You want to hear Caruso sing?
Why?
Because he's the greatest of
all tenors.
You want to hear Elman,
Kreisler or Kubelik play?
Of course—everybody does, because the rarest thing in art
is mastery. It is the thing which is given only to the chosen few
and then only after a lifetime of effort, but you destroy all that
when with the aid of some foolish little accessory you attempt
to "modify" the supreme inspiration of a great krtist to suit your
own ideas of interpretation.
That's why we say "Always use Victor Machines with Victor Records and
Victor Needles—the combination. There is no other way to get the unequaled Victor
tone" in exact accord with the artists' interpretation. Victrolas sls to $250.
Victors $lO to SIOO. Terms to suit your convenience, if desired.

ANAEMIC PEOPLE^
Need More Iron in the Blood.
If you are anaemic, you need more
Iron in your blood, and the tell-tale
symptoms are a pale face—colorless
lips, ashen finger nails, poor circula
tion, and short breath, and more ser
ious diseases are easily contracted
v/hen in this condition.
Mr. W. H. Hodges, of Kansas City,
Mo., says:—"l suffered from the ef
fects of bad blood, was run-down,
dizzy, had headaches and did not feel
like working. I had tried Beef Iron
and Wine without any help. After
taking Vlnol four days I noticed an im
provement and its continued use built
up my blood and my bad feelings dis
appeared like magic."
The bad effects of poor, devitalized
blood cannot be overestimated, and it
is the peptonate of Iron and the true
cod liver extracts contained in Vinol,
together with beef peptone, that en
riches the blood, improves the circu
lation and In this natural manner
builds up heaJth and strength. Try it
on our guarantee.

Adopt 5-Year-01d Boy
New York, Oct. 22.—A small boy,
so small he was little more than a
habv, sat, crving one evening on the
steps of St. Patrick's Cathedral.
Crowds passed nim by, but presently a
woman spoke to the little chap. He
was lost, he told her. He didn't know
how he had got on the cathedral steps.
He didn't even know who he was,
although the name of Austin McCleary
was sewed in his clothes.
The woman turned him over to the
police—clearly he had been abandoned
—and as a foundling he was sent to
St. Shristopher's Home, in Dobbs
Ferry, N. Y.
That was in September of last year.
To-day Fin ley J. Shepard and his wife,
who was Miss Helen Gould, appeared
before Surrogate William A. Sawyer,
of 'West Chester county, sitting in
White Plains, and formally adopted
Ihe youngster as their son, to be known
in future as Finley Jay Shepard. With
the signature of Mr. Sawyer to the pa

known as "Joe Doe. No. 104," to the
son and probable heir of one of the
wealthiest couples in this country. The
lad is 5 years old.

EDISON TALKS
OVER TELEPHONE
First Time He Uses Instrument,
Voice Is Carried
3,400 Miles
At the Edison Laboratory in Orange,
N. J., last night in honor of the thirty
sixth anniversary of the invention of
the electric light and the celebration
of Edison Day at the San Francisco
Fair, a remarkable demonstration of
the transcontinental telephone was
given.
One of the unique numbers on the
program was the transmission by wire
less telephone of the diamond disc I
phonographic record of an address to
Mr. Edison by Miller R. Hutchison as
chief engineer.
William H. Meadowcroft. of
the Edison Company, talked to his
chief in San Francisco, and Charles
Edison and Theodore Edison, sons of
the Inventor, talked from Orange to
their mother.
Mr. Edison from San Francisco, I
made the following statement: "It
may seem strange to those wlho know
my work on the telephone carbon
transmitter, but this is the first time
I had ever carried on a conversation
over the telephone. To talk across a
line 3,400 miles on my first attempt at
a telephone conversation seemed to be
a pretty big undertaking, but the engi
neers of the Bell System have tnade it i
easier to talk that distance than it i
used to be to talk 34 miles."
Afterward this statement was made
by J. J. Carty at Chicago: "It is true
that we have succeeded in transmitting
speech across the Atlantic Ocean from
the Navy Tower at Arlington, Va., to
the Eiffel Tower at Paris, using the
same apparatus that we have pre
viously employed in talking to Pana
ma, Mare Island and Honolulu. The
trial made from Arlington last night
and reported to the newspapers to
day. employed the new A. T. & T.
wireless system and was conducted by
our engineers. Carl A. Heising, B. B.
Webb, and others of our staff at Ar
lington. Va., and H. E. Shreeve and A.
H. Curtis, two of our engineers at the
Eiffel Tower at Paris."

Plan to Compromise
on Proposed Ship Bill
Washington, D. C\, Oct. 22.—Admin
i istration officials are considering
I changes In the McAdoo plan for a
I government-owned merchant marine
which may pave the way for the pass
pge of the measure at the next Con
gress. The changes by which the
President may meet the opposition of
Democrats in the House and Senate
project are:
First, a provision defining the spe
cific object of the measure as the de
velopment" of trade with the Latin-
American countries, or. at most, with
the Latin-American countries and the
Orient, thus insuring against govern
ment competition with other American
lines.
Second, a provision that the govern
ment shall not permanently engage
In the shipping business, but that when
trade lines are fully established the
government shall withdraw.
Some of the President's advisers be
lieve he will assent to a harmony plan
of this character, as the shipping bill
in the form suggested by Mr. McAdoo
seems to have a rocky road ahead even
in the Democratic party.
