Insist on H-E-A-N-'S COUNTRY HOUSE LiGHTING. ;~M,|[OST Household In-.-entions, such I/A as the mowing machine and , modern cooking rangei, benefit all sections of the community, and the man oufc-back (provided 'mii circumstances permit) is able to make his home almost' up-to-dji.ro and comfortable as that of his City cousin, whilst the advent of motor cars and good roads has taken awa-y almost his last" drawback of country life, 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 us» in all large towns, and the city housewifo would rather part with her Sevang machine than lose her gas stove and go hack to kerosene lamps, which aro used in most country liomes to-day. A number of self-con-tained gas-lighting systems are, of course, obtainable in' New Zealand at present, bufc the majority of them are far from being an efficient substitute' for coal, gas, or electric light.

Acetylene gas ia a great "improvement on kerosene lamps, but its objectionable features are. well known. The gas is highly explosive, and therefore dangerous, besides having an objectionable smell, white the cleaning and filling'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 £our years, and the present high cost of carbide mn.kes the running erpenses almost prohibitive. Hollow-wiro Lighting systems which generate gas from benzine and air aro in grea.t demand at present. There are tyro kinds of hollow-wire plants on the market, but tho one adopted ~by the' New Zealand Government foi\ use in country J'ost Offices, Wireless Stations, etc., viz., the famous "WIZARD, is the mast up-to-date and efficient. Over 1500 complete^ WIZARD systems have been. «>id in Nev, r Zealand within the last 12 months. The initial cost is small, and lamps aro lighted by an ordinary waxVnnteb, .'.nd inverted gas mantles aro usocl. Tho ?mall generator, in which tho gas is ge^-crated, is fitted with an automatic- clcn.iing attachment which the ' WIZARD alono embodies with tlioir lamp for looping the gas tip clcri, while for q;;;>!;ty and general convenience'the light' compares very favourably with City Oas. Excellent cooking facilities--in tho way of stoves and ovens ivi'« obt.iin.ible and any grade of petrol or ben/me can be used, the plant requiring practically no attention .
