When the talk turns from politics to railroads, and the traveler with the cocksure air breaks in with, "There's an awful lot of 'water' in the railroads," here are some hard-pan facts to give him: American railroads have cost $80,900 a mile ? roadbed, structures, stations, yards, termin als, freight and passenger trains?everything from the great city terminals to the last spike. A good concrete-and-asphalt highway costs $36,000 a mile?just a bare road, not count ing the cost of culverts, bridges, etc. Our railroads couldn't be duplicated to day for $150,000 a mile. They are capitalized for only $71,000 a mile? much less than their actual value. Seventy-one thousand dollars today will buy one locomotive. English railways are capitalized at $274,000 a mile; the French at $155,000; German $132,000; even in Canada (still in pioneer development) they are capitalized^ at $07,000 a rmle^ The average for all foreign countries is $100,000. \ Lx>w capitalization and high operating effici ency have enabled American Railroads to pay the highest wages while charging the lowest rates.

Only one word?Elegance can describe this new CHALMERS Everything in this Chalmers is new except the chassis. It has a new bonnet line, new coach line, new windshield, new top. new seat and seat springs. They catch your eye, those lines, though they are marked by a reserve of rare good tast(. But in those multitudes of little details'the real elegance is expressed ? door handles, square doors, low sitting posi' tion, deep tilt of the cushions, the rug on the tonneau floor. Quality l-'rr<i A volume easily may W: written about them, and any one' of them may alone tempt yyu to ownership. Then when you've had your iirst ride; when you've felt the influence that Hot Spot and RamVhorn have on the actjon of its mooter engine, when you've noted the utter silence, easy starting, the ready response, the cssy effort "up underneath the bonnet" you, too, will say Chalmers is one of the few great c;lts of the world.
