A pleasant effervesciug aperi-' ent in a most palatable form. 2/-, chemists and stores. 1 COUNTRY HOUSE LiGHTING. MOST Household Inventions, such as the sowing machine and modern cooking ranges, benefit- all sections of the community,, and tho man out-back (provided his circumstances permit-) is able to make his homo almost up-to-date and comfortable as that of his City cousin, whilst the advent of motor cars and good roads has taken away almost his last drawback of country iit'c, i.e., isolation. In the matter of HOUSE LIGHTING, however, tho country householder has been at a serious disadvantage. Coal, gas, and electric light are in universal use in all large towns, and tho city housewife would rather part with her sewing machine than lose her gas stove and go back to kerosene lamps, which are used in most country homes to-day. A. number of self-con-tained gas-lighting systems are, of course, obtainable in New Zealand at present, but the majority of thorn are far from being an -efficient substitute for coal, gas, or electric light. . Acetylene gas is a great improvement on kerosene lamps) but its objectionable features are well known. The gas is highly explosive, and therefore dangerous, besides having an objoction-1 able smell, while- tho cleaning and tilling of the carbide trays, which have to be attended, to almost every day, is a most disagreeable- operation. The averago life of an acetylene plant is usually only about four years, arid the present high cost f>f carbide makes the running expenses almost prohibitive. Hollow-wire Lighting systems which generate, gas from benzine and air are in great demand at present. There are two kinds of hollow-wire plants on tho market, but tho one adopted by the New Zealand Government for use in country' Post Offices, Wireless Stations, etc., viz., the. famous WIZARD, is the most up-to-date and efficient. Over 1500 complete WIZARD systems have been sold in New Zealand within the last 12 months. The initial cost is small, and lamps aro lighted by an ordinary wax match, and inverted gas 'mantles aro used. Tho small generator, in which the-gas is generated,l, is fitted with an automatic cleaning attachment which the WIZARD alone embodies with their lamp for keeping the gas tip clean, while for quality and general convenience the light compares very favourably with City Gas. Excellent cooking facilities in the way of stoves and ovens are obtainable and any grade of petrol or benzine can. be used, the plant requiring practically no attention. Tho Local Agent for the WIZARD svsfemi, GEORGE LIIPTON, Arcade, Ashburtou, will ba pleased to furnish the fullest information and arrange for a demonstration free of obligation at a.'iv time or request.
