its great value, and has succeeded very
well, considering the intensely conserv-

How a Piano Suffers from Heat.

You know the sounding board-the life
of a piano-is forced into the case when it
is made so tightly that it bulges up in the
center. The wood is supposed to be as dry
as possible, but of course it contains some
moisture and gathers lot more on damp
days and in handling. Now when you put
a piano in an overheated, dry room, all
this moisture is dried out, and the board
loses its belly and gets fabby and finally
cracks. Even if it does not crack the tone
loses its resonance and grows thin and
tinny, and the felt cloth and leather used
in the action dry up, the whole mechanism
rattles and the piano is blamed.
How can you prevent it? Easily enough.
Keep growing plant in the room, and as
long as your plant thrives your piano
ought to, or else there is something wrong
with it. just try it, and see how much
more water you will have to pour on the
1ower in the room where your piano is
than on the plants in any other room.
Some people keep huge vase or urn with
a sopping wet sponge in it near or under
the piano. and they do this as long as their
fires are kept up.
Sudden changes from cold to heat will
cause moisture, which is injurious to the
finish and will rust the strings and pins Of
your instrument. But piano in room
that is freezing cold, even 30 dogs. below
zero for that matter, can be gradually
warmed and receive less harm in five years
Of such treatment than it will during one
winter in the same climate if subjected to
a continuous heat of 20 degs.-Interview
