Good oil represents an insignificant item in
car operating costs. Yet nothing is so vitality
important in warding of heavy upkeep-or
that rack.and.rattle that kills so much of the
JOY of motoring.
Use atlantic Medium. 1t is the highest
achievement in motor oil refining! Only the
most suitable heat.resisting crude oil hydro.
carbons are used in it, while ffty.fve years of
refining experience and twenty-five years of
special study of automotive fabrication assure
quality and correctness that admit of no
mistake.
The way Atlantic Medium retains it's
body" under varying operation conditions is
remarkable. Not bearing that this oil will
not reach; not pressure it cannot withstand
not cylinder heat it won't resist. You can
depend absolutely on Atlantic Medium to keep
friction surfaces apart
Ask definitely for Atlantic Medium" and
you'll never have occasion to 60 heavy on your
purse for motor repairs.
