With gas or kerosene there is the temptation to let light burn, when not needed, to save bother of lighting and adjusting. In some homes the electric light bill amounts to only about $2 per month. You can probably get some kind of artificial light for less money than electric light, but does it save you anything when it limits opportunities for work and recreation, ruins your eyesight, smokes your walls, mars decorationu and increases household work. You can probably save a dollar tomorrow by going without your meals, but it wouldn’t be economy. It is not so much what you save, but how you save, that counts.
