LONDON (By Mail).—These be weird and wonderful days and you never: know whether the man in the store is there to sell you socks or save your soul. Our parsons are giving up the church as a livelihood and taking up posi- tions as salesmen.

Ca LALLA LLL LLL LEP ALP ELLAPLAAZALALZLEAPZALLALLZLA FOR IMMEDIATE DELIVERY The Essex Roadster is not only a favorite with those who love speed, power and grace above all. A large class of its buyers are business men. They choose it for utility, for dependable transportation. , It becomes in fact, a part of their business system. It must be on the job, keep all engagements on time, and be as responsible as an engineer’s watch. One thing we can’t forget in buying a motor car is the pride of ownership. The automobile is a pleasure vehicle and it spoils the fun to be hopelessly out rivaled by a car that is smaller and costs less to buy . And for the same reason there is a lot of satisfaction in having a car that, though it is small and its cost is less, does out-perform all of its class and has few rivals‘ among the large, costlier au- tomobiles. Note the ‘Advantag The Essex is not a large car, neither is it tiny. No space is wasted.” No éxtra weight ‘is used. Neither pas- sengers or driver are crowded. They have plenty of room on the seats and for their legs. The size of the Essex gives it many advantages, including moderate cost and opetating economy. And think how much more convenient to drive. It slips through traffic that a larger car can not negotiate. It can be parked in'space that others can not squeeze into, It turns in a short radius. ESSEX ROADSTER Classiest Roadster that can be designed. Par- ticularly suited for business needs; dependable trans- portation, economy, smart at moderate cost. Note, These Special Business Conveniences The Essex Roadster is particularly suit for sales- men, visiting representatives, inspectors and others who must make widely scattered calls. Though not large, the Roadster is commodious. There is plenty of room for passengers, and special arrangements for carrying sample cases, unseen, and even a trunk if desired.
