BUSINESS NOTICES, It promotes the flagging appetite — STEVENS HEALTH SALT—because it does Nature's work in Nature's way. It is not a nauseous medicine, but a pleasant, refreshing, and most palatable drink, unrivalled for sick headaches, biliousness, etc. Only 2/- from all cliemists and stores. 4 \ "The mixture I made % 1 from the 2/- bottle of Hean's % % Essence pi"oved the be3t \ \ co-j|;h ana cold medicine I % ■ evef used."

MOST Household Inventions, such an tho sewing inachinc and modern cooking ranges., benefit all sections of the community, and the man out-back (provided his circumstances permit) is able to make his- homo al-: most up-to-date and comfortable as j tha-t of his City cousin, whilst the ad^ i vent of motor cars and good roads lias ■ tialcon away almost his last drawback of-1 country lite, i.e., isolation. ; In the matter of HOUSE LIGHT-' ING, however, the country householder | has been at a serious. disadvantage. i Coal, gas, and electric light • are in ; universal use in all large towns, and i the city housewife would rather part ■ -vrrth her sewing machine than lose her gas stove and go bad;:. 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 them _ are ;far froifa being an efficient substitute for coal; gas, or electric light. Acetylene gas is;a great improve- ' ment on kerosene, lamps, but its objectionable feature^ are well known. rEhe gas is highly explosive, and theref/»ro dangerous, besides having an objectionable smell, while the cleaning and fill- ' ing of the carbide trays, which have to foe attended to almost every day, is a most disagreeablo operation. The averago life of an acetylene plant is usually only about four years, and the present ,hign cost of carbido makes the running expenses almost prohibitive. Hollow-wire Lighting systems which generate gas from benzine and air arc 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 i 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 la- small, and, lamps arc lighted by an ordinary wax match, and inverted gas mantles are used. The small generator, £n: which tho gar. is generated, is fitted with ah "automatic cleaning 'attachment which th<? WIZARD alone embodies ; with, tlv>ir lamp for keeping the gas tip clean, while for quality and general convenience the light compares ' very favourably with City Gas. Excellent ycooking facilities in the way of stoves and ovens are' obtainable and any grade of pe-trol or benzine can be used, the plant requiring practically no at-] tention. . , The Local Agent for the WIZARD gysftem, GEORGE LUPTON, Arcade,; Ashburton, will be pleased to furnish ; the fullest information and arrange f6r j a domonstraticei freo of obligation at any tijne or -request.
