WILLIAM C. JACK & CO., LTD.,
--SOLE AGENTS FOR THE IDEAL LIGHT
THE OSRAM LAMP WHAT IT DOES.
IT EFFECTS ENORMOUS REDUCTIONS
electric light hills.
in
IT BENDERS ELECTRIC LIGHT ABSOLUTELY THE CHEAPEST ILLUMINANT, and thus brings this mode of lighting within reach of all. "IT PAYS FOR ITSELF in about 150 hours
of its great current-saving Account
Properties. THE 17 WATT. Opp. 16 H,C.P.)
01
OSRAM LAMP GLYES 20 HOURS LIGHT FOR ONE PENNY.
THE 40 WATT (spp. 32 H.C.P.) OSRAM LAMP gives 25 hours light for the consumption of one unit of current.
THE OBRAM LAMP Liss an average life of over 2,000 hours, and during the whole of that period its initial. ep. is practically un- dianinished.
IT CONSUMES only approximately 1 watt per Helper osudle-power as against 4 waits consumed by a carbon filament lamp. SEE THE WORD "OSKAN" IS ON EVELY
BULE.
THE OSRAM LAMP
WHAT IT DOES NOT
IT DOES NOT deteriorate in light even after
2,000 hours burning,
IT DOES NOT, although its initial cost is more,
PROVE AS EXPENSIVE AS AN ORDINARY CARBUN LAMP, for it laste your times long, and consumes one-quarter ALL THE TIME."
the current
IT DOES NOT require any special installing, burns in any position on any lighting circuit, and fits existing lampholders,
DOES NOT RAM LAMP BLACKEN. IT DOES NOT GET HOT. The OSRAM Lamp, although giving four times the light of a carbon lamp, does not generate best to any extent.
This, added to its other advantages,
THE
it the ideal Lamp for private houses THE HIGH CANDLE-POWER LAMP DOES NOT take as much current as the Enclosed Are Lamp, and is rapidly displacing this latter form of lighting, being cheaper in first cost and cheaper to maintaine
