Why Progressive Merchants
Are Using
Electric Light
Progressive Merchants everywhere have found
the wonderful MAZDA LAMP an immeasure-
able benefit to their business. This lamp radi-
ates brilliant white rays nearly like those of the
sun. This SUPERIOR QUALITY of artificial
light is produced by a rare metal filament that
not only radiates a perfect light, but gives nearly
THREE TIMES as much light as the ordinary
incandescent—and COSTS NO MORE to burn.
It is this remarkable combination of facts that is
causing thousands of people to have their houses
and places of business wired for electric light. In
fact, this new MAZDA LAMP is swiftly revolu
tionizing artificial lighting. It is making electric
ity the universal illuminant.
