The Brunswick

is one of the four makes of
monographs which this Store
is willing to sell and to back
with its guarantee, because we
know it to be equipped with
the means of correct and scien-
tifc reproduction of records.
This does not mean merely
its own records. At a turn of
the wrist you can play any
record on it, with the correct
weight, and with the correct
needle, (whether steel, fiber,
sapphire or diamond) placed
at the correct angle.
Nothing to put off, nothing
to put on.
This ease Of adaptation is
accomplished through the eX-
elusive and unusual feature of
The Ultona arm.
Another unusual and valu-
able feature of the BRUINS
WICK is the oval atwood tone
ampliticr, or sound-boX, which
eliminates all harsh or strident
tones.
Our Photograph Store can
show fourteen different models
in BRUNSWICKS at a price
range of $l25 to $40, and in
styles that embrace not only
the simpler upright shapes,
but a number Of elegant Period
models in console as we'll as

The model pictured above is

Music is often called the
universal language, and so
it is.
But language can be garbled,
clipped and debased by un-
couth, careless or incomplete
methods of expression, or by a
harsh or strident voice, even
though the actual words en-
ployed be drawn from purest
wells of English undefled."
1t is the same with music.
To truly charm the ear, par
ticularly a cultivated ear, the
composition itself must be ex-
ccllent Of it's kind, whatever
the kind; the performer must
be skilled in his art, and the
instrument of reproduction, be
it the human throat or the
sound-box of a phonograph,
must be full-toned, true, sweet
and sensitive.
If it is a photograph, it
must also be ABSOLUTELY
faithful in its reproduction Of
the music-just as it was
played or sung by the artist
when at his very best.

WANAMAKER'S
After Much Thought and
Observation, to Some of Us

# seems plain that many parents do not
properly value or treat wisely their fast
growing children. Quite large percentage
Of the children are little men and little
women with good thoughts of their own
which need encouragement.
It will not hurt the boys to split wood or
run errands, nor harm the girls to wash
dishes or sweep floor.
But to>add to their duty of learning their
public school lessons for the next day, the
running of errands, the bringing up of coal
from the cellar, and keeping them constantly
on the go at something with no time to play,
seems a hardship. 1t seems like what
mother told her little daughter, IF you don't
look out will wipe up the floor with YOU"
