THE LATEST AMERICAN liN^W / TlOtf. : ~ v n VICTORY of ELECTRICITY. 5 —Since Electricity has been applied £or lightiug'purposesj all efforts of inventors have., beeu directed to construct ,'a |amp for generiri domestic ,use f r The: reason why this problem , till now, not been solved, is .that' none of the inventors could rid' themselves of the 1 iddi of gas-lighting and that all har«' adheied to the System of producing thef 1 lectricity in soine central, place, or by. hirge machinery, instead^of first paying downthe principal that a'La'mp popular, must be portable^ like au Oil .Lamp,v'and eontaialthe generator of Electricity in itself**. 6» in tiie fcot.pf the Lamp- , : ; The "Norman Electric Light Co, jljias. at last, succeeded- in: completely realizing this ideal of Electric Lightmrig, and there isnoi doubt that this mps^jrapprtant invention; will bring: about a complete rejlatioii. in all branches of lighting. *...,. . 'Our Electric Lamp needs neither Mdchvtiery, '(Conductors, nor' any J expensive §uday f and is neither complicated, isagreeable in manipulation ;' all that is tfecessa'rj is to refill it every four or five days with acid. ; The cost of lighting will be a* cheap as gas (f . cents per hour), and it hajslbefore the latter the immense ad-: vantage of neither producing heat^ smoke nor carbonic acid, owing to wliicli the air is;iiot;.imßured»iand remain^; at tbß^ same fjegrao- of?, temperature.
