Porte?* Timely Ad*.
: Merchant J. A. Porter has two very
timely advertisements in this issue of
The People. To the users of electric
light he suggests the Sunbeam Mazda
Lamps, which give more light for less
money than the ordinary carbon lamp,
as one means by which they can reduce
their light bill.
- With the chill vyinds of winter begin
ning to whistle around the tops of“low-
quarters,” he is in position to shoe the
entire family in the most approved
shoe styles for Fall and Winter.

STOIP ttLat lihlajk:
by using S U N B E A M M A Z D A
LAMPS. They turn all the current
into lights Two-thirds of the -electric
current you pay for is leaking away if
you are still using ordinary bulbs. The
Sunbeam Mazda Lamps give three times

for the same cost of current.
