Possesses Every Desirable Feature
Low Price. You can buy this car without feeling that you are robbing
yourself or "going it too strong."
Low Upkeep Cot It costs so little to maintain (I'io cents per mile,
including depreciation) that upkeep is hardly a factor.
Simplicity. The engine is so simple that a child can readily learn to
operate it and take care of it. No need of chauffeur. All parts are
readily accessible.
Convenient Size. It is neither too big nor too small. , In emergency
cases where folks are to be entertained it can be converted into a4-pas-Renger
car in a jiffy, and carry the load easily. Small enough to be
handled with greatest ease and facility in traffic.
Reliability. This is a characteristic common to every Maxwell model
and proven by the experience of over 40,000 owners. Ask any of them.
Handsome Appearance. There is a distinctive elegance to this model.
Low, snaprjy, speed-suggesting lines a general air of; completeness.
If you're in the market for a car, this one deserves your attention.
You certainly can't find such features in any other car.
Prore to Yourtelf Point by Point. Send for the new 1911 Maxwell cata
logue and read it. Read oar book "How to Judge an Antomobile," and
apply the tests. Then read "The Maxwell in Business," and see how 1243
business firms employ it to advantage. A poscal will fetch . them. Just
write us "Mail Bookt."

"A Chang In rendition In th utom-i-bll

of the K. R. Wilson company, who aell the
IexlnKton.
"In many raae. even with aome of the
largest and atrongoat companlea. an agent
found It very difficult to get proper atten
tion or to receive any consideration for the
nggeatlona that hla experience led him to
offer. He was. In many cases, given to un-ritretan-J
that he was lucky to get any cars
at all from the manufacturer and that h
vlewa and judgment were worth little.
"Today, however, the mod progressive
rmcerns welcome and solicit the auggea
tlona of their a epresrntatlves."
One dav recently W. Alfnnxo Craig pro-pr-'Sed
to Mr. 8am Toreman of the Foreman
Oresham Autoniohlle company, dealers in
Ferd cars at Taducah. Ky., that if he
yoyl4 climb two flights of concrete and
atono atepa on the north aide of the Padttcah
court house, go through the court house
hall and down. the atepa on the south side
of the building and yard, he (Crl would
buy a Ford Model T automobile at $7H0 cash
and no questions asked.
Mr. Foreman tcrolt lilm up promptly and
made the trial, successfully motoring up
Ihe two flights of steps, through the court
lmu.e and down on the other side with
comparative eaae. Up the atepa the ma
chine held Ita course at an angle of forty
five, degree with as much ease as on a
lerel surface. Foreman sold Hie car.
"The Rudd Taxicab company of Brook
lyn. N. Y., hu Installed a fleet of Frank
lin taxicaba and one omnthus to cara fur
the thriving business of that livery," said
wuy raiin, umwha agent for the Franklin.
i ne installation of these cars attracted
'conaiderableattentlon, when it waa known
mmi mey nave air-colled motors and re
placed a squad or water-cooled cabs. The
water-cooled cars did not give satisfaction.
and, after troublesome exnerleno and
frtiltleae efforts to keep down the upkeep
coat, Mr. Rudd decided to adopt the
Franklin. s
"An average kept for Franklin taxlcabs
shows a tire ost of 2 cents per mile, which
la considered remarkable when tire Upkeep
costs for varloua typea of cabs are con
sidered. The Franklins are equipped with
tires 30x4 htchea front and rear.
"The elimination of a water cooling ays-
urn makes light weight possible and Is
conducive to the long life of the tlrea
and car."
