T. Larned. American Kiplings HE recent contest between Gertrude Atherton and the London Times as to ability of gathering local color in the locus has prompted an inquiry into the habits of American story-tellers. The ex- les of Stevenson, te Loti and Jo- seph Conrad are found to be followed by many young writers. Naturally, writers of descriptive articles, muck raking or other- wise, have to wander. The latest of this breed is the Rev. Alexander Irvine, whom Light Runabout $1800 Light Tour: What backs the Franklin claim to first place among American motor- cars? Franklin principles and the Franklin record. High power and light weight is the Franklin foundation principle: Power obtained not from a big heavy engine re- quiring heavy water-apparatus to cool it, and a heavy frame to support it; but from a thoroughly-refined light-weight engine which transforms the largest pos- sible proportion of its heat into actual working-force, and in a machine whose perfect strength comes not from mere bulk, weight and antiquated ¢‘be-on-the- safe-side’’ guess-work construction; but from absolutely the highest-grade material and workmanship known in motor-car building, tested and calculated with scientific accuracy and positively known effect. Into every Franklin model is built the net ability of a powerful, perfectly-air- cooled, multi-cylinder motor and the superlatively strong, light-weight, non- jarring, Franklin construction. Full, con- stant, driving energy always at the rear wheels; free from the handicap of unscien- tific, useless, dangerous, money-wasting weight. But with the safety and com- fortable riding-quality that make power usable and worth having. ‘This high-pow er -and-light-weight prin- ciple has developed Franklins from the first little 7 horse-power runabout of 1902 into the splendid, luxurious, powerful four- and six-cylinder types of to-day. It won and still holds the world’s efficiency record, the world’s long-distance touring and endurance records, and the Chicago- to-New York Record. It has pushed the value of Franklin sales in five years up to second among all American motor- cars, And its daily results in Franklin models make other touring-car standards look tame by comparison. If you are open to conviction, see a Franklin dealer, and write for the book. H. H. FRANKLIN MFG, co., Member Association Licensed Automobi Prices f. 0. b.
