THE "WIZARD" LIGHT.

WHY IT EXCELS. Font 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, eto., fitted with the " Wizard" Light were brought together they would form a city of aDout 25,000 population. Before the advent of the " Wizard " Light, kerosene lamps and acetylene gas wye in general use, but up-to-date country householders »„d storekeepers find that the " Wizard " dives them a superior light to city coal gas at much less cost, and they are entirely independent of gas or coal strokes. The great 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 methlated spirit to start them, but the up-to-date Wizard Lamp Lights with a match, and is almost as easv to light as town gas. The " Wizard " is the only hollow-wire lighting Bvstem on the market that is fitted with lamps that will light with a match, and have automatic needles to keep the jets clean. The others are all made on the obsolete design discarded by the " Wizard " years ago. They require an | asbestos torch dipped in methylated spirit ' to light them, and the jet must be pricked with a special needle, just the same as a primus stove. If the methylated spirit bottle is emptv the lamps are useless. To [ light the " Wizard " Lamp, all that is i necessarv is to strike a match, hold it to J the generator for a few seconds, then • turn on the light. *' Wizard " Lamps are specified for use ' in all new country post offices, wireless ' stations, etc. ; large numbers of lamps i are also used by the Railway Depart- | ment, military authorities, banks, halls, churches, etc., throughout the Dominion. 1 In fact, the 'Wizard " Light is recognised as the most up-to-date and efficient : medium of cnuntrv and suburban house 1 lighting in New Zealand. Householder! should write to Messrs Early Brothers., Ltd.. 187. Featherston Street. Wellington, for full particulars of prices of the "Wizard" before being persuaded that some other light is " just as good.-Advt.
