To make Cheap Gas-light for
Country Homes

out extra charge which used any one Of these 70
Acetyene Generators it had found safe, and effective
just it permitted houses to be piped for City Cas-
or wired for Electricity, under proper conditions
Now, the Insurance Companies ought to know
whether not these 70 different makes of Aceylene
Generators absolutely Safe TO use.
Because, they have to pay the bills if Fire or Ex-
posion occurs. from any one OF the Acetylene Gener-
ators they authorize
And, here's proof Of their good judgment
Though there are now Two Million people using
Acctyene Light in America there have only been four
Fires from it in year. against S8o5 Fires from
Kerosene and Gasoline
There have also been 46o1 Fires from Electricity,
1907 Fires from City Gas, and $40 Fires from Candies
Besides these there have been 20 Fires from the
Suns rays, But,--onIy four Fires from Acetylene
That shows how careful the Insurance Board was
in its examination Of Acetylene Generators and in
permitting only the 70 makes that were above
pcior, out Of the 600 experiments that were once
the market.
Well,--the boom in Acetyene Lighting made losser
prices possible the material it is derived FROM viz,
Calcium Carbide material that looks like Granite
Today, Acetylene Light is full third cheaper than
Kerosene Light or Gasoline Light, per Candle Power.
1t is not than holt the price Of Electric Light,
nor three foHrths that of City Gas.
If can't PyOve these statements TO your full salts
faction my name is not "Acetyene Jones'"
But Acetylene is more than the safest and cheapest
Il is also the Vhiiest Light-the nearest to natural
Sunlight in health-giving Blue and Violet rays and
because or THIS, with It's freedom from fhCkeT
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
ray of Sunlight could reach them It made them grow
taoce fast similar plants that had only the Sum
light of daytime, viz, half the time.
That was proven BY Cornell University in a three
months experiment made this very year.
Now, I've saved up for the last point inn
portant to you than all the others about Acetyene
Light
1t consumes only one-f0uyth as much Of the vital
Oxygen from the Air Of Living rooms or bedrooms,
as either Kerosene or City Gas-Lght consumes
That's tremendous difference in lifetime, mark
you-three-fourths Of a difference
Because,--OrygeH 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
A "a Candle-Power Acetylene Light costs you only
tzfo-ffthS Of cent per hour
That's about $5.85 per year, if burned every night
in the year for four steady hours.
A Kerosene Lamp OF equal capacity would cost you
a third more viz: Hyee-fftkS of cent per hour for
Kerosene alone, or $875 per year.
That's exclusive Of broken lamp chmneys, new
wicks, and the everlasting drudgery and danger Of
cleaning filling and trimming daily.
l want to broVe these figures to you, Reader II you
are a house-owner or storekeeper.
Tell me how many rooms you've got and III tell you
what it will cost light them with brilliant, beautiful
Sanitary eye-saving Acetylene
