ages to /.
| 3. Double exhaust pipes and muf-
f1ers of eight and twelve cylinder cars

i>wire would pass through the safety
i gap instead of running the armature
bys~forcing a passage through its in
i sulation. q

points for an engine with high COM
preston is twenty thousandths of an

HOME

This commodious HOME would be no less striking in ap- pearance in the center of solid city block than if isolated amid extensive grounds. And yet its very attractive exterior is not what we consider it's most desir- able feature. Just study the in- terior arrangement and you will realize why we are so proud of this delightful home. Start with the second floor. Did you ever see more pleasant sleeping quar- ters. Every bedroom has plen- ty of light and air.
 Just study this plan in the light of the way YOU live, and see how beautifully 1t meets your requirements. And the price is so much less than you think it could possibly be that we want to whisper it to you, just to prove our claim that we can provide you with '"The Most Home for the Least Cost"
