Penny for Your Life,. Lady
A Penny and electricity are pretty important. The lady knows that
the penny will buy enough electricity to cook her lunch. But what she
doesn't know is that if she puts the penny. in the fuse box she stands to
frgi herself — permanently.
Only one thing should go in that box — a fuse! And the proper size
for the ordinary circuit is a 15. Never, Never, never use a 30! ,
If all the ladies of the land (and, for that matter, the gentlemen, too)
realized the deadliness of "over -fusing" there would be fess need of this
