The LECLAIR GAS-BURNING LAMP, of
which Capt. r. Battersby is the Pacific coast
Agent, has been in use by us for several weeks
past, and surpasses our utmost expectations for
the brilliancy of its light and the cheapness of
the fluid necessary to serve it. In families it is
particularly desirable, on account of its freedom
from disagreeable odor, its cleanliness ana the
safety attending its use. 1t gives SOFT lumn-
Gus light which neither tries nor impairs the
vision, and is besides, ornamental to the mantel
or center table. etake great pleasure in rec

Capt. BatterS5y:-1 have now in use at my Of
fee, the I" Leclair Lamp" which | obtained from
you. l have given it a fair trial, and am satisfied
that it is superior to any light I have used.
The fame is soft and brilliant, giving equally as
much light as two Kerosene lamps of equal size,
and at least three sperm candles. For cheap
ness it cannot be excelled.

The Leezair Lan,p-I have had the celebrated
Leclar Lamp in use for some time, and have no
hesitation in pronouncing it superior as burner,
both as regards cheapness and brilliancy, to any
other lamp now offered for sale. The light is
soft and luminous, and lamp of parlor size
equal to at least four sperm candles.

CAPT. Botteys5y We have used one of your
Leclair Lamps for some time, and find it to give
a good, cheap and brilliant light, and to be the
most economical now in use. We take pleasure
in recommending it to the public.

Capt. Battersby Sir:-We have used the I.e-
clair Gas Lamp in our Drug Store for several
weeks, and find it to be what it is recommended
1t produces splendid light, is easily managed,
and at the present price of fluid, one-half, or
less than that of coal oil, we consider it a
cheap and agreeable light. For reading it has
| no superior. FRANCHERE & BUTLER.

The Leczair Lawp.-I prefer the light given
by this Lamp to that given by candles, coal oil,
camphene, kerosine, or gas. 1t is far pleasanter
and cheaper than either and perfectly free from
danger. The very fact of it being non-explosive
| should recommend it to all who use lights.
