Since Electricity baa been applied for lighting pnrposea, all efforta of inventors have been directed to construct a lamp fur general domestic nse. The reason why this problem has till now not been solved, is that none of the inventors conld 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 largo machinery, instead of first laying down the principle that a lamp which should ever become generally use ful 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 ast succeeded In completely realising this desl of electric lighting, and there is no doubt that this most important invention will bring about a complete revolution In all branches of lighting. Out electric lamp needs neither machi nery, conductors, nor any expensive out day, and Is neither complicated, nor dis agreeable iu manipulation; all that is necessary is to refill it every four or five 'days with add. The coat of lighting will be as cheap as gas (| cents per hour), and it has before the latter the immense ad vantage of neither producing heat, smoke «ioff carbonic Eddy owing to which the air Is not imputed, 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 -ii 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 I advantage alone is invaluable. It is fur ther preferable to any known kind of jghting for the following reasons 1. Its manipulation ia bo 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 filing of the wick, or the cleaning of the cylinder, as in the case of oil lamps. 4. That the light produced ia a soft and moat, steady one j that it never flickers, and the flame, though being equal in power of lighting to gas, can bo regulated to any degree. _ , 6. That every danger of fire is abso lutely excluded, ae 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 size. Height of complete lamp, 14 inones; weight, about 5 lbs ; for lighting rooms, cellars, storage houses, powder magazines or similar places where explosives,are kept, coaches, illuminations, Bardens, mines, 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. Tb>a lamp is elegantly decorated, and has removable white ground glass globe. Price, per lamp (inclusive of bronze foot and globe, richly and elegantly con ■trucked, L2 ; delivered free to any part of the world. ... . C, Grand size for parlor, ball, 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, Faience or Silver Oxide. Any special size or design made to order, nstimatea furnished. All lamps are ready for immediate nse, and will be sent, securely packed in strong wooden box, with printed directions for tue, a quantity of chetricals sufficient tor several months’ lighting, and one extra burner for size A, and two for sizes B and O. The necessary chemicals can oe 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 not give complete satisfaction.

Dear Fkikkds —We have so ate 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 la only our regard 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 ou 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, la only to note the extraordinary amount of the sales of our Haydock s New Liver Pilh 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 mapd la because we find in Haydock’* 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 disease and claiming much as to their merit, (he 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 plhs enfeeble the stomach and paralyse 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 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. TRANSLATION. Aykab. Province of Burmah, 8.1.
