Of course, the average buyer does not want a car that will run 90 miles an hour; but the fact that . any car can continue running at such an enormous speed as to cover over a thousand miles in 12 hours proves that that car absolutely must be perfect 'in every respect to stand the terrific strain, end the Sunbeam Company, in all their speed teste, uee only standard engines—thus the man who buys a SUN r BEAM knowe that he is buying a car with tho most perfect engine in the world.
