It is a combination of acetylene n and oil vapor, and it finds its in autogenous yielding, where a high heat is required. It is said to have several advantages over the oxyacetylene gas now widely used for the purpose, among them being a smaller explosive range. A portable apparatus for generating the gas has .been perfected by tluTdiscoverer. The generator is charged with alternate layers of calcium carbide and sawdust soaked in oil. Presumably the action of water on the carbide is used to free acetylene and the acetylene is used as a heating agent to vaporize the oil. - Roe-liiv- appli-ratio- ITiads why it would be provable for you to advertise in it If you want a job If you want If you want to ha's somebody to sell something If you want to buy something If you want to rent your house If you want to sell your house If you want to sell year farm If you want to buy property If there is anything that you want the quickest and best way to supply that want is by placing an advertisement in this paper MOTHER ON THE JOB. that I am soon to to Mr. Masher? engaged that so?

BLINDED IN WAR They Are Happier and Mora Fortunate Than Those Who Have Lost Arms or Legs, It Is Claimed. It has been frequently stated that the soldiers who have lost their afght in the world war are happier than those who have lost legs or arms or have been otherwise maimed, remarked Capt. H. A. Jones, a member of a Canadian regiment, who recently was invalided home, according to the Washington Post. I found that this was true, for in the two months I Bpent in the hospitals of England I observed closely the bearing and conduct of the blinded soldiers. The feeling of helplessness that overwhelms a strong, healthy, newly blind man is incredibly relieved when he finds that the one who is to instruct him in some profitable employment is suffering from the same handicap as himself. Men who are prepared to argue and disagree with the methods of a sighted instructor follow with keenness and appreciation those instructors who are themselves blind. I venture to say that of all the soldiers who have been seriously wounded in the war and must be handicapped the rest of their lives the blind will be far more independent and able to take care of themselves than those otherwise maimed. So many industries of profit are taught the blind soldiers and they apply themselves so assiduously that they become more proficient in what ever occupation they take up than a legless or armless soldier could possibly become in anything he elected to follow.
