Increasing growth of tlio hair.
Letters of praise are continually
coining In from nearly all parts of

renewed the growth of hair In
•cues that were considered abso
lutely hopeless.
A lady from Brooklyn writes:
"After a sbert trial my hair stopped
falling, and I now have a lovely bead
of hair, T«ry heavy and over one and
a quarter ytrd* long."
Dandcrine stimulates the scalp,
makes it healthy and keeps it ao.

Up to the Minute Arc Our
AUTOMOBILES

Chalmers-Detroit “30”
TEN YEARS AGO we would have sold you a steam automobile with all its trou
bles, annoyances, its gasoline under high air pressure and a red hot fire burning under
you in summer and a volume of white steam floating from under to scare country
horses in winter; the chances of having all your eyebrows and whiskers, if you had
any, singed off when you fired up in the m oming, and great luck if the thing didn’t
burn up or blow up while you wore taking a pleasure ride. But, remember, that was
ten years ago. We don’t sell steamers now.
EIGHT YEARS AGO we would have sold you a single cylinder automobile, very
good in its day and a good old plugger yet, but we are talking about automobiles.
SIX YEARS AGO we would havo sold you a two cylinder with a chain drive with
all of its noise and grease; its engine under the body and its nothing under tho hood.
One of our customers insisted for some tlmo that his engine was under the hood, but
not so, it was a handsome hood with nothing under it. Hoeverw, up-t-date at that
time, but remember two cylinders were all right six years ago.
FOUR YEARS AGO wo would have sold you a heavy four cylinder automobile, too_
heavy for its power, too heavy for its tires; depending entirely on dry cells for igni
tion; however the best of its kind at that time and fairly satisfactory, and the same
as many dealers are offering as up-to-date now.
TV/O YEARS AGO we would havo sold you a four cylinder, each cast separately
with five hearing crank shaft; just aboutwhat the majority of American manufactu
rers are offering as up-to-date now, but
OUR UP-TO-THE-MINUTE AUTOMOBILE is tho Chalmers-Detroit 30-horse
power light car with great power for its weight with a record on November. 3, at
Rochester, N. Y., (sworn to) of 24 1-2 miles to the gallon of gasoline for 200 miles.
A four cylinder automobile with tho cylinders cast in one and a two-bearing crank
shaft, just exactly tho same as December 10th issue of Motor Age will tell you, that
(90) ninety per cent of tho light cars shown at the great European Automobile Show
just closed at the Grand Palace in Paris, were constructed, so do not be misled by
what the uninformed may say about the cylinders cast in one and the two-bearing
crank shaft. Just rest assured that when (90) ninety per cent of the European man
ufacturers adopt it or 9 out of 10 of their light cars are constructed in this way, it’s
right and proper, and there is no better and you can well afford to ignore any free
advice you may get to tho contrary. j
Tho 25-milo record on our Macon mile trade, 28 minutes and 3 seconds;
is the work of this samo Ohalmors-Detroit 30.
THE SECOND 1909 MODEL CHALMERS-DETROIT 30 THE FACTORY
FINISHED,
After being run 6,000 miles in the Middle West, was on August 9th, put on a
double daily run from Detroit to Pontiac, Michigan, and return, a total distance of
208 miles a day, every four days making 832 miles, which about equals the distance
from Macon to Detroit. This car continued to make 832 miles ovory four days fo,
a period of 100 days; 25 of the 832-milc trips without being laid up a single day
for repairs, finishing its 20,800 miles on Nov. 17th, following tho exact schedule set
out in tho beginning. This is a world’s record and should satisfy the most exact
ing as to the durability and reliability of the “Ohalmers 30.”
Wo have a demonstrating car waiting, so don’t take our word for it, but let
ns show you its superiority.
