YOU CANNOT BEAT THE
BEST.
For years past it has been the constant endeavour of scientists to produce an Incandescent, Electric Lamp which would combine Efficiency with Mechanical strength.

Call at our Office, 14, Des Vœux Rd., and see the "PHCEBUS " being knocked about and tested for Efficiency. Then ask the Price:
