ELEGTRIC CHRISTMAS GIFTS ARE POPULAR They still jx>ssess that element of novelty dear to the American heart and thus solve the problem of Riving Christmas gifts that are “different.” Imagine how pleased most men would be to receive an electric shaving cup or electric cigar lighter, instead of neckties, socks and handker chiefs "as usual.” A tea kettle for grandmother, a samovar for Madam’s five o’clock teas, a chafing dish for the college girl or bachelor maid, a disk stove for the bachelor, a flatiron or sewing machine motor for the practical housewife all these noval and use ful gifts will be appreciated by whoever receives them. It should not be forgotten that these electric Christmas gifts are all useful gifts. Each of these devices is designed tn do some one thing better than it can be done any other way, wnether it is to perculate coffee, toast bread or furnish the pow er for running a sewing machine. The line of electric Christmas gifts is so com plete that in it will be found a suitable gift for every member of the family. PORTLAND RAILWAY LIGHT AND POWER CO.
