the brilliancy, steadiness or durability of the
lamp occurred. The method of regulating
the supply of electricity at the central station
was explained in detail, as was also the electric
motor ; the latter was made to pump water
and run a sewing machine with only as much
electricity as was necessary to give out an
illumination of the brilliancy of an ordinary
gas jet
INTERESTING EXPERIMENTS.
To illustrate, Mr. Edison simply attached
the wires of the motor to an electric lamp,
disconnecting the latter. The rapid changes
from light to power and from power back
again to light, attracted much attention and
elicited not a little admiration. The method
of producing the current, the mode of measurement
of the electricity consumed, and the
manner of connecting the wires and the other
incidental details were practically illustrated.
The simple method of prepariug the horseshoe
filament attracted much attention. At
one of the tables in the laboratory an assistrant
sat with a small punch in his hand punching
from little pieces of cardboard the little
horseshoes. Another assistant then placed
cmraM 1 of a time in nn irnn mnilld five inches
owvviai ww m wn?*v ?u mw - ?
square apd placed the latter in the furnace.
- At the expiration of a little more than an
hour, the mould was taken out and the carbonized
papers shown. At this stage they
are quite fragile, and it is only after being
subjected to the action of the electric current
that they become reasonably strong. The
vacuum pumps were kept working, and hundreds
witnessed the method of obtaining the
vacuum in the bulbs of the lamp. The wires
leading from the generators to the various
lamps were followed in all their connections.
The^ were ordinary copper wires of about
one-eighth of an inch in diameter.
REGULATING THE CURRENT.
The regulation of the current was carried
pr on in the lower part *of the laboratory, a
young man by the aid of a small wheel turning
off the current to any degree desired.
Attached to all the chandeliers, which are of
a pattern frequently used, were screws, by the
turning of which the light could be turned on
or off as readily as gas. The centre of attraction
during the exhibition was Edison
himself, who was attired in a rough suit of
working clothes. For hours he was surround
ed, first by one throng theu by another, Aud
he found it almost impossible to get away.
Many had come in the expectation of seeing
a dignified, elegantly dressed person, and
were much surprised to find him a simple
^ young man attired in the homeliest manner,
using for his explanations not high sounding,
technical terms, but the plainest and simplest
language. The skeptics were severe in their
cross-questioning, but to all their interroga
tories as to expense, amount of horse power
consumed, proposed method of working and
all other details, he gave prompt, simple aud
direct answers, which were readily understood
and always convincing. When argued with
that the gas companies could reduce the price
of gas much lower than it was at present
and make a profit, thus successfully competing
with the electric light, he referred to the
electric motor to be used in connection with
* his system, pointing out that even if gas and
electricity cost exactly the same to produce,
the electric motor could make a vast difference
in favor of electricity, insomuch as the plan of
the later would be kept in use nearly all day
and night?in the day-time furnishing power,
in the night time furnishing illuminationwhile
the gas was serviceable for only four or
five hours every night, being idle throughout
the day; but he insisted that without the electric
motor, gas could not be produced nearly
as cheap as electricity under any circumstances.
Among the visitors present were several
gas company officials aud electricians, who
subjected the system to a close examination,
Edison ordering every facility to be given
* them for making all the tests they required.
All the.'visitors seemed satisfied . that Edison
had actually solved the problem of practical
household illumination by electricity.

A NEW YEAR'S PARAGRAPH.
"SPEAK good of the dead" is an old adage,
full of charity to those who have "crossed the
River" and whose voices cannot be heard in their
own defence. The strict observance of this
adage, however, would seal the lips and paralyze
the pen of the Historian, and the major part of
the lives of many of the illustrious as well as the
obscure who have "gone before" would never be
written or spoken. 1879 is in the last throes of
dissolution, and ere this meets the eye of many
of the "dear readers" of the York Drug Store
Paragraphs, it will have "shuffled off its mortal
coil" and lie in the cold embrace of the King of
Terrors.
How shall we speak of this departed year?
In justice, we would Bay with the Irishman,
<1 11 1.1 i- ?* ?> Tf has haan nssentiallv a
"SII1I&1 1 UIUUIU HI l?. * ?
year of booms and extremes, many articles of
commerce bavins touched the highest and lowest
points in price, that they have done in the last
decade. In the main, it has been a successful
year to all classes, and perhaps we could not
wish?keeping in the bounds of moderation and
probability?the friends and patrons who have
sustained and stood by us in all the years that
we have been Proprietor of the York Drugstore,
better than many returns of the prosperity of
the past year.
In the homes of some of our friends sorrow
has brooded, and bereavement, like a pall, shut
out the sunlight of Hope and Joy for a season.
To all those we offer j)ur heartfelt sympathy,
trusting that brighter skies may be in store for
them in the future. n
Soliciting from our friends and the public generally,
a continuance of the pleasant business relations
and intercourse of the'past, I am very
respectfully, JNO. 0. KUYKENDAL.
