and permit us 10 rear our children under the
influence of the nobiest natures, so the Piano,
with simple incanations bring us up from their
sleep, the brotherhood OF song, and persuades
thom to dwell among US.
OF the enormous variety Of Pianos manufac-
turod, IL mu9t be admitted none have contributed
30 much to the happiness ofour homes, CO those
celebrated instruments, used by the thousands
IN every quarter OF the globe, and manufactured
by the world renowned house Of Messre. WIN.

been before tho public for more thca 40 years,
with steady OF popularity, until to-day

The success Of the "reform"

seven negroes in the Board of

best evidence that it is @ tri-

are still several grades better
than any other Washington
Radicals.
