Consistency
YOU want a motor car that will
servo you consistently. You
want to know that your car can
be relied upon day in and day out.
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
