ARE FARMERS BUSINESS MEN P 1 DO THEY COMPARE AVITH CITY HU SIN ESS-MEN ? The fanner can afford to laugh—and does, too! —at his city frieud. While the •'business-man," as folks ordinarily understand the term, is busy in his counting-house spending the midnight hours over vexations problems, or.pe.rchiince experiencing sleepless nights over dull trade, the farmer is lying comfortably asleep dreaming for the most part of fortunes past and present, and | secure in the knowledge that his wool is growing while ho sleeps and despite the effect, of the War on city business, the price of produce is still/ rising, and war profits promising to oe even larger than eve) - . 'The farmer can thus, indeed, claim to be the most successful busi-ness-man. It would really seem, in fact, that Fortune and Science, arm-in-arm, wore visiting every farmhouse in this Dominion. While Fortune has brought a season of phenomenally big prices for produce, thus yielding remarkably big profits, Science also is smiling on the couutry-dwellers, and has introduced tlie Wizard Light, literally saying, "1 am here to help brighten and lighten your homes and make your evening "hours a and delight/' This is, indeed, what the Wizard Light does —and the fact that within the last two years some, thousands of plants have been installed throughout the Dominion. i s proof positive enough that the farming populace have not been slow to recognise, and take advantage of, the- latest and best invention that science has evolved in connexion with house lighting. Stated briefly, the Wizard Lighting System consists of a petrol tank, from which are led tubes to the respective lights throughout the house. Any number of lights may be installed in a home, and these are replete with nonpuncturabie inverted gas burners, fitted with the latest stylo gasoliers or wall brackets. A small generator attachment is fitted to each light, and this converts the petrol into gas. It is thus the gas from the liquid, and not tho liquid itself, which is burned. This means a tremendous saving in petrol, and even at. the phenomenally high priccs prevailing at present for this commodity, tho cost of a Wizard lighting system is but one-half that of kerosene. Wherever the Wizard Light is installed the appreciation is always the same, and many testimonials have been contributed from delighted users of the system. The agent s for Canterbury arc Messrs Cuddon and Jameson, of 213 Manchester street, Christchurch. This firm have their representatives in all districts, and a postcard giving your name and address is all you need send in order to have a demonstration of the Wizard Light in your own home. Messrs Cuddon and Jameson are prepared, in fact, to install a Wizard anywhere, and leave it for one month. If the party is satisfied, the lijiht can be paid for ; if dissatisfied, the installation is immediately taken out, and no charge whatever made. This offer is made because the agents themselves have every confidence, both in the Wizard Light and in the fact also that everybody else who gets to know it will ■fluT in love with it too. You have everything t 0 gain by installing a Wizard Light in your home. Sit down now and write a.note to Cuddon and Jameson at the above address, asking thom to call. 1
