DAZZLE
It's a Wonder Some Cars Don't
Fall Apart, But the
Razzle Dazzle-Ah!

81 understand" said the agent, pull
ing up his chair, "that you are think
ing of selling your car and getting a
late model. We have the car you
want, the Razzle-Dazzle Six, the most
wonderful car in the world, no mat
ter what price. We will take you out
on Freezeout Hill if you want speed,
and run rings around any other car
in town. We can go up that hill on
high slower than Charlie Cayford's s
faithful old delivery horse. Our pat
rons have no maintenance expense
and they regularly get 1872 miles to
the gallon. AS for beauty and luxury

every interesting" interrupted the
victim, "but Pm rather pleased with
the Lightning Limited. What's the
matter with that?"
eff l could tell you what is the mat
ter with the Lightning Limited" the
agent replied impressively, "their
factory could well afford to pay me
100000. They can't find out them
selves what is the matter with it.
"They put on a service car the other
day and l told the manager l Won
dered they hadn't had to put it on
long ago, with all the trouble their
owners have. Why, we only had two
calls for help all last year and one
of them was from woman who had
run out of gasoline and didn't know
it."
"How about the Bright Angel?"
81 can tell you all about the Bright
Angel. You know we are in the same
block with them and the owners are
always getting mixed and coming in
to get US to fix their cars. And ev-
erything in the world is the matter
with those cars. Why, only yester-
day a fellow drove up with one he
had bought this spring and he was
cussing it good and plenty. He
thought l was the Bright Angel man
ager l listened for while and then
l said:
"'You sure did get bum deal on
that car Why don't you trade it in
with US for new one?'
"'Well, might happen to hit bet
ter one,' he says, Frightening up.
'What1l you allow me on it?'
"'I represent real car l an
swers, but I'll be liberal. 1 should
judge from your account of your car
it might mebbe be worth $780,"
"What do you think of the Star
light?" the victim continued. at
looks to me like a pretty car"
"It is pretty car. The fellow who
had the agency last year told me if he
had kept it another year he would
have been on the town. The Ameri-
can Tin Can Company makes its ra-
diator, you know"
"What car did he take on in place
of the Starlight?"
"He took the Saint. We call that
the cast iron wonder"
81 have been rather attracted by
the Aurora Borealis. Isn't that all
right?"
"Sure. Sure. 1t ought to be. They
install a new and far more marvellous
engine in every issue of the Saturday
Evening Stick"
"And there's the Amsterdam ?"
"Yes, there's the Amsterdam Nice
car. Liberal, too. Take your Ford
up there and they offer you $1,000 for
it in a trade. They'll do almost any
thing to sell an Amsterdam. If you
should lay a check for the list price
of that car on the desk everybody
about the place would faint, and you'd
have to phone for doctor.
"But let me tell you about the Raj
zle Dazzle We have all the latest re-
fnements, bearings and accessories
you wouldn't find on a car at twice
the price, and"
The victim had gone to sleep.
