You want high mileage per gallon of gasoline and freedom from repairs , and readjustments. And you want these things, not occasionally, .but continuously?day after day. On these qualities the Maxwell has made good. It has proved its worth. When the Maxwell stock touring car set the World's Motor Non-Stop Mileage Record a short time ago it travelled for 44 consecutive days and nights and its performance was con? sistent. It went about 500 miles each and every day. It went within a small fraction pf 22 miles to every .gjallori of gasoline.j It went the whole dis? tance of 22#00 miles^probably ftiiw ther than yott would travel to 1 years?without a^'repairs of teacfc ji^tm^fits. lErvery one gf^tiue* (two .sets) went jupt about 9,8M miles ?nd thecthers finished in good dhape.
