OF TRIP TO LEWES

Empire Car

Distance alone is not essential to
prove an automobiles sturdiness.
Some Of the severest strains on mo-
tor car are experienced in short trav-
els under bad road conditions.
Evidence OF this is offered by the
Empire Automobile Company, in the
experience of II. w. Lyndel, Of this
city, who recently made a trip which
he describes as follows:
81 started from Wilmington and
drove TO Lewes, 100 miles. The roads
over three-fourths OF this district
were very good. but the lass twenty
five miles was virtually a sea OF mud
and sand Il had been raining in
southern Delaware almost continu-
ously for three days. At Overlook

stretch extending 20 Nassau because
no cars had cotton through that day,
and because there were some cars
stuck in the mud on that road. We
went through that section. and sew

expressing a certain amount OF con
