The Latest Non-Skid.
This is said to be a sure preventive of anyevil experiences. The Guthrie Non-skid is its name. The illustration depicts a non-skid device which is shortly to be placed on the market. As shown, double curb chains are employed, and placed across the tyre, these being fixed with spring hooks to an endless curb chain round the edge of the tyre tread. The patentee claims that not only wilt the idea prevent skidding, but that punctures are well nigh impossible, and that the chains act as a general protection to the tyre. Tests carried out over greasy roads have given highly satisfactory results. The completely fitted cover presents a pleasing appearance to the eye, and many are looking forward to the results of extended tests of the device, when further information will be given -respecting it.
