HOW A MOTOR CAR PAID FOR ITSELF
Pittsburg Photographer Credits His With One Happy Home Restored. STOPS DOCTOR’S BILLS Restores Health and Coots No More Than the Convential Substitutes. An element which the prospective motorist seldom takes into account in h'S estimate of the benefits which his car will bring, is the inspiring influence which the car brings to the health and strength of himself and his family. Many a life has been prolonged by a doctor’s prescription that consisted solely of one motor car, taken in regular and frequent doses. More often than not, so doctors say, the car’s advent marks the loss of many a remunerative patient who, given this added incentive to regular, pleasant outings in the open air, has been entirely cured of some real or imaginary ailment. Especially is this benefit noted among persons of advancing age to whom a daily outing or two in the open air often proves a restorer and an agent of prolonged life and good health. “Pay As You Ride” Shafer of the Main Garage, local Maxwell distributors, is'fond of telling in this connection of a case that recently came under his own notice. “I happen to know a commercial photographer,” Mr. Shafer says, “whose wages are probably about $125 or $l5O a month. He is middleaged and has nobody dependent on him but his wife who was for many years an invalid. “After trying all sorts of treatment to restore her to health he bought a light, medium-priced automobile. The car was of no use in his business, except as a means of transportation to and from work, but he told me the other day that it had already paid for itself in both happiness and in cold cash. “Every pleasant evening this man and his wL'e have motored the streets and boulevards of their home city. Every holiday when weather has permitted, they have enjoyed a short tour in the country. He spends his annual vacation in the car and takes his wife with him. “Since he has had the car, he has not incurred one cent cf doctor’s bill. His wife is, for the first time in years, absolutely well and radiantly happy. As for the maintenance expense, he declares that it is easily covered by the reduction in carfare, theatres and other amusements which the car has displaced.”
