$J. H. LYTTLE'S MOTOR GARAGE I AND AGENCY, MASTERTON. '

_•*-',•! With. an.\esrtfcrance from both Queen \t ,'and Chappei streets, "Lyttlo's Garage" ;-,""|fs one of the most central and conveniv;»ent in Master-ton. The proprietor, Mr. ";-:jjJ. H.^ Ly'ttle, has been in tho district •^fjjfor the past I fourteen years. and is a ', of considerable experience in tho "..■'jmotpring world. .• He holds several of <."yiitha' important agencies, including . 'the yy-i Dodge Bros.' car. This is a full-grown ;--Mear of 24 horse-power, R.A.C. raiting, .•«*• jwith a.four-cylinder motor, 3Jin by tyu\ ' and . stroke, and a wheel, base of '.-.ijllOin.'. It has a perfect stream-lino body ;s.;land wide doors '.lead to it-he high-backed ;-'" ■'. comforta-blo seats,, upholstered in solid ■j.;'; leather.' The back seat ia 47in wide and .^ tho froiit<42in. The tonneau is carpeted, ■ -. and fitted., with ;-nickel ; foot and robe ■,•'(" rails, both'l compartments _giving ample , ;'. leg-room. The. prospective purchaser ■■•■ J invariably walks'around, tho back of itho •; j machine, and is . struck with its solid ;.'..'■ appearance, the breadth of.the rear seat .*...•;■' springs, which are' self-lubricating, tho .',;: neat strong petrolUank, holding sixteen .v; gallons, and_ the crowned csmtre of the sis mudgnards, impartipg the impressions of ~*| a staunch and tidy, structure, built of f.i'i} pressed, eteel throug-Ijout. • • . .k| Aside from. the fact that tiio steering : ,\:-j wheel is large, and'; the'control levers >;-; within easy reach, the first thing to-be »>'| remarked is the cowl-board, which js '..sof metal,, and ■ carrying in front of the ■V 3 driver's • eye, the 60-mile speedometer, r- .Joil gauge, and electric! switches, the left S.;! hand end haying a small glove and tool ■..',»' box. ...'...-

• '■/) Tho • clutch-brako and accelerator :'- 5 pedals •. are convenieatlv. placed, botll ' .;» side doors swing open, and the electric \. i born is operated by push button on side ;.;■;} door. .. Tho car. holds the'; road well at ■•■/"j high speed. The nice relation of s-teer- .. i ing arms and front spring lay-out, com- '■...{ bined with the distribution of weight .•" i render it possible to handle the machine .;. ; ] comfortably at high speed. Lubrication s is taken care of by a combination force •;'.• I feed and splash system. The simple and .';* reliable leather-faced cone clutch, is • k used. One of the points in which con■S,' vention has been abandoned is, in the ,;..? three-speed gear-box, -where the.countor4 \.;j shaft remains stationary when the'car •:\ is running in direct drive. By this •.-] means the gear-DOx is absolutely silent. *\\ Tho rear axle is of the full floating ■;-; type, containing eight Timpkew roller .'.;■' bearings, and the driving shafts are used V* merely to transmit the power to the ;*': wheels; the entire weight of the car be- •,,; ing canied by the axle casing. ;;" Before purchasing a motor get a trial .•■j run in the Dodge, and you mil be con- - ! vinced of its merit. ■ Mr.' Lyttle's gar- ■;; age is well equipped and stocked with ■\\ tires and sundries, any work in the ■ -J nature of repair and renovating' is unA dertaken by experienced mechanics, and ; j the salesman has pleasurable-anticipa-. V-'j tions of a call 'from you about that''new ■■; car you need* . ■•
