Since Electricity has been applied for lighting purposes, all efforts of inventors have been directed to construct a lamp for general donfestio use. The reason why tiffs problem has till now not 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 use ful and popular, must bo portable, like ftQ oil lamp, and contain tho generator of electricity in itself, i s., in the foot of the lamp* The Norman Bleotric Light Co. has at ast succeeded in completely realising this di»yl of electric lighting, and there is no doubt that this most important invention will bring abont a complete revolution in all branches of lighting. Oar electric lamp needs neither machi nery, conductors, nor anjr expensive out day, and is neither complicated, nor dis agreeable in manipulation; all that is necessary is to refill it every four or five days with acid. The cost of lighting wifi be as cheap as gas (| cents per hour), and it has before the latter the immense ad /sntage of neither producing heat, smoke nor carbonic acid, owing to which the air ia not impored, and remains at the same degree of jtemperature. It is, farther, absolutely inodorous, and does not need to be kindled by match or otherwise, but simply by taming the key, thus avoiding all danger of fire, explosion or suffocation, as in the case of gas, if the key Is left open ; and it most be conceded that this advantage alone is invaluable. It is far ther preferable to any known kind of }«i.Hn g for the following reasons 1. Its manipulation is so simple that any child can keep it in order. 2. That the lamp is portable, and can be removed like any oil lamp from one place to another ~ 3. That it neither requires the disagree able fixing of the wick, or the cleaning of the cylinder, as in the case of oil lamps. 4. That tbe light produced is a soft and most steady one ; that it never flickers, and -the flame, though being equal in power of lighting to gas, can be regulated to any degree. . _ . , 6. That every danger of fire is abso lutely excluded, as the light will extin guish immediately, if by any accident the glass surrounding the burner should he broken. . , 6. That it will bum, even in the strong est wind, completely unaffected, thus be ing invaluable for illuminations, lighting of gardens, corridors, etc. This lamp is constructed for the present in three different sizes A t small size. Height of complete lamp, 14 inones ; weight, about 6 lbs ; for lighting rooms, cellars, storage houses, powder magazines or similar places where explosives.are kept, coaches, Uluminations, gardens, mini*, or any other industrial purpose. Price, LI per lamp, delivered free to any part of the world. B, medium size. Serves all domestic purposes for lighting rooms, houses, etc. Th's lamp is elegantly decorated, and has removable white ground glass globe. Price, per lamp (inclusive of bronze foot and globe, richly and elegantly con ■trnctod, IS ; delivered free to any part of tbe world. . „ . C. Grand size for parlor, hall, saloon, public building, etc. The lamp gives a most brilliant and steady light, has large removable white globe, decorated moat tastefully, and the workmanship is both first-class and elegant. Price, L 4 10s. Foot of lamp in either bronze, Japanese, Paience or Silver Oxide. Any special size or design made to order, estimates famished. All lamps are ready for immediate use, and will be sent, securely packed In strong wooden box, with printed directions for use, a quantity of chetricals sufficient for several months’ fighting, and one extra burner for size A, and two to: sizes B and O. The necessary chemicals can be par chased in any drug store, in even the smallest village. ... ... Every lamp is accompanied by a written guarantee for one year, and will be ex changed, or money refunded, if the same should not give complete satisfaction. On all orders for six lamps and above, a discount of six per cent will be allowed. Ho orders from abroad filled, unless ao commuted by ft romittanc© to cover th© amount, or first-class references on a New York or Philadelphia house. The best method of sending money is by draft on New York, which can bo pro cured at any banker, and everywhere, or enclose tbe amount in bank notes, gold oixxa, or postage stamps of any country of the world. All orders, the smallest, as well as the moot important, will receive the same particular attention, and will be forwarded without delay.

Medical. Q N E WORD. Dsab Friends —We have some hesita tion in addressing yon In the manner fol lowing, bnt hope that it will not be looked at in any invidious light, when we state that it is only onr regard for yonr health that causes us to do it. We have been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years and have in the long course of this time manufactured certain Medicines that being baaed on scientific formula and absolute care and precision In manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far in advance of any other Pharmaceuti cal Preparations of the day. How suc cessful we have been In this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the sales of our Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand is because we find in Haydook' a New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The Victories of Science— Electric Telegraphs, Steam and Printing —revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet ter. So, although there are countless Pills used for diseased and claiming much as to their merit, the remarkable dis covery of Dr Hayduok has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of four or five pilis enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, most give way to the man who restores health and appetite with one or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay dock’s Now Liver Pills suffices to place the stomach in perfect order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affected its func tions are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, it is invigorated and sustained.

TESTIMONIALS: From Rsv. Charles Pmnrr— Reef ton (Late of Christchurch), March 17, 1884 I am happy to say!your Pulmonic Elixir afforded my wife and children almost im mediate relief in coughs and colds, and many to whom I hare bad the pleasure of recommending yonr specific have spoken of it as invaluable. In one case when every remedy tried was powerless to give relief (the congh was so distressing) the first dose of yonr Elixir proved most effective. In another case (sore throat) a care was soon brought about that the patient resolved in the future to take no thing else.



Other oases could be cited, but these will be sufficient to show that your Pul monic Elixir Is a remedy of no mean order. From 0. F. Saixkk, Esq. , Barrister and Solicitor— Inglls’Buildings, Christchurch.

I hare uniformly found a single dose of “ Lung Preserver," check a severe paroxysm of coughing. I shall on all occasions hare great pleasure in recommending it to sufferers, as I con sider it a boon to mankind.



From Isaac Aubv Esq, , Commission Agent— Hereford street, Ohriatohurch, December 6, 1883. After seven years’ experience 1 have great pleasure In testifying to the efficacy of your “ Lung Preserver,” having proved it in my family to be a specific for coughs, colds, etc., a few doses invariably subdu ing the nasty harassing cough, while re lieving the throat and chest, it does not, like other nostrums, disorder the digestive organs by inducing nausea, constipation, headaches, loss of appetite, etc. I can heartily recommend it as the beat, cheapest and most palatable mixture known for coughs, colds, bronchitis, whooping congh, etc. So highly do we esteem it that we always keep a supply on hand. From W. B. Scorr, Esq., Builder, eta, Peterborough reet, Ohriatohurch, December 4,1883. Borne years ago I was recommended to try a bottle of your “ Pulmonic and Lung Preserver,” for tightness in the chest. I did so, and from that time I have never been without it in the house. 1 have found it to answer in every respect for coughs, colds, and sore throat, and would strongly advise those that are suf fering from such complaints to try it To be had of all Chemists and Store keepers, in bottles, Is ljd, 8s 9d, 4s fid and ils each.
