ears they operate and at great saving In
cost and expense of operation.
But users of good light weight cars are
the most urgent supporters of the Essex.
They see in it all the advantages they
know in their cars, with the additional
qualities of cars that cost two and three
times as much as they have paid for their
automobiles. =
.-.<s Essex Qualities Not
Comparable to Any Car
No other one car is like the Essex in de-
gree of beauty, comfort, performance or
endurance. Other cars closely match it in
some of these particulars. But those who
attempt to describe the Essex use dozen
different weltknown makes for comparison.
Its ightness and cost are compared to the
cars best known for their class. Perform
ancet comparisons 60 into the high-priced
car field. Essex speed, Essex acceleration
and Essex hill climbing are almost invaria-
bly, stated in terms Of such performance
as are made by cars best known In those
particulars. g. -saes- rSs3 -.
The finest and eostliest closed cars are
referred to as being the nearest to Essex in
riding quality.
Cars that have proved their leadership IN
the field of endurance are the standard BY.
which the long life of the Essex is meas
ured.
Get acquainted with the Essex. Let rs
prove to your satisfaction that the Essex is
all other people say it is.

Advertise the Essex

We have found no way to describe the
Essex that is half SO impressive as an actual
ride in the car.
The Essex was announced with the state
ment that it was to be advertised by those
who would ride in it. The car would not be
advertised as other cars have BEEN adj
vertised.
No claims would be made for it. People
We're asked to 60 see it-take a ride, and we
would rely upon its quality to speak for
itself.
You know how the Essex has won its
place by what people are saying about it.
On the first day the Essex was shown
January 16th-close to five thousand peo-,
pie in all parts of the country responded to
: the invitation to ride in the Essex.
The Essex Has Been
Expected Two Years
The response was large because the Essex
had been expected for two years. But only
few had been permitted to ride in it up to
that time.
Now it is known in every section.
It has awakened the interest of all who
realize the value of low first cost, economical
operation, combined with qualities of per-
Torrance, riding ease, endurance and other
attractions heretofore obtainable in only
large and costly cars.
Users of big cars are enthusiastic over
the Essex because they have found it to
possess the very qualities most priced in the

FACES PERIL AT SEA
wife Of Son Of Ex-President
Hayes Tells Experiences.
Shipwreck, Storm, Maddened Lions
and Tigers Among Her
Adventures.

New York.-Shipwreck, storm and
peril from lions and tigers that were
driven insane with fear were among
the adventures recounted by Maud A.
Hayes, wife of Scott Hayes, son Of
former President Rutherford B. Hayes,
who arrived here with her husband
from a trip to South America.
Mrs. Hayes sailed from New York
May 20 on the Chilean mail steamer IL
mari. On June 8 in calm sea the
Limari went aground off Santa Rose,
on the north shore of Peru. Passen-
gers and crew took to the boats and
few hours later encountered violent
storm which Mrs. Hayes said dashed the
waves to height Of 30 feet and tossed
the lifeboats about like cOckleshells.
The refugees were finally rescued by
the Peruvian ship Mantaro, but only to
be confronted with a new peril.
The Mantaro carried travelling
menagerie and the lions, tigers and
monkeys were driven frantic by the
storm. The larger animals made des-
perate efforts to break from their cages
and their bowls added to the terrors
Of the storm, while the monkeys actu-
ally did escape, and fed, chattering
wildly, to all parts Of the ship.
Mrs. Hayes arrived here on the Santa
Luise from Valparaiso.
Capt. w. T. CrOssely commander OF
the ship, said that 300 persons lost
their lives in the storm, which ravaged
the port of Valparaiso July Is.
The Santa Luise was taken 100 miles
out to sea to weather the storm. which
sent to the bottom about ten ships, in
which had remained in port.
