MUSIC ROLLS QUICKLY MADE
Useful Machine Designed Especially
for the Use Of Retail Dealers
Recently Put on the Market.

Designed especially for the use Of
retail dealers. compact machine that
perforntes music rolls for use in play
er pianos is being introduced. The ap-
paratus Is described in the Popular
Mechanics Magazine. 1t is capable Of
making from one to Is records at n
time from sheet music. and will also
turn out copies Of any standard roll.
Its operation is said to be so simple
that satisfactory work can be done by
persons who are not musicians. The
particular advantage Of the machine
seems to be that 1t enables small
dealer to fill his customers orders
promptly without having to carry q
large, expensive stock. 1t also obvi-
ates the Inconvenience that confront
patrons when special orders have to
be mailed to factory before their
wants can be supplied. Since 16 sheets
can be perforated. simultaneously, q
dealer in making roll to order has an
opportunity to add Is records to his
stock with no expense other than the
bare cost Of the paper and spools.

all the time she dreamed she thought
she was standing in the kitchen filing
gigantic salt cellar while the cook
made the cocoa.
The next day was st. Valentines
day, and when the children took their
walk In the park June watched eagerly
every carriage that passed them, but
the lovely lady did not appear. Finally.
when she had almost given up all
hopes Of seeing her, June saw her
walking toward them. As she passed
June slipped her valentine with the
little curl pasted on it into the lady's
hand.
This Is yours, lady," she said, and
then she ran back to the girls, who
thought that June had merely picked
up something that the lady had
dropped.
All that day June was carried away
with joy-the kind Of Joy that she had
never known about before, for all she
had been SO well cared for in the home.
To think that she had real true valen-

her. "Who Is yours for?" she asked.

corner" she answered. "She gave me
an apple once, and she always smiles
when we pass"
So 1t was that the girls who lived ut
the Martin home had found friends to
send the valentines to. You see, they
had no friends on the outside world, for
they had all been brought as waits into
the kind care Of Mrs. Titus, the matron,
or mother" Of the home.
But little blue-eyed June could think
Of no one in all the world to send her
valentine to, and yet she sat there, with
eager little fingers, cutting out dozens
Of red hearts and arrows.
She was beginning to paste the gold
letters on sheet of blue paper when
Mildred caught sight Of 1t.
"Look what June Is doing" she said.
"Isn't it pretty? Why, she cuts as nice
hearts rs us big girls. Who are you
going to send 1t to, June7"
Little June hung her head and looked
timidly at Mildred. Its for some

they all went on with their work, too

the girls met almost every day, driving
or sometimes walking. She always nod

hid imagined, just as all the other
girls had imagined, that the lady's
sweet smile was meant especially for
her.
Then it occurred to June TINT her
valentine wasn't good enough for the
lovely lady. The little hearts and gold
letters seemed SO rough and imperfect
as she recalled them, and she Ionged to
ask Mrs. Titus for penny to buy one
