22ELECTRIC LIGHT
23For Stores, Factories and Public Buildings.
25THE WESTON ARC SYSTEM, which has been used in this city the past two years, having been greatly improved, we can now guarantee a steady and reliable light. The light from the Weston system is perfectly white, and thoroughly diffused with none of the blue and violet rays so objectionable in other lamps. From its near approach to natural light the slightest difference in colors can be readily distinguished.
27We would call attention to our INCANDESCENT SYSTEM; parties having their own power can use this light at a price which will compare favorably with the cost of gas.
29LIGHT POWER FURNISHED,
30FROM ONE-HALF TO FIVE HORSE POWER.
