THE WAIL OF THE TUNGSTEN A frugile Utile Tungsten lump was ljoinir smijjly pnckud at lliu lamp works, aijtl in a little box of her own. then into another box, and carried by the Kinn-shoed hhippitiK 'lerk to the train. She rode and rode, coming at lnat to her journey's end, and was not hurled from the car, like a common trunk, but gently placed on a truck. Everyone who spied the label "Tuiu; steu" on the box looked tip with a beatific smile, like St. Cecelia at the piano. Byaud by an expresymnn, hIio had heard they were such un couth men picked her up jtingurly and took her to i store. There thev unswathed her, and the dapper clerk, said, "Why, there's a Tungsten," and quickly put her into an ''any-old-socket"" on an old time fixture, and lo and behold, ahe shone forth in a blazo of glory like uu Easter crea tion. How loud they sang the praifcos of Tungsten 1 The proprietor was overheard. 'to say that if the current saving kept up, instead of havinf n bill to pay, the lighting compan would bo owing him money. Now 1 happened that in the same train thci was another box containing nnot be little Tungsten, somewhat opinion ntcd, who had heard of the suffra gist ticket, womci'u rights, and th "squnre deal," and was going to go it. When they unpacked her am edged over to the flrop cord, she sai "Hold! it is not enough ' that yoi ndmlre' mo; I would be cherished n well. I am healthy but delicate. CV mo a ioached egg if you like, but want n piece of toast to sit on. 1 "I pine for company and seek m. affinity, a very proper relfcctor--that we may revel in each othcr glory, the while giving you more ra dicnec; for while I am but '.VI will this reflector on, I will look like TiO." ' The- store-keopcr stood back am mused: "There is much reason fo her caying "and right away startei for the electricity shop to spent some money when the bold litth Tungsten arrested his arm, .sayin "Stay, I would speech witho the further. This glad raiment that I ask of thee is for mine good, 4hat 1 may servo thee the better. Thou shelterest thy horsu that ho may do more work for thee, and even so it is with me. "I fancy thy generosity so much that I am willing to be hung up high above tho heads of the throng on whom I will shed lustrous sunbeams, it tul not keep out of their vision.'" "Rut why should I hang thee up," mused tho calico-cutter. " "'Tis fate: 1 must bo so installed," rejoined the Tungsten. "It is do decreed 1" "For iheo I will make every sac rifice, aud hang with my foot dov.T forovor more." "Rut," sorrowful!) said the merchant, for this Tiingster so nppoalod to him, "That means a fixture." "Quite so," quoth thf Tungsten. "Surely the goodness o! thy heart io not bounden by thy purse strings' Get tlico hence unto n Tuiigstolior agency, and under thy arm thou canst carry a Foldiup Timgstoiler for which I yearn, aud with which I can be forever happy One with 'link suspension, aud when my fancy runs toward outdoor diver sion, I will think of tho (Golf) links above me. And I desire nn nutivi brator, which will break the jar, ever as thy rubber heels relievo the strain on thy spine. Thou cans) take three or four more of my kind and put them in tho same fixluro, which will givo an abundanco of light, and dispel the gloom round about over much area. "For light is life and ho who 'im unrta light to another, has not, there fore, less light, but walks by n number of torches instead of one." The goood store-keep marveled at th wisdom of tho loquacious Tung sten but went forth and did her bid ding, and put in Tungstoliers, com plete, thereby transforming his store into c place of wondrous beauty. Their reflection is now radiated in the joy of his countenance, and he rejoices in doing what tho Tungsten J old him to do. Tho moral of which is, that the Lobster is tho Wise Guy after all. And if you givo tho Tungsten a fair chance, and use it as it should be used, with uropor reflectors and in a properly constructed Tnngslolier fix ture, great blessings (and savings) nro in store for you. You can quiot ly read the "Charge of tho Light Rri gade" while your rival torc-kcept!r sings tho "Song of Six-Pence." Call uo up and Wo will be glad to explain fully the best methods of cutting ex penses in lighting. THE HOGUE RIVER ELECTRIC CO. YOUNG MAN KILLED IN AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT LOS ANGELES, Cnl., Jan. 121.
