HUBPHY Impossible Motor W GarV E FIND this b the attitude of many people who come into oar salesroom before they know anything about the MaxweU. Not until the MaxweQ is shown and demon strated to them until they sit b it and examine the finish until they ride in it or perhaps not unfil they drhre it themselves, do they realize what a tremendous value is off ered in the MaxweQ car. I b not unusual that Maxwell value should not be known to everyone, because it is uncom mon to find such a car for a good margin more than the Maxwell price. - The Maxwell stands absolutely alone in a highly competitive field, for the amount of value it offers for the price. Appearance 'The lines of the Maxwell are decidedly , attractive. There is no break in the contour from the radiator to the back of the car. The fenders are gracefully shaped. All metal parts are enameled or nickel-plated. The uphol stery b deep and weD-finbhed. From any angle it b a car that the owner can be proud of. To Get So Much aliie For The Momey ' Motor The engine b the MaxweQ car b not equalled by any other four-cylinder engine of its size. And we know of larger and more expensive cars that have less able power plants. The Max weQ engine carries its load through mud and sand or over the steepest grades without a falter. ' Qooiry The materials b the MaxweQ car are the best that can be bought and the workman ship that turns them into finb&ed parts b no less excellent. It b only the large production of the MaxweQ factories that makes it possible to put such quality of materials and workmanship bto a car selling at the MaxweQ price. Economy--With its other attractive features, the MaxweQ b a most economical car to own. Owners get 22 to 25 miles per gallon of gasoline and 8,000 to 12,000 miles per set of tires. And the car lb so durably built that repair expense b negligible. We are sure you want a car such as we have described the MaxweQ to be. If you wiQ give us a few minutes of your time we are sure we can convince you that the MaxweQ Car b an excep tional value. Come b today. 1 iJL Touring Car $655 Roadster $635 . F. O. B. DETROIT .
