SI EEEES: Only Two (2) Moving Parts to Each Cylinder So this Economical Car is mighty nearly Trouble-Proof HE astonishing facts that you'll read below are backed up by a five-year record. This record is studded with hundreds of stories—owners' stories—that you'd hardly be- lieve except at first hand. Stories that prove —that Atlas owners are almost free from re- pair bills —that Atlas depreciation is only 5 per cent. ayear —that it takes a regular smash-up to even worry an Atlas Motor Car. Your mind will be glad to open up and seek proof as soon as you've read these facts below. The Atlas motor is the first and only really perfect, really practical two-cycle engine. The firsttoactnally conquer all former two-cycle faults, including waste of gas and incomplete lubri- cation, Note the Vast Differences Compare all tricky, trouble-inviting four-cycle motors with this guileless, tranquil two-cycle Atlas. Every four-cycle motor has from 25 to 50 frail, delicate, highly nervous mov- ing parts to each cylinder. Each moving part with its own friction—its own wear and tear— its own chances for trouble, for delays, for expense. The Atlas motor has only fwo (2) moving parts to each cylinder. No valves! Merely the pistons, the piston rods and the crank shaft. Yet this refreshingly simple motor does more work, beller work, cheaper work than any same-size four-cycle motor. Compare again— The Atlas motor gives a power-impulse to every piston stroke. The four-cycle motor gives a power-impulse only to every second stroke. Compare again— Except in costly six-cylinder motors of the For seven passengers—¥0-H. P., ¢cylinder Motor—128-inch wheel base—Full Floating type rear axle.

Added Power—Lessened Cost The Atlas motor pours forthan even, unbroken, unwavering power-flow that is smooth, sleek, silent and almost devoid of vibration. Money cannot buy more pleasing power. One result of these amazing advantages is —that the Atlas motor delivers from 60 per cent. to 75 percent. more actual power, cylinder for cylinder, than any four-cycle engine that can ever be made, Yet, with its few moving parts, its lessened weight, its lack of vibration, its freedom from repairs, this engine costs, of course, less to build—less to buy—less to main- tain, And the car itself is, in every detail, worthy of its wonderful engine. Note the specifications under the picture. See what a superb car this really is. And, mind you, the five-year-old Atlas cars are running yet—and running strong. You owe it to yourself to know the truth—the whole truth—about this, the only perfect two-cycle engine. So send for the Atlas Book—send for it foday.

I say to you, un- married men, “ Beware!” Be not en- snared ‘by the arts of such as these. Women have many noble duties to per- form; duties so honorable that their do- ing hath, to them, brought great renown; hath made men look to them for inspira- tion, Would you have them trade these duties for the ballot? Would you have the club displace the home? Would you have the desire for office displace the de- sire for children? These are but few of all the evils the ballot would bring to those whom now we reverence because of their virtues—only a few of the evils possessed by the suffragettes. There- fore, as you value your future home, look not to them for wives. Tost B. Storr. Life’s Suffragette Contest (Concluded from page 16) Timorously Turning Traitor. Unconsciously Unsexing Universe.

The evil they do is oft o’erlooked, because of their sex; the good exaggerated beyond measure. Let it not be so with these.
