A WONDERFUL INSTRUMENT.
C. F. stayner to Daynes Music Com
pany

Messrs. Daynes Music Company, Salt
Lake City.
Gentlemen: Feeling quite an inter
est in the. Pianola, 1 am glad to write
something concerning it. at your re-
quest.
First let me say WELCOME Plan
OLA
This instrument will certainly prove
to be one of extreme usefulness.
That people in general can, by. means
of the PianOla, become familiar with
almost the entire literature for piano,
means much. Love for the best in mu-
sic will surely be the outcome. Today
the pianos which are used but little
are probably greater in numberf than
those which are used much. The Plan
ola Will reverse this, 1 think
The piano players who are filing
homes with the best of music are few
indeed. The PianoIa will change this.
as it brings this accomplishment with
in the reach of, We may say, all. The
principle Of tone production being cor
rect in the PianOla, the tone is, of
course, good. Owing to the fact that
the PianOla produces better and better
results, according to the musical abil-
ity of the performer, genuine music
study will increase. As the PianOIa
requires so little mechanical ability.
the performer s attention can be given
to the study of the music itself. Taste
and judgment should, therefore, unfold
quickly if one is not already awake
mlsically.
A deeper interest in the playing Of
great pianists Will naturally result

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.
A New Dessert.

Here is a new dessert, the constant
longing of all housekeepers. Put half a
box of gelatine to soak in a teacupful
of cold water. Take half a can of
peaches. drain the fruit, and measure
the juice, adding to it enough boiling
water to make pint of liquid alto
gether; stir this into the soaked gela-
tine All to this half cup of sugar, a
tiny pinch of salt, the juice of one
lemon; strain, and set away to cool
Cut the peaches into strips, and line
a mould with them When the jelly
begins to harden pour it into the
mould, and set it away on the ice.
Serve when perfectly hard and cold
with whipped cream, Favored very del
icately with almond.

Potato Fritters.

Take some potatoes. boil and peel
them, pass them through sieve or
colander with a spoon. Then take some
good cream and mix it with the pota-
toes till they are a little thicker than
batter.
Take three eggs, well beaten, and a
little salt and mix the ingredients well
up together Then fry them in a pan
of hot lard and send them up as you
would apple fritters. Sprinkle a little
salt over them before sending up.

Breaking Glass.

One cause of fine glass breaking
when put in hot water is that it is laid
in bottom downward. Turn the piece
upside down, and let the Gvater rise
slowly inside the dish; this will save
many fractures Cut glass should be
washed in water in which little soap
is dissolved, then rinsed in pure water
of the same temperature with a very
slight dash of ammonia. Dry with a
sole rag. and polish with a brush; this
retains the luster of the glass.

When clothes are taken off the body
at night they should be turned inside
out and hung up in the air-not thrown
in heap on a chair or floor. This
should especially be done with what
is worn next to the skin, and children
should be taught this habit quite early.

grandchildren who were, and are stu,
looking for desirable matches. The
morning after the Whitefield-C Carnegie
wedding the couple sailed from New
York for Europe, where they roamed
from place to place for year.
On their return to this country the
Canegies found so many residences
awaiting them that they scarcely knew
where to locate. A lovely home in
Pennsylvania had its attractions; so
had beautiful residence at Green

Crest, and which looked far over the

MANY HOMES.

Soon Mrs. Carnegie found herself at
the head of a London house, and when
a little daughter came three years ago
to bless this family Of wealth, there
was some uncertainty as to where she

The Intermountain Catholic. (Salt Lake City [Utah] ;) 1899-1920, 1900-04-28

Mrs. Carnegie had always retained
a love Of her native Land, and when
Mr.. Carnegie decided to build home
in New York. she was overjoyed. About
a year ago the handsomest building
site in Gotham was selected and plans
were drawn uo for a house which
should cover thirty city lots and which,
standing in the most expensive part Of
Fifth avenue, should be surrounded
with flowers and grass, as though it
were in the country.
The house is OF steel, marble and
limestone; and is one Of the most ex-
quisite residences in New York, where
all the magnates of the world come
for the pleasure, It is said, of living
part of the year opposite Central park
Many of the fine houses are open only
for three months at the first of the
year, when the park is denuded of its
bloom, but the lovely vista attracts
them; and Gotham life is dear to the
hearts of the danes of the family.
Mrs. Carnegie, though transferred
from comparative poverty to great
wealth, showed no change beyond that
inseparable from millions. Well edu-
Gated, a fine musician, a linguist of
merit, handsome and of graceful mien,
She began at once to give forth from
her abundance Hers is said to De the
mind which inahgated Mr. Carnegie to
give away his wealth; hers the hand

aty Mrs. Carnegie, when she Urged
the retirement Of the steel king, is
said to have asked him to settle
sufficient sum upon the little daughter
to make her comfortable for life; but
beyond that she wanted nothing. All
the rest should be given away as freely
as it had been given.

MUSICAL CHARITY.

While Mr.. Carnegie chose libraries as
a medium for his philanthropy, Mrs.
Carnegie developed many musical
schemes. Remembering one day a New
York woman whom she had known
years before, she sat down and wrote
to her, asking what she could do for
her-if che wanted anything.
The New York woman wrote hack
that she had a daughter who wanted
a musical education. By return mail
there came back from Scotland a very
substantial check, with instructions to
use it Immediately, as more would fol-
low.
Mrs. Carnegie is interchangeable in her
ambition for raising the standard of
American music. II she hears of any
poor, struggling musician, either man
or woman, no matter what the nation
ality, she ferret5 out his or her where
abouts, and Without any loss Of time
arranges more congental environments
and brighter prospects of study. She
ie full of magnetism. and often has
been heard to say to her friends: II
can tell tbs instant l look at persons
whether they have any genius for music
or not. l think this is a peculiar gift to
me from Providence, for 1 never make
a mistake in helping those Who l fec
are worthy"
