MOTOR CAR EXHAUSTS.

DANGER! PROM CARBON MONOXIDE. Automobilists cannot- be too careful about always, opening the doors or windows of garages before starting the engine, Dr. W. P. Yant, of the U.S. Bureau of Mines, told members of the American Chemical Society at Washington recently. Dr. Yant lias conducted experiments on the amount of deadly carbon monoxide gas liberated by automobile engines when idling in garages. a He reported that in a closed garage of 1000 cubic feet capacity, or 10 by lf> feet, the average motor engine would produce enough carbon monoxide in eight to ten minutes to cause death to any person in the garage. Considermg the variability of engine. performance and of personal susceptibility to the gas, Dr. Yant said: “There seems to be no limit of time during which the engine may be run in a closed private garage with safety the doors should he opened, even if the engine is to be run only long enough to take the car out, for a few unheeded minutes spent in examining the gasoline tank may be disastrous. Even allowing for ventilation at the rate of cue change of air in the garage in an hour, an idling engine, can produce a .ratal concentration of carbon monoxide in seven minutes. All lengthy tests should be made in the open air/ 3

A Buller farmer was driving home from town. He had more than enough to drink, and disaster overtook hrm on the road. He drove the wheel of the gig on to the other side of the road ancl the vehicle overturned. The farmer just managed to jump clear. A neighbour arrived on the scene as the unfortunate man was righting matters, and at once tendered his sympathy. “Man. ye’ve had a mighty narrow escape. Ye can onlv thank Providence that ye werena killed.” “Ave ” said the other; “but ye maun allco’l wis bin’ o’ nimbi O' masel’.” WILL QC/ICKLY PLY.
