Messrs. Hal & GoodeH;-An experience of many
years In the gas fitting business has often suggested
to me the great value of au improvement Whereby
the pre- of gas might be regulated at the point
of consumption. Many and frutless attempts have
fro time to time been made TO place regulators
the meter. Experience has shown that all such at
tempts have proved failures have also and
used in my business nearly all the Improve
ments in burners wherein that which you have ac-
complished has been attempted. but always failed.
After a careful examination and fhoroue h test of
your Gas Regulators-whicb attached immedi-
ately under each burner part of the gas fixture
am fully convinced that your improvement /, a de-
cided success the lights improved in brightness and
in lis Illuminating power. while the expense saved to
the consumer is full 80 per cent. The combustion is
perfect, hence the improvement must be adopted a
matter of economy, well as the luxury of a good
and steady light / cheerfully recommend IL to the
trade aud to all consumers of gas
