THIRTY-FIvE THOUSAND Now In USE
Every Instrument Warranted for FiveYears

| \ presenting the AUTOMATIC ORGAN, we
i boldly announce the greatest triumph IN musi-
cal instruments of the age. During the past half
century, the French ana Germans have manufac-
tured reed instruments with double bellows, and
two pedals for the feet To operate, but the want of
the reversed or Exhaustion Bellows, twh ch is the
only bellows used IN our instruments, made II i'm
possible Tor them to produce the mellow, rich and
musical tone tor which instruments cele-
brated.
Another objection tn this method of blowing
was, that both ieet being occupied, no opporIunI-
~ was offered for the management of the swell
Within the past two ears, instruments construct
ed on this European plan CT 90 double blowers,'
have been manufactured IN this country, and to
counterfeit this difficulty want of 4 swell) lever
has been projected from the centre of the insIru
ment, to act upon the swell, and operated by the
knee. The Inconvenience and contortion neces
ssry to effect this object disagreeable enough
to gentleman, but 10 a lady the of such an
appendage Is nearly impossible
Our AuJmatIe device OtyIates this difficulty en-
treiy, the simple act OF blowing with more less
force giving this desired increase or decrease IN
the volume of tone. For seventeen wears the
superior excellence of our Mcleod epns has not
been questioned, and tor two years past the enor-
nous demand has made II impossible tor US to
meet orders promptly. With our increased
facilities, we Ieel warranted ia assuring our pat
that their orders will be promptly met, and
solicit continuance of their patronage.

"Smal things"-such as liltle incidents

the God of providence whose hand is TO
be gratefully recognized in the facts re-
corded in the following paragraphs from
Halls journal
In 1912, wounded soldier was lying
helpless on the plains of Chambletle, a
few miles below New Orleans. A youth
passing that way kneeled at his side, in
quledias 10 his wants, conveyed him TO q
shelter, and remained with him until he
was able 10 leave for his home in the city.
Nearly half century later, the wounded
soldier died, but old judah Touro never
forgo, the youth who helped him on the
battlefield, and left him fifty thousand
dollars in money, besides some duties 10
perform which eventually yielded Mr..
Shepherd 100000 more.
