KIMBALL
PIANOS
IN THE LEAD

In checking up our sales for the
past year, we find that more KIM
BALL pianos were sold than any
other one make. This Is not only
true of the Eilers stores, but it is
true that in all the world the Kim
ball takes the lead in point of sales
This Is not because the price is
low, but because the Kimball gives
at moderate price quality that is
remarkable.
Kimball pianos have a beautiful
full melodious tone, perfect ac-
ton and unusual durability. The
name itself is a guarantee of COM
plete and lasting satisfaction. and
we accept terms OF payment as low
as SO month on the cheaper
styles.
No cut would do justice to the
beauty Of the new Kimball cases,

them.
We have thirty other makes for
you to select from in addition to
the bargains in our EXCHANGE

DICTATOR OF
OF NEW YORK
(By United Press Leased Wire)

WASHINGTON, April 27.-That
the appointment of Governor
Hughes to the supreme bench
leaves Theodore Roosevelt political
dictator of New York is the belief
of politicians here. Whether the
president considered the political
significance of the appointment or
not. politicians say the movement
could not have been better planned
to make Roosevelt the head and
front of New York politicians.
1t is conceded that whether or not
Hughes and Roosevelt would have
worked together, Hughes was the
only man who could have contested
the leadership with Roosevelt.
Hughes, though retiring from the
governorship, would have been
forced to take part in the coming
campaign.

country to openly correct the main living
DOM with the reception hall II possible
with wide openings connecting with all
other rooms, and having windows on as
many sides OF the house as possible, both
for light and air and view. This, OF
course, means lack Of wall space which
necessarily makes the room a little harder
to furnish. The location Of all wall furni.
ture must be prearranged during the plan
ming Of the house
It is a noticeable fact that more English
homes are found in this country on hill
side locations than in cities built on level
plains There is good reason for this.
The English style admits of moro variance
as to design than most domestic styles,
which allows 1t to be adapted TO a location
not appropriate for most other styles,
Take the colonial style for example. IL
never looks we'll except on a level lot
or on a terraoed plateau. The many gables
and ridges at various heights and lengths
of an English house. suggests hills and
rugged country. 1t is almost impossible to
plan an English home without at the same
time taking into considera ton the sur
roundings and especially the planting Of
the grounds. Hedges, shrubbery and vines
should be abundant about an English
home. The angle between the vertical wall
of the house and the ground is always
filled in with low shrubbery. Vines, when
appropriately planted, can always be used
with good effect, but should be allowed to
completely cover the house Vines should
be made to enhance and not to hide the
architectural beauty wrought by man.
