Practically every merchant
in this town spends some
money for lighting his store
front. 1t is worth While to
do this in such a way as to
get real benefit from it.
One of the mistakes often
est made is not to put in
enough candle power to
re ally illuminate. If the
goods on display are not
lighted SO as to appear dis
tinctly. and display their
attractiveness as in day
light, the window lighting
is failing to do what you
are paying for.

nation is not expensive and may make
the difference between profitable and
