You may think they are all Roch- esters, but the most of them are not. They are Plume & AtwCcis' lamps with the BELGIUM BURNER. You will notice that the stands are made of metal and that all are of artistic de- sign, which gives the purchaser a lamp of durability, and beauty. But the greatest
 point about these lamps is the burner, ing 40 psr cenc less oil and at the same time giving 20 per cent stronger light than other lamps. This means the saving of the price of a lamp in sea son in the burning Of oil.
