1 could not see the person at the piano and the wonderful accentuation of the melody led me to believe that Borne talented artist was at the keyboard. And, then, it was proved to me that I could get practically tho same effect. I'll surely have a Soloello In my home." Miss EVerett's views were concurred in by the other members of the cast. The Soloelle, as its name implies, is a device for giving proper smphasis to the theme or melody of any musical composition. Hand played music rolls, afford the means of faithfully reproducing ill the tempo phrasings of the artist.

The Soloelle goes further It gives Polo control, Not a little control but FULL CONTROL. Not some of the Solo notes BUT ALL THE SOLO NOTES. It automatically selects the solo or boIos to which the operator can give any degree of force independent of other tones appearing at the same time. The accompaniment is also under control from extreme pianissimo to full fortissimo, and is controlled entirely independent of the solo notes, 80 that you can increase or decrease the volume of either the jolo or accompaniment at will.

Safe immm, i lIMUUIIlHOULllll.t I The Secretary of the Navy has awarded contracts amounting to over $3,000,000 to a British bidder for 14 and 16-inch projectiles for the Navy, for the reason that the British firm offered prices very much below those of American manufacturers, eluding ourselves. We know nothing of the basis upon which the British bids were made, but the puh lie is entitled to know the facts upon which we ourselves bid for this work. Two years a no we took contracts to make 4,200 14-inrh shells at i price of $1,515, 000 (with lieavy jirnaltiea for delayed delivery).

Despite the fact that all our experience and facilities have been strained to fulfill these contracts, up to now not a ingle shell hai hern nrrrptnl by the government, although on the work already done We have expended in wanes, elc $117,881 Expended in making tests for the Government 7.0i)0 Making onr total actual expenditure up to date $522,881 And we have not received a SINGLE DOLLAR on these contracts In addition literal enforcement of the contract might involve pay-ment of penalties for delayed delivery already amounting to $078,016. Navy Department tests arc now so sever? that neither we nor, so far as tee know, any other manufacturers have yet been able to produce quantity shells which will meet them. In the light of our experience, and having no other basis, we bid for 16-inch shells approximately the same rate per pound as that upon which the Navy Department actually awarded a 14-inch shell contract one, year ago.1" Milk or Infants Inralids I together with fifteen greatgrandchil demonstrated. -Subititutaa vnu A Nutritious Diet for All Ages.
