A PhiIadelphla Idea.

A Philadelphia Idea.
Music and cleaning the parlor have
never been very closely associated.
When the housewife wants to play the
piano. he generally waits until she
has cleaned the parlor, taken a bath
and dressed herself In party clothes.
Now a Philadelphian has patented q
dust -fltering attachment which can be
attached to the player-piano, and the
ordinary housewife can now seat her
self at the player-piano, obtain music
via the keys, work the pedals for all
she is worth and, with her child to
run the vacuum cleaner about the
floor, she can have It clean in a jiffy.
The bellows Of the player are attached
to the vacuum cleaner by means Of
a special pipe, and In this manner the
needed vacuum is created for cleaning
purposes.
