The cleanest brightest safest and really,

for use in the family residence, is the mean

be safer. A few days ago prominent gen.

"Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once no more lamps for me.
Last night lamp tipped overland it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite a number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
Just think it over and make up your mind
that you want the best and safest light; send
for the Hawaiian Electric Company and tell
them what you want.
We have a complete stock of everything in
this line and have just received a lot of the
very latest designs in chandeliers

evening drew an audience of about 500.

Brown kept the audience in an uproar.
The performance lasted nearly three
hours and there was not a dull minute,
the features succeeding each other in
rapid order and carried out in breezy
manner.
