The bell and carbide holder are so treated, and a useful addition is a funnel, which when not in use fits over the spring of the carbide holder and keeps off the strain of the bell. £2 2s. sent to Mr. Wm. Tylar, of Aston, will bring along a complete outfit for the production of the acetylene gas.

IJALESOWEN. October Gth, 1902. To the Iditor,
“Dear Srm,—Thanks for copy of Lantern Journal to hand, I think it would have been a pity for this useful journal to die out. I don’t think the lantern will be elbowed ont just yet. Some nine years ago [ ran a Jantern ina Church Mission Room for the season ; then 1 only lighted up for the address—next season for the whole of the service—hyimns, lessons, everything by lime-light. Last seasun was a record one, commencing Sunday, September Ist, 1901, and finishing Sunday, July 13th, 1902. Attendance cood from start to finish. { commenced again last month (September) and although the interval has been so short the hall has been crowded each Sunday evening. So far as I know no other places suffer loss of congregation, as the people who attend these services would probably go to no other place of worship. But many after attending for a time and getting used to the order of service find their way to church.
The Lantern Services were tried in the first place because although the place was well lighted, warm and cumfortable, “whatever means had heen tried before, failed to draw a congregation.
Some fev people have or fancy they have an objection to a lantern being uxed in a place of worship. To such I can only say, show us a better plan and we will adopt It.
Wishing your interesting and useful journal every success.
[ remain Sir, Yours respectfully, W. J. Borer.’

“DKAR Srp,—It is a long time since J wrote to you and gave you any account of my work and travels on this side ‘of the world. Since I wrote last J have travelled all through N.S.

Within a few days we shall be in the Hot Lake District, and in the midst of the Wonder Land of the World, but for years this country has heen overdone with picture shows of all kinds. When we leave New Zealand it is my
