DANGER SIGNALS

An ingenious American has invented a device to prevent such motoring

accidents as arise from over-speeding. He describes his contrivance as

follows:

"While the car is running fifteen miles an hour a white bulb shows on

the radiator, at twenty-five miles a green bulb appears, at forty a red

bulb, and, when the driver begins to bat 'em out around sixty per, a

music-box under the seat begins to play 'Nearer, My God, to Thee.'"
