The bright store is the "hypnotic eye" of business. People can no more resist the attraction of u brilliant, lilcctricnlly lighted store than they can resist the clarion call of n brass baud. Is your couietitorwith the Electrically illuminated show windows, bright interior nnd sparkling Klcctric Sign gutting nu ndvuutngc over you? The moth never llutters around the uiilighted cnitdlcl Up-lo-dnte stores nowadays consider shop-window lighting n necessity, whether they remain open after dark or not. Competition forces modern methods. A show window brilliantly illuminated with Klcctric light will mnke many n sale "the night before." Klcctric light compels attention, makes easy the examination of your display, shows goods in detail and fabrics in their true colors. And don't neglect the Klcctric Sign. It is soliciting "tomorrow's" business every moment it is lighted burning your name in the public mind. It is n solicitor that never becomes weary never stops work costs little.
