Electric Lights for q Cts a Month";

Honolulu uses the electric current for
lighting purposes more generally than do
most American cities OF it's population.
The reasons are found partially in the eli
mate conditions which urge the
adoption OF a light unaccompanied by
heat or an offensive odor. Furthermore,
no gas company has found our city an
inviting field for investment chiefly be-
cause of its scattered condition and the
consequent large cost of reaching
consumers; and electricity has thus met
no competitor except the original oil
lamp and the tallow candle. A third
cause we believe to be largely the fact
that when electric lighting was first in
troduced by the Government, it was
offered to consumers on basis Of rates,
which in many cases OF commercial
lighting and especially for night light
ing, considerably discounted the cost of
oil for the same amount OF Illumination.
The demand thus created soon reached
the limit OF that Government supply.
Today the Hawaiian Electric Company
possesses working capacity equal to
more than three times the present COM
bined incandescent output OF the Gov
eminent service together with our own.
We offer lighting at the Government
fiat rates as follows:
Stores and Offices per 10 c. p. light per
month $1.00
Residences per Is c. p. light per
month-to lights 90cts.
Residences per Is c. p. light per
month-excess OF ) lights scots.
We do much better than this for our
consumers. We place lights in every
nook and corner OF your premises ii you
wish. measure the light you use, and
charge for actual consumption only.
You use light when and where you
need it and you don't forget to shut it off
when that need is satisfied. nor do you
feel bound 70 keep the lights going from
dusk till dawn in order to secure the
value OF q stipulated bill. We in turn
know exactly what We have delivered to
YOU and can figure with certainty upon 2
definite and rock bottom basis.
The cost OF a 10 {. p light per hour is
IL TO Is cents, varying with the
efficiency OF the lamp.
The probable cost 10 you per month IS
clearly indicated by the following
analysis OF total charges made for resi-
dence Limiting during June. Average

and comfort, YOU can i'll afford TO use
candles or oil. We furnish fittings and
wiring OF only the best grades and for
obvious advantages at the lowest reason
