HOME LIGHTING BETTER AND
CHEAPER THAN CENTURY AGO

Electric lights are cheaper than
candles and the illumination is bet
ter.
One hundred years ago and for four
decades prior to 1855 sperm oil and
candles produced the light in the
average home in America.
Then came kerosene for illuminat-
ing purposes. For ten years people
got so per cent more light without
any increase in cost.
Later came the gas mantle and i'm
provement in gas lighting.
Today the maximum daily light re-
quirements of an average American
home is Is times that Of a century
ago. The cost is only two-thirds OF
what it was then. The cost Of light
ing per unit now is less than 8 per
cent of what 1t was in the days Of
sperm oil and tallow candles.
