The latest American invention. THE VICTORY OF ELECTRICITY. Since Electricity has been applied for lighting purposes, all efforts of inventors Have been directed to construct a lamp for general domestic nse. The reason why this problem has till now not been solved, is that none of the inventors coaid 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 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 realising this ideal of electric lighting, and there is no doubt that this most important invention will bring about a complete revolution in ail branches of lighting. Our electric lamp needs neither machi nery, ‘ conductors, nor any expensive out lay, and is neither complicated, nor dis agreeable in manipulation j 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 (f cents per hour), and it has before the latter the immense ad vantage of neither producing heat, smoke nor carbonic acid, owing to which the air is not impnred, and remaina at the same degree of ,temperature. It is, farther, absolutely inodorous, and does not need to be kindled by matob 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 must be conceded that this advantage alone is invaluable. It is fur ther preferable to any known kind of lighting 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 c»s« of oil lamps. 4. Thaftbe light produced is a soft and most steadv one; that it never flickers, and the. fiime, 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 be 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.,' small sizs. Height of complete lamp, 14 inenes ; weight, about 5 lbs ; for lighting rooms, cellars, storage houses, powder magazines or similar places where explosiveS'bre kept, coaches, illuminations, gardens, mines, or any other industrial purpose.

The necessary chemicals can re par chased in any drag 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 No orders from abroad filled, unless ac companied by a remittance to cover the amount, or first-class references on a New York or Philadelphia house.

Medical. Q » B WORD. Dxab Fhirnds —We hare some hesita tion in addressing you 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 our vegard for your 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 based 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 oar Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Baydook’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand is because we find in Baydook’s Now 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 diseases and claiming much as to their merit, the remarkable dis covery of Dr Haydock has eclipsed them all, and has founded a Kew Medical Sys tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bowels, must 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 dook’a New 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.

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 have had the pleasure of recommending your specific have spoken of it as invaluable. In one case when every remedy tried was powerless to give relief (the cough was so distressing) the first dose of your Elixir proved most effective. In soother case (sore throat) a cure was soon brought about that the patient resolved in the future to take no thing else.



Other oases could be cited, bat these will be saffioleat to show that your Pul monic Elixir is s remedy of no mean order. From 0. F. Salxbb, Esq., Barrister and Solicitor— Inglia’ Buildings, Christchurch. March 20,1884. 1 have used your Pulmonic Elixir in my family for some years past, and hare found it very efficacious in chest and throat complaints. From William Reed, Esq., Shipping and Customs Agent— Lyttelton, Nov. 28. 1883. I have used your Lung Preserver in my family for the last fourteen years, there for 3 have the greatest pleasure in bearing testimony to its efficacy in the treatment of coughs, colds, bronchitis, croup whoop ing cough, etc. I have recommended it to my friends, who have also proved it a very palatable and speedy cure for chest I and throat complaints. 1 have uniformly found a single dose of “ Lung Preserver,” check a severe paroxysm of coughing. I shall on all occasions have great pleasure in recommending it to sufferers, as 1 con sider it a boon to mankind.
