The most Beautiful Usbt.
We find in lst weeks Shelby Auro.
, very pertinently, the following
which e reproduce entire.
A new illuminant is now giving-a
beautiful, brilliant and white -flame,
that promises to rival Welsbach gas,
and almost make the incandescent
lights pale their ineffectual tires. - This
new claimant for public patronage is
liquefied acetylene, a new ga that i
shedding- light upon the problem of
home and street illumination. The
discovery of electric light was won
derful and this new gas, Irilliant burn
ing acetylene, promises to do wonders
and to be a rival to electric lights, for
its brilliancy is only surpassed by its
economy.
Under the Wilson process it is claim
ed that this new illuminant e u be
manufactured much cheaper than gas
or electric light.
This is said to be the discovery of
Prof. P. L. Wilson, of Spray, N. C.
"While experimenting to reduce cer
tain refractory compounds of alum
inum and calcium by the agency of
his electric furnace, he found that
water and limestone and coal dust
produced this new gas and the dis
covery startled him." The New York
Herald says:
An illuminating gas to vie with
electricity and completely eclipse the
present coal gas is eaid to be about to
come into use. Ii is also i-aid that gas
bills will then be only at the rate of
live cents a thousand cubic feet.
Not alone has this discovery of
acetylene elements a commercial ad
vantage, but already chemists have
begun to speculate on it as a means of
revealing the mysteries of the forma
tion of earth and the planets, aud the
composition of the sun. August Eimer,
at the last meeting of the Society -of
Chemical Industry, in this city, ad
vanced the theory that acetylene gas
produces those remarkable solar waves
of flame that astronomers observe
protuding great distances from the
orb into space.
The chemists of the big gas com
panies in New York and Boston are
looking into the gas as a means of in
creasing the power of" coal gas now
used. In a liquid form it burns in
lamps, only no wicks are necessary,
the liquid turning to gas aud igniting
as soon as it rises in the tjibe.
Woman-hood
has its own special medicine in Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. And
every woman who is 'Tun-down'' or
overworked, every woman who suffers
from any 4 'female complaint" or weak
ness, needs just that remedy. With
it, every disturbance irregularity, and
derangement can b permanently
cured.
It's an invigorating, restorative
tonic, a Soothing and strengthening
nervine, and the only medicine for
woman whichonce used, is always in
favor. In periodical pains, displace,
ments, weak liack, bearing-down sen
sations, and every kindred ailment, it
is specific.
