THE "WIZARD" LIGHT.

WHY IT EXCELS. Nearly three thousand complete "Wizard" Lighting- Systems have, been sold in New Zealand during the past three and a-half years, and if all of the country houses, stores, churches, banks, post offices, etc., fitted with the "Wizard" Light were brought, together they would form a city of about 24,000 population. Before the advent of the "Wizard" Light, kerosene lamps and acetylene gas were in general use, but up-to-date country householders and storekeepers find that the "Wizard" gives them a superior light'to city coal gas at much less cost, and they are entirely independent of gas or coal strikes. The groat success of the "Wizard" Light has produced the usual crop of imitators, but "Wizard" Lamps are patented and cannot be copied. Fifteen years ago "Wizard" Lamps required a. torch dipped in methylated spirit to start them, but the up-to-date "Wizard" Lamp lights with a match, and is almost as easy to light as town ;..as. Tho "Wizard" is the only hol-low-wire lighting system on ttio market that is lifted with lamps that will light with a match and have automatic needles to keep the jeis clean. The others are all made on the obsolete design discarded by the "Wizard" years ago. They require ali asbestos torch dipped in methplat'd spirit to light them, and the jet must bo pricked with a special needle, just the same as a primus stove. If the methylated spirit bottle is empty the lamps are useless. To light tin 1 "Wizard" Lamp all that is necescarv is to strike a match, hold it to the generator for a few seconds, then turn on the light. "Wizard" Lamps are snecilied tor u*o in all new country post ofhees. wireless stations etc.: large numbers of lamps are also used l.v iho Railway Department, military authorities, banks, halls, churches, etc., th-oughout the Domii.ion. In fact the "Wizard" Tight is recognised as the most tm-to-dato and efficient medium of country and suburban house lighting in New Zea land Householders should write t^ Mcssre Early Bros., Ltd., 187 Featherston street, Wellington, lor full particular.-, of prices of the "Wizard" before being persuaded tint some other light is "just as good."
