TfN yVT P 66 W9 amd Fl&iiidbr "2(0" Agency goes to the E. EL WILSON AUTOMOBILE CO, The E. R. Wilson Automobile Co., No. 2016-2018 Harney Street, for several years, and still, distributors in western Iowa, Nebraska and South Dakota for Lexington Motor cars, have con tracted with the Studebaker Corporation to sell the E-M-F "30" and the Flanders "20" lines in Omaha and surrounding counties. The E. E. Wilson Co., desirous of securing a high grade popular priced car, spent several months investigating every such line on the market After rejecting all others after weeding out every other line because of its utter failure to qualify as to price and quality, finally se lected the E-M-F "SO" and Flanders "20" as superior to all other cars upon the market to day, price considered. The greatest value, dollar for dollar, that any manufacturer offers are these two cars with their unequalled records, of years' standing, for speed, durability and pull ing power. The unparalleled showing they have made in the severest contests, all over the world, defeating cars of twice their price, and the thousand E-M-F "SO" and Flanders "20" cars in daily service in Nebraska alone, put the $800 Flanders "20" and the $1,100 E-M-F "SO" far above the class of those gaudily painted and selling at $100 to $1,500. The famous line is manufactured by Studebaker the same Studebaker that for half a century has been the standard in the manufacture of carriages and wagons. The Studebaker Corporation is a $45,000,000 organisation the largest automobile concern in the entire world. That's the kind of a firm that guarantees every E-M-F "30" and Flanders "20" car that is sold. The Studebaker Corporation is such an enormous concern and their output so mighty that their purchasing power is unequalled by any other automobile factory on the continent Here lies the reason that the Flanders "20" at $300 and the E-M-F "30". at $1,100 are the equivalent respectively, of $1,200 and $1,500 cars. Omaha being a direct factory branch of this huge concern and carrying at all times, over $30,000 worth of parts for these two cars, owners have all the advantages that the factory could offer were it right here in Omaha. There is never a delay because some part must be secured from some far distant point This one concern makes the entire car and its various parts are listed and priced so that were a person to purchase only one part at a time the total cost would figure exactly the same as if the car were purchased right off the floor. This is an important consideration for prospective purchasers. To secure individual parts of some motor cars one must pay three times the price the same part costs when buying the car new. All these points and many more resolved the E. E, Wilson Automobile Company to become selling agents for these two famous cars the best, at their price, that the world offers.

POINTERS FOR MOTORISTS ON WASHING THE TIRES Washing tire and washing a car are two different proposition. ay the Michelln tire expert. Water alone abonld be used to wash tire and as little of It as neeeaaary. After every run the en velope should be wiped clean with a damp lapong or wall-wrung doth. A common mistake made by motorists la t mix kerosene with water. This may be advisable when washing the body of a cmr to icmov mud and dust from th Tarnish, but It should never be don when washing tire, because kerosene oats rubber. This fact can be readily proved by Immersing a small place of rub bar la kerosene and allowing It to soak. The rubber will soon swell and loss Its elasticity. The reason for this kj sp parent. Kerosene is rich m fatty proper ties which remain after the evaporation of the gaaea.
