made fortunes for its original stock
holders. The American Bell Telephone
Company has paid 100000 for each
500 invested in its stock at it's or
ganization. People then laughed at the
idea of there ever being a general need
for the telephone 1t was hard to make
investors see the possibilities of the
business. Those who did are among the
worlds richest people.
Such chances are not often offered
the small investor. The first such op-
p0rtunity in a great many years, that
gives every promise of duplicating he
telephone in profits and universal de-
mand is the Electric Signagraph and
Semaphorc.
Some of the best-known railroad ex-
perts in America declare these instru-
mcnts will prevent railroad collisions.
They give absolute privacy to party
telephones make it possible for a train
to be stopped by the train dispatcher at
any point on his division, and permit
the sending of private kilograms to any
one of 100 or more telegraph offices
without the knowledge of other opera
tors and without in any way interfer
ing 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 system. The
Denver, Northwestern and Pacific has
already ordered the Signagraph and
SemaphOre for it's entire lines. The
Independent Telephone Company As
scciation has offered % cents a month
rental for the Signagraph, to be used
on party telephone lines. They have
100000 telephones, most of them on
party lines. One Signagraph is re-
quired for each telephone. Only 300,-
coo instruments will earn the stock
holders of the Electric SignagraDh and
SemaphOre Company 100000 a year.
There are 100000 miles of railroad
in the United States, less Jhan 10 per
cent Of which is equipped with sig
| nal service because of the inefficient
| systems heretofore used and their great
cost. If only one-twentieth of this
mileage-less than per cent-were
| equipped with the Signagraph and
| Semaphore the stockholders would earn
| 100000 years. per cent on the
| present selling price of the stock in
| addition to the revenue offered by the
| telephone company.
10000 LIVES LOST.
More than S900O.0C0 were lost last
year in property destroyed in railroad
collisions, and $4,000 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.
Experts admit the necessity for these
| instruments. Far-Sighted investors are
