SIGNS OF REVOLT There are certain mechanical features whose suc- cessful use for two or more years by leading of cars have made them Standard—admittedly the SBEST. Palmer-Singer cars have them ALL—no one other make—at any price—has them all. | makes FACTORY IN NEW YORK CITY LICENSED UNDER SELDEN PATENT GUARANTEED FOR ONE YEAR Miss Cue £227 @© (UE.rew book about Miss Cue, containing six beautiful illustrations of Miss Cue at @ ditiards and pool, will be sent tree, e@ paid, to anyone interested in Billi Miss Cue is shown making shots which have never before been attempted by any billiard e player, and the series of pictures is interest- .g and unique.

Lire Puptisuixc Company. Gentlemen ;—I have read your “Im- proper Number’ of Lire, dated Febru- ary 24. It docs.not interest me very much, nor does it trouble me, though I notice by your March 10 issue that you have lost. some subscribers. I am sorry for this, and the only way I can account for the publication of the “Improper Num- ber’’ is that you desire to enlighten over-sensitive people and give them a true target to fire at. If this is your purpose I say “God speed "’ the course. Certain persons think that the robes of bishops and clergymen make the latter too sacred for illustration or for car- YarMoutn Six-Sixty—6 cylinder, 60 H. P. Sixty-five miles an hour, $3,500 The performance of a car depends on the excellence of its mechanical features. In per- formance Palmer-Singer cars are, fast, power- ful, silent, strong, durable and economical in a degree which you cannot find elsewhere, in combination, in any other cars made in this country to-day. Palmer-Singer owners who previously drove foreign cars do not except foreign makes in speaking of Palmer-Singer superiority. We wish you could compare the actual performance in your own hands of the Palmer-Singer Six-Sixty, for instance, and ALL other cars at the same or higher prices. As that is, of course, im- possible, why don’t you compare their me- chanical features side by side? Remember, on these de- pend per- formance. ‘SINGER MFG. CO. 1620 Broadway, ‘New York City Please send technical de- scription of your cars to Address ... Our Six-Sixty has a speed of over 65 miles an hour. It has a 127-inch wheel-base, a six- cylinder, 60 H. P. motor, a four speed and reverse selective type transmission, multiple disc clutch, Imported Ball Bearings through- out, hand forged I-Beam, front axles, Bosch magneto—four brakes, internal expanding and equalized—all on rear wheels. Its price is $3,500. These are a few of its salient fea- tures—and they have ALL been in use in Palmer-Singer cars for over two years. The Palmer-Singer Three-Jet Multiple Spray Carburetor is one of several exclusive features. It is perfectly simple, but with one adjust- ment, gives much added power and con- sumes less gasoline to the mile than any other carburetor on the market. It gives the same mixture at all speeds.

March 6, 1910. Dear Lire: Do let up on your anti-vivisection crusade, for it does no good, and it is a small matter, take it in comparison with other vital matters, Change your bat- teries so that they may fire at those who ship fowls to market! Just now there is no law that is visible covering the health and comfort of chickens, ducks and turkeys on their way to their fate. Cattle, horses, hogs, are provided for, and ride in as much comfort as a tramp, for instance. You know about their stopping for food and water. But the poor chickens—how they are jammed into low coops, too small for any save the least in size to stand in, and the coop is as full ag it can be crowded; then these are piled many feet high in freight and express cars for hours at a time, and only those fowls on the outside layers can have but the least chance to breathe. It is all bad enough in mild weather, but in summer and winter it is (Continued on page 592) comicbooks.com
