Charles F.. Osgood, OF Boston, the
owner of the largest and most success
full furniture business in New England,
if not i'm the country, was one of the
few large buyers among furniture deal
ers during the hard times of last year,
who did a great business, always pay
ing cash. moving on as if times were
good, while rival concerns were going
to pieces right and left all about. His
credit from Michigan to Maine became
so conspicuously solid that he was
one of the most talked of young men
in commercial circles.
With limited means, but we'll bred,
full of character. straightforward, and
well-educated, he started in business
only few years ago in a very moder-
ate way in d little store on fremont
street in Boston. The city began to
know him quickly. His business rapid
ly assumed big proportions. A news
paper one day interviewed him in the
column of Men Worth Knowing"
"To what do you attribute your sue
cess" asked the interviewer.
Mr.. Osgood replied very shortly:
when in doubt, buy the best goods"
He is known everywhere today by
Work told on Mr. Osgood's health.
With characteristic Judgment he put
his reliance upon natures best remedy
to make him well again. The best Of
medical treatment was at his disposal;
there certainly was no physician that a
man in his position could not employ.
He got the right advice and followed It,.
Today he is perfectly we'll, good-tem-
pered, aggressive and energetic to the
last degree.
In a letter to the proprietors of
Paine's celery compound, written Sept.
g, 1897, Mr.. Osgood said.
II have derived great benefit from
the use of Paine's celery compound,
and can unhesitatingly recommend it
for building up the system when run

MUSICAL NOTES.

Quite a. history is connected with the
renowned Maggini violin with which
Henri MaIteau has delighted thousands
of admirers. Originally it belongs to the
emperors Of Austria, then, Maria Theresia
presented the Instrument to favorite
Belgian violinist by the name of kennis,
and the violin remained in the kennis
family many years after the death OF the
artist, until Leonard, who was the pos
SCISSOR of a magnificent Stradivarius violin
which he had used for a number of years,
grew tired Of his instrument and one day
asked de Beriot, the great Viollnlst,
whether he did not know of a fine violin
for him, when de Beriot told Leonard of
this famous instrument owned by the
Kenns family. Leonard saw the instru-
ment, played Upon it and was so enchant-
ed by it that he bought it then and there.
After the death of Leonard, the violin
was promised TO Ovide Musin, but as he
vas not viking to pay ten thousand
francs for it to Nine. Leonard. she sent
a telegram to Marteau stating that he
could have the instrument, Marteau fairly
Cushed to the house of Nine. Leonard,
paid the 10000 francs and left a happy
boy, in the possession of the precious
violin.
Mr.. Henry Wolfsohn received letter
from the great artist in which he stated
that he has completely recovered, and
finds that he is now stronger than ever
before. He is happy to return to this
country to fulhll his Obligations, and at
the same time thanks the American pub
lie for the great sympathy shown to him
during his recent illness.

The Wilkes Barre Times speaks as fol-
lows of a coming concert in that city
in which Scrantonians appear: The
people of the First Methodist church are
proud of the magnificent organ now IN
their possession, and are determined to
make the best possible use of it. The cons
cert given some time ago by the world
famous Clarence Eddy was a great finan-
clal success and lives in history as one OF
Wilkes-Ba great musical events. 1t
has entered the mind of the good pastor
that the high price of admission which
the services of such famous artist make
necessary, prevents many people inter-
ested in music from attending. To over
come this objectionable feature the direc-
tors of the church have secured for a very
reasonable amount the services of the
celebrated local musician, j. Alfred PEN
nington, orgaEist of the Finn Park church
of Scranton, and on next Tuesday even
ing, Oct. 26 he will be heard in the First
Methodist church, No regular admission
fee will be charged, but a silver Offering
will be taken at the door. Mr.. Pennington
is well known Educated in Paris under
those greatest teachers, Guilmant and Du-
Bois, and in Berlin under Houpt and Rel
mann, he has taught in Oberln college
and has held some of the best musical
positions that our country has to offer.
II is expected that his recital will be not
at all inferior to previous concerts in this
vicinity given by artists of international
notoriety. The quartette of the church,
the members OF which have caused so
much favorable comment. will endeavor
on this occasion to outdo all their pre-
vious efforts. Their part of the pros
gramme will be as follows; An anthem
by the quartette; Michael Watson's fa-
nous composition, Babylon, by Miss Bar
mum; Miss Timberman win render The
Lost Chord, by Sullivan; while Mr.. Will
Jams, tenor, and Mr.. Smith, basso, will
sing that standard concert duet, "The
Fishermen" by " Gabussi. a song which
will test to the utmost the power and
range of their voices.
