LIGHT CARS SAVE UUNNING EXPENSES. The most important development in tho motoring industry for a decade is tho introduction of tho light-weight car. Tho light-weight car, wliilo as strong structurally as the older and heavier automobiles, has several points of advantage over tho heavy car. Its first cost is considerably less, and its reduced weight means that a lower engine-power will do equally elhcicnt work. Lower engine-power means less petrol expenditure, and tho lightweight moderatc-onsincd ear deals very gently with lyres. First cost and running cost are both reduced. Wo nro in the happv position of having several of tho best 'types of light cars, the latest products of Continental, English, and American manufacturers, in stock ready for immediate delivorv. There is the "haiulramo Unmber," 11-15 h.p. four-seater, catalogued at .£285 in London, the t.wo-scntor 11-15 h.p. "Kumber," catalogued at .£270, the 10-15 h.p. three-sealer "Clomoiit-Hny-ard" (French Talbot), with London-made body, catalogued at £S\ 10s., and the 8-12 h p' two-sealer "Clement-Bayard," catalogued at .EISG. To the catalogued price of these English and French ears.we add the cost of importation, a fair and straightforward method of price assessment.
