MINOR CHANGES ONLY IN AUJ9S FOR 1913 One troublesome problem of design forced upon motor car makers by ths sdoptlon of fore door bodies with the drive Inslds was to supply plsnty of room for th operatlpn of the vsrious levers and to relley the driver of the dlscomrort or a crampaa poemon. Tble difficulty It is believed will be completely overcome In the 1113 cars by making the eupertructurea ecep tlonally wide from tha dash through to the rear of the car, and extending then over the chassis frame six incnes on sither side. This will give ample room for the manipulation of the control levera and at tha same time endows the entire body of the car with a spaciousness that a Ereat aid to comfort. The ror doora give th exterior of the body free weeping, unbroken aurface and permit of a levol parapet which greatly in creases the beauty of the construction. These changes and a few minor re finements are about all that can be ex pected for the 1913 car. Don't try the spark plugs In tha open and conclude that they are In working order slmbly because they deliver a spark; the voltage required when the spark plugs are screwed into th cyl Inder Is greater on account of the higher compression. II D TTOR $1750 you can do more in automobile buying than you could have done a few years ago with five times the amount. Think of itl The new Mitchell six cylinder, 41? H.-P., five passenger touring car for $1750. BK what you can do with the car is even more wonderful; no roads, no hills, no mud nor sand that can be negotiated by other cars will stop this powerful and simple engine It will take you where you want to go and bring you back again. All parts are easily accessible and simple to adjust and care for. Mitchell service is an ideal tervicei it takes such care of the lownerj of Mitchell cars that it makes friends of them for all time. That's the Mitchell idea of business methods; such methods have kept Mitchell vehicles in the lead for 77 years, and will do the same for the next 77 years, because the Mitchell is built for the man who can't afford to make a mistake.

To thos who are not already using Pennsylvania Tires, we will say in all candor that there has nev;er been a tire made that will equal them for service. While the Vacuum Cup Tires are guaranteed for 4000 miles actual service, our past two years' experience justi fies us in saying the average mileage is more than 8000 miles. Under no condition will these tires skid in any direction, and it is a safe bet that the tires will run their allotted mileage or over without a puncture. Of all the thousands of tires that we have sold, we have yet to see one that has blown out on the side. The factory's guarantee against skidding is to the effect that If your car skids on wet or greasy pavements with a set of Vacuum Cup tires, we will bear the full expense of your tire equipment, and If, after a reasonable time, the tires do not fulfill every claim re garding their anti-skid qualities, the tires may be returned and you receive back the full price you paid. These guarantees are made on faith and are unqualified. The cup-shaped rubber knobs Insure safer going and longer service, and even when the rubber cups wear down, the tread, -which is of double thickness, comes Into use with Its full service still in reserve. The Pennsylvania Rubber Company Is not a trust, nor Is it . affiliated with any trade association or combination. It Is op erating entirely independent and it is Its business policy to do business on the square. When you do business with us, you encounter no red tape, nor do we do business in triplicate, as Is the case with all of the tire branches now being operated. We pay our taxes here instead of evading them in New York or some other favorable Eastern center where combinations and allied associations thrive Pennsylvania Vacuum-Cup Tires are equally as effective in dry as in wet weather, as the large vacuum-cup knobs will hold the tires up away from the ordinary small pieces of glass and crushed stone that are so destructive to the ordinary tire. An increase exceeding 500 per cent in sales for 1912 and the consequent extension of manufacturing facilities enables the fac tory to announce a reduction in prices for Pennsylvania Vacuum Cup Tires. Vacuum-Cup Tires, assuring 4000 miles of service, will now be supplied at practically the same prices as asked for less effective non-skid tires of other makes offered under a less liberal guarantee. Pennsylvania Tires carry the most liberal guarantee of any tire ever sold. A. J.
