"that the cost Is not In keeping with
the tocoroe derived. The evolution In
high calenders' has - been so great
- that' the common Inexpensive ones
that formerly were Bought after are
now passed by with scorn. A busi

that some little artistic feminine
touch has hidden the advertiser's
name and he is simply decorating
thtk homes with no Dosslblllty of re

"that unless the advertiser Invested

There is a
Difference
between the light afforded by an ordinary carbon
incandescent and the brilliancy of our new Tungsten
lamp. The latter has a metal filament (the tiny wire,
inside of the bulb) which radiates two and oneiialf
times as much light with same amount of electric
current. V t;":
A 40 Watt Tungsten Affords Twice the Light ,
of the 50-Watt carbon lamp now in general use and .
! cost onc-fif th less to burn. We recommend its use to
our customers as it more than cuts their light bill m
two, making electric light so inexpensive that no
home, however humble, and no store, however, small,
can afford to be without one. f .
