harmony of sound. Years of experience,
thorough love of art, and the constant recog-
milton and pursuit of high standard OF
ideal-these are the chief requisites of the
men who would make piano-fortes IN this
age which will meet the requirements of a
fastldious and critical muslc-loying public.
Miller Has Become q Household Name
Throughout the Country.
There are small number of makers in
the United States, who, by carefully keep
ing these requisites in view, have made an
enyiable reputation for themselves and for
their instruments makers whose names are
as much household words as Hawthorne or
Dickens or Shakespeare. There is probably
no name that stands higher in public regard
in this direction than that of Henry f.
Miller, OF Boston. The Miller piano is seen
and heard wherever the civilizing and rein
ing influence of music makes itself felt. No
other makers have more steadily kept in
view the prime necessities of perfect piano.
forte construction; no other makers have
worked more lovingly and with a truer APP
probation Of what constitutes complete art,
and in consequence no other makers have
reaped more thorough harvest of golden
appreciation and regard from the artistic
and music-loving element Of modern society.
The house OF Miller has been characterized
from its inception by most thorough and
complete ability and desire to produce only
the most perfect models of piano-forte cou-
struction When Henry Il. Miller, ST., laid
the foundations of the present immense bust
ness in 1868 he brought 10 the work what
may truly be said to have been a life expert
ence. Not only had he given twelve of the
previous best years of his life to a practical
study and thorough mastery of every branch
of the business in connection with other
piano-forte manufacturers, but even in his
early youth he had a marvellous genius Ms
a mechanician and was celebrated as a mu-
stefan OF wonderful precocity and ability

lighted have many of the leading yocalists
been with the Miller piano on account of its
wonderful purity of tone and unexcelled quail

themselves on record being Emma Thursby,

Briliant Future Prospects-soms Noted

The popularity of the Miller piano is
constantly on the increase in every part of
the world. During the coming season the
Henry f. Miller Artists Grand will accom-
pany Andres and Doerner IN tour of the
United States. They are to play at the star
course in fremont Temple, Boston, where
there will be 5000 people to welcome them.
They will also appear in other large concerts
in the various musical centres of the coun-
try. The Miller piano has already been
used in that famous course of concerts in
which the Seidl Orchestra, of New York,
recently played. Miss Neatly Stevens has

mant under its keys Of ivory and ebony are
all the outpourings of the great musical
genuses Of all ages all the wonderful mel
odies which have in years past swayed the
hearts OF nations. When this Is realized it
will be seen how much society owes to the
man who conscientiously spends his life in
the making of a perfect piano, putting not
only genius, put his whole heart and soul
into the work.
Such man was Henry +. Miller, ST.,
the founder of one Of the best.known piano
houses in the world, and one of the rarest
and most favored geniusea in the musical
circles of musical Boston decade ago. No
man was ever better fitted both by nature
and training to carry out chosen line of
life labor, and no man ever devoted himself
with more patient energy and untiring love
to attain high standard of IDEAL The
result was that before Henry +. Millers
death, in 1884, he had succeeded in devel-
oping line OF piano fortes which had been
hailed with the greatest delight by artists
from nearly every civilized country on the
globe as embodying combination of excel
lent qualities which rendered them perfect
musical instruments, indeed
Henry f, Miller was lover of music
and he was inspired with never-dying idea
of giving to the world the opportunity of
listening to music as pure in melody, as
rich and perfect in harmony and as sweet
in its essential characteristics as the human
brain, aided by all that is best in science,
art and mechanical genius, was capable OF
producing He succeeded in accomplishing
his objects even beyond all expectation, and
nobody can deny that the man who accom-
plishes what Henry #. Miller finally &C.
complished is not many PAGES behind the

was worthy to be classed with the Baehs

none the less worthy to be classed with the

critics of bodies and theart of harmony, hav-
ing IN view the scientific application of these
principles to the building OF pano-fortes in
order to obtain the highest results possible.
His graduating thesis was ON the subject of
acoustics. As each OF the sons left school,
with minds well stored with the very latest
and fullest that science aud art could teach
then they were placed by Mr.. Miller in the
various departments of the business in which
hey have become proficient. Walter II.
Miller, even while attending school, used to
keep the factory books for his father, thus
carly gaining a clear insight into the prac-
tcal workings of the big hive of industry.
Upon his graduation, he spent some time in
reading law in the office of Hon. A. A. Ran
ney. ex-member OF Congress, in order that
he might be better fitted for the commercial
part of the business, aud this legal training
has stood him in good stead. He has the gem
eral management of the retail sales depart
ment of the business, and has made for him
self host of friends on account of his in
tegrity aud fair dealing.
1t is probable that there is no other firm
of similar size in the world doing such an
immense business as the Henry Il, Miller 81
sons Piano Company, which is character
zed by more thorough unanimity and
more perfect accord on all matters where
the welfare of the business is at heart.

As the perfect pano-forte can only be the
result Of perfect workmanship, and as per-
feet workmanship can only be accomplished
with perfect anpurtenanees and surround
hugs, one would naturally expect to find the
mandatory of the Henry L. Miller Com
pany complete in every respect The

art of piano making in its elimination can
testify that this is indeed so. The building
in which all the manufacturing work is done
is one of the handsomest and most COM
pletely fitted business buildings of modern

When Henry r. Miller, ST., found that
the business which he had established was
growing beyond all bounds he began, with
| practical acumen, to cast about for provision
for its future great development, which he
saw was coming. He accordingly pur-
chased one OF the subst. atial and commodi-
GUS buildings, erected at an estimated ex-
pense of over 100000 by the late Cyrus

the State Sales have been made among
every class OF music loving and intellectual
people, including leading musicians. bank
ers, merchants, professional men, ministers
and public institutions, and in every case
the sale of piano has resulted in gaining
one more firm friend to the Henry F. Miller
instruments.
The piano has been largely used at con-
certs and other public gatherings in Phila-
delphia at the Academy OF Music, Acad,
envy of the Fine Arts Association Hall, the
various theatres, churches and elsewhere
and its tones are familiar to most concert
goers. 1t has been used exclusively in the
delightful annual course OF the Young
Mems Christian Association, and in all the
concerts given by Carl Gaertner, at which it
has been favorably heard, both with and
without an orchestra.
The Miller pianos have been sold to
great many public institutions in this city
and throughout Pennsylvania. The Miller

would, to be sure, present the outward form,
and appearance of q piano, and when the
keys were struck would produce certain
sounds, comprised within what might, per-
haps, be regarded as rough octaves, but
these sounds would be far from musical.
Every man engaged in the construction OF
a perfect piano should be an artist in his
line of work. Intelligence and love of
thorough, artistic workmanship should
underlie all his labor. To such fine and
delicate degree has the art of modern piano
construction been brought that not particle
of wood, metal or material of any kind
goes into an instrument turned out by the
better class of makers that is not specially
selected and specially worked with view to

cheaper and prices little nearer those Of
pianos OF less merit.
Mr. Miller's earliest efforts were directed
toward the production of an ideal square
piano. twenty-five years ago this was the
type of instrument most called for by the
musical people of the country. To the de.
velopment of this then popular style Mr..
Miller gave his untiring effort, and the re-
suit was that the house turned out such
square pianos as have to this day been re-
garded as superior to any other of this class.
Later on the call for the upright piano
gradually increased, until it became neces-
sary to manufacture this style in addition to
the square pianos. For number of years
the growth of the upright piano had been
checked by the lack of success which had
been attained by other manufacturers, but

How the Business Grew and Developed.
A Success from the Start
From the very start, in 1863, the Miller
piano began to make sterling reputation
for ITSELF AT first it was only home sue
cess in Boston and throughout adjacent
portions of New England. But merit soon
tells, and it was but comparatively short
time before large demand started every
where for the piano. But the house was
conservative, and the Miller being high
priced piano from the very start, it was
slower in growth than 1t would have been

people all over the country as one
of the centres of musical art. The
fine building is beautifully located at 1866
fremont street, directly opposite the his
toric Boston Common, and is the virtual
centre of the piano trade IN this musical
city. large and elegant stock of instru-
ments of every grade manufactured by this
firm is always exhibited in the elegantly
fitted saesrooms on the first floor. Here
may be seen and heard some of the finest and
most beautiful toned pianos-either grand,
upright or square to be found IN the world.
In this building, five stories in height,
are commodious rooms for teachers in
music-its fourth floor being given up en-
tirely to this purpose. Here also is the
