1 Poor writing is the source of great trouble. The letter from a personal fiend loses most of its charm if therei- ugiver has to work and worry over its Not more than fifty years ago in this country the tallow candle industry was in vogue in nearly every house- hold ; following this came coal oil. then gas, followed by electricnty, which was first installed by that eminent engineer M. Demyrooze in 1875. In addition to his long connection with electric light- ing he has to his credit many inven- tions and improvements relating to gas and electric lumps and he is uni- versally regarded as one of the first authorities on electric lighting in the world. Tobaccos Mr. J. E. “'hitley in Chambers Journal fox Decuuher describes this new illuminant, the new kinglight, which is three times as cheap as pet- roleum, and from seven to eight times as cheap as electricity, while giving a. far better light and needing n0 con- duits for its distribution. M. Demyrooze proclaims that he has discovered a new lighting factor and he has invented a special lamp for its use. The city of Paris is so impressed with the possibilities «.I' the new illuminant that an experiment is being made with , ten thousand of the new burners as. urrangul for street lighting. The I municipality has been tempted by the: promise of greater lighting power with i ‘lusolC and its cheapncss in compari-1 son with any other illuminant. ‘Lusol' is merely a commercial name for the new light, which is especially rich in carbon. It is extracted from coal, and is a sort of twin to acetyleneâ€"an acet- ylene, indeed, in liquid form and minus its explosions. The lamp is described as being an ideal one for the drawing- room or the study, as it is quite silent and clean, does not. leak, does not smoke, its wick does not require at- tention, it has no smell, and it pro- duces a steady flame of equable strength and having a brilliant white light. The lusol lamp can be left turning a. whole day for a cost of from five to six cents. Pipes This is the place to buy smokers’ articles MacFaflanB DURHAM, NOVEMBER 22, 1906. QRHAM CHRONICLE fl. IRWIN.
