The Family's Proudest Heirloom Is
THE GRAND PIANO
STILL its golden-voiced chords seem te sing of
the far-away days of grandmother's girlhood.
What romance, what memories are entwined
with the life of that faithful instrument !
Three times the tender-aged girls of a proud old
family the daughters and their daughters have first
learned te run the scales en its still glossy keyboard.
A Grand Piane that has been mere than an enter
tainment in the life of the family it has been an in
fluence and a guide. Unconsciously ideals and dreams
were woven from the deep, rich melody that flowed from
the heart of the piano.
Most likely its vibrant strings first sang carols of
praise and devotion as all in the household gathered
round it for the evening prayer; then, hew plaintively
it echoed the songs of sentiment and love "I Dreamt
That I Dwelt in Marble Halls" or "After the Ball."
Even today the old piano seems te rock and sway
with new life as it bursts forth with some happy, reckless
dance air.
Se it is with all geed pianos, they are the natural
heirlooms that pass from generation te generation and
carry with them the pride of ancestry and the inborn
love of home.
What a glorious company of Grand
Pianos is at Wanamaker's!
Pianos produced by the makers who created the
heirlooms of today. Every one has sprung from the
famous old instruments of the past, they are children
of a proud lineage and destined te be the heirlooms of
tomorrow.
Te name them ever is te name the best in music

Furniture Crowding In.
The Wanamaker Furniture $tore occupies what is
believed te be the largest space devoted te furniture,
by any retail store in the world.
But there aren't many square yards te
spare, especially in view of the daily precession
of new goods coming in.
Only a Wanamaker stock could fill such a fine
acreage. Ne ether stock that we knew of could fill mere
than a third of it.
It would be a pity if we were te feel vainglorious
about this. We have very clear and happy recollections
of the time when our Furniture Stere and furniture
stock were ever se much smaller; but we recollect also
that while we believed we were doing splendidly, there
was then something about the whole business that por
tended vastly greater things ahead.
In the meantime these have come te pass, but in
the meantime, also, our visions have expanded and we
are still growing and, what is mere important, still
learning in that best of schools, the school of practical
experience.
One of the things we learned long age is that there
is no particular distinction in having the greatest furni
ture business in the world unless it has been built up en a
foundation of real advantage te all the people.
We don't want our furniture business or any ether
branch of the Wanamaker Stere service te grew by a
hair's-breadth beyond the measure of its helpfulness
te the public.
They will be much interested by the stock of furni
ture new en our floors, because it is just such a stock
as they would expect te find in a store that has grown
like a sound oak tree and strengthened with the years.
A Brogue That Only Master Sh,Qm
Makers Could Turn Out
A glance tells the whole story, and men by the scer
have called it the most conventional, most solid, most prae-
tical brogue they have come across in a city-wide search.
And being a brogue, it must be fashionable. v
In a word, it is of Scotch grain calf, as geed as any
leather could be. with solid white oak soles and rope stitched'
at the seams.
Naturally it is tan. but a different tan, being extremely1
dark. The price is $12.50. ft
