bers OF the line for 1915. These models
are shown in three body styles, the con-
ventional tonneau with four doors and
two designs originated by the Kissels,
one having two doors and the other three
doors, with a corridor between the front
seats. The three door type is a seven
passenger car, and third door being on

The solar head lamps are mounted on
rounded pillars, Rail mouldings are OF
cast aluminium.
The regular tire equipment includes
non-skid rear tires. Extra tires are car

out OF the way and look best. The gaso-
lene supply tank Is also in the rear The
disadvantages OF pressure feed are clint

Therefore the confident and well poised

although not such rpaid one.
Take the giant locomotive OF to-day
for instance. and compare Il with the
steam engine OF twenty five years ago.
The old fashioned steam engine cost moro
than the powerful modern locomotive, Yet
1t was vastly inferior in point OF efficiency,
speed, power and all around goodness.
Another analogy can be found between
tn automobile and the watch making

watch was a luxury. A good watch used
to cost $3.50 10 5000, Now n reliable,
guaranteed timepiece can be bought for
sl2. one well known maker now charges
$40 for far better watch than that
priced a. s1j a few years ago
And so on with typewriters, cash reg
isters and other present day makers for
efficiency and savers of time. To 20
down the list II Is found that in every
case a tier instrument or machine can
be purchased to-day at lower cost
Whereas the Industries Just mentioned
have been the result OF gradual develop
ment through n generation or two, the
automobile business by contrast has
shown amazing progress within the past
Ave to ten years No one would have
thought ten years ago that handsome,
economical, efficient two passenger car

struction would ever be produced 10 sell

Large volume Of business, together with
the fact that its engineers are men of
long automobile experience. Is the reason
why the Saxon company can produce
cars at our prices. Such prices would
have been out of the question two years
ago Four cylinder cars, for instance,
were several hundred dollars higher in
price than we are able to build them for.
while the manufacturers OF six cylinder
cars were TO be found only In the high
priced and medium priced fields.
In fact we are first to answer the de-
mand for a roomy, fully equipped six cyl
inder car at n low price Just as a year
ago we were first to produce a four cyl
inder automobile embodyng standard
ideas throughout at price below $500.
Several years ago each OF these models
would have sold at three times the price
that is now possibe This Is n concrete
example OF what the rapid development
of the automobile business has done for
one company.

The principal cities of Kansas will
be connected by huge chain of inter
urbans within a few years. if the pres
ent plans are carried out. The latest
line is an extension of the Kansas
City-Olathe line to Lawrence and To-
peka.
The right of way for this line has
already been procured from Zarah on
the present interurban, to Lawrence.
Engineers for the proposed line have
been in Topeka and Lawrence, look
ing over routes for the railway to this
city
At the present time, Topeka has no
interurban system, yet ''all roads lead
to Topeka" is the motto of the many
lines which are gradually being built
in this direction. A few of those which
will directly or indirectly affect To-
peka are:
The Kansas City. Kaw Valley &
Western; this line is operating cars
from Kansas City to Bonner Springs
and grading is being done between the
latter town and Lawrence; it will
eventually extend to Topeka.
The line from the cities in the CEN
trail part of the state east, from Sa-
lima, Manhattan and Junction City to
Topeka. Most of the cities in that
part of Kansas have interurban sys-
TENS and by building few connecting
links and a line from Manhattan to
Topeka, it would join the road built
from Kansas City.
The electric railways from Kansas
City to st. Joseph, via Leavenworth,
the road to Olathe, the system in
southeastern Kansas, the lines at
Newton Hutchinson Arkansas City
and Wichita and others all may be
brought together if the proposed plans
of interurban magnateS materialize.
