WIRELESS TELEPHONE
 A2E NOW \ SUCCESS

The use of the wireless telephone has become what almost might be termed common in the vicinity of New York during the last year. The radio aerials may be seen on thousands of housetops in the city and its envirpns and so much copper wire has been used in this way that the business of the wire companies has appreciably improved. The apparatus is freely sold in most of the department stores, re- ceiving stations being maintained in each instance, and the New York Globe and the World every day pub fish columns of information and news. Over 100000 sets have so far been bought
 Two factors have been responsible for the wide interest in this startling development of science. One is the practice of two or three of the big sending stations around New York - broadcasting news, weather repoI,s. lectures, sermons. and various kinds 0f music and entertainment Possessed of receiving apparatus, one may re- cline quietly by the fireside and pick a good time out of the vibrating ether. | The second reason for the popularity | of radio equipment is it's low cost A simple crystal SC tmay be obtained for as little as $15 and for about $150 one l may obtain truly luxurious outfit with an amplifier so that every one in 1 a room may hear. The Da Forest and 1 Westinghouse companies. ani possibly
