AUTOMOBILE OWNERS.

putting his car in shape for next
spring.
1t is better to replace worn bear
ing, broken ball, worn bushing,
or take up the play in the gears,
while your car is torn down for over
hauling than to tear it down four
times during the running season in
order to replace them one at time.
It's much cheaper, too, and it doesn't
spoil a trip or holiday.
We do not charge storage from now
until spring on cars that we overhaul.
We make this offer because repair
