Save Your Eyes By Using a 

 Beck-Iden Acetylene Lamp 



Over ninety per cent of all eje 

 troubles are due to the use of un- 

 natural artificial lights,— 



And any light which contains 

 yellow or red rays is unnatural. 



The only natural light is a pure 

 white light, absolutely free from 

 yellow or red rays. 



This is the kind of light that the 

 Beck-lden l^anip gives. 



Beck-Iden Acetylene Lamp Co., 



The light produced by the Beck- 

 Iden Lamp is the only artificial 

 illuminaiit that resembles sunlight. 



It's absolutely impossible for the 

 Beck-Iden Lamp to explode. 



Makes an ideal light for country 

 homes. 



For full descriptions, cost of light 

 per hour, etc., write for booklet.
