FORESIGHT

CEVERAL years ago the Aeoian Company had the FORESIGHT
to recognize that New York's future center for hgh-class retail
~ merchandising would be Fifth Avenue and 4th Street. AT this
situation Aeoian Hall was built and its doors opened to the
public four years ago this month. The recent arrival in this neigh
borhood of such houses as Altman and McCreery, Tiffany and Cor
ham, verifes the judgment.
Twenty-Five years ago the Aeolan Company had the FORESIGHT
to recognize great possibilities in the method of producing music by
means of perforated musc-roL. This vas at a time when no ono
else was willing to invest capital in what then seemed a visionary idea
The result was the AeoHan, an instrument which became the musical
sensation of its period.
Next, the Aeoian Company had the FORESIGHT to perceive
that this same principle, if it could be applied to tie piano Ohe most
popular of all musical instrumens), would meet a great public need.
success is to-day a matter of common knowledge. In fact a en6ae
industry with over Is manufacturers has been established and follows
where the Pianola leads.
Still further FORESIGHT suggested that the Pianoh be mcorpor>.
ated IN the piano, thus making one complete, compact instrument ThA
Aeoian Company presented the Pianola Piano, which, in its como~s4-
lively short life, has revolutionned the piano industry. Again sscrea
meets with imitation.
Last, but not least, the Aeolan Company had the FORESIGHT
to recognize that if the best results were to be obtained with the PianoIa
Piano, both Piano and Piasoa ought TO be made under the same owror-
ship Then followed the merger of the Weber, Steck, Wheelock and
StuyveSant Piano businesses with the Aeoian COMPANY. There wa.
also FORESIGHT in securing pianos which not only represented a
wide range of price but each of which was already intrenched as the
standard of its class.
HAVE YOU THE FORESIGHT to recognize that the P;,DoI,
Piano is, in verify, the piano of the present day-that. sooner or a.
you will want this marvellous instrument, and that every dav nj d..,
its purchase you ae losing just SO much pleasure and delight in

A Mother
AS a habit maker Is responsible person.
Maternal government is not always a we'll
ordered, systematic affair, depending. as it
does, largely upon impulse, mood and cir
cumstance, and not enough on logic and
principle. An unselfish mother who lacks
balance can prove ruinous to the subjects
under her charge, because In the indulgence
Of her habit of unbalanced unselfshness
she creates In others the habit Of extreme
selfishness.
All the poets and sages have remarked
excellent things about habits, and all have
agreed that it Is as difficult to unlearn error
as 1t Is to unlearn knowledge.
In view OF the fact that habit Is destined
to play an important part in human destiny,
mothers should hold themselves rigidly to
account.
Wisdom is the principal thing: therefore

functions. And one way of showing wisdom
Is by forming good habits. Good habits

the negative viewpoint. The sayings of the
Christ and of many wise men give the posi-
tive aspect.
