GAS FOR YEARS GAS HAS SERVED WANGANUI. Throughout this long period the WANGANUI CITY GAS DEPARTMENT has made its reputation by remaining the best and most modern of all heating services. In recent years the wonderful advances in the appearance and efficiency of all kinds of GAS APPLIANCES, combined with the cheaper system of service to customers, have resulted in the remarkable popularity which Gas enjoys to-day. ' Whether it be for cooking or for all kinds of heating in the Home, the Hotel, the Hospital, the Restaurant, the Factory, or the Workshop, GAS HAS NO EQUAL. GAS IS ALWAYS RELIABLE. You can always depend on GAS. GAS IS SAFE. There are no dangers attendant on Gas as there are on other forms of power. That’s one of the reasons why the large majority prefer GAS. GAS IS REMARKABLY EEFICIENT. Research engineers have developed Gas appliances to give the maximum output with minimum waste. GAS IS THE QUICKEST FORM OF HEAT. It does not take time to accelerate up to peak heating. It gives full heat instantly—the moment you turn it on. GAS IS THE CHEAPEST HEAT AVAILABLE. Owing to gas appliances being perfected, they are much more economical than other heating apparatus. Only those with money to burn use any other fuel. GAS IS CLEANER THAN ANY OTHER FUEL. It leaves not the slightest atom of dust or soot or ash to soil home furnishings or create extra work. Gas is popular. Large numbers.of new gas appliances are being installed every week in WANGANUI’ because they are attractive, and because they are reliable, safe, efficient, quick, cheap and alone give finger, tip burner control. A housewife who spends a fair amount of time daily in her kitchen must sometimes wonder just of what the “fumes,” so called, of her gas stove consist. ‘‘Products of combustion” is the correct term, and if a woman has any idea that they are harmful she can abandon the idea. The products of combustion from a gas cooker are : —Water vapour, nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide. The first of these, water vapour, is essential to life. It is hardly fair to call it a fume. The second, nitrogen, is a very inert gas; it forms 79 per cent, of the air we breathe; by no stretch of the imagination could it be termed a fume. The third, oxygen, is essential to life. It is sometimes given to athletes to enable them to perform with exceptional vigour. No one would call oxygen a fume. Carbon dioxide is present in the air we breathe. Many drinks contain considerable quantities of carbon dioxide. Beer often holds in solution three to three and a-half times its volume of carbon dioxide, so that with a pint of beer one might drink more than three pints of this gas. Some lemonades and soda waters contain ten times their volume of carbon dioxide. Recently, Professor F. A. Eastaugh, Professor of Technology at Sydney University, took several samples from two gas ovens while the gas was burning. He made four separate analyses of the ‘‘products of combustion.” Neglecting the moisture, he found the volume of carbon dioxide ranging from 3.3 per cent, to 4.5 per cent. Oxygen ranged from 13.4 to 15.4, the balance of the gas being nitrogen. The four constituents of the products of combustion aYe harmless. They are, in fact, essential to plant and animal life. As the term “fumes” is usually associated with something injurious or offensive, it ■ should not be used in reference to cooking. X 1
