You’ve Tried the Rest Now Try the Best SAVAGE TIRES AND TUBES Direct from factory to you—a new method of selling tires that puts tfie middleman's profit in your pocket. Savage Tires are being sold only through our own factory branches and factory distributors. The big economies due to direct selling, elimination of bad credits and simplified bookkeeping enable us to reduce prices to a point never before reached with high-grade tires.-' Lowest net cash prices—much lower than were possible under the old method of selling—the same to everyone everywhere. • But in the case of Savage Tires low prices do not mean low quality. Savage Tires are made of the best materials that can be bought, in the most careful and workmanlike manner in a factory whose motto is ( QUALITY FIRST, LAST AND ALWAYS If a blow-out were to occur;- because of great tensile" strength or toughness and the absence of all grain troubles, the tube will not split. A blow-out makes only a small hole, which means an easy, quick, economical repair. The great tensile strength of the Savage Grafinite Tube is well shown by a test made a few months ago. In thistest, the Savage Tube pulled a 26,000-pound street car up a 1% per cent, grade. When the steam engine that furnished the power stopped, the resiliency of the tube pulled the car up to the engine. , Savage Grafinite Tubes, like Savage Tires, are sold direct to the consumer through our own branch stores and distributors. You get the dealer’s profit and pay lowest cash price for ■ the highest grade of goods. Prices are the same everywhere.
