Spain Is Buying Pianos.

The American government Is buying
mules and blankets in Spain and pay
Ing for them with pianos made in the
United States, according to George w.
Pound. manager Of the National Piano
Manufacturers association. in calling
attention to one Of the striking devel-
opments at the present time In this
country's export trade.
"As Is the case with neutralS gen.
orally" Mr.. Pound said, much Of
Spain's population has profited largely
by the war. and the demand for pianos
has persisted in spite Of the fact that
the prices Of all musical instruments
in Spain have doubled and trebled
since the war began"
Mr.. Pound said that the American
manufacturers were thereby offered an
unusual opportunity to help the gov
ernment pay the war bills as well as to
meet the foreign demand for our goods.
In this connection, Mr.. Pound said, pi-
ano manufacturers can only export
their pianos through government IL
cense.

MINNEAPOLIS DAILY
NEWS SAYS.

Experts from the laboratory of
Thomas A. Edison, with the aid Of
Madam Marie Rappold, of the Met
ropolitan Opera Company, demon
strated Friday night in the Audito-
rum that the inventor has attained
such perfection in reproducing the
human voice that it was actually
impossible for a large invited audi
ence to distinguish between the prl-
ma donna's voice and the Edison Re-
Creation of it"
"Those in the audience familiar
with Madam Rappold's voice were a
trife astonished-the voice they
heard seemed unquestionably hers,
although they faced the visible evil
dence of her closed lips. Then Mad
am Rappold's lips opened, and her
voice poured out. There were two
voices in the Auditorium now. Here
it became evident that, although
Madam Rappold was singing, her
voice was matched so perfectly by
the voice in the cabinet that it was
impossible to distinguish between
the two"
