 longer cause comment. A writer on the l subject says:
 l Electricity has grown to be such an l everyday convenience and necessity that we use it constantly. like air and l water. without single thought as to l it's source.
 1 From the tinkie of the electric door
 bell in the morning. when the milkman
 calls. to the extinguishing of the elec-
 tric light at night, the day is con
 tinuous round of electrical comven- I fences. l.
 The husband boards an electric car l for his busy ofice leaving the wife to l wash and iron. or maybe cook the dit- | ner. by the same current. He buys two
 cigars and lights one on the electric | cigar lighter; starts the electric fan | and Is ready to begin for his days l work. The important letters are ,dict- 1 ated into motor-d driven phonoBraph. l He calls up parties on the electric tele- | phones and answers telegrams sent by | electric telegraph.
 .At noon he rides down again in the electric elevator. takes an electric car I to his favorite lunching cafe and there | sits beneath both electric light and l fan, listening the while to an electric 1 piano.
 "In the afternoon business is resunn- ed over the same old electrical cenven- fences which no one ever notices now adays.
 After dinner the family takes ride in an electric cab to the theatre and witness many spectacular electrical ef- fects, returning home in the late even ing bv the same vehicle. After the electric lights are turned out the fam fly sleeps in security, knowing ths
 house to be fully protected with elec~ tric burglar alarms"
 The writer might have added to the story bY referring to the time consum- ed by Mila A. in using her electric curl- ing tongs. pressing out her best linz gerie waist with her electric iron. rnak- ing a garment on the machine run by electricity and taking hosty lunch prepared on the electric chatting dish. # @-
