ing out had but three vessels—now it has
five.
Prior to the existence of this line of
steamers Peruvian trade with the United
States had to go by the Panama route,
where it was subjected to the overcharges
and burdens occasioned by this re-shipment
through the Isthmus. This forced the
mercantile interests in the United States
to go to Liverpool for the products of Peru.
But with steam transportation direct from
Peruvian ports to the United Sutes the in-
terests of both countries will be better
served. A steamship line was badly
needed, and it is expected that the new line
will do much toward promoting commer-
cial interests between the United States and ship company that will establish regular
South America.

Sales are Made
in these fin de siecle days by men who are
thoroughly conversant down to the minut-
est details with that which they offer to
prospective customers. A piano salesman
will obtain much more satisfactory results
if he acquaints himself with the mystery of
the action and technical analysis of the
instrument. He can do this
By Studying
.."The Piano"
the best book ever written, and so pro-
nounced by the highest experts, on the art
of tuning and regulating. It thoroughly
acquaints the reader with the grand, the
upright, the square piano on a scientific
basis. It is illustrated with carefully
designed diagrams accurately numbering
and naming each part of the instrument.
It should be in every salesman's library.
Tuners, whether amateurs or experts,
recognize it as the standard work of their
craft. No "kit" is complete without it.
Cloth bound, over one hundred pages.

A5K QUESTIONS.
When a piano manufacturer tells you
his pianos are the best, and that no others
are worth considering, ask questions.
Ask him "Why?"
As a matter of fact most pianos are
good; the makers would bf f ™ 1 ** 1 ' *~ J*
other than their best.
The differences between them are
small, but small things are very im-
portant.
It is by excelling m many little things
that the WESER PIANO is lifted above
the common mediocrity of pianodom.
Maybe it's the greater elasticity of the
hammers^ our new duett uesk or our
praetice pedal—both patented—which
altogether make so viany dealers persist
in having the Weser Piano.
