piston area and burn no more gasoline than four large cylinders.Mr. K. C. Field, sales manager of the Pacific Car company, explained this very clearly to a buyer yesterday. The reason is very simple. As long as there are fourmat can possiDiy produce continuous power. Anything more than six will do bo, of course, but there la no necessity of adding more cylinders than are needed, and the larger number of cylinders is not commercially practicable.CHALMERS AND OVERLAND Union Motor Car Co.808-810 A St.Jameson Won the Prize—Oh, Yes—Sure He Won ItZZ. ZZ. Jimeson, Northwest agent for the Harley Davisonmotorcycle, is deeply, terribly peeved.Not only has he been made thebutt of a joke that everyone else but himself can appreciate, but he declares that the two-wheeled speed-cart that he handles for livelihood has been wilfully, designedly Insulted. Jameson didn’t use these words exactly, but they sound better than what he didsay.In the recent endurance run to Hoquiam, Jameson rode a 1914 Harley-Davidsori. The roads were rutty and many riders were so lame from the constant jolting of their machines that they were hardly able to walk after the ride was over. Jameson Immediately strutted proudly about,showing how little fatigued he was, and telling of the comfort of riding on the Harley-Davidson full floating seat, featured on the 1914 models.“And then it happened.’9Jameson made a perfect Bcore. He went proudly around to see the judges a few days later, and was given his prise—a queerly shaped little package of considerable** weight.He opened the package. It contained a bottle of delicately tinted liquid. Jameson read the label. It had many pretty phrases on It, but most prominent of all were the words, “Horse Liniment”“Well, If that certainly ain’t a mean trick,” caustically remarked the nettled agent. “They must have thought I was riding donkey instead of a ’14 Harley with a full floating seat.”JACKSON AUTOMOBILE CO1212 So.
