A PAITENCE KEY
KEEPS SPEED TEMPTATION FBOM NEW MOTORISTS A device to keep new motorists out Of temptation is now being adopted by one of the leading firms of English car-makers. All new cars should be driven slowly for the first 500 miles, but few owners have tLe necessary patience to follow this rule. New cars delivered by this firm have a special washer in the iniet pipe limiting its aperture so that the engine cannot develop more power than is required for a speed of 25 miles an hour. The washer can only be removed by a special key. Some owners have charge of the key, but others leave it with the firm or a local agent and collect it after the car has done its first 500 miles.
