YOU CANNOT
BEAT THE
BEST.
For years past it has been the constant endeavour of scientists to produce an Incandescent Electrio Lamp which would combine Efficiency with Mechanical strength.
This has at last been achieved in the Philips "PHOEBUS" Lamp which equals in efficiency the best types of Metallic Filament Lamps hitherto made, but without their drawback of Fragility.
Call at our Office, 14, Des Voeux Rd, and see the "PHCBUS." being knocked about and tested for Efficiency. Then ask the Price..
