•XIHB LATEST AMERICAN X INVENTION. THE YIOTORt OF BLBOTRICIT S'. „ Since Eleotrioi'y baa been applied for lighting purposes, all efforts of inventors bare been directed to construct a lamp for general domestic nee. The reason why th?« problem has till now not been solved, b none of the inventors could rid themselves of the idea of gas lighting, and th»t all have adhered to the system of producing the electricity in some central place, or by large machinery, instead of (jut laying down the principle that a lamp which should ever become generally use ful and popular, must be portable, like sn-oil lamp, and contain the generator of electricity in itself, * e., in the foot of the lamp. The Norman Electric Light Co. has at ast;succeeded in completely realising this deal of electric lighting, and there is no doubt that this most important invention will bring about a complete revolution in all branches of lighting. Our electric lamp needs neither maebi* BCty, conductors, nor any'expensive oat* day, and Is neither complicated, nor dis agreeable in manipulation j all that is necessary is to refill it every four or five dan with The cost of lighting will be ae cheap as gas (f cents per hour), and ft has before the latter the immense ad vantage of neither producing heat, smoke 4or oarbonio add, owing to which the air b not imputed, and remains at the same degree, of temperature. It is, further, absolutely inodorous, and does not need fto be kindled by match or otherwise, but •imply by turning 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 fur ther preferable to any known kind of bluing for the following reasons: — Ju Its manipulation la so, simple that 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 abb fixing of the wick, or the cleaning of the cylinder, sa in the case of oil lamps. 4. That tbe light produced is a soft and moet steady one; that it never flickers, mr,A 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 lately excluded, as the light, will extin guish immediately, if by any accident the glsaa surrounding the burner should bo broken. 6. *| hat it will bum, even In the strong est wind, completely unaffected, thus bn- Dg invaluable for illuminations, lighting j corridors, etc. Thia lamn is constructed fur the present three different sizes:— ’ bib oil size.

We have been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years and have in the long course of this time manufactured certain Medicines chat 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 our Haydook s New Liver PUL We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Yiala of Dr flaydook's New Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand is because we find in Haydook’,, 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 diseases and claiming much as to their merit, the remark .bte dis covery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of four or five pUxs 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 dock’s New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomach in perfect order creates an appetite, and render? 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. TRANSLATION. Ay tab. Province of Burmah, 8.1.

After seven years’ experience I have great pleasure in testifying to the efficacy of your “ Lung Preserver,” having proved it fit my family to be a specific for coughs, colds, eta, a few doses invariably subdu ing the nasty harassing cough, while re lieving the throat and chest, it does not, like other nostnmu, disorder the digestive organa by inducing nausea, constipation, headaches, loss oil appetite, etc. I can heartily recommend it as the best, cheapest and moat palatable mixture known for coughs, colds, bronchitis, whooping cough, etc. So highly do we esteem it that we always keep a supply on hand.
