THE "WIZARD" LIGHT
WHY IT EXCELS. Nearly three thousand complete •wizard"--Lighting Systems have been sold m New Zealand during the past three and a half years, and if all of the eountrv houses, stores, churches, banks, poet offices, etc., fitted with the "Wizard" Light were brought together they would form a city of about 24,000 peculation. Before the advent, of the "Wizard" Light, kerosene lamps and acetylene gas were in general use, bat up-to-date country householders nnd storekeepers find that the. "Wizard" gives them a finperior light to city coalgas at much less cost, and they are entirely independent of gas or coal strikes.

They require an asbestos torch dipped in methylated spirit to light Jhem, and the. jet must be pricked with n special needle, just the same as. a, primus stove. Tf the methylated spirit bottle is empty the lamps are useless. To light the "Wizard,"' Lamp, all that is necessary is to strilie a match, hold' it to. the generator for a fen , seconds, then turn on the light. "Wizard" Lamps aie specified for use in nil new country post offices, wireless stations, etc.: large numbers of lamps are also used by the Railway Department, military authorities, banks, halls, churches, elc, throughout the Dominion. In fact the "Wizard" Light is recognised as the most up-to-date, and efficient medium of country and suburban house lighting in New Zealand. Householders should write to Messrs.
