TO make Cheap Gas-light for
Country Homes

out extra charge. which used any one Of these 70
Aceylene Generators it had found safe and effective
just it permitted houses to be piped tor City Gas,
or wired for Electricity, under proper conditions;
Now, the Insurance Companies ought to know
whether or not these 70 different makes OF Acetyene
Generators were absolutely Safe to use.
Because, they have to pay the bills, If Fire or Ex-
plosion occurs from any of the Acetyene Oener-
ators they authorize.
And here's proof of their good judgment.
Though there Two Million people using
Acetyene Light in America, there have only been four
Fires from it in year, against SSo5 Fires from
Kerosene and Gasoline.
There have also been 46o1 Fires from Electricity,
1907 Fires from City Gas, and $40 Fires from Candles
Besides these there have been 20 Fires from the
Suns rays But,-only four Fires from Acetyene.
That shows how careful the Insurance Board was
in its examination of Acetylene Generators, and in
permitting" only the 70 makes that dbove
feion. out of the COO experiments that were once on
the market.
Well,-the boom in Acetyene Lighting made io1cer
prices possible on the material it is derived FROM viz
Calcium Carbide material that looks like Granite
but acts like Magic
Today, AcetyIene Light is a full third cheaper than
Kerosene Light, or Gasoline Light per Candle Power
1t is not more than half the price of Electric Light
nor three fowthS that of City Gas.
If can't prove these statements to your full salts
faction my name is not "Acetylene Jones"
But AceVlene is more than the safest and cheapest
1t is also the Whiiest Ligh-the nearest to natural
Sunlight in health-gvin Blue and Violet rays and
because of this with its freedom from flicker it is
the easiest of all Artificial Light on the Eyes
1t is much like real Sunlight that 1t has made
plants grow "a hours per day in dark cellars where no
ray of Sunlight could reach them. 1t made them grow
fzVice fast similar plants that had only the Sum
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 up for the last point more inn
portant to you than all the others about Aceylene
Light 80,
1t consumes only one fourth much OF the vital
Oxygen from the Air of Living rooms or bedrooms
as either Kerosene or City Gas-Light consumes
That's tremendous difference in lifetime mark
you-three- fourths of difference.
Becausc-Oxygen is Life
And 1T of Oxygen stolen from the lungs OF
Women. Children and Men, through Lighting is
loss that can never be made good again
A "a Cande-Power Acetylene Light costs you only
tyo-ffths of cent per hour.
That's about $585 per year,9i BUM every'nishc
in the year, for four steady horrs.
A Kerosene Lamp of equal capacity would cost you
a third more, viz. Myec-ffhS of cent per hour for
Kerosene alone, or $8.75 per year.
That's exclusive of broken lamp chimneys, new
wcks and the everlasting drudgery and danger of
cleaning, filling and trimming daily.
