an Osram lamp’ has been picked up at
a North Wales coast resort. It had
been in the water so long that it was
a solid brown mass. It bore the iden:

Although there are 80,000 dogs in
Luzerne County and 23,000 licenses
were taken out here last year, Thurs-
day at the.expiration of the time al-
lowed for securing licenses for 1929,
but 2,700 have been issued by the

At Coal Mines
—0:—
The cold wave which has been hov-
ering over this section of the State
has been responsible for joy to coal
and ice dealers. All Hudson Coal
Co. operations, including Greenwood
Colliery near Moosic, and Baltimore
No. 5 in Wilkes-Barre, are now work-
ing. The two collieries had been idle
for some time. Glen Alden Coal Co.
reports all operations working. Penn-
sylvania Co., Scranton Coal Co. and
virtually all other producers are mak-
ing similar reports concerning oper-
ations.

Pumpkin Keeps Popularity
This generation has known the |
pumpkin more as a symbol of the har-
vest season than as the vegetable of
all uses. Pumpkin is still popular,
and not only because it is a substi-
tue for what the Puritan blue laws |
styled “anti-Christian'minced pies,” but
other than that their only’ use is’ for
Balloween jack o’ lanterns ‘and dairy [
fodder. Every year the production
exceeds the censumption.—Rutland
Herald.
Utilizing Fireflies
Cuban negroes, going about at night,
fasten a firefly to each big toe, to light
their way along some dark path. They
also make lanterns out of gourds hol-
lowed out and perforated with many
small holes inside of which are placed
several of the big fireflies.
Passion’s Impetuosity
A genuine passion is like a moun:
tain stream; it admits of no impedi-
ment; it cannot go backward; it must
go forward.—Bovee.

Greyhound Pigs Gone.
That greyhound pigs, that once ex-
isted in Ireland, are now extinct is the
declaration of an Irish scientist. The
animal was a native Irish domestic
pig, probably a descendant of the wild
boar and had a hairy body, long legs
and ears, and often whiskers like
those of a goat. Its objection to being
driven to market made it unpopular,
and this led to its undoing. oH

Vast Distance Range
Philco has brought distance

in distance at volume you can enjoy!

booming in. Sharp—clear—no “groping.”
High notes, pure and clear;
low notes rendered in their true pro-

And now, greater power than

amazing! And startlingly true to life!

And then—most surprising of
all—this superb quality Philco is

Neutrodyne=-Piu
Power, super-power — that’s the
secret of Neutrodyne - Plus, Philco’s New
Radio Discovery. The power to perform un-

great power Philco engineers have added for
the first time to Neutrodyne, famous for its
pure, clear tone.
No Aerial Needed
Philco needs no aerial for local
and many distant stations. All-electric—
entirely dry. Range control cuts out local
interference and separates distant stations.
