MEN OF BUSINESS RECOGNIZE
ADVANTAGES OF ACETYLENE.
Famous Summer Hotel, the Grand
Union of Saratoga, Has Installed
This Best of All Artificial Lights
Means Increased Comfort and
Health.

Saratoga, June 27.-The very name.
Saratoga" brings to every mind
health giving springs. unsurpassed
hotels and beautiful drives. 1t
has been for many years the
Mecca for all who admire nature,
enjoy good living. and are searching
for health. or are simply taking va
cation.
The Grand Union. the largest sum-
mer hotel in the United States, set
among green trees with its long wings
enclosing a court with fountains and
flowers, grass and trees, music and
light, is throughout the season throng-
ed with guests. With the progressive
spirit always shown by its manage
ment, the Grand Union has again add
ed to its attractiveness by introduc-
ing acetylene gas to make still more
brilliant the evening hours. The ge-
nial proprietors believe in furnishing
their guests with the best of every
thing, and now, after investigating
and finding that Artificial Sunlight
can be had, they have installed COM
plete acetylene gas plant to produce
1t, and have connected upwards of six
thousand acetylene burners in and
about the house and grounds to this
little gas plant.
Like many discoveries of recent
years, which are coming into popular
favor, acetylene. one of the most re-
cent, is very simply produced. 1t is
adapted for use wherever artificial
light is needed and the necessary ap-
paratus can be understood and oper-
ated by anyone.
The generator in which Acetylene
is produced by the automatic contact of
carbide and water might be termed a
gas plant. as it performs all of the func-
tions of a city gas plant. The acct
ylene generator can be purchased for
few dollars and in any size. from
one adapted to furnish acetylene to
ten or dozen burners for cottage.
up to the large but still simple ma
chine such as is now furnishing
Acetylene for six thousand burners
in the Grand Union.
Outside OF large cities the use of
Acetylene Is quite common. The
owner of the country home now de-
mands running water. gas and other
conveniences which few years ago
were considered as luxuries. and
acetylene gas has met his require
ments, and gives him better and
cheaper light than is ordinarily fur
nished in cities.
1t Is well known that rooms lighted
with Acetylene are more comfortable,
because cooler. and more healthful be-
cause the air Is not vitiated.

What business Men Want.

Colorado Springs, Colo. June "a
A resolution adopted by the Colorado
State Commercial Association inaugur-
ates movement for THE Western I'M
migration Congress-" to secure coop
erative movement by the western
states, points out that residents OF the
East and the better class of European
countries should be directed to the
West and provides that this assoc.a-
tion authorizes the president and sec
retary to issue invitations to the gov
ernors of such western states as may
be considered properly interested IN
this movement to officially appoint not
less than five representative delegates
from each of these states TO attend
congress which shall be called the
Western immigration Congress, and
which shall discuss ways and means
for the perpetuation of such a CON
gress and the carrying out of its poll
cies." Each representative CONNER
cial body in the West will also be re-
quested to send not less than Two dele-
gates to this congress.
Among other important resolutions
passed was one launching movement
for a permanent exhibit of the pro
ducts of the entire state, to be located
in Denver, If possible in the Capitol
building, and for which the Legislature
will be asked to help.
The Legislature is urged to liquidate
all Indebtedness properly issued by
state officials and the latter, it is urged,
should be summarily dealt with should
the issue be improper
It is urged that a second state nor
NAL school be established in the south
western portion of Colorado; the ag-
economical department of the State Ag'
ricultural College is especially com.
mended and it is urged that a pupil
sufficiently qualified be sent to Califor'
mia each year to study under Luther
Burbank, the eminent agriculturist.

RUBBER FACTORY.
About Ready for Operation at suena
Vista.

Denver, June PA Republican spe-
cial from Buena Vista says: Much has
been said about the Colorado rubber
plant. but it has been left for the Amer
lean Production Company to construct
the first works at Buena Vista for the
extraction of the gum from the weed
upon a commercial scale. This plant
is now nearing completion in the west
ern part of this city and will be in op'
GRAFTON by July list.
The improvements consist OF main
building iOx125 feet, in which the rub
ber extracting machinery Is being
placed, and a power house 4OXoO feet-
Power is furnished by two boilers OF
200-horse power capacity througn
15O-horse power Corliss engine. The
plant is so constructed that 1t can be
easily added to as the quantity of the
root is furnished, and 1t is thought the
capacity will be soon doubled. The
plant will start with an initial capacity
of fifteen tons every twenty-four hours
and in the neighborhood of $50 persons
will be employed, the most of whom
will be pickers.
Forty dollars ton will be paid for
the root delivered at the works, ana
many people already are in the heid
gathering the weed. Beyond the terri
tory contiguous to the plant peopie are
also making contracts for the shipment
of the plant to the works here. Those
who have tried picking it say that good
wages may be made at the price paid
and no trouble is anticipated by the
management in obtaining enough OF
the root to keep the machines running.
Mr.. A. w. bravo made this state
ment to-day: 1.-THE American Produc-
ton Company, a corporation of New
Jersey, is erecting works for the ex-
traction of crude rubber from the
plant known in Colorado as the rubber
weed, and the company expects to be-
gin operations by July 1st. Our com
pany is interested in the manufacture
of insulated wire, secret process in
which. after two years experiment
with this rubber, We found could be
used to advantage by us. The claim
that this rubber can be used in all
kinds of rubber goods is unfounded. 1t
can never take the place of Para, Ben
guela, African or Indian rubber on ac'
count of its lack of caoutchouc."
No patents have been obtained
either on the machines or the process,
the company depending entirely upon
secrecy for the protection OF their
process. The entire plant Is sur
rounded by tight board fence eight
feet high.

Growth Of New York.

New York claims that by 1910 1t
will have passed London in population
and will be the largest city in the
world. 1t is believed that the state
census being taken at present will
show that the city has passed the
1900, 900 mark. In 1901 London had a
population of 4.536.541. while in 1900
New York had 3,427,2 ,2O2 people, not
counting the population of Jersey City
and the other populous suburbs on the
New Jersey side. 1t would surprise
nobody, except possibly the Londoners,
if long before 1910 New York had be-
come the largest city in the world.

WHY THEY ARE HAPPY
TWO NOTABLE REOOVERIEs FROM
EXTREME DEBILITY.
Husbands Strength Had Been Waning for
Three Years, Wife n Sufferer from
Female Weakness.

"My strength had dwindled so that
couldn't apply myself to my business
with any snap but was tired and listless
all the time, said Mr.. Goldstein.
90 went to bed completely used up by
my day s work, and when 1 got up in
the morning / didn t feel rested u bit 1
had awful headaches too, and my kid
neys got out of order and caused me to
have severe pains in the back At one
time l became so feeble that could not
stir from bed for three weeks.'
Mr. Goldsteiu is u young man and had
then but recently established home of
his own. His anxieties were increased
by the fact that his wife was far from
being robust. Mrs. Goldstein says:
"For two years had been ill most of
the time. Sometimes L was confined to
bed for weeks in succession under ply
sician S care. l had headaches, kidney
trouble, pain about the heart and many
more uncomfortable symptoms con-
nected with that weakness to which my
sex is peculiarly subject"
Trouble had invaded this household
and settled i'll it in just the years that
ought to be the very hnppiest. Physicians
could not tell them how to get rid of it,
IL was utterly discouraged, said Mr..
Goldstein. "Then the urgency of some
friends led me to try blood and nerve
remedy which was said to be wonder
fully successful. Within II month there
were eunmistakable signs of improvement
in my condition, and within year /
was completely well. Through the use
of DIR. Williams Pink Pills 1 have now
as good health as ever had in my life. {"
Mrs. Goldstein adds 1.-THE wonderful
effect that DIR. Williams Pink Pills had
in the case of my husband led me to try
them and they helped me even more
quickly than they did him. One box
made me decidedly better and few
months treatment cured me-"
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are the best
tonic and regulator, they make pure,
rich blood and when there is general
weakness and disorder that is what the
system needs. Mr.. aud Mrs. H. Goldstein
live at 3S Cove street. East Boston, Mass
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
druggists everywhere.
