and with it is now introduced the Gas Engine.
Professor John r. Saomon after twentysix years of
close observation upon the experiments of his and Of
others in attempts TO make the principle of the condensa

for his sImproyed Carbonic Acid Engine" now offers to
dispose of rights for the thereof to the United States
government and to individuals companies the rights

The immense saving Of money and labor and of human
lives and suffering secured by the of this motor,
will inevitably insure its speedy adoption in all Bsces

places where the great EXPENSE bulk and weight Of tho
steam engine has precluded its use. j.. r.
This motor may be applied to all purposes as pro-
