Any orders left at the Ofaki Mill, or .it J, Graham's Store (late Bapp & Hare), Emporium, Masterton, will rec;i\ e prompt attention, " 1906 The Latest American Invention, Fr Electricity has been applied for light ing purposes, all efforts of inventors have been directed to construct a lamp for general domestic uso. 'The reason that this problem has not till now been solved, is that none of the inventors could rid themselves of the idea of gas lighting, and that all have adhered to the system of producing the Electricity in some central place, or by large machinery, instead of first laying down the principle that a Lamp which should ever 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. has at last succeeded in completely realizing this ideal of Electric Lighting, anil there is no doubt that this most important invention will bring about - complete revolution in allbranchcs of lighting. Our Electric Lamp needs neither Machinery, Conductors, nor any expensive, outlay, and is neither complicated, nor disagreeable in manipulation ; all that is necessary is to refill it every four or five days with acid. The cost of lighting will be as cheap as gas cent per hour), and it has before the latter the immense advantage of neither producing heat, smoke, nor carbonic acid, owing to which tho air is not imputed, aud remains at the same degree of temperature, It is further, absolutely inodorous, and does not need to bo kindled by match, or otherwise, but simply by turning the key, thus avoiding all danger of fire, explosion, or suffocation, as in the easo of gas, if tho key is left open j 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 simplo that any child can keep it in order, (2) That tho Lamp is portable, and can be removed like any Oil Lamp, from ouo place to another. (3) That it neither requires the disagreeable fixing'of the wick, or the cleaning of the cylinder, as in the case of Oil Lamps, (4) That the light produced is a soft and most ~eady ono ; that it never flutes, aud the flame, though being equal in power of lighting to gas, can be regulated to any degree." (5) That every danger of, fire : ia absolutely excluded, as the light will extinguish imme. diately, if by any accident the glass surrounding tho burner should be broken. : (G) That it will 'burn, even in the strongest wind, completely unaffected, thus being inj valuable for illuminations, lighting of gardens! corridors, etc, ,' , | This Lamp is constructed for the present in three different sizes:— • t.
