W. J. Norton, an Englishman, has
invented what is alleged to lie the
cheapest light ever known, and yet “a
light as intense and as accurate iu its
illumination of colors as the sun ut
noomittv.” It is claimed that a five
hundred caudle power light of Um
kind in question can be run at thop
nominal cost of a half penny au hour.
The light consists of a peculiar tape
that is fed by a simple clockwork. In
point of intensity it is'not surpassed
by electricity, its light ia much Mofter
and fur easier to the eyes. It feeds
itself, requires neither pipe*, wire* nor
