The Sun Is Rising Out
of the Ocean
and the morning star, a diamond more
brilliant than any of Queen Victoria's
jewels, has hidden itself in the bosom of
the sk
A wide belt of carmine, silky-looking
ribbon ties together the sea and the green
shores which have been permanently
wedlocked for centuries.
While gazing at it all, there comes
to me the ancient fable that follows
The Story of the Sunflower
per
haps almost forgotten.
Clytie was a water nymph who loved
the sun and worshiped him as a god. She
constantly gazed at the object of her
affections, when he rose in the mornings
and while he passed along on his daily
course. She had no eyes for any other
object. At last her limbs rooted and her
face became tHe sunflower, which turns
on its stem so as always to look at the
sun.
Even a flower can teach us -a lesson,
and the daily life of the Store, where
many come, offers much of beauty to see,
hear and think about.

One of the Most Notable of All
Phonographs Is the Cheney
The urge of a music master's high ambition to aid his pupils
his desire that they should hear correct interpretations of the
masterpieces of musicbrought forth the Cheney.
Forest Cheney, violinist and teacher of music, built the repro
ducing instrument which bears his name, solely for use in his
own studio.
He planned a phonograph embodying the principles of
acoustics employed in the resonating chambers of pipe organs
and a resonator carved from the pattern of the violin he loved.
Masters of music were so quick to recognize the musical
merit of the Cheney that in a very short time it was placed on
the market so all the world could have and enjoy its perfect
reproductions.
Among the exceptional features of the Cheney are:
"THE ALL-WOOD ACOUSTIC
THROAT," which gives control over tones
and enhances their beauty.
"THE CHENEY ORCHESTRAL
CHAMBERS," a scientific method of con
trolling and developing tones in perfect
balance.
"THE VIOLIN RESONATOR, OR
AMPLIFIER," which, like the violin, im
proves with age.
"CORRECT METHOD OF REPRO
DUCTION" for both vertical and lateral
cut records.
"TWELVE DISTINCT TONE VOL
UMES" made possible by the Cheney
Needle Adjuster and four sizes of needles.
"BREECH-LOADING DEVICE FOR
NEEDLES," greatly simplifying the proc
ess of needle-change.
Master craftsmen, the finest in tho
country, fashion tho Cheney Cabinets, and
i MM I
every one is a work of art from the Model
1 at $125 to Art Model 112 at $G25.
Come in and hear and compare the
Cheney for youiself. Our Phonograph
Salon is equipped with large, comfortable
hearing rooms and courteous and able
salesmen are at your service.
