S2 WILMETTE LIFE November 19, 1YL6 · .... · A Lady Got Three ·Lamps -and pu~ them to work in her home O NE lamp was too ambitious. It did not belong there, because it was only half strong enough. It went out in a blaze of glory in less than forty minutes. HE second lamp was lazy. T It gave only a fourth of the light it should, because it belonged on a lighting system twice as powerful. Science says this lazy lamp will last 1360 years, but it will never in its life do an honest evening's work. HE third lamp which she T received at a Public Service Store was entirely satisfactory. It was of the correct strength for the electricity she was using. It not only gives a cheerful light -not too bright or too weak- but it will probably last for one thousand hours of actual use.
