To make Cheap Gas-light for
Country Homes

.,, ,.,r, CHARGE which used any one of these 10
Acetyene Generators 1t had found Saie' anu eneefVe
;rs, as il permitted houses to be pped lot CiV SsS,
or wired for Electricity, under proper condtons;
Now the Insurance Companies onghf to know
whether not these 70 different makes Oh Aee'e"e
Generators were absolutely Safe to use,
Because they have to pay the bis u rire Q. EN-
stors they authorize ,.s.
Though there are now Two Million people as'ns
Acetyene Light in America there have only been fo~
Fires from IN one year, against o0o9 fh'S "
There have also been 46or Fires from Electricity,
1907 Fires from City Gas ara so fifeS from oano,es G
Suns rays, But--ony four Fires from Acstyiene.
That shows how careful the Insurance Board was
in ;ts examination of Acctyene Generators, and ~
"nerm;,ting" only the 70 makes that were oboue sss
beion out of the COO experiments that were once on
the market
Well-the .yom in Acetylene Lighting made 'ouer
,r;css possible on the material it is derived from, viz,
Calcium Carbide. material that looks like Oranae
but acts like Magic. \.
Today. Acetycne Light is full third cheaper than
Kerosene Light, Gasoline Light per Candle Power
It's not more than hot the price OF Electric L'Sht'
ror three fosyths that of City Gas -
If can't brove these statements to your fuii sats-
faction my name is not "Acetylene Jones"
But Acetylenc is than the safest and eheoteS'
II is also the Whitcsf Light-he nearest to natural
Sunlight in health giving Blue nd Violet rays, and
because of this with its freedom from flicker, 1t is
the easiest of all Artificial Light on the Eyes.
1t is so much like real Sunlight that It has made
plants grow "a hours per day in dark cellars where no
raw of Sunlight could reach them. II made them grow
isCice Us fast similar plants that had only the Sun
light of daytime, viz. half the time.
That was proven by Cornell University in three
months experiment made this very year.
Now I've saved mp for the last point more i'm
portant you than all the others about Acetylene
Light 80 a.
1t consumes only ono fourth much of the vital
Orvgcn from the Air of Living rooms or bedrooms,
as either Kerosene or City Gas-Lght consumes.
That's tremendous difference III lifetime mark
you--three- -fourhs of difference.
Becausc,--OrygcH is Life.
And every bit OF Oxygen stolen from the lungs of
Women Children and Men, through Lighting IS
loss that can never be made good again.
q Candle Power Acetylene Light costs you only
fsoo-ffihs of a cent per hour
That's about $5S5 ner year, If burned every night
in the year for four steady hours.
Kerosene Lamp OF equal capacity would cost you
a third more viz. HrceffthS OF a cent per hour fer
Kerosene alone or $S75 per year.
That's exclusive of broken lamp chimneys new
wcls and the everlasting drudgcry and danger CT
cleaning, filling and trimming daily.
