Keep Bright and You WILL KEEP BUSY Klectric Wght is the magnet that draws trade. The bright store is the "hypnotic eye" of business, People can uo more resist the attraction of a brilliant, Electrically lighted store than they can resist the clarion call of a bra: baud. Is your competitor with the Electrically illuminated show windows, bright interior and sparkling Klectric Sign getting nn advuntage over you? The moth never flutters around the unlighted candle! Up-to-date stores nowadays consider shop-window lighting a necessity, whether they remain open after dark or not. Competition forces modern methods. A show window brilliantly illuminated with Klectric light will make many a sale "the night before." Klectric light coniels attention, makes easy the examination of your display, shows goods iu detail and fabrics' in their true colors. And don't neglect the Klectric Sign. It is soliciting tomorrow's" business every moment it is lighted burning your name in the public mind. It is a solicitor that never becomes weary never stops work costs little.
