Magical Nite-Lights
*" Healthy adults who awaken at
night will enjoy these as much as
the invalid who needs an undis
turbing light for finding medicine
... or just to keep him company
during wakeful hours.
Children are thrilled by the
mystery of the figures w*t*un the
bulbs, which come round or long
tubular. One of these will make a
gay surprise for the toe of an Xmas
stocking or a tree ornament. See
