C. G. CONN—IN EULOGIUM.
There's Sousa with a wealth of music in his soul
untold,
There's Liberati's dulcet notes a glimpse of heaven
unfold;
There's Innes with his sweeping range that thrills
you through and through
And Chambers with his liquid tone so clear and
pure and true;
There's Berger with her dashing style acknowl-
edged all alone,
And Pryor like a wizard hypnotizing the trom-
bone,
And_ with the perfect instruments these artists
play upon
They show the world the genius of

And there's a host of others on his instruments
who play
Whose names in music's history will never fade
away;
With heartfelt inspiration what a pleasure they
impart—
A pleasure only music can instill into the heart.
In rhythm sweet indelibly they mark upon your
mind
A truth that old eternity can never leave behind,
And that is music's power—from the Hudson to
the Don
For part of it the world must honor

John C. Haynes & Co., Boston, have just
issued a new and attractive illustrated cata-
logue of the "Bay State" musical instru-
ments. It contains perfect pictorial represen-
tations of the "Bay State," "Excelsior" and
"Hub" products, all known as "Bay State"
instruments, with many letters of unqualified
commendation. In the introductory, under
the heading "A IMain Statement of Facts,"
the following pertinent remarks are made:
"Experience is a powerful search-light.
The work of inexperience is an experiment.
The product of experience is a perfected
fact.
"So the person who buys a 'Bay State'
instrument buys the ripened product of the
longest experience. For twenty years the
'Bay State' factory has been producing the
leading instruments of American manufac-
ture. It has passed the era of experiment.
Its products have entered into the land of
demonstrated superiority. It thoroughly in-
corporates all those finer qualities which the
search-light of long experience demand.
"Not 'how cheap,' but 'how near the musi-
cian's ideal' has been the standard of the
'Bay State.' It is made from this stand-
point. The crucial test of twenty years in
the hands of musicians has fortified the 'Bay
State' instruments against any possible de-
fect in workmanship, tone, durability, design.
"Time tests all things. An inferior article
sees its best days in infancy. But with each
succeeding year the popularity of the 'Bay
State' instruments have steadily risen until
to-day they stand supreme in the musical in-
dustry.
"The best test of any article is what it
does. What do the 'Bay State' instruments
do in actual service—that settles the question
of superiority. Ask the professional and
amateur player what he thinks of them. Lis-

ten, for it is the voice of experience. And
experience is truth in practical working order.
"Professor Bemis says : 'Your instruments
unqestionably lead the world for beauty of de-
sign, delicate touch and finished workman-
ship.'
"Professor Barker says: 'The "Bay State"
instruments possess a keen delicacy of tone
which other instruments of American manu-
facture seem to lack.'
"These are but two opinions selected from
hundreds of others because the men who give
them are experts. Other experts—judges at
twenty-seven State, National and Interna-
tional Expositions—have used similar ex-
pressions, and backed their opinions with
highest awards. It is significant that the
'Bay State' instruments are the only win-
ners of American Gold Medals."

HOW DO YOU ACCOUNT FOR IT?
Many of the most popular novels have
ended with a question. Possibly there is
no more forcible way in which to bring
the great value of the Pianola to the
serious consideration of those unfamiliar
with it than to ask them to solve a ques-
tion concerning it.
How do you account for the enthus-
iasm of all Pianola owners irrespective
of their musical training, from the great
pianist composer, Paderewski, to the ver-
iest novice who literally does not know
one note from another ?
How do you account for the fact that
Paderewski, Sauer, Moszowski, Rosen-
thai, Hofmann, De Pachmann, Slivin-
ski, Harold Bauer and Dohnanyi have
formed the same opinion about the Pian-
ola—an opinion of unequivocal appro-
val? Not by believing they all made a
mistake.
How do you account for the fact that
the Pianola in the short space of three
years has brought a new industry into
existence and that the demand for this
simplified way of playing the piano has
already tfavelled around the globe?
How do you account for the interest
that sends inquiries the morning follow-
ing the. "opening" of a light opera to see
if its music has beeen arranged for the
Pianola, or for the enormous and con-
stantly increasing demand for all classes
of music? [For it is the music which
the Pianola enables them to play, not
the Pianola itself, the people want.]
How do you account for this new force
in the musical world, which seems to be
gathering strength every day? Those
who own Pianolas appreciate the reason
for it. But you who are unfamiliar with
the Pianola—who have not thoroughly
investigated it—you must have some dif-
ficulty in accounting for this fast spread-
ing Pianolism.
The cost of the Pianola is $250. May
be purchased by moderate payments.
Visitors welcome.
