SELLS REGINA PATENTS.
The word "Regina," which at one time suggested
a music box and later a phonograph, is now applied
to a vacuum cleaner. The Regina Corporation which
formerly manufactured music goods and talking ma-
chines has disposed of its patents in talking machines
to the Regina Phonograph Corp., Rahway, N. J.
The Regina Corporation now confines its activities
to vacuum cleaners and the company is said to be in
a very healthy state.
