Purely this : That for hill-climbing, for long-distance running, for speed, and for reliability the NEW HUDSON is easily first and always first. Here are the prices at which we sell this famous Motor Cycle : . 2f»h.p. New Hudson, free engine, three-speed gear .. .. £65. New Hudson, free engine, three-speed gear .. .. £77. In New Zealand, where steep hills are frequent, the advantage of a high gear for le%-el places, a medium gear for easy climbs, and a low gear for stiff climbs must be apparent. The NEW HUDSON provides all tire ■, together with a free engine clutch, enabling you to start anywhere from a standing position. Write or call, and we'll tell you a lot of other advantages the NEW HUDSON has. 183 GEORGE STREET, DUNEDIN. . '.-:;. ;>'-.■..
