MOST Household Inventions, such as the sewing machine and modern cooking ranges, benefit all sections of the oommunityj and the man •out-back (provided his circumstances permit), is able to make his home allncsfc \ ,uj>^,tp-dato and comfortable as that of -liisi City cousin, whilst the ad- , veiit of motor 'cars and good roads has taken away almost his last drawback of country-life, i.e., isolation. In the matter of HOUSE LIGHTING, however, the 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 {'as stove and go back to kerosene lamps, which are used in most country ]<<«nes to-day. A number of self-con-itained .gas-lighting systems are> of t .vvrse. obtainabla in New Zealand at p-csent, but the majority of them are '< fir from being an* efficient substitute for coal, gas, or electric light. _ Acetylene gas is a great improvement on kerosene lamps, birt its objectionable features are well known. The jras is. highly explosive,, and therefore dangerous, besides 'Having aii objectionis bta stn"oll>. while the cleaning and filling of the carbide trays, which have to ."ho attended to almost every day, is a 'most disagreeable operation. The aver;s>a;^ life of an acetylene plant is usually only about -four years/ and the present lngh~.cpst of 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 the market, but the 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 as small, and lamps are lighted by an ordinary wax match, and inverted gas mantles are used. The small generator, in which tho gan is generated, is fitted with an automatic cleaning attachment "which the WIZARD alone embodies

with th&ir tamp 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, tiie jalant requiring practically no atThe Local Agent for the .WIZARD system, GEORGE LUPTON, Arcade, .
