Increased Demand for Light.

The development of any new illu-
minating process appears not to affect
the demand for light in other forms.
The electric light, both arc and in
candescent, has been added to gas
rather than substituted for it. More
gas has been burned. in proportion to
the population of American cities,
since Brush and Edison made their
discoveries than formerly. The use
of oil for lamps increases. notwith-
standing gas, electricity, acetylene gas
and devices such as the incandescent
burner, which produce far more light
