No only electricity but electricity de veloped and made obedient by the minds of men. Behind your switcli from your home to power houses in distant mountains reaches the far-flung and efficient organization of your power company. Your power company provides an abundant and never-failing supply of electricity but how well this electricity serves you depends largely upon the quality and completeness of your electrical installa- tion. Since this in turn depends upon the electrical contractor who wires your home, he should be chosen carefully. That's why we advise, "Before you build or buy, insist on "Check" Seal electrical wiring."

Ruthless, terrible and cruel as the Vikings were, no man broke this pledge without forfeiting his honor and the friendship of every true man. Today modern business forms friends in every corner of the world through the pledge of the printed word. Advertisements are pledges made especially for you ... . pledges that advertised goods you buy are exactly as claimed. No sane business man would advertise an un worthy product. Nothing could bring ruin more quickly. For when a product is advertised, it in--vites the criticism of millions of people. It must make good its claims, or it forfeits the patronage of thousands. A product that is not advertised mav be worth' buying. But it is little known and its merit or unworthiness lies bid in comparative security.' Every product you see advertised must be worthy! It is tested daily by thousands. It is proved in the pitiless glare of publicity pledged to you in the advertising columns regularly. Read the advertisements to know which goods arc advertised. An Advertiser's Pledge Can Re Redeemed Only by Your Entire Satisfaction H H M H n H n IHIIBIBBSaaBiaBlESSBBSaiSEIISIBBBEBSCEIia&SEB
