Splendid Values in Pianos
Being Sold TO Close Out
Frederick Stock
The Reason

Mr.. D. G.. Pfeiffer, who has
been known to the piano trade
in Washington for more than
twenty-five years, and has
been the vice president of the
w. F. Frederick Piano Com
pany since its incorporation,
has bought the entire Wash
ington branch of that Com
pany and is disposing of the
pianos as fast as possible.
Mr.. Pfeiffer has formed a
new Company under the name
of D. G. Pfeiffer Piano Com
pany, which will make its
formal announcement after
the Frederick stock has been
closed out entirely.
Mr.. Pfeiffer has allied his
interests with a very distin-
guished manufacturing house,
which gives the new concern
the advantages of being in
effect a factory bra n h,
strengthened with large cap
ital and fortified with the
splendid reputation of its
goods.
Inasmuch as the new concern
will handle it's own pianos ex-
clusively, it is absolutely COM
pulsory that every piano and
player of the Frederick stock
be sold. Mr.. Pfeiffer bought
this stock to secure control,
and, having gotten control, he
has no further need for the
pianos and is therefore selling
them at extremely low figures.
The Frederick stock is made
up of many Of the worlds
most celebrated makes of
pianos. There are many brand
new Hartman and Knabe
Pianos, Autotone and Angelus
Players and other makes, new
and perfect, which may be
bought at prices far below
their market worth.

The Bacteriology Of Wounds in the War

The European war has developed nth
erto unused and unexpected methods Of
warfare. Ii has also brought new prob
lens in military surgery and new as
poets OF surgical bacteriology. The jour
nal of the American Medical association
has published foreign correspondence IN
dicating the peculiar nature OF some OF
the wounds encountered and referring TO
some of the characteristics OF the wound
infections and their consequences fol
lowing the injuries received on the bat
tleiields. The reports OF some OF the
bacterologic investigations which have
been conducted in the French hospitals
serve to explain some OF the conse-
quenoes and to indicate the surgical pro-
cedures that may be called for in the
management OF the wounded on the
French and Belgian frontiers. Metch-
nikoff states that wounds produced by
bullets are frequently free from micro
organism. The list OF bacteria found IN
wounds dressed in the military hospitals
includes many forms of micro organisms
occasionally found in almost pure eul-
ture. notably in penetrating wounds OF
the skull and in simple bullet wounds OF
the limbs Some are of only slight yiru-
lence, and erysipelas is reported in few
instances. In most of the open wounds
foreign substances such as shrapnel balls,
fragments of shells and pieces of cloth
ing are present. The germs OF gan
creme and tetanus are also found. In
report TO the sanitary service OF the
British army in France. Weinberg ar
aues that it is logical TO assume that
these organisms found in the wounds
are of intestinal derivation. The earth
in the trenches from which those suffer
ing with gangrene were taken is often
soiled with human dejecta and manure.
Remnants Of filthy clothing likewise find
their way into the wounds.
