The man who once drove horse
who really cared for q horse-will un-
derstand what the bond Of sympathy is,
that bond which made him notice every
limp or misstep. every sign of chatting
or anything else which indicated an irri-
tation. He knew that as long as 1t ex-
listed the horse would not give good
service. Some will understand the love

There is a great deal of difference In
men In respect to their automobiles.
One man will have this feeling of SYM
pathy---almost reverence-while the
other will not. Now an automobile Is q

nism. 1t must have consideration. If 1t

There are many other things, how

which are just as important and should

car suffers in way which means new

little thing and hasten to correct troubles.
Right here it ought to be said that
the best guide In all these matters IS the
book of instructions furnished by the
car manufacturer. He has anticipated
all these things. and tells in the book
about every part of the car, how to take
care Of it and what to do to insure good
service. A good rule for the car owner

To the driver who does not think, a
missing engine is merely an annoyance
and a delay. II never occurs to him
that the car is suffering more than ne Is,
particularly when there is jolt every
time the cylinder does fire. which racks
every part of the car, and even produces
extra wear or the tires.
The man who loves his car UNDER

the trouble is and rectfied It. OF
course. his sensitlveness saved him many
dollars. but If it were not so he would
not be satisfied as long as he thought
the car was suffering.
1t is hardly necessary to explain all
the evils which come from the pound
or vibration of a missing cylinder or
from one of the knocks which some en-
gines produce. One who has ridden in
an auto under these conditions knows
just what 1t will do in the way of
vibration and jerking, but not all under

fact is that it puts a severe strain upon
almost every part Of the car, racking
the frame. smashing the gear teeth to-
gether. straining the clutch. the uni

part. The Jerking motion has its effect

Standard Tires.
One OF the potent arguments against
buying a number of trucks of different

for the truck feet Is a single tire size

ought to guard against multiplicity OF
tire sizes in his fleet.
Fuel Conservation.
Truck operators should make II an in
variable rule that engines must be
stopped when the truck is standing at

tended stop elsewhere. Unless the
drivers are watched they will keep the
engine running to avoid the trouble OF
cranking up. and IN the aggregate these
small wastes of fuel amount TO a con-
siderable item.

THE full force Of this striking
Il statement from an eminent Eng
lish authority will be instantly
apparent to anyone at all familiar
with the fine motor cars of Europe.
It's chief interest and importance
consists in the fact that it places the
Cadillac on parity of excellence
with the best European cars of Uery
much higher price, whose reputa-
ton has rested upon the very points
now conceded to the Cadillac.
Several of these cars have, indeed,
sold hitherto for as much as three
times the price Of the Cadillac;
but the same writer, in another
part Of his editorial, admits that
the Cadillac has broken down the
wall ofprejudice existing in England
against American cars.
by reason of its up-tO-date de-
sign" he says, excellence of
material and workmanship, and
fine performance on the road, it
has for some considerable time
been generally accepted as one of
the finest, if NOT the finest, of
American models imported into
this country"
Again, this same frank admirer cor
roborates the opinion of American
army officers and observers generally,

years, emphasizing the experience
gained in arduous war services, and
pointing out that in many respects
including coachwork and greater
driving comfort and luxury-the
Cadillac shows marked advance over

Herefers again andagain to the beauty
of the Cadillac and its enhanced
charm of appearance, speaking of it
in one instance as giving the impress
sion of a tasteful travelling boudoir

The highly desirable changes of the
past two years in the Cadillac, he
quite properly describes as "the
natural and considered outcome of
extended experience"
"RegardIess of price or size," he
concludes, "the Model 50 Cadillac
approaches the ideal (of perfec-
tom as closely as any other car

With distinguished foreign observers
pronouncing the Cadillac the equal
of their own costliest productions,
which far exceed it in price, what
need is there for us to impress upon
appreciative Americans that the Type
