A LIFETIME CAB.

Mr. John W. Bate, the great efficiency engineer, has, in designing the "Mitchell " aimed at a lifetime ear.rTwo Bate-built Mitchells, still in good condition, have run over 200,000 miles apiece. Seven of them are known to have averaged over 175,000 miles apiece, or more than 30 years' ordinary service. ■ So far as we know, no other car ever built has approached those endurance records. Those records, however, were made by Mitchell, built under former standards of 50 per oent. over-strength. That was the standard Mr. Bate adopted years ago. It made him, at that time, seem an extremist. Other engineers argued that in ordinary driving no such margin of safety was necessary. But that overstrength is what made Mitchell Cars render their marvellous service. But three years ago Mr. Bate spent a year in Europe. Tliero he found a standard, amongst foremost engineers, of 100 per cent, ovcr-etrongth. That standard was based on European roads. It would not mean '.hat muoh margin here. But it suggested to Mr. Bate the eame double strength, based on less fsivourablo conditions. Since then Mr. Bate has constantly worked to double our margins of safety. He has worn out fifty care in learning the needed strength. Ho has invented tests to prove that every vital part has twice tho strength required. This year, for the first time, we announce that Mitchells in all important parts have 100. per cent, over-etrength. That is, they are built to twice the strength standards of the Mitchells which made those records. Over U0 parts aro built of toughened steel. All parts which got a major strain aro built of Chrome-Vanadium, and built over-size. Axles, gears, steering and driving parts aro constantly iested for this doublo strength. Tho factory rinalyse all stools to ensure it, and parts are subjected to tremendous factory tests. Call and inspect: the latest 5 and 7passengor Models at INULIS BROS.
