Dr. Hohcnnu siiid he had worked many years on the process and hud found that by applying very high vl brat ions to water he was nhlu U break t( up into its conslilucul elements of hydrogt-n anil oxygen. The hydrogen, said, could be used ns fuel gas the same way as coal gtis. The lirirlllim scientist' claimed that this could be done at such a low cost that It would mean tho end of coal as find. Me said his process was based on original re search work done by Sir Oliver Lodge.

Peoples H Electric Store ' 112-114 West Main Phone 12 From Jamaica to the tables of the world ' Century-oi.d methods produced a certain grade! of ginger in Jamaica. But this grade wasn't good enough for "Canada Dry." And so, "Canada Dry" went to Jamaica and offered prizes for ginger grown under modern methods of culti vation. The result was a new ginger of a higher, finer quality. That is the grade of ginger used in this fine old ginger ale. The other ingredients are of equal purity and high quality. They arc blended and balanced in an exact proportion. Great care is taken to be sure that these proportions never vary. The uniform carbonation of "Canada Dry" an important matter affecting flavor is assured by a secret method. The result is a ginger ale with a marvelous flavor . . . mellow . . . "try" . . . thirst quenching. Because "Canada Dry" docs not contain capsicum (red pepficr) it has no bite, no unpleasant after-effect. So distinctive is its flavor that you can tell it from all others, anywhere. CANADA n DRY1 Iter li. 8. 1'.i. on. the Qhumpagne of (.jiiiger tAer Dun I accept ) "V lubuittitei or, LSiSrA imitations.
