Acting on the theory that "testing is proving," we will send any responsible 



f)erson, on certain very easy conditions, one of our three-horse-power gas or gaso- 

 ine engines on 10 days' test trial. 



This engine is no experiment, but has been proved by actual use to do any work 

 (where the rated amount of power is required) in the most practical, reliable, safe, 

 and economical way. 



This engine is of the four-cycle type. While the engine is up to the normal speed 

 the exhaust valve is held open, allowing free circulation of fresh air in the cylinder. 

 The igniter and intake valve are at rest, therefore not using gasoline or batteries. 



Our igniter and mixer are of the most simple and reliable character. The gaso- 

 line is always properly vaporized and the igniter point never comes together unless 

 a spark is required. 



THese are points of Economy Very Important to tHe User 



The fly-ball type of governor is used, which automatically controls the exhaust, 

 igniter, and gasoline, also allows the speed to be changed from 100 to 600 revolutions 

 per minute while the engine is in motion — a very superior feature. 



Lion Gas and Gasoline Engines are Simplicity Simpli^ed 



They are used for all purposes? where power is required — private electric lighting 

 plants, small factories, printing-offices; farm machinery, such as cream-separators, 

 feed-grinders, corn-shellers, wood-sawing machines, bee-hive making, power honey- 

 extractors, and a thousand and one other purposes that can not be mentioned here.
