THE LATEST AMERICAN INVENTION. THE VICTORY OF ELSCTBICIIY, SINCE Electricity has been applied for lighting purposes, all efforts flf inventori' hate hern directed 1 , to cdulruct a lamp for general domestic use. The reason why this pfpbleta has till; flow "'not been •olved;Hs rlrtlfnbne of' the idrentors could rid tbrmselves of the idea of gas lighting, and that. 1 all adhered to the system of producing the Electricity in some central place, or by - machinery; instead . of} down*" the principle that' a Lamp which should eve' become generally useful and popular must be portable, like an Oil Lamp, and contain the generator of Electricity in itself, i. e., in the foot of the Lamp. The Norman Electric Light Co. have at last succeeded in completely realising this ideal of Electric Lighting, and there is no doubt that this moat important invention will bring about a complete revolution in all branches of Lighting, Our Electric Lamp needs neither Machinery, Conductors, nor any expensive outlay, arid is neither complicated, nor di-agreeable in manipulation ; all that is necessary is to refill it etery four or fire days with acid. The cost of lighting will bo as cheap as gas (5 cents per hour), and it has before the latter immense advantage of neither producing heat, smoke or carbonic acid, owing to which the air is not impaired, and remains at the same degree of temperature. It is further, absolutely inodorous, and does not need to be kindled by match, or otherwise, but simply by turning the key, thus avoiding all danger of fire, explosion or suffocation, as in the case of gas, if the key is left alone ; and it must be conceded that this advantage alone is invaluable. It is further preferable to any known kind of lighting for the following reasons (1) Its manipulation is so simp'e that any child can keep it in order. (2) That the Lamp is portable,Jand can be removed like any Oil Lamp from one place to another. (3) That it neither requires the idisogreeable fixing of the wjok, or the cleaning of the cylinder, as in the case of Oil Lamps. (4) That the light produced is a soft and most steady one ; that it never flickers, and the flame, though being equal in power of lighting I o gas, can be regulated to any degree. (5) That every danger of fire is absolutely excluded,', as the light will extinguish immediately if by any accident the glass surrounding the burner should be broken. (6) That it Till burn, even in the strongest wind, completely unaffeoted, 1 thus be.ng invaluable for illuminations, lighting of gardens, corridors, etc. ; Tbis-Lamp is constructed for the present’ in three different sizes : A, small size. Height of eomplete Lamp, -14 inches; weight, about-5 pounds ; for ' lighting rooms, hollars, storage j houses; powder magazines (or similar places were explosives are kept), coaches, illuminatiousi'gardens, mines, or any ether industrial purposes. Price £1 per lamp, delivered free to any part of Che \Yorld. B, medium size. Serves all domestic purposes for lighting room's, house®; ! This Lamp is elegantly decorated, and has re movable white ground Glass Globe. Price, per Lamp (inclusive of .Bronze Foot and Globe, richly and elegantly;constructed), £2, delivered free to any part of the World. 0. Grand size for parlcfl, hall, saloon, public building, etc. The Lamp gives a most brilliant and steady light, has large removable white Globe, decorated most tastefully, and the workmanship is both'first-class and elegant. Price, £4 10s. Foot of Lamp is either Bronze, Japanese, Faience or Silver Ozide. Any special size or design made to order. Estimates furnished. All Lamps are ready for immediate use, and witl be sent, securely packed in strong wooden boxes, with printed directions for me, a quantity of chemical sufficient for several months’ lighting, and one extra burner for size A, and two for sizes B and C. The necessary chemicals can be purchased in any Drug Store, in even the smallest village. Every Lamp is accompanied by a written guarrantee for one year, and will be exchasged or money refunded it |the same should not give complete satisfaction. On all orders for six lamps and above a discount of six per cent will be allowed. No orders from abroad filled, unless accompanied by a remittance’to cover the amount, or first-class refereh'Ces ttn a New York or Philadelphia house. ' ; The best method of sending money is by draft,on New York, which can be procured at any Banker, and everywhere, or enclose the amount in Bank notes, gold coins, or postage stamps of any country of the world. All orders, the smallest as well as the most Important, will receive the same particular attention, and will be forwarded without delay. Our Electric Lamps are protected by law, and ail imitations and infringements will be prosecuted. Agents, Salesmen on Commission, and Consignees for our Lamps, wanted everywhere. No special knowledge or capital re quired, A fortune to be made by active persons. Address: THE NORMAN ELECTRIC LIGHT C 0„ nolJ T Philadelphia, U.B. of America, GRATEFUL—COMFORTING.
