Cotton, from a worthless weed infesting the highways Of
agriculture, has become the worlds most useful product. The
splendor Of its fibre attracted the attention Of the inventive

milton of the producer and appealed to the wisdom Of the con-
sumner and with these powerful allies, it has fought it's battles
on every merchants counter on the globe and has conquered
az per cent of the textile trade of the world. Wool has been its
strongest rival, but the result Of the centurys contest shows cotton

This was because the Maxwell "Mascottc'' is
the first real high-grade family touring car ever
offered the public for less than $1,000.
That it fits the niche we knew was waiting for it,
has been amply proven by the manner in which it
waSreceived by the public at the shows.
AT all the shows the Maxwell "Mascottc" drew
enthusiastic approval. 1t was conceded wonderful
value. Such judgment by the motoring public
demands your consideration in your search for The
best car az the price.
No other car at such a price meets so completely
the requirements of the family man-the man of
moderate income.
