Penrose's Drapery Establishment. MOTOR CARS. AT LAST we are in a position to offer motor car* required for eveiy-day use. The four-cylinder engine fitted to a motor car is admitted by all engineers and motorists .to give the best result*. Owing to the high prices in tlie past for the he*t makes of four-cylinder cars, many doctors, farmers and other users are driviug cars with single and twin-cylinder engines, which at the best are noisy, and a verv poor substitute for the four-cylin-dcr system. The new 1908 10 12 h.p. four-cylinder Dumber, giving 17 h.p. 11. A.V. rating, marks a *lcp forward in motorcar coustrucli'ui. The new Humber is sold at a price previously charged for single-cylinder cars. On testing thi» sample Humber «n the flat and l'it' y » *'« decided to cancel by cable all our orders for one and two cylinder cars. Wo now give notice that in future we will only stock four-cylinder car*. Tlk* new Number is fully guaranteed. The improvements are the double iguitiou by magneto, and accumulators. The magneto p-ufates the electricity to explode- the charts of petrol gas in the engines, and never requires re-charging, as iu the case of Uic nut-of-da;o accumulator system. All motorists living in the country must bate magnetos to prevent being stuck i»p owing t<> tbe accumulators failing. Th» gave change speed is a decided improvement, and can be o]«ralcd by a boy or Cirl with tie* greatest <■*.«». The mcehau-h-il lubricator is a safeguard against but ti.iuhle on tli* r»ad due to over heating l^arings rausetl by (he failure of Ihe oil »y>tem. The new" 10-12 h.p. Huml>er can K- *nppii<d fitted with two seiNr b"die», a!«<» a special model for doctors, with cit«e hood, wind shield, etc. The ptiblie ai • invited t«> inspect t!w* sample- 11 umber.
