Thomas A. Edison has been searching for

Mr.. Jones invention can reduce the loss
from 30 10 90 per cent to eS per cent. the
result would be revolution In manufacture
such as has not been experienced since
the invention Of the steam engine.
Sulphate Of lead instead Of sulphate Of

substitution saves one costly step In the
process OF getting out the energy OF tho

Is consumed but coal and tho oxygen of
