T." LIGHTS .. for FUTURE DA S.
AH can now be pleased, whatever is desired in Light. t, The
PEARL CANDLE •LAMP is the• perfection of Candle Lights,. and
must succeed ; its simplicity myriads will admire. To sell the ordi-
nary Candle Lamps is now impossible—the public have long enOugh
been pestered with such rubbish.
The DIAMOND CARCEL OIL. LAMP is the best oil light the
world. The Carcel Lamp is used in all the Palaces in Europe;; this
is sufficient guarantee for all—it never will be out-done.
The STARLIGHT •NIGHT .LIGIIT . is .a beautiful little light to
illumine the bedchamber. All other night lights will be used no
more ; its economy and simplicity all will admire, for what call he
desired more than perfection ? To what conclu.ion can we come?
Certain, henceforward the only lights will be—the Sun, the m!,ghty
gem of Heaven by day ; the Pearl and. Diamond Lights at evening ;
