THE USE OF ELECTRICITY IN THE HOME.
Electricity is a useful and powerful thing.
We use it in a great many ways. We have elec
tric lights, irons, percolators, toasters and
stoves. It gives clearer lights than oil lamps
and we do not have to carry it from room to
r.irm D mjikps th ironinir easier and vour
iron does not get cold so quick. You do not
have to be running from the ironing board to
the stove all the time. The electric percolator
makes much better coffee and saves time and
work. You do not have to build a fire when
you want some coffee, you just put the coffee
and the water in and turn on the electricity and
you will have some coffee in a few minutes.
The electric toaster makes much better toast
and you do not have to hold it over the stove.
You "just put the bread on the toaster and turn
on the electricity and you will soon have some
toast. The electric stove is much cleaner than
a coal or wood stove. It saves time and work.
It does not take an hour to heat it. You turn
on the electricity and your stove will soon be
hot. It is so good it is used in most every home.
