FOR ALL
WHO INVEST NOW
Greatest Electrical Discovery
'. i: of the Age.
SAVES SO, I'll, ,655 A YEAR
Unusual Opportunity Now Offered the
Man Of Small Means to Become
Independently Rich.

Every great electrical invention has made
fortunes for Its original stockholders. The
American Bell Telephone company has paid
$500, 900 for each $500 invested in its stock at
its organization. Feople then laughed at the
idea of there ever being a general need for
the telephone. Twas hard to make investors
see the possibilities of the business. Those
who did among the worlds richest people.
Such chances not often offered the small
investor. The first such opportunity in a great
many years, that gives promise Of duplicating
the telephone in profits and universal demand
is the Electric Sgnagraph and semaphore.
Some of the best-known railroad experts in
America declare these instruments will prevent
railroad collisions They give absolute privacy
to party telephones, make it possible for train
to be stopped by the train dispatcher at any
point his division, and permit the sending
of private kilograms to any Of 100 or more
telegraph offices without the knowledge Of other
operators and without in any way interfering
with the regular telegraph circuit.
RAILROAD ADOPTS SYSTEM.
No extra wires are required. The cost is so
small and the advantages are so great that it
is predicted by some of the best experts in
America that all railroads will adopt the sys-
tenn. The Denver, Northwestern & Pacific has
already ordered the signagraph and Semaphore
for its entire lines The Independence Tele-
phone company association has offered Is cents
a month rental for the Signagraph, to be used
on party telephone lines. They have 1000, 900
telephones, most Of them party lines. One
S1gnagraph Is required for each telephone.
Only 3o0,O 900 instruments will earn the stock
! holders of the Electric Signagraph and Soma
phore company 100000 year.
There are 100000 miles of railroad in the
United States, less than 10 per cent Of which
is equipped with a signal service because Of
the inefficient systems heretofore used and their
great cost. If only one twentieth of this mile
age-less than per cent-were equipped with
the signagraph and semaphore the stockholders
would earn 5000, 600 a year-s5 per cent on the
present selling price Of the stock in addition
| to the revenue offered by the telephone COM
$4,000 LIVES LOST.
| More than Sc, 600, 600 were lost last year in
property destroyed In railroad collisions, and
! $1,000 persons were killed or injured. This
| amount would cover the entire cost Of the
Signagraph and Semaphore system over every
mile of railroad in the United States for two
years and make the horrors Of railroad collisions
unknown.
