LAST DROP OF GAS The great Chalmers , engine makes a drop of gas spin four wheels a long way. It gets out of gas all the kick there's in gas. And it doesn't perform the operation extravagantly. To the contrary, it is a stingy engine. Just as food thoroughly chewed delivers more nourishment to the body, so does this great Chalmers engine get all the good out of gas. . It possesses two remarkable features which help accomplish such wonderful results. One is the now noted "hot spot," situated at the mouth of the intake manifold.. This heats up and "cracks up" the gas coming from the car buretor. It produces a perfect vaporization. The second is the ingenious "ram's-horn" manifold. By means of its "easy air bends" it passes "the gas thus vaporized to the combustion chambers in 100 per cent condition. Those two devices contribute greatly to the engine efficiency of the current Chalmers. Particularly on a cold day they make the engine start quickly and attain power in a few seconds. But, these are only two of some twenty-odd new perfections in the current Chalmers. Come view the new Chalmers and have the delight of locat ing them yourself. TOURING CAR. 7.
