Of selling leather and buying new

When he had completed the build

struck him.
He bored an auger hole through
the doorpost and stuck a calf's tail
into it with the tufted end outside.
After awhile he saw a solemn
faced man standing near the door
looking at the sign. The tanner
watched him a minute and then
stepped out and addressed him.
"Good morning, STRIP he said.

Best Value for the Money

When say s'the best value for the money we do
not make vague sclaim" but statement based on the
actual performance Of the Chalmers cars as compared
with others of its class The Chalmers has never been
defeated By any of its power and price.
This record alone is enough to prove that it is the
best for the money but when the makers honestly
say that 1t has for two years contests in proper
ton to the number entered than any other made that
it holds the speed record for light cars that the famous
Chalmers Blue Bird" the hardest Gdden Tour ever
held they have conclusive proof that the Chalmers is not
only the best for the money but better than most high
priced by tests made under actual working conditions
Not only the conditions the same as the ordinary
buyer would encounter but these tests were made with
stock cdrsthe for which the customer pays his
cold cahnot that have been built at great added
cost, especially for these races and contests.

The four-speed transmission is found only on high
priced cars and was hitherto unknown in the medium
priced cars.
Direct drive is the fourth speed third speed
provided which will carry you the hardest grades
without loss Of time If very steep hill is encountered
you can still drop back to second, which Is powerful
enough for the spest grade and yet much faster than
first speed Of an ordinary car
