The toast to which the fortnei t'lcsltlrnt

when a delicate Intcrnatlnnnt situation
exists, the man who piloted this nation
four .enrs can scarcely fall tit dlrloie
his attitude on the lecent net of nggres.
slon of Gei many, It Is believed. Professor

to tlie entire coiiutr.
The reception to the former President
will be held In the old enfp, nnd will stmt

When the I'nlon League moved Into
Its Urond street home liroad street wns
paved with cobblestones, and railroad
tracks ran on It. At that time tho build
ing was one of tho largest nnd hand
somest in tho city. Efforts to have It torn
down nnd replaced by n modern structure
that would bo ln accordl with the recent
addition have been mnde of lato yenis,
but so far tho sentiment nttnchlng to the
old structure has been strong enough
to defeat these moves.
Kvery President since Lincoln with the
exception of Cleveland, whose election
was bittcily opposed by the I'nlon
League, has been entertained In the old
brick mansion. Dignitaries of many for
eign nations also have been Its guests
from tlmo to time, and the League la

This department will appear once
each week ln tho Evening Ledger
and will be devoted to all matters or
interest to owners, or prospective
owners, of phonographs, player
pianos and all other music instru
ments. Notice will be taken of
new records and rolls and of new
Inventions or improvements in In
struments. The editor of the department will
gladly answer all questions.
A slow week Is this In the way nt
record releases, the weekly Edison list
being the only new one promulgated. As
usual, the list, though email. Is precious,
and coutnlns much good In its variety.
First there are two songs (on one record),
both of them touching and affecting.
They are Tom Sloore's lovely "She Is Far
From the Land," eung by Thomas Chal
mers, and Eric Coates' "Melanle," sung
by Reed Sillier. Continuing the series of
Scripture lessons there are selections
from the Gospels according to St. Slant
and St. Luke. The Rev. J. Wilbur Chap
man reads both, and ench Is followed
by a hymn. Also In the religious vein the
next recording Is from Slendelssohn's
"Elijah" (two selections). The songs
compose the next record. William Dor
rain sings "SH Par d'Udlre ancora" (I
think I still hear), from Bizet's 'Tearl
Fishers," and the same tenor sings "Notte
sul Stare" a real Neapolitan song. A
more popular record, in the ordinary
sense, Is the combination of "Tell Slother
I'll be There" and "I'm Longing for Sly
Home, Sweet Home." The final record
of the list combines a paraphrase of the
Loreley and Rubinstein's "Kammenol
Ostrow." Accompaniment Rolls
Pne of the early developments of the
player-piano roll, yet one of the least cul
tivated, Is the roll which accompanies
voice or instrument. Both In the 65 and
In the SS-note roll, there Is a vast quan
tity of material -for the amateur's selec
tion. Of course, the "rag" of the moment
may not be represented, and that is a
pity, because there Is a deal of good
music In American ragtime. But there
are many songs which are popular in a
different way, and the music-roll pre
sents their accompaniment admirably.
The scoring- of the songs is carefully
made, and the pianist can follow the

She tried, she meant to give him his

stuck stubbornly In her throat. She knew
It would stnb him deep. He wasn't the
man to take lovo lightlv; his emotions
were anything but on the stirfnee; their
wounds would bu slow to hen!.
And In spite of the positive animus she
hid all along entertained tnwnid him. she
didn't want to hurt him now. perhaps not
sltnngely, remembering that this piopoal
of mnirln.Ro was a dlteet, downright pto
testation of Implicit faith In her. tittered

True, she had been ipilck to exonerate
him In her thoughts as soon ns the suspi

done so almost rcluctantlv, ungenerously,
not because sho wanted tn believe him In
lineent, hut because the burden of the cvt
dome, together with the counsel of In.
stlnct, hnd been too strong In his favor
to permit nioie than a moment's doubt.
And she had lepented. but that, It np

Ho mlsionstrued "I've told 1011 henps

more to me than hiring a woman to live

"How do ou know? How can oii

protested nlmost passionately, and nn
swciod herself "You don't know; ou
emit toll ou know nothing nbout me.
You ncrt things I only wish they were,

"Oh, thev'ie tiuo enough." lie Inter
rupted unceremoniously. "It's no use

"Then I must tell you " t
"Not until vou give mo some legitimate

"I can't I couldn't without telling ou

New Rolls
Tho difference between the regular roll

difference ln prlco is small. One company
lists a selection from that remarkably
tuneful and cheery operetta, "The Peas

who has once for nil shown you how the
roll should be played. And then you may

Some Classics
There Isn't any inherent virtue in clas
sical music which makes It sacred If
you don't like it you are missing what a
good many people do like, and that Is
about all. If they, on the other hand,
don't like popular music, they are missing
what everybody else does like, and that is
worse. But if ou simply aren't up on
classical music and think it's all stupid,
you are mistaken. Trying things over on
your piano Is one way or correcting thfl
mistake. This month you might try thH
third movement from Brahms' first
symphony. You will be willing to agree
after that that every Utile movement has
a meaning all Its own. There is also
on the. new lists Schubert's seventh
symphony and the second movement of
vcar urancKi umy syiupnony, tne one

.Come and Have Your
Selling Problems Solved
Pack them into your old carpet sack and tote them to the
Annual Convention
of the
Associated Advertising Clubs of the World
at
Chicago, June 20th to 25th, 1915
This is the greatest business event of the year, for it is a gathering of the
men who pull the throttle on the 20th Century advertising and selling route.
Once each year they get together and plan new ways and means to create
more business. Comes a man with a selling problem he can't work out it's
solved for him. Comes another with distribution troubles he learns how
others have succeeded. Comes a man whose advertising is all going out
and nothing coming in he goes home with an assorted lot of tried and
proven plans done up in a sanitary package ready to serve.
Every phase of advertising and selling is covered in the regular sessions.
Big businesses and little businesses are shown what to do and how to do it
not by theorists, but by men who have been through the mill and know
what they're talking about.
And they're a crowd of jolly good fellows, these Business Pilots, and
they've arranged to intersperse a lot of sight-seeing and entertainment in
betwixt and between, so that you'll absorb a lot of profitable knowledge and
then have a chance to play while you digest it.
The wife sure, bring her along. Lots of us do and these advertising
women by marriage seem to take to each other like ducks to water. Any
how there's plenty of doings to keep them happy.
But, enough we want you with us, so write or 'phone today and get full
particulars,

seat, spellbound In the preoccupation of
those thoughts, at once long mid sweet
with the comfort of a solaced self-esteem,
for which she had to thank the nilthor of
her first proposal of marriage
She rose nnd turned back to tlosnold

realizing that It was Sir. Trego's passion
which ovci shadowed both of theso busi

gladly have sealed both lips and ears 10

ln the warmth of her midden self-complacence.

On entering, she left the side door heed
