The card is entitled, "What one cent will do when expended for electricity in the home," and it states that it will run a sixteen candle power carbon lamg one an<J,one-half hours, or a twenty-nine candle power Tungsten lamp three honrs. It will pay for the operation of a sewing machine motor; one hour, of » vacuum cleaner forty five m'nntes, of a washing machine thirty- nine minutes, of an automobile tir4 pump thirty minutes. It will keep a six pound fiatiron hot thirty minutes, make fonr cups of coffee in an electrical percolator, boil a qnart of water, heat the baby's milk twice, keep a warming pad hot two hours, cook a rarebit in an electric chafing dish, or warm a curling iron fil'teeu minutes a day every dny for two weeks. These figures are tmsed on the rates charged by the company thrn- out its territory, and the same as it offers in McHenry. By the purchase of the Illinois Lakes Light and Power company the North Shore Electric compauy, which operates in the suburban territory and nearby country around the city of Chicago, has secured electric light plants of Dundee, Barrington, Crystal Lake, McHenry and Antioch in Kane, McHenry and* Lake counties. The territory thus served covers the lake regiou of northern Illinois and is a favorite place of resort in the summer time for people living in Chicago. It contains mauy summer hotels and resorts, as well as a large number of snuimer cottages. By this extension the North'Shore Electric com­ pany adds to its territory approximately TOO square miles. The total area served by this company is now a boot 1,240 square miles.' This is abont the area of the state of Rhode Island and is one- half the area of the state of Delaware. The nearest North Shore generating station ill the new territory is located at Waukegan, III., bnt there is also a gen­ erating station at Evanston, Ill , and these are connected „by transmission line ruuning north and south. Abont eight uiilessouth of Waukegan there.is a sub station at Lake Bluff, and as the new territory acquired lies west of Waukegan a new transmission line is to be built, tapping iuto the existing transmission line at Lake Bluff and be­ ing bnilt in the form of a loop or ring enclosing the territory served and com­ ing back to Waukegan. Built in this riug shape this liue will be virtually a duplicate line, for it may be fed into either trom the Waukegan or L ike Bluff end. This new transmission line will rnn .southwest from Like Bluff to Bar­ rington, thence proceed to Crystal Lake and then to McUenk-y and back to Wan­ kegan. Sub stations will be located at Bar­ rington and Crystal Lake, and there will be others, the location of which ti&Ve not been definitely fixed. In the new territory which has beeri acquired the summer resort people aud the cottagere are eager for electric light and electrical conveniences to which their patrons or they themselves are accnstomed in the city.

Holmes' delightful novel, "Tempest and Sun­ shine," dramatisation by Lem B. Park­ er, is an ev«nt that should be looked forward to with interest by onr theatre goers. The scenery is beautiful, every­ thing used in the representation beiug carried by the company. The costum­ ing is quaint and pretty, the gowns be­ ing of airy summary stuffs, made in the fashion of 1850 which is the period of the play. Beautifut Southern melodies are introduced thrnont the play with great effect. The story is both strong and interesting, and is relieved with much comedy which is contributed by the darky servants as a special enter­ tainment for their masters and mistres­ ses, who are of the Southern aristocracy. "Tempest and Sunshine" is one of the big successes of recent years and no one who enjoys a first- class play, presented in a first class manner, should fail to see "Tempest and Sunshine."
