A New Method of Signalling on Railways (Classic Reprint)

The present merges instantaneously into the past; and when we look back upon events which have occurred during our lifetime, it is hard to realise them in all their pristine force. They appear to us as mere dreams. Marvellous indeed must be the organization of man, seeing that he can act on the spur of the moment, which is gone like a flash of Kghtning. However distressing the rapid passage of time may be to us on reflection, yet it only shows the vital importance of never losing time which is not money, according to the old saying, but life. Time brings us nearer to death; and, death once reached, ends our eflforts on this earth for ever.
