GIVE US LIGHT.
This has been the cry of the ages from time immemorialj and the torch, oil, gas, electricity, and other ttatural and manufactured products have contributed their quota to the necessity for light, Parafßne, and the numerous products of petroleum are the stocks relied' upon in the country, and these, with the aid of improved central draught lamps, yield a splendid light. Bad oil will smother the best lamps in the world; will explode at irregular intervals, and supplant happy homesteads with black and murky ruins. Reliable as are the best brands of highly refined kerosene —Excelsior, Zurlite, Meteor, and. Waterlily to wife, Luxene outshines them all and has proved itself the purest and most trustworthy illurainant. It has been reduced in price by the recent fall in freight and now sells at twopence per gallon over the price of ordinary Waterwhite oil. Svery farmer-valuing absolute safety with perfect light over cheapness with attendant risks should use Luxene only. |j
