The Brilliancy of
Sunlight
is more neatly approached by the new General Elec
tric MAZDA unit than by any other lighting fixture on
the market excepting an electric arc lamp. It ii des
tined to put electric light in every store, however small.
No illummant can compare with the G.E. MAZDA
light in low cost or Iiigh efficiency for electric current.
The Small Storekeeper
Can Save Money
by installing three or four or five of these units to illu
minate his entire premises. They are unrivalled for
show window lighting. Consult with us about our spe
