is generally conceded that two
lips are better than one. Also
it is universally admitted that a

When The Electric Power Is Turned on
We Realize How Much We Depend
Upon This Modem Energy

We never realize the wonder
full convenience of electricity,
and how much our daily comfort
actually depends upon it, until
the power IS turned off because
of some accident. Once in
great while the wires will be torn
down by a storm, or some acct
dent happens to the power plant,
end we are without electricity
for few hours. Then, and not
till then, do we realize the inn
portance of electricity to our
daily lives and comfort.
A few days entirely without
electricity would create an alarm
ing situation throughout the
world. Instantly all rapid CON-
municatlon would cease. Tele-
phones, telegraphs and wireless
stations could not be operated.
The steam trains would be the
only means of communication
between cities and they could
not be operated on the regula-
tion schedules owing to the fail
ure of electric signal and safe.
guarding system. Automobiles
could not be operated. the old
fashioned horse and carriage
would be in demand again. Life
in the cities would be seriously
handicapped. The trolleys would
be at a standstill and those liv-
ing In the suburbs could not go
to work. Elevators would be
motionless; at night the streets,
business places aud houses would
be in darkness.
Owing to tornado a certain
eastern city, of unpretentious
size, was without electricity for
an entire day. 1t seemed that
there was scarcely a place of
business which did not have
machinery of some kind opera
ted by the electric current. Even
Offices, where it is not generally
supposed that power driven
machinery is used, were badly
handicapped for want of electric
ity. Business men had to WALL
the streets and climb long flights
of stairs. Messengers had to
take the place of telephones. Of
course the electric lights were of
no use and oil lamps and candles
came suddenly back into fashion.
Nearly every factory and shop
within the city was driven by
electric power. When these mo-
tors refused to turn, for want Of
current, work was at standstill
and the workmen had to be sent
home to await the return Of the
Vltal spark.
