In a pamphlet upon Light and Heat, pub- lished by R. B. Taver, A. M., he says ; “The cost of Gas as compared with other illumi. ants is much more eccnomical when rightly used, than many suppose. From experiments made for this purpose, the following results have been obtained. They were made by burning samples ot Devoe’s Brilliant Oil and ordinary Oils, and testing their illuminating power, It was found that Coal Gas costing one cent at $3 per thousand feet, gave a light equal to 18 candles, while Devoe’s Brilliant Oil consuming 27.4 grammes Cost ing half a cent, gave a light +qaal to 9 candles, “A good Argand or Johusou’s Burver, the Burner's used in the last experiment, will therefore give the light of 2 ordinary Oil Burners in direct comparison, at no greater expense in the cas of the finer and safer grades of Oil.
