EXIT "PEA SOUPERS."

Fog-lifting Device.

A novel method of dispelling fog has been discovered in London, according to the claim of an in- ventor who has utilised hot air.

An attachment to the exhaust projects hot air in front of cars, and the rising current of air lifts the fog about 10 feet, allowing the driver to see under it.

The device has never been tried In opposition to a regular pea souper," so that its inventor's claim still remains to be justified."
