Dog Knew a Sportsman nt Gave Up in Disgust and Went Home ting some relatives in North Caro- lina last iall during the quail season,” said man. ‘‘Game was plentiful on the yat as Iam a poor hunter and a worse sman, I didn’t participate in the daily shoot- ag. One fine day, however, my uncle insisted jhat I should take his gun and his crack setter, Belle, and go over the game preserves, a mile or so ouse, and try my hand at the quail, ‘ith Belle’s assistance I would be bound to come home with the game bag filled. “He handed me his gun, a lot of car- tridges, called Belle from the shade of a convenient te and, pointing to me, talked to her as if the do understood every word he said, winding up his instructions to her, by saying that he relied upon her to pilot me right and to bring me home again with lots of birds. From the way the setter joked from her master’s face into mine, yawned, Minked her intelligent eyes and barked a couple | ofatlirmative yelps, I am free to say that I believe understood every word of the talk as well as of us. “Atany rate, the dog started for the field with manifestation of joy, piloted me through ines and the brush, and evinced the liveliest ' The Franklin takes nothing for granted, but proves its way from start to finish. Four years ago, the Franklin came out with its four-cylinders, air-cooléd motor, and light- weight non-jarring construction ; and backed up its principle with commonsense logic and a car that did things. But full proof was lacking. Now we have the proof—facts that anybody can see—such proof of ability, endurance, and reliability as places the Franklin in a class byitself. By winning the great Two-Gallon Efficiency Contest, the Franklin proved its unequalled efficiency and economy. Whitman’s marvelous record-breaking run from San Fran- cisco to New York over the heaviest mountain grades, across the hot sandy trackless desert, through Nebraska mud—in 15 days, 2 hours, 12 minutes—proved an ability, reliability, and endurance not hitherto believed possible in any motor-car. No other car in the world could have done these things. No other car has such qualities or such proofs. Don’t you want toread thestory of Whitman’s transcontinental dash, and his recent captare of the Chicago to New York record with the same car?
