Charles Courboln Pleases With
Bach and Other Nymbers
Another large audience attended the
aecond of the Thursday ei Piling organ
recitals hi Charles M. Courboin at the
TVanamnkcr store last evening. The
program given was somewhat lighter '
in character than that of the previous
evening and wns apparently enjoy 1, !
M. Courboin displayed the vast re
sources of the great organ both in,
volume and vnrictv of registration tn
better advantage thnn nn the opeiiing
evening. His technique is nninzing es '
pecially in bis pedal work while the
instrument in the bands of such an
artist is capable of producing tones in
any color and in any volume from a
tiny thread of sound that can scarceh '
be heard, to a mass of tone that fanly,
hake.s the huge building.
Strictly speaking, the piograni wns
not made up of numbers especialh ,
adapted to show off either the plaver
or the instrument itself. It bnd evi
dently been chosen with n view to
pleasing a mixed audience, for (here
were comparatively few real organ
numbers on it. i
The most popular selections weie the I
well known "Aria on the f! String" nf
Sebastian Hacb. n solo for the first,
violins in (lie Suite for Stringed Or-
ehestrn. nnd the "Musicn Snuff-P.n",
of Hiadow . originally composed for the
piano
It cannot be denied, bowevei, that
Hie effect of the latter on the nrgan '
is far hetter than on the piano, as M i
Courboin used stops which cave the pre '
rise effeef of Hip little music boxes so i
well known some ten or fifteen yenrs
ago. He nlsn followed (be directions f
the composer accurately in plaving Hie
piece nt the close as though the box
were running down, the whole resulting ,

Anent the advantages of specialization much is being written
these days, and right here the Chestnut Street Shops have a word to
say for themselves. Shopping on Chestnut Street is liRe going from
one department to the other in a largo department store, with the
added advantage which specialization always gives of being able to
choose from a very complete stock of like articles those which you are
seeking.
FROM time immemorial the most
cherished of family possessions
has been the silver. When
hard times after the Civil War
forced many southern families to
part with their heirlooms the family
silver was jealously guarded as the
most precious of all household treas-
Ul-?wi Tho valuo of siIver increases
with the years until it becomes price
less As a wedding gift there is
nothing that can quite take its place,
for it is a useful as well as a beauti
ful gift a gift whose value is not
only of today, but one whose worth
cannot be gauged by the passing of
ScaTv .J.At the storG of Bailey, Banks
& Biddle you will find a wonderful
array of silver, the exquisite designs
of which are exclusive with this
house, and so cannot be duplicated.
, PPLES the fall snap in the air
- brings them to mind, and, of
course, when we think of
apples we think of Hallowcll's as the
logical place to find the largest and
most delicious apples. That word
delicious leminds mo that among the
latest arrivals at the store of Henry
R. Hallowcll & Son, Broad street be
low Chestnut, arc the Delicious
Apples, so-called because of their
wonderful flavor. The crisp Jona
than is hcic. too, and the mellow yel
low Winter Banana if you like it in
thyme. Large, perfectly shaped
bunches of hothouse grapes one of
the few things that Belgium is now
producing are coming in now. A
l bunch of these forms a most dclight
! ful and acceptable gift for they are
i something out of the ordinary, and a
gift of this kind evidences thought
, on the part of the giver.
JUST the thing for the days when
it is still too warm for a heavy
coat and yet too cool to wear
a dress without a wrap of somc kind
are the woolen scarfs at Oppcnheim,
Collins & Co.'s store, Chestnut and
Twelfth streets. They are in brown,
navy, beige and burgundy. There
are plaids, too, in navy and tan, navy
A WORD to the wise is sufficient,
they say, and so a little tip
as to the wisdom of purchas
ing early the phonograph that you
intend for a Christmas gift may not
be. amiss. It is very likely that
prices may be much higher by
December, so put the New Edison at
the head of your shopping list. You
will find a number of interesting
models at the store of N. Stetson &

that a reproduction on the Edison is
truly worthy to be designated a "re

every day without having to
undergo afterward the sad
ordeal of washing the pans. You
will find this quite possible if you

their simplicity accords well with
the plainest of china and silver there
is such dignity and charm about this
glassware that you will not hesitate
to use it with your finest silver and
linens.
THE vogue of the leather coat during the coming season is a thing
assured, for it is not only a smart and eminently becoming article
of apparel, but it is a thing of utility as well. MacDonald & Camp
bell, 1334 Chestnut Street, are showing an exceptionally fine lot of these
coats for men and one of their most interesting features is that they are
reversible. On one side you have a soft leather coat, and by reversing it a
good-looking coat of tweed or homespun. The leathers, in black, tan or
gray, are of selected skins, and the tweeds, both domestic and imported, are
cravenettcd. The schoolgirl, as well as her older sister, will be interested
in the three-quarter-length leather coats, which are the finest thing in the
world for all outdoor wear.
