There was young lady from Glare
Very bright ana surprisingly tar.
Who contracted hutch.
And thus got In touch
With the fashionable craze for tho hare.
From the start she made money galore,
And being successful bought more,
Until her pens grew apace,
And at loss for moro space,
She counted her pens by the score.
She was quite society swell.
And while doing exceedingly we'll.
Was alarmed lest her aims
Should forfeit her claims
To station and rank as belle.

Was praised for her wonderful tact.

"There are plenty Of people," said a

their pianos that attention which Is
needed TO keep them IN their most per

and dealers OF course are looking after
the tuning OF their pianos In stock

You don't hear pianos out OF tune IN a
piano warcroom. They never let them
get out OF tune there. They aim. In
fact. at Keeping them as near perfec-

I'VE are pretty sure to find in every

pleasing quality comes from its being
