A FAITHFUL RECORD OF CONSISTENT PERFORMANCES. In connection with advertising the "Matchless" Motor Cycles, there is no need to go into ecstacies over what they might have done, nor to fire off statistics, nor to recount their wonderful performances in trials they did not win; in short, to make something out of nothing. The "Matchless" is always on the job. Every mail brings news of further successes. During the first week of last month the "Matchless" team (all h.p.) competed in the Circuit de l'Eure, the greatest Continental road race of the year. Just when they appeared to have matters their own way, the puncture liend assailed two out of the three riders, but the third man then took up the running-, and came home about six miles ahead of auvoue else; speed, 45] m.p.h.; time, 3 hours 58 miuUt Simultaneously with the above event, the '•Matchless" won the Woohvich Motor Club's trial over au exceptionally arduous course. Result: Matchless 7 li.n. side cars, first, second, and third, ami special award for the team. These are just plain and unembeilished statements of good work well done on soundly constructed dependable machines. Consider what is proven by the winning of a great road race and a severe road trial on the same make of machine, in competition with the foremost riders of the day.
