After Much Thought and
Observation, to Some of Us
it seems plain that many parents do not
properly Value or treat wisely their fast
growing children. Quite a large percentage
of the children are little, men and little
women with good thoughts of their own
which need encouragement.
It will not hurt the boys to split wood or
run errands, nor harm the girls to wash
dishes or sweep a floor.
But toadd to their duty of learning their
public school lessons for the next day, the
running of errands, the bringing up of coal
from the cellar, and keeping them constantly
on the go at something, with no time to play,
seems a hardship. It seems like what a
mother told her little daughter, "If you don't
look out, I will wipe up the floor with you."
A horse or a dog likes a pat on the back.

Women's White Novelty
Gowns in an Important
Clearaway
Important because, first, it
involves two hundred dresses.
Second, because the dresses
are among the finest of tho
season.
Third, because their new
prices read $50 to $100 a sav
ing of $25 to $50 on every
dress.
There arc Canton crcpe3,
crepes do chine, Georgette
crepes nnd some fancy weaves,
such as a satin-blocked crepe.
As for the styles, there is al
most every type imaginable,
from a heavy white crepe de
chine with horizontal lines of
black hemstitching, to a white
chiffon enriched with white
silk embroidery and bends.
Others of these frocks have
just a little decoration of finely
pleated ribbon ruflles; or
drawn work; others, again, arc
fringed; 'others have circles of
ruffled satin ribbon. One ex
quisite example has dull blue
beading and a blue lined sash.
Each gown is exquisite, and
the entire group contains some
thing for almost any hour of
the day.

The
Brunswick
Brunswick 107 $125
Music is often called the
universal language, and so
it is.
But language can be garbled,
clipped and debased by un
couth, careless or incomplete
methods of expression, or by a
harsh or strident voice, even
though .the actual words em
ployed be drawn "from purest
wells of English undefiled."
It is the same with music.
To truly charm the car, par
ticularly a cultivated ear, the
composition itself must be ex
cellent of its kind, whatever
the kind; tiie performer must
be skilled in his art, and the
.nstrument of reproduction, be
it the humnn throat or tho
sound-box of a phonograph,
must be full-toned, true, sweet
and sensitive.
If it is a phonograph, it
must also be ABSOLUTELY
faithful in its reproduction of
the music just as it was
played or sung by the artist
when at his very best.
The Brunswick
is one of the four makes of
phonographs which this Store
is willing to sell and to back
with its guarantee, because we
know it to be equipped with
the means of correct and scien
tific reproduction of records.
Thi3 does not mean merely
its own records. At a turn of
the wrist you can play any
record on it, with the correct
weight, nnd with the correct
needle, (whether steel, fiber,
sapphire or diamond) placed
at the correct angle.
Nothing to put off, nothing
to put on!
This ease of adaptation is
accomplished through the ex
clusive and unusual feature of
The Ultona arm.
Another unusual and valu
able feature of the BRUNS
WICK is the oval all-wood tone
amplifier, or sound-box, which
eliminates all harsh or strident
tones.
Our Phonograph Store can
bliow fourteen different models
in RRUNSWICKS at a price
lange of $125 to $175, and in
styles that embrace not only
tho simpler upright shapes,
but a number of elegant period
models in console as well as
upright style.
The model pictured above is
$125, and may be had in either
nnhogany or oak; dimensions,
13x19x21 inches.

To People Who Think of
Buying a Player-Piano
Intense family thinking goes into the selection of a
player-piano.
First of all, the whole household wants a good, '
sweet-toned, TRUE instrument.
No amount of automatic playing compensates for
a rattling tin-pan of a "player."
For this reason, among others, we strongly indorse
the
Lindeman Player-Piano
which has behind it the eighty-five years of piano
making that have made the Lindeman piano famous
in this and other cities.
Into the making of the Lindeman player goes all the
knowledge and experience and skill and musical under
standing that have helped to make a high-class piano
since 1836. This counts for much in the musical per
fection of the player instrument.
The Lindeman is a fine piano or a perfect player
piano, just as you want to use it.
"Any one can play it," with knowledge of music or
without. But to one who understands music its player
action responds with an infinite variety of gradations
of tone and delicate nuances of expression which make
its performances as much a delight to the finished musi
cian as to the amateur.
We have a limited number of these fine Lindeman
player-pianos which may be purchased now for
$525
Their usual price everywhere is $225 more.
They may be purchased on convenient extended
terms.
Vr'e will ship them anywhere within a 200-mile
radius without snipping charge.
