On EVERYBODY Observation-Disclosures
of the great National Regeneration Of
Health, Plantation Bitters, are on every
body's tongue. This gratuitous viva yoce
advertising is better than all the paid for
putting to which the owners Of bogus
bitters are obliged to resort. 1t has a
spontaneous heartiness about it which
carries conviction to the mind Of the
auditor. But it is a well known fact
that the proprietors Of the Plantation
Bitters have never relied upon news
paper bolstering to establish the success
of preparation which owes its aston
ishing popularity mainly to the oral tes-
timony Of the thousands who have either
experienced or been the eye witness Of
the immense physical good it has
wrought throughout the length and

Mr.. FLORENCE ZIEGFELD. Director of the Chi
cago Academy of Music:
Ny Dear Director The reputation of the
American pianos was established everywhere
by the extraordinary sensation they created at
the Paris Exhibition of 1867. Since that time
several Of the LEADING piano manufacturers in
Europe have found it expedient to construct
pianos Of the American kind. The distn-
gushing advantages of the latter-peculiar
richness of tone and extreme solidity Of con-
suuction--were evident to eye and ear in the
most admirable instrument manufactured hv
Halet, Davis & Co.. Of Boston. which was
tested here yesterday.
Il is highly desirable that the use and enjoy
uents Of these instruments should be attain
able for European pianists With distin-
g1ished regards, l am, yours truly, F. LIszT -
Com.
