IMPROVEMENTS IN MOTOR CARS. AT LAST we are in * po«.»on to offer to tbe public just what ii wanted m motor car* required f»r everyday use. Tbtr fonr-cylinder engine fitted to a motor car is admitted t>y all engineers and motorists to gire the beat result*. Owing to tbe high prices in tbe past for the be»t makes of four-cylin»ler cam, many doctors, farmers and other n.*ers are driving cars with single and twin-cylinder engines, which at the best are- noisy, and a very poor substitute for the four-cylin-der system. Tbe new 1908 10-12 b.p. four-cylinder Humber, giving 17 h.p. R. A-Ci" rating, marks ■* step forward in motor-car construction. The new Hnm- . - .« . - . • ,_ -i i for single-cylinder cars. On testing the •ample Humber on the flat and hills, we decided to cancel by cable all our orders for one and two cylinder cars. We now give notice that in future w» will only •lock four-cylinder care. Tbe new Humber » fully guaranteed. Tbe improvements are the double ignition by magneto, and accumulators. Tbe magneto generates the electricity to explode the charge of petrol gas in the engines, and never requires re-charging, as in the ca.«e of tbe out-of-date accumulator tyMem. All motorists living in tbe country must havo magnetoe to prevent being stuck vp owing ti> tbe accumulators foiling. The g.i;j change speed is a decided improvement. and can be operated by a boy or tfirl with tbe greatest tanm. The mechanktt lubricator is a safeguard at;ain«l any trouble on tbe road doe to over heat injt bearing* ranged by the failure of the i.il system. The new 10 12 h.p. Humber can b* »U[.|-lKd fitted with tw<>««jt«T Ixmlw. a!*«» a special model for doctors, with cine hood, wind shield, etc. The public ar> invited to in«pect the sample Humber. Trial run* are fre-ly g ; v«n to .ill th"«e Adam*. I.imit<nl, iota agents f..r N'ew Zealand. ADAMS LIMITED, Stafford Street: Tiroaru.
