NOW IS THE TIME I To lay in your supply of I GARDEN TOOLS Would you have your home lighted equally as brilliant as gas or electricty would light it at a cost that is merely nothing? We have the St, Johns agency for the Incandescent Kerosene burner, anew invention, the benefits of which any one may have. The light is given by carbon and mantle through the new patent burner. We will have a number of them lighted in our store on Saturday night. BON HAM & CURRIER I Keep Bright and You WILL KEEP BUSY Klcctrlc Ulit Is the magnet that draws trade. The bright store Is the "hypnotic eye" of business. People can no more resist the attraction of a brilliant, Klcctricnlly lighted store than they can resist the clarion call of a brass band. Is your competitor with the Klcctricnlly illuminated show windows, bright interior nnd sparkling Klcctrlc Sign getting nn advantage over you ? The moth never flutters around the unlighted caudlel Up-to-date stores nowadays consider hop-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 make many n sale "the night before." Klcctric light comtxils attention, makes easy the examination of your display, shows goods iu detail and fabrics in their true colors. Aud 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.
