V. E. Campbell, Inventor of the
Campbell automatic safety gas cut
off, Is again in the city, and mnny
people who are interested In me
chanical contrivances, nro enjoying
an acquaintance with him. It is un
doubtedly a fact that he hns one of
the most attractive Inventions of the
age. His contrivance seems to bo
simple, and yet It meets a. need that
hns been keenly nparent ever since
tho use of gas 'as an Illuminating
substance has been beforo tho pub
lic. His Invention makes It impos
sible for gns to pass through a Jot
when1 It Is not burning, hence if i
light is accidentally extinguished,
blown out or goes out from tempor
ary difficulty with the gas plant, tho
flow of gas Is sure to bo cut oft.
Thus it not only prevents gna from
escaping, but in mnny instance?
saves. Thoro are thousands of cases
of asphyxiation every year, and this
Invention will forever put a Btop to
it. Even if a person wishes to sul
cldo by tho gas routo It would be Im
possible with this fixture on the
light. Tho invention is also very
valuable on a gas or gasolino stove.
In most cities tho lntter aro entirely
prohibited, but with this automatic
.cut-off they nro just ns snfo as nny
kind of a stove.
Mr. Campbell has made headquar
ters at the Willamette and at Fra
ser's plumbing establishment. It Ih
suggested by some enthusiasts who
havo become familiar with tho pat
ent that Mr. Campbell sell some
stock In his company while in Salem,
and It is now understood that a lim
ited quantity will bo placed at thu
disposal of Salem parties. It would
be well for anyono Interested In such
mattors to cotnmunlcato with Mr.
Eraser or with Mr. Campbell hlm
solf. Tho following testimonials speak
for themselves:

Chief Sanitary Inspector.
T. J. FARRELL,
Chief Plumbing Inspector.
F. H. Lauzon, electrician for tho
board of public works at Tacoma,
says:
"In adding my opinion to the
mnny others expresoed ns to the
morlts of tho Campbell Automatic
Safety Cut-off, I wish to state that
I havo examined tho device as ap
plied to gas jots and gasolino stoves,
and do not hestltnte Jn giving ray
unqualified endorsement, ns I con
sider this tho most perfect device
that has como under my observation
nnd I venture tho opinion that when
theso cut-offs nro manufactured It
will In ft comparatively short time
come Into unlversnl use, as tho use
of It will practlcnlly eliminate the
dangers Incurred In the use of either
gas or gasolino.
M. C. Bingham, master mechanic,
at 421 Skldmoro streets, Portland,
has this to say:
"My long experience as an active
constructor of mechanical devices,
closo application of mechanlcnl prin
ciples and my never ceasing effort
to know how to do things, has well
fitted me to Judge of this device, and
I must say that the Campbell Auto
matic Cut-off is tho most perfect
and complete piece of mechanism It
has been my pleasure to examine.
"It Is perfoct in Us working, ab
solutely automatic In its movement,
durable In Us construction and as
sensitive In its principles of opera
tion as seems possible for human In
telligence to construct thought and
matter.
"I will say in conclusion thnt It
is my Judgment that no one will
make a mistake by investing in the
capital stock of Campbell's Auto
matic Safety Gas Burner company,
for I bellevo it will b6 a wise and
prudent Investment."
E. Lyons, manager of the North
ern Pacific Terminals company, at
Portland, has this to say:
"I havo examined and tested the
automatic safety gas burner and find
It to be far beyond what It was rep
resented. It certainly looks good to
me."
