Maxwell motor cars have
demountable rims and the
sam,, e3 size tires on both
front and rear wheels.
• 1
REMEMBER these important features, because
they are not to be found on stele of the lighter ears.
Maxwell cars have 3 a in,. tires all around. This is a
° generous size. The tires are not overtaxed. They last
longer and make riding easier:
Tires of one size ,mean that you have to carry only.
one size casing and one size tube.
Demountable rims, of course, are recognized as the
best They are on all good cars: Don't buy any car
without demountable_ rims. If you do, you'll regret it.
These 'two features= -along with the other complete
and up-to-date equipment; the economy and proved
endurance of the Maxwell, make it the greatest auto-
mobile value in the world today.

THE OTHER FELLOW'S JOB
The, man behind the harroyv with his
jersey, full of dirt, •
Looks with ever-growing envy at 'the

But the man behind the counter feels

And'would swap his polished scissors
• for the farmer's rust'spade.

PHONE . 66 FOR ° PROMPT D LIVERY
In the night the sleepy doctor hears the
• clanging Of the phone,
And, "I wish I were a lawyer, ,' is his
aggravated moan. •
But the lawyer in ' his nightie ,hears the
doctor's car go pasf, -
And he says, "That lucky doctor Must
be makifig money fast.".
The man upon the vessel sees the coast-
line slowly dwarf, And he longs for terra firma with the
man upon the wharf;
While, the tither marks the vessel, mov-
ing out alone and free,
And he longs for boundless freedom with
the man upon the Sea. •
The little boy in rompers thinks his
• daddy first in grace,
And ire wishes he were grown• up with
•' . some. whiskers on his face;
But, his daddy feels the burden of the
mortgage ..nd the debts,
•And°wishes he were Willie in his baby,
pantalets. • .
The youngenan sees his 'sister and her

And -he says, "If I were -Mater I could
save a lot of dough."
,Bat the young•girl sees her brother with
his volatile finance;
And she longs. to be, the owner of the

Says: the peasant_ in his, cottage, "What
a grand and happy thing
To have the mighty sceptre, and the

Yet I have heard it whispered that' the

Would rather be the peasant with .a spirit
of his own.
So if your let is irksome, you: can set
