If Honolulu was a place
where long twilights we're COM
mon all the year round the
necessity forlamps, good lamps,
would not be as great as it is.
But jumping from sunset to
dark as wesdo here, five or six
months in the year, people re-
quire lamps early and often"
And when you are getting one
why not buy something that is
ornamental as well as service
able. In the selection of our
lamps we have been careful to
get only those you can live
with harmoniously, something
that will not make the eye
weary or the heart sad. In
the last decade rapid strides
have been made toward per-
fection in lamps; ornamental

and silver. One banquet lamp

libraries where this lamp would

This lamp in its effect differs
from the wrought iron men

silk dress would differ from
one of lighter shade. One is

other carries with it a light
ness of character not found in
sombre black. We have tWen-
ty different varieties of these
lamps. sufficient to suit the
tastes Of every one. We re-
ceived by the lrmgard the
balance of our invoice of silk
shades and can show you to
day the latest designs in such
contrivances for adding to the
. beauty Of your lamp. Orange
