THE IDEAL AUTOMOBILE.
Low Cost, Durability. and Speed Nee

Low Cost, Durability. and Speed Nee
essary.
The automobile has been sufficiently
long in our midst to enable us to define
the essential qualities which go to
make up an ideal machine, says the
Scientific American. Naming them in
their order they are as follows Low
cost, durability, endurance Qarge fuel
supply, ability to climb hill and speed.
Low cost is given the first place for the
reason that the present price Of the au-
tomobile places it altogether beyond
the means of the average individual,
and renders it a very decided luxury.
1t is certain that cheapening the cost
will produce a proportionate increase
in the demand, and an increased de-
mand will lead in its turn to redue-
ton in the price. This was cenelu-
siyely proved in the history of the BIZ
cycle, the cost of irst-elass machine
today being about one-quarter what it
was few years ago, when the number
of riders was limited. But while the
ideal automobile must be cheap, the
at the expense of sound materials and
good workmanship However great
may be the demand for low-priced
machine, our manufacturers must new
er attempt to meet it by making
short cut by way of snowy but inferior
construction. The folly of such meth
cd was demonstrated very conclusive
~ when the bicycle was at the height
of its popularity. Next to its low cost
and durability we place the endurance
of the automobile, by which we mean
its capacity to cover a large mileage
without having to refill its fuel tanks.
Liberal fuel capacity will be a very
strong recommendation to the bicyclist
who has been accustomed to rove all
day on long distance excursions with
the knowledge that he is not tied to
particular stopping places, or liable to
be hopelessly Stalled" by collapse
of his motive power in out-of-the-way
or unexpected places.
