Smaller batteries, however, are often sold with a set as original equipment, in order to keep your initial investment as low as possible. This is a mjtake.

As a matter of dollars and cents saved, it is battery efeonomy to buy either Ever- eady Battery No. 770 or the even longer-lived Eveready Layerbilt 486. These big, husky batteries are more economical because theynast twice as long, and cost only; one-third more. Manufactured and guaranteed by NATIONAL CARBON COMPANY, Inc.
