\Vhen selecting “B” Batteries for your radio, remember that with distant stations, clearness of tone and economy of operation depend largely upon using the correct size of batteries.

Cut down expense and get bettcrresults by following these simple rules:

On l to 3ltubes — Use Eveready No. 772 On 4 or more tube "—_ Use the Heavy Duty "B" battery No. 770

On all but single tube sets—Usea "C" bittery

When these rules are followed, the No. 772 will last for almost a year, and the No. 770 for about eight months, when listening at the year round average of two hours a day. 11 NOTE: In addition to the increased liic which an Evereatly "' battery gives to your "B" batteries, ir \\ill add at quality olﬂreception ilnobtainultle without it.
