The fila ment is made of a rare metal called Tungsten, which p -Mb an intense brilliancy at low coat In shape and 'i..::e the bulb is just like any other electric incandescent lamp. Why not try a Tungsten lamp yourself? Get one of the 40-watts and use it somewhere in your house in place of one of your carbon lamps. Then observe the great difference.

Both Lebanon papers have exactly the same report of the recent concert of the Aibany College Trio, evidently having formed a trust, but it is a good one, and deserves a place in the litera ture of the valley along with the poems of Sam Simpson. Here it is: The concert given by the Albany Con servatory of Music Wednesday night was a rare treat. Miss Aetna A. Smith, soprano, in rich and splendid voice, charmed and delighted the audience. The nightingales of sunny Italy and the skylarks of Old1 England were heard in her notes and the selections rendered. The witchery of her magic music charm ed all ears. Miss Emma R. Sox, pianist, in her instrumental renditions, showed the training and culture of long years. In deed snch was the skill shown that one felt that a master was at the keys, charming forth the matchless melodies rendered. Miss Mary L. Blackwell. reader, captivated ail. Her thorough and per fect imitations of old and young,' gruff and gay, Caucasian and Celt, showed the genius of power in htr selectiorafc. That the audience was well repaid for facing the stormiest night of the season was evidenced in the apprecia tive applause and encores. Our people are learning tnac in uid Liinn tne pro ducts near at hand are worthwhile, for genius and art, schools under the great masters has enabled Albany College to possess talent equal to the best, where- ever found. Midst clearer skies it is hoped to have these great artists with us again. MISFITS. Well the rain suits, after a sufficiency of snow. j The middle west is getting its dose of i weather now.

Democrat's suggestion that Al bany have a night clerk at the post of fice is meeting with favor by the busi ness men. Two shows, both having big houses, in one night, indicates that Albany is getting big enough to take care of sew oral things at the same time.
