There were more force thon polite:
ness in the old lads's appeal, but this
was no time for plaLitudes.
Mrs. Fries said l, 'sheres one
thing about t-if she stays now, she
must stay fo ever.
Kate uttered soft little cry, aud put
her arms about the old lads. She look
ed over at me. with a wonderful light
in her ewes, and a sudden soitenlng OF
her whole beng.
Oh, IS that itf I said. We'll, stay

Utilizing Gas We'll.

Bradford. Pa, and ncighborIng places
are lighted and heated by natural gas.
In 1875 an oil company was sinking a
well on 4 high hill west CT Bradford.
Atthe depth of several hundred feet
they struck a vein of gas. No oil was
foun1. The force OF the gas was such
that when 1t was ignited a pillar Of fire
more than fifty feet high was formed.
The roar OF the gas could be heard for a
mile aud more. This burned for
months. The heat was such that the
grass and foliage grew in the depth of
winter as luxuriauilY for hundreds Of
feet around as it did IN the summer.
Straw berries ripened near this well 10
February. The we'll had been burning
tor long time before the feasibility Of
utilizing it was thought Of. A belt Of
dry territory, but yielding vast volumes
of gas. was subsequently found to exist
IN :he vicinity of the original gas well.
A company was formed to carry the
GAS into the city. Itis now distributed
all over the place by pipes. A gas
pipe. with jets attlchei, is run into
parlor and kitchen stoves. The supply
of gas is controlled by a stopcock on
the pipe. When a fire is wanted a
lighted match is thrown iaIo the stove
and the gas turned on. The fire is
started at once. The gas possesses
great heating qualities, aud apartments
are warmed as quickly and as we'll by
it as by coal. Gas for Illuminating
purposes IS conducted into the house
the same as artificial gas is taken in.
AT 6rst the light wa. not brilliant and
steady. owing to Impurities. Processes
for refining it were invented, and now
the natural illuninator is unsurpassed
nv the finest manufactured gas. 1t is
so cheap that people seldom turn out
iheir lishts. II burns day and night in
stores, hotels, private houses aud
streets. Consumers pay by The month,
instead OF BY the thousand.
