moments we did not dare hope, ourselves,
that we could attain such a magnificent
measure of value.
The picture was made direct from pho
tograph.
Now try and conceive a car almost as
silent as the photograph ;tself-a car
vibrant with pent-up power under finger
tip CONTROL car that will glide noiselessly
up alongside the aristocracy of motordom
and lack nothing that the latter possesses
except a higher price-and you will have
formed fair mental picture OF. the revela-
ton that awaits you.
Dismiss from your mind the idea that you
have ever seen 1ow-priced car which was
in the same class as this $14oo four-cylinder
3o-horsepower Cadillac.
Where you have seen little cars at a low
price, you will now see big car at a low
price.
Where you have hitherto seen spidery
outlines and bandbox proportions you will
now see size and strength and dignity.
Where you have seen Indifferent material
skimped and saved to make possible low
price, you will now see car built of the
finest steels money can buy, used in full and
generous measure-and the same painstak-
ing, conscientious system of construction,
down to the last nut and bolt, that has been
typical of the Cadillac plant from the first
year of its history.
Where you have seen cars whose vital
plants were bought ready-made-iI fitting,
loose and out of gauge-from half dozen
factories, and then assembled" for brief
and inglorious career-you will now see a
car whose low price is made possible only
by the fact that it is manufactured in every
item OF its makeup under one roof which
covers the most scientific automobile equip
ment in the world.
The mere announcement of our plans let
loose an avalanche of inquiries 1t shook
the industry from centre to circumference
Then came the inevitable prediction that
our ideas were too colossal-that we could
not carry them out
Well, the car is here-and by August Ist,
1908, more than one-half of the output had
been sold.
Hundreds of visitors and dealers have rid
den in the car; have seen it perform under
every possible condition-and without
single dissenting voice they have de-
clared in effect that they have seen no car
at double the price which can equal the four
cylinder, 3o-horsepower, fve-passenger Ca
dillac.
There is every indication that the output
of these cars, enormous as it will be, will
not be nearly sufficient to meet the de-
mands. We therefore urge upon you the
importance of placing a reservation with
your dealer at once.

INTERCHANGEABILITY - InterchangeabiIity
of parts is a feature which most makers claim for
their cars yet few of them really possess it in its
true sense. Interchangeability means that every

but exactly SO, in many to the onethOusandth

must be replaced a one may be ordered from

possible only in factories possessing the most
plete equipment of machinery and tools capable of
producing accurate work and where these are kept
in the most perfect condition at all times.
