TENT OF SUPERIOR ELECTRIC MAGNET LIGHT
MAO- RODS, it is non' admitted on all hands, that every
building to bo secure from the destructive influences of
lightning should be provided with a good conductor.
The large number of worthless rods that are put up
makes it necessary for purchasers to examine the merits
of the different rods offered for sale.
The public need but to examine Armitage's rods to be
convinced that they are constructed upon not only the
best, but the only safe principle of any rod in use.
Over 6000 of these rods have already been put up with
out the loss of a dollar's worth of property by lightning in
any building to which they have been attached, which is
the best evidence that they are perfectly secure. I have a
few on hand which I will sell for less than half of the re
tail price asked by Armitage, to close out my stock. Call
soon at Colon's Book Store, Huntingdon, Pa., where they
can be had of WSI. COLON.
