iThe Lamp of Steady Habits| 



The lamp that doesn't flare up or smoke, or cause 

 you to use bad language ; the lamp that looks good 

 when you get it and stays good ; the lamp that you 

 never willingly part with, once you have it ; that's 



Cbe new Rocbesien 



Other lamps may be offered you as " just as good " 

 — they may be, in some respects, but for all around 

 goodness, there's only one. To make sure the lamp 

 offered you is genuine, look for the name on it ; every 



New Rochester lamp has it. 



We make oil stoves too, just as good as the lamps ; 

 in fact, anything in oil or gas fixtures.

Patent Wired Comb Foundation 



has no Sag in Brood Frames. 



Thin Flat Bottom Foundation 



has no Fish-bone in Surplus Honey. 



Being the cleanest is usually worked the quickest 

 of any Foundation made. The talk about wiring 

 frames seems absurd. We furnish a Wired Foun- 

 dation that is BETTEU, CHEAPEK and not half the 

 trouble to use that it is to wire brood frames.
