DVkLVS TO
Philadelphians who travel
much in and out Of the sub
urbs, or to Atlantic City, prob
ably have noticed the large
signs that tell something Of
interest about The Sonora
Phonograph.
In fact. The Sonora is so
we'll known that little COM
ment on that scorce is neces-
sary; but, nevertheless, there
may be music-lovers who have
yet to hear the Sonora tone,
that is so often praised and
so we'll liked by the discrimi-
mating.
The picture above shows you
one of the most popular of the
Sonora models the Baby
Grand. This model is 1896,
and you may secure it on con-
venient terms, providing for
the inclusion Of records from
the very start, and making the
transaction perfectly complete
and satisfactory.
Of course, you can't tell much
about an instrument by look
ing at the picture; because a
phonogralh is not like an ar
ticle Of furniture. It is essen
TALLY musical instrument,
and your desire to possess it
is based chiefly upon your love
of music.
| That is why you should give
yourself the opportunity to
hear The Sonora, and listen to
it attentively. Nobody can
choose an instrument for you,
nor tell you which is best.
That misused word, best"
can only be applied by the one
who is purchasing the instru-
ment, since no two persons
can be guaranteed to think
alike, when it comes to music.
But there are some things
with regard to any phono-
graph sold here that we, as a
Store, investigate carefully.
One is the workmanship of
the instrument; another is the
quality of the materials; an
other is the reliability of those
who make the instrument.
The Sonora measures up to
the Wanamaker standard of
ALL that a good phonograph
should be. This is true of
every Sonora model, therefore
the model illustrated, the
Baby Grand, is one that we
can recommend without reser-
vation.
We invite you to hear The
Sonora without any sense Of
obligation. 1t is a good thing
for all music-lovers to become
familiar with the standard
monographs and to know
what each one can do. Our
salons are always ready, like
wise our service.

Will THRESH
WHEAT affair
This Will be One of Many
Innovations at Elsmere
Grounds
TO PUT TRACK
IN FINE SHAPE

One Of the numerous innovations
that tho management OF the Della
ware State Fair Association has plan
ned for this years exhibition which
begins on Labor Day and continues
for five days, will be the threshing Of
wheat and oats from fields OF the
grain now under cultivation on the
ground leased by the Fair Associa-
ton at Elsmere.
There is a field of ten acres in
wheat that is coming along splen-
didly. This will be cut in a few days
and shocked. 1t will then be thresh-
ed during fair week. While in other
years there have been displays OF
harvesting machines. there has never
been so complete a demonstration as
this promises 10 be.
The demonstration will be under
the direction Of experts in harvesting
and the very latest models OF ma
chinery will be utilized.
There will also be a demonstration
of harvesting oats from a five-acre
field.
In order that there may not be
any Inconvenience to autoists in case
8: should rain during this years fair.
workmen will drain the big space de-
voted TO parking cars. A contract
with experts on draining calls for
the section devoted TO cars TO be as
dry as possible. and these men guar
antee that they can drain the section
so thoroughly that grass could not
grow upon IL. IL will be done ac-
cording to scientific methods. and
there will be no soggy ground to go
through.
The paths and roads about the fair
grounds are being graded and Gin
dered anew. Wherever the winter
storms have washed away stretches.
these are being filled in and gotten
in first-class condition to accommo-
date the thousands Of visitors who
attend each years exhibition.
Sheriff Gould, who Is secretary Of
he Fair Association. is an almost
daily visitor to the grounds. and is
keeping in close touch with all the
work that is going forward. He is
paying particular attention to the
race track and promises that the
course this season will be in better
condition when the time for fair
week rolls ronud than ever before.
The sheriff Is a good judge of what
horsemen need to get the best out OF
their PAGERS and trotters. and will sec
that everything is ready for the
opening day Of the fair.
