nATENT GAS REGULAToR.-The in


ventor CDR. Kidder) of this economical and
useful instrument deserves the thanks OF the gas
consuming community. The saving effected by
the use of il will be found fully rs per cent. in ev-
cry persons gas bill. Il can be so adjusted as to
supply the gas al any desired pressure less than
that Of the street, and when once adjusted, the
Regulator will continue TO supply the gas at that
pressure uniformly without requiring further care
or attention, and independent of all the fuctua-
tons OF the street pressure. An additional advan-
tage obtained by this Regulator is light Of more
agreeable quality, in place Of the blush white
color Of the ordinary gas light, occasioned by the
high pressure at which the gas is consumed. As
an evidence of its practical utility il is now in op-
Grafton in some Of the principal notels and large
stores in New York city, who all bear favorable
testimony 10 its value. Il has also received the
united Communications Of the press.
Hotel proprietors and storekeepers in the city OF
Washington and its vicinity, desirous TO avail
themselves OF the economiser. can obtain all fur
ther information by calling on the subscriber, who
has fitted one Of these Regulators up in his store,
and will give an illustration Of il.
