Motor Troubles 
S OMEBODY has said 
that the worst of your 
motor troubles is get¬ 
ting the car! 
How can you choose a car 
suited to your pocketbook 
and personality, at the same 
time being sure that you will 
be free from needless run¬ 
ning expense and up-keep? 
One way is to read the 
Motor Number 
of this magazine. See the new¬ 
est styles of car, tested types of 
equipment and read a hundred 
and one suggestions for economy 
in maintenance. This number 
alone may save you hundreds, 
even thousands of dollars. It 
will not only help you in buying 
and running your car, but will con¬ 
tain, as usual, dozens of valuable 
suggestions about every side of 
home-making. You may read in 
simple, understandable language 
the practical ways to make your 
home cosier, more convenient, 
more comfortable and practical. 
You need this August number. 
You will find it an excellent ex¬ 
ample of what is offered each 
forthcoming month. 
A small investment of $3 for a 
yearly subscription (twelve ex¬ 
ceptional numbers) may save you 
$300, or even $3,000 or more. 
Because of House & Garden’s 
many valuable suggestions on 
building, which are practical; on 
gardening, which please, and on 
decorating and furnishing, which
