DEATH OF DANIEL E. HERVEY.
Daniel E. Hervey, journalist, musician and com-
poser, well known in New York and vicinity, died
at his home in Newark, N. ]., last Saturday in his
sixty-ninth year. Mr. Hervey was a member of
the staff of the New York Herald for over forty
years and during that time was a liberal contributor
to the magazines and newspapers, especially on
musical and religious topics. He was for a long
time editor of Leslie's Magazine.

The Perfect Player-Piano
It's what is imside of the Sterling that has made its repu-
tation. Every detail of its construction receives thorough
attention from expert workmen—every material used in its
construction is the best—absolutely. That means a piano
of permanent excellence in every particular in which a
piano should excel. The dealer sees the connection between
these facts and the universal popularity of the Sterling.
THE STERLING
A text book for pianists, teachers and pupils that
should be found invaluable by reason of the valu-
able information which it contains is the volume
just issued by the Oliver Ditson Co., Boston, Mass.,
entitled "Ears, Brain and Fingers," by Howard
Wells. The volume cannot help but make the
teacher and the pupil realize that in musical de-
velopment it is earnestness of purpose, united con-
centration, intelligent listening, which make every
effort count. Indeed, were this book read by pupils
before entering upon the study of the piano, they
would find their work easier, and could approach
it with more intelligence and understanding. This
volume is copiously illustrated and bound in eloth.
