Gas in the Wash-house.

Gas in the wash-house sounds novel, but it is quite the modern practice, Actual experience is proving that a gas copper counts for ease and economy in disposing of the domestic duties pertaining to the household washing. If a gas iron he added, it menus that the disposal of the washing, instead of being a- drudge, becomes a pleasure. The gas copper' is what the womenfolk appreciate. The heat is there all the time it is required, and when it is not wanted, the fuel supply may be turned off promptly. Using gas-fuel saves all the drudgery and delay of wood and coal tiring. The running in and out to tlie vvood shed, and the encountering of hot and cold blasts in leaving the .wash-house frequently for fresh supplies of fuel is avoided. The. use of gas obviates all the trouble. The necessary supply is at hand for ready service always, and therein ip the ease and economy referred to in an advertisement by the Hokitika- Gas Company to-day. Householders who require a modern service installed should communicate with the local manager at the Gas Works, and all information will be supplied. The gas is very handy to have on tap. Now that the winter has been entered upon it is wise to have the service available- for the early morning cooking. For lighting and heating it is a reliable servant. It ca.n be adopted to most household purposes, and no home is effectively equipped which has not the gas service at hand for every' day use in a. modern practical fashion.
