To make Cheap Gas-light for
Country Homes

out extra charge which used any one OF these 10
Aeetyene Generators it had found safe and effective.
just as permitted houses 10 be pped for City Gas,
or wired for Electricity, under proper conditions.
Now, the Insurance Companies osghi TO know
whether not these 10 different makes OF Acetylene
Generators absolutely Safe 10
Because, they have to pay the bills, IL Fire or Ex
poson occurs from any one OF the Acctylene Gener-
And, here's proof Of their good judgment
Though there Two Million people using
Acetlcne Light in America there have only been four
FIRES from It IN one year, against SSo5 Fires from
Kerosene and Gasoline
There have also been 4ooI Fires from Electricity.
1907 Fires from City Cas- and $40 Fires from Candles
Besides these there have been 70 Fires from the
Suns rays But,-onH fom Fires from Accylene
That shows how careful the Insurance Board was
in ITS examination OF Acetylcne Generators, and in
permitting only the 20 makes that were above sHs-
tieion, out OF the GOO experiments that were on
the market.
Well.-the boom in Acetylene Lighting made iotuer
prices possible the material Il is derived FROM viz.
Calcium Carbide material that looks like Granite
but acts like Magic.
To-day, Aeeplenc Light is full third cheaper than
Kerosene Light Gasoline Light. per Candle Power.
1t is rot more than half the price of Electric Light
Hrcc-fo WthS that OF City Gas.
II can't frosr these statements 10 your foil salts
faction my name is not "ACeylene Jones'
But Acetycne is more than the safest and cheapest
Light OF the year 1905.
II is also the IYhcsf Lghi-ihe nearest 70 natural
Sunlight in heah-givng Blue and Violet rays, and
because OF this with It's freedom from flicker, it is
the easiest Of all Artificial Light on the Eyes.
!
plants grow y hours per day in dark cellars where
ray of Sunlight could reach them II made them grow
iec as fast as similar plants that had only the Sun
light Of daytime viz, half the time
That proven by Cornell University III a three
months experiment made this very year.
Now. I've saved Up for the last point more inn
portant TO you than all the others about Aeeylene
Light
II consumes only one fourth as much Of the vital
Oryren from the Air Of Living rooms bedrooms
as either Kerosene City Gas-light consumes.
That's tremendous difference in lifetime, mark
you-threc-fourths of difference
Becausc-Orygcu IS Life
And every bit OF Oxygen stolen from tho lungs of
Women, Children and Men, through Lighting, IS a
loss that can never be made good again.
A q Candc-Power Acctylcnc Light costs you only
sc0-ffhS Of a cent per hour
That's about $sSs per year, il burned every night
in the year for four steady hours.
A Kerosene Lamp Of equal capacity would cost you
third more, viz three fffhS OF cent per hour for
Kerosene alone or $Sz5 per year
That's exclusive Of broken lamp ohimneys, new
wieks. and the everlasting drudgery and danger OF
cleaning filling and trimming daily
