RIVERSIDE PUNCTURE - PROOF INNER TUBE 3 GUARANTEE This inner tube is guar anteed for3yeat-8'wear-anl in addition is guaranteed for3 years against puncture by anything from a tuck to a three -inch nail, unless destroyed by blowout. MONTGOMERY WARD & CO. RIVERSIDE Puncture Proof Inner Tube . . . F. R years enjrincers and tire exi)erts have hauled with the idea of a puncture- tiro." W have tested over 2a different ideas . . . everything from solid ruhbrr tires to steel plates in tire casings. All of these, how. ever, had the disadvantage of destroying the easy-riding qualities so necessary in any tire. Two years ago, success crowned our efforts. We solved the problem . . . with Montgomery Ward & Co.'s exclusive RIVERSIDE Puncture Sealing Compound, which is applied to the inside of our Molded Circle Inner Tubes in such a way that you enjoy the same riding comfort as with other tubes without having to worry anv longer about punctures! You ride on air'just the same as ever, and you innate the tire to normal air pressure ex actly as with any other tube. In principle this tube is as simple as A B C. When, the tube is in the tire on your car, this scientific chemical preparation auto matically seals all punctures caused by any thing from a tack to a three-inch nail. Air pressure inside the tube forces the coin- Sound through the puncture and forms a rv, flexible plug between lube and casing, which instantly stops the air-leak, anrl pre vents the tire from going down. This en ables you to continue without the delay and bother of tire-changing ... in fad, you never even know ou bae a piim lure until you see the naif in the tire and pull it out! RIVERSIDE Puncture-Scaling Compound . is not injurious to rubber, but actually-pre-Bcrvcs it. It does not dry up and rot the fabric will not cement the tube to the cas ingnever becomes hard or lumpy and when car is in motion, remains evenly dis tributed in the tube. It will last the life, of the tube ... or until, for some reason, the tube is destroyed by blowout. These tubes have passed the most rigid technical and practical tests lit our labor atory, and todav thousands of motorists throughout the tT. S. A. ride on them with never a worrv about punctures! They are also used and endorsed by famous racers, 1'cderal Secret Service men, and tire, valve and car manufacturers. Yet the prices are no higher than you would puy for many inner tubes which arc NOT puncture-proof ... in fact, the cost of a w hole set for your car w ill not compare with the expense and aniiovance of changing a single tire on a crowded highway. Why not vi-it our store and inspect thee tulics? Have thein demonstrated for you. Then order a complete set and know hat it h to be 1 HEK l'ROM ITNCTt.'RK WORRIES FOR THE .NEXT THREE YEARS! . ..
