MODEL  E 
7  Passenger  Touring 
Rd°  EIGHT  CYLINDER  Tourin° 
Will  more  than  meet  the  rigorous  requirements 
of  Farm  Service,  and  in  addition  give  a  riding 
luxury  and  coach  style  surpassed  by  no  foreign  car 
The  new  Model  E  is  offered  to  the  public  after  months 
of  the  roughest  handling,  the  trials  extending  from  the 
hilly  coal  regions  of  Pennsylvania  to  the  blizzard-swept 
mountain  passes  of  Colorado.  It  has  conquered  every 
variety  of  road-way  and  extreme  of  climate,  under  the 
fault-hunting  eyes  of  our  engineer  corps. 
In  congested  city  traffic  the  King  Eight  will  creep 
along  in  “high,"  and,  when  an  opening  comes  dart  away 
with  locomotive  speed  at  the  movement  of  a  finger. 
Sudden  hills  are  taken  with  a  hum  instead  of  a  throb  and 
with  scarcely  ever  a  change  of  gears.  Simplicity  and  ease 
of  operation  make  it  the  ideal  car  for  women  who  drive, 
and  its  extreme  economy  in  fuel,  oil  and  tires  is  only 
another  proof  of  high  engine  efficiency. 
Will  you  be  content  with  less  than  a  King? 
Sedan  “All-  Weather ”  Car,  $ 1900 . 
PIONEER  of  its  class,  the  King  occupies  the  unique  posi¬ 
tion  of  being  purchased  “in  spite  of’  its  moderate  price, 
as  well  as  because  of  it. 
Those  who  would  willingly  pay  more  than  is  asked  for 
the  King  find  the  necessity  gone  when  confronted  with 
this  car’s  remarkable  performance  and  luxury. 
“Challenger”  Model  E  embodies  improvements  and 
refinements  in  eight  cylinder  construction  which  could  be 
offered  only  by  a  Company  that  has  had  its  “Eights"  in 
operation  all  over  America  and  in  thirty  foreign  lands  for 
over  a  year,  there  being  more  King  eight  cylinder  cars  in 
owners'  hands  than  any  other  make  save  one.  Aluminum 
pistons  of  special  King  design,  the  latest  advance  in  auto¬ 
mobile  engineering,  are  a  feature  of  this  car.  They  increase 
engine  power  and  resist  carbon.
