.tionally breeds quarrels, and these in
time may wreck the nervous system;
but in itself croquet is a placid, ruml-
native pursuit. The question whether
the contact with the grass is soothing
to the tired mind might be settled. one
would fancy, without any reference
whatever to croquet. To go barefoot
might well be a constituent part of the
artihcially simple life which 50 many
great authorities commend. 1t might
be considered in the same category as
sleeping out of doors or lying in wet
bathing suit in the sand. There. must
be thousands of people who would be
benefited by going barefoot-not be-
cause the process is actually soothing
to the nerves. but because the novelty
would divert them from painful
thoughts; on the principle of similia
similibus curantur. for the stones. are
sharp and the grass cuts the unaccus-
toned foot.
But to an enthusiast at croquet-and
apparently there are such left in the
world-the grip of the ball must be the
main consideration. Those who are old
enough dimly to remember the game
will recall how easily the foot slipped
at the critical moment Surely, if
croquet is to be played at all those
blase persons who are playing it bare
foot have the right idea.-Providence

Sent East for Her Piano

One of our piano men met a
friend the other day and during
the conversation asked when he
could sell her a piano. She re-
piled that she had purchased a
piano in the east by mail and
thought it remarkable bargain
We do not just recall the name OF
the piano, but it was "Everwear,"
"Rattlemore" or some other title
used by a manufacturer ashamed
to put his own name on the in.
strument.
We found by inquiry that the
lady really knew very little about
a piano, either as to tone or con-
struction. but had merely been
guided by the boastful claims made
by the firm selling the instrument,
such as special patents" "25 year
guarantees" free music lessons"
etc. The patents really amount to
nothing and mean nothing to the
piano man or to the buyer. AS for
a 20 year guarantee, they do not
specify anything definite and usual
ly contain loophole. AS a mat
ter of fact, the Lester, Kimball and
other of Americas Oldest pianos
are only guarantee for five or 10
years, though they last for a life
time. The free music lessons are, OF
course, figured in the profit on the
instrument-so who pays for
them?
Now, Mr.. Piano Buyer, is there
any reason why firm way back
east can sell you piano any
cheaper than Eilers Piano House

than we do, nor has any more eco
nomic system of handling pianos.
