The New Motive Power The problem of motive power has much to do with manufacturing and commerce in this age The steam engine so far is the principal power It being more generally used than any other By its use the commerce of the world has grown to enormous proportions yet the steam engine depends upon the consumption of coal ajmost entirely making at all times a very expensive affair The demands for power are on the increase and electricity absorbs a great portion of the power of the steam engine at this time Could there be some other power Invented that would be cheaper it would be a great blessing A power that could be depended upon to run night and day at a very nominal cost to operate pumping stations for irrigation purposes would be the means of utilizing great tracts of land that are now barren A power that would do so much and be so very cheap is now in prospect 'The New Power Motor company with' headquarters in Fort Collins is organized for this purpose to assist in developing the ideas of the undersigned to demonstrate the possibility of doing things most wonderful by the help of God who made the heavens and the earth Many false gods there have been and are yet but they cannot impart intelligence Only the true Qod is able to do this Many people are inclined to say that God would not do the like He has pledged himself through Jesus Christ to do anything for our good that by so doing man might become better acquainted with Him 8uch an ac-quatnance would result in the ideal life which so many are longing for We are rapidly drifting to what might be termed the marvelous age a time that makes the impossible possible Every man is given an opportunity to- dohte part The -writer" of this is doing something to bring about success With the help of God he will come off victorious and crown the age with one of the greatest of discoveries Reader you are given an opporunlty to help and thereby work with God and help yourself to make some money There are at present a few thousand shares of stock for sale at 25 cents a share As soon as the motor works you will have to pay $500 or $1000 a share and it is a question whether you could get any at alL 8o now Is your chance as the work is almost done This work does not depend upon the help of man jn the least yet he has the grand opportunity of helping if he chooses to exercise faith In God and man If you are inclined to want to invest just put your trust in God and look for results Vrom Him who is abundantly able WILLIAM FC GARBE President New Power Company Physician and Surgeon Office: Residence
