The joy of touring is not only a greater joy in the Cadillac, but it calls into being a new set of physical and mental sensations. Your mind is released from its thralldom to the car, and turns a thousand times more often to the beauty of the road, of the eky and of the landscape. You may travel many a pleasurable mile in many a car, and still never be free from discom forts. But when the Cadillac shows you true luxury, then you see how much MORE PLEASURABLE every mile might be. In the Cadillac, you travel almost continuously on high gear under throttle control. The power-application is so fluid that, when you accelerate the speed, the effect is very much as though you had "turned on" the power as you. "turn on" water. by opening the spigot. As for sound and vibration, the engine scarcely seems to be energizing at all. imtrinsic value, performance value, social value, in all three, the Eight-Cylinder Cadillac is America's one incomparable motor car. You KNOW that you get these qualities in the Cadillac "Eight" Where else can you get them? (The price of the Seven-Passenger Touring Car. Phaeton or Roadster is $2590, f. o. b.
