Since Electricity has been applied for lighting purposes, all efforts of inventors have b?en directed to construct a lamp for general domestic nse. The reason why this problem has till now not been solved, Is'that hone 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 be portable, like iq 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 moat important invention will bring about a complete revolution in all branches of lighting. Oar electric lamp needs neither machi nery, conductors, nor any expensive oat ay, 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 will be as cheap as gas (| cents per hour), and it has before the latter the immense ad vantage of neither producing heat, smoke nor carbonic add, owing to which the ait is not imputed, and remains at the same degree of .temperature. It is, farther, absolutely inodorous, and does not need tb bo 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 must be conceded that this advantage alone is invaluable. It is fur ther preferable to any known kind of Tghting 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 the 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 bo regulated to any degree. . 5. That every danger of fire is abso lutely excluded, as the light will extin guish immediately, if by any accident the glam surrounding the burner should bo broken. , 6. 1 hat it will burn, 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 inches; weigh*, about 5 lbs ; for lighting rooms, cellars, storage booses, powder magazines or similar places where explosives are kept, coaches, illuminations, gardens, mines, or any other industrial purpose. Price, LI per lamp, delivered free to any part of the world B medium size.

Medical. Q N B WORD. Dear Friends—We have some hesita tion in addressing yon in the manner fol lowing, bat hope that it will not be looked at In any invidious light, when we state that it 1s only onr 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 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 onr Hay dock 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 Haydock’ 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 thereare countless Pills used for diseases Mdnlaiming much as to their merit, Ul3 remarkable dis covery of Dr Hayduck has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys tem. The Doctoia, whose vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bowols, 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’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.

I am happy to sayjyour 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 another case (sore throat) a core was soon brought about that the patient resolved in the future to take no thing else. Other cases could be cited, but these will be sufficient to show that your Pul monic Elixir la a remedy of no mean order.

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



From Isaac Aixev £sq, , Commission Agent— Hereford street, Christchurch, December 6, 1883. After seven years' experience I have great pleasure in testifying to the efficacy of your “ Long 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 best, 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.
