ELECTRICITY. Because It is manufactured sunlight and has all the color elements of the sun. It does NOT heat the store in warm weather. It does NOT vitiate the air by consuming the oxygen, but leaves it fresh and sweet. It does NOT give off carbon dioxie or any other gas that begrims ceilings and smudges woodwork and goods.

It does NOT require matches with their danger of fire. It does NOT strain the eyesight by flickering or uneven glare. It does NOT flicker when an open door causes a draft. It does NOT waste a part of its illuminating force on the ceiling, but casts it all downward or can be reflected as desired. It does NOT make heavy shadows beneath the fixture.

IT IS the only light that can be safely used in closets and close corners, under counters and among the goods. IT IS the only always safe, clean and comfortable light. IT IS the PERFECT light. TELEPHONE Citizens' Electric Illuminating Co. No II Broad Street.

sua Ninth Washington. Dearborn Chicago, WILKESBARRE BEAT WYOMING SEMINARY In the seven inning game the Barons easily defeated Wyoming Seminary yesterday afternoon by the score of 9 to 4. and it is thought that ihey might easily have doubled the score had they been a little less sympathetic. Moughan and Rcpaski tiid the twirling for the Wilkesbarre bunch, while Rhenard. of Miner's Mills, caught.

The seminary aggregation was able to do nothing with the Barons' pitchers until they eased up in the latter end of the game and allowed them to score. Dexter and Cook pitched for the seminary, but they were obliged to use some of the scrub team on account of the inability or a couple of the regulars to be present. Hunter and Fogarty did the leading stick work for the Barons each of them getting two hits. Following is the score: Wilkesbarre ...2 3 0 4 0 0 9 Seminary .....0 0 1 0 2 1 04 BROOKLYN GIANTS BEAT SCRANTON The Brooklyn Royal Giants, probably the strongest colored team playing ball, landed on Welsh hard in the first two innings of the game with Scranton yesterday afternoon and an nexed enough runs to win.
