LAMP.
BURNS OPEN LIKE GAS.

NO SMOKE, NO SMELL.
Hundreds of Thousands in Use.
Easiest to Trim. Cleanliest to Handle.
THE HITCHCOCK haviDg no chimney to create and radiate Heat, is the only-
Lamp that should be used for Reading, "Writing, or Sewing, because with a shade it
sheds a cool, soft light down upon your work, and may be placed conveniently near without
heating the head and eyes. This peculiarity of the Hitchcock — that it does not radiate
heat — renders it the most desirable Lamp for the Library, the Study, and the Office, for
Warm Weather and Hot Climates.
A MARVEL OF USEFULNESS. — Besides being available for use in every room in the
house, from the kitchen up to the nursery, and the Safest to Carry from room to room, it
is admirably adapted for Tramway Cars, Omnibuses, Kailway Carriages, Kailway Stations,
Village Street Lamps, Eesidential Approaches and Gateways, Shooting Lodges, Stable Yards
and Outhouses, Camping-out Parties, Picnic Parties, etc. etc. For all Climates, Seasons,
and Circumstances, it rises PEERLESS among Lamps, for its usefulness never ends.
Tiy the HITCHCOCK, and prove whether its Steady Brilliance, Absence of Eadiation of Heat,
Ease of Management, Safety, and Portability do not make it the most Useful and Economical Lamp
you have ever seen.
