It is stated that never in the history of Philco‘s annual confeisnces has any announcement been received with such excitement by veteran Philco racio men. ‘This new invention, known as Philco Mystery Contrsl, will completeâ€" ly revolutionize and radio listenâ€" ing, according to Mr. Capell, interviewâ€" ed at the Club. ‘"The Philco Mystrry Csoxntrol," he explained, "will absoliutely revolutionize radio and raâ€" dio listehning. It is radio remote conâ€" trol to the nth degree . . . something that was not dreamed of a year ago. With the Philco Mysteryâ€"Controlled radio you can pick your siation, change it, adjust the volume or turn the set From the annual gathering of the Philco Distributors‘ Conference held last week at the Seigniory Club, Que., comes startling news of what apnears to be the most sensational radio invenâ€" tion since the disscovery of radio itz>lf.

HARE, Manager, Kirkland Lake Branch Marry R. Jenkins, Timmins, F. H. Hepburn, South Porcupine, Representatives The world‘s first telephone conversation over any distance was in 1876 when contact was made between Brantford and Paris, Ontario. People wouldn‘t believe it. Even Alexander Graham Bell at first saw scant possibilities in his own discovery. Twentyâ€"nine years before this momentous event the Canada Life, then the only Canadian life insurâ€" ance company, issued its first policy to a resident of Ontario.

And all this is accomplished with the Philâ€" co Mystery Control which is no larger than a smallâ€"sized sox and can be carâ€" ried in the hand anywhere. It‘s most unique characteristic is that all this is accomplished without the use of a single wire connecting the Mystery Control unit with the radio set. "In Mystery Control, the radio buyâ€" ing public have the greatest thrill comâ€" ing to them that they have had since they tuned their first radio, for without question, this uncanny, fascinating raâ€" dio discovery is the most important invention since the beginning of raâ€" dio. It is the result of our search for somethinz new which people would 6ff from your easy chair across the rsom, or while lying in your bed upâ€" need and desire." The compact Mystory Control unit is of light weight and attractive deâ€" sign. It has no wires, no cords, no plugâ€"in connections of any kind whatâ€" soever, and it can be carried easily anyâ€" where and placed anywhere. From the arm of one‘s easy chair or one‘s bed upstairs, and with a finger flick of the dilal, one can tune in any of eight staâ€" tions, regulating the volume as deâ€" sired and the turning off of the radio. It is characteristic that the Philco Mystery Control is perfectly mated to the actual radio set which it operates and cannct ‘be used to control any other radio, even though the other set may be a Philco Mysteryâ€"Controlled radio. Montreal Gazette: In a forgery case in Paris, in which three men were charged on two counts with having forged and discounted 3,607 share cerâ€" tificates, the jury had to answer in writing ‘Yes" or "No" to 21,642 quesâ€" tions.

Painted Family Life An English woman of means, Mary Elien Best travelled a great desal on the continent with her children and spent much time in Germany while they were growing up. She seldom painted anything but family life, small, meticulous pictures of various rooms they lived in, domestic scones, views of streets members of the family in the course of everyday life. These picâ€" tures are as intricate and perfect as miniatures, and the complete and inâ€" timate record they give of daily life on the Continent and in England during the 19th ceontury are valuable docuâ€" ments in the same way as are the small, detailed paintings of the "little Dutchmen" of the 16th and 17th cenâ€" turies in Holland. Too few painters of the past have left such records of the ordinary life of their times . . . most of themâ€"were too busy painting maâ€" donnas and kings‘ mistresses to se> the charm of deomestic seenes.

The fact was not neraided by any publicity, because those concerned were afraid of being swamped with the first rushn of men looking for work.
