The Dulgln modol Is built for
sorvlco and high efficiency. Ono
glance along Its lino will convlneo
a blind man that It represents por
foctlon and all that a practical man
needs In every day life.
The motive power la built on a
solid basis, hearlly concealed and
dorelops surprising results even In
abort drives. This model presents
a straight forward appearanco with
an electric system Increased to tho
powor of the x-ray and which easily
penetrates all object In Its path.
Thoro can be no orerboatlng In
this model. The radiating surface
Is extra largo and tho oiling system
works porfoctly by means of tho In
visible distributor which eliminates
all friction. Doth hot and cold air
aro used In propor proportions and
always at tho right time,
Tho carburotor adjustments aro
automatic for all classes of weather
and cllnutto and should thero bo an
occasional back flro It noror falls

Tho whoel baso Is exceptionally
under tho arorago model, being bul
72 Inches, but when this model of
six foot begins to "purr" It "takes
tho road" In a manner to startle tho
natives and no ono should daro get
In front.
Dr. B. J. Dulgln Is said to, have
a model of evangelism all his own.
He Is a 'model' which nit son all sU
and never misses. His 'model' Is
equipped with ntultlple transmis
sion "gears and Is a winner. This
model will enable you to glide over
tho hard surface of Illblo truths with
wonderful swiftness, or climb suc
cessfully tho most difficult hill of
doubt. With It you can easily shirt
to a gear which will enable you to

It Is In fact a wonderful 'model,'
with not much bras or nlckle to

Los Angeles county Is far In tho

Brakes Prevent
Many Accidents
Kvor slnco automobiles camo Into
general uso cnglncor and manufac
turora hnvo boon working to make
thorn safer In operation. Non-skid
tires and tiro chains, Improved
bumpors, non-splintering wlndshlolds,
more practical headlights and various
dimming devices all 'hav contrib
uted to tho prevention of accidents.
Out tho brakes are, porbaps, most
Important of all. On tho earliest
cars a single transmission brake was
used, but as chassis wero Insulted
a set of two additional emergency
brakes waa mounted on the rear
wheel. Tho general adoption of an
equalizer to distribute the braking
strain evenly between the two wheel
waa a marked Improvement. About
this time most of the manufacturers
abandoned the transmission brake In
favor ot a doublo set of rear wheel
brakes ono set for service and the
other for emergency.
For many years the only further
improvements In brakes wore minor
refinements, such as larger drums,
hotter lining, simpler linkage, etc. A
recent development has been a brake
of the hydraullcally operated type.
A four-wheeled system of service
brakes was recently designed for
Fred S. Duescnberg, the racing car
doslgner, and embodied In the new
Duescnberg straight eight, a car with
a single block onglne comprising
eight cylinders In a row, and manu
factured by tho Duosenberg Automo
bile &. Motors Co., Inc., of Indianap
olis, Ind.
Theso brakes aro foot-actuated, In
accordance with tho regular prac
tice, but tho motion' ot the brake
pedal, Instead of being Imparted to
the brakes by a direct mechanical
linkage. Is transmitted by columns
of oil under pressure.
When the brake pedal la pressed
down, oil Is forced from the master
cylinder through tho pipe lines to
all four brako cylinders, and the
brake sectors aro applied to tho ln
terhat surtaco ot the brako drums
with great force. As soon as the
pressure on tho brako pedal Is re
leased the return springs withdraw
the sectors from tho drum. This
hydraulic systom for the transmis
sion ot brake actuating pressure not
only does away with a multitude ot
