Increasing Light at ;
No Expense to Any
Part of Home Purse j
The at (trivial lighting season Is at '
hand. We have used as little light as1
possible dining the summer time and been '
out of doors as much as possible. Much j
dust has undoubtedly accumulated on the
globus and reflectors, which materially (
reduces their llelit.ulvliifr rriel,.iw. A I
little time spent In washing the lamps
and rcflcctois will work wonders In
brightening up the home. The same Is
true of the lighting flumes In the stoic,
or business office.

mistress now guards her own precious
possessions and relieves her inald of em

having her china closet brightly lighted
the minute tho door Is opened. This Is
accomplished by means of the automatic
electric switch which turns the light n

This Ilttlo arrangement has saved manv
a valuable piece of china or glass from

One of the newest electric washing ma
chines to be plaeed on the market In
Omaha Is the Meadows Klectrlc I'owrr
Washer, which Is sold by the T. O.
Northwall company. 91S-1I Jones street.
This washer Is one of the latest Im
proved machines combining a washer,
rinsing tub and swinging wringer on one
platform, as an Illustration on this page
shows
One of the points advanced In fax or of
the Meadoms Is that It Is the washer
convenient. It Is so constructed that nil
tho work can be done fiom one side. This
makes It possible to place the machine j
closo to tho wall, where It will take tip j
but Utile space. The tub Is fastened to a I
hinged platform, which makes It possible ,
to drain all thewater out of- the tub I
without lifting nil) thing but the tub. .
The wringer Is built to swing back and
ftrth from the washing nnd rinsing tubs j
This arrangement creates h double ma- '
elhne, which washes and rinses at the
same time.
The households of Omaha are rapidly
being supplied with electric washing ma
chines, and the Meadows, which has Just
come Into this city. Is meeting with a
great demand. Thousands of tho gasoline I
Power Meadows have been sold In the '
territory adjacent to Omiilm, but the !
electric Meadows has Just recently been
placed on the market, being an Improve
ment that Is considered Ideal among
washers. It does effective wotk and. like
all electric appllnnces, tloes away with
much Inconvenience and drudgery about
the household.
Woman Turns Iron
' Into a Cook Stove
Which is Practical
"The people III the flat above us have
a noxol way of doing light housekeep
ing," said a oung lady from Henson tho
other day. "They have one of those little
stnuds on which ,ou turn nn electric Iron
upside down nnd upon thn Inverted Iron
they do all their cooking. They oven
cooked their Christmas, turkey on it by
turning It and basting it and turning It."
The small stands which can bo nsed
for Inverting nn electric Iron cost very
little nnd really afford unite a con
venience for auxiliary cooking for anvonn
who has nn electric Iron. It costs from
3 to 6 cents to run an electric Iron, but
a Httlo hot soup enn bo made or a little
frying or toasting done In much less
time, so that nobody would find the ex
pense to he In nnyway equal to the con
venience of having a tiny stoic ready to
work In any room at any time.

Tho modern housewife is not "modern"
until she has taken advantage ot the op
portunities offered by the electrical conven
iences which have been invented for use in
t
the household. The electrical toaster, the
electrical iron, disc stove, coffee percolator,
vacuum cleaner, washer, and many more
of these devices have made the life of the
modern wife very easy. There Is no dirt, no
drudgery, attached to keeping house when
the wife has at her command all of these
helps. Sho can get more work done cook
better meals, keep the home cleaner, and
save more money, than any wife can who
does not have these conveniences. Keeping
house is a pleasure for the wife who Is sup
plied with these conveniences. You, Mrs.
Householder, can get these conveniences In

Electric Light in the Home
Hakes Housework Easier
Take ironing as an instance. Instead of
rough and dirty irons you can use a
brightly polished Electric Iron that is
always smooth, uniformly hot and per
fectly clean. No hot stove overheats the
room. No tiring steps between ironing
board and stove to change irons. Work
goes mote quickly with less effort and
is better done than with stove-heated
irons.
Have Your House Wired

No home is truly modern unless It has this beat
of all Uumlnants Electric Light. When you
consider Its safety, convenience, cleanliness, and
the fact that it saves health and eyesight, It is
the most economical light also. Why not talk
