As the last half century has been the age of railways, the next is to be the age of roads. The railway represents the childhood, or at most the adolescence-of-transportation, which will discover its full powers in the development of the motor vehicle. Eren within the next five years the number of these is to be vastly increased, from 750,000 in the United Kingdom to 2,000,000, in spite of taxation and the price of petrol. Obviously there must be more roads and better ronds, or the things will not have room to move.

It is not a question of mechanical pos sibility. The point is the control and practical use of streams of motor traffic at such speed. The railway protects its drivers and its passengers by elaborate systems of

What protection is to be offered on a high-sped motor track carrying a constant stream, of separate vehicles not all of the same standard of efficiency, not all driven by men of equal competence?

A JUNNY GUN.

It is a funny gin, "because it fires out of both enda This gun is actually being used in America. It may sound" weird to talk of a gun that fires out of both ends, but in this weapon, such a feat is achieved. The cartridge for this gun has at one end of it the projectile; at the other end a cylinder of sand. The cartridge is put into the centre of the gun instead of into the end, as it gen- erally is. On the ignition of the charge, its, explosion blows the projectile out of one end and the sand out of the other. The proportion of the sand is so regulat ed that the explosive force is equally divided in both directions, and conse quently there is no recoil either way, and no strain is brought upon whatever is holding the gun.
