Among the various publications of T. B. Harms
& Francis Day & Hunter, of which there is a par-
ticularly satisfying demand at present, is "The
Robin and the Red, Red Rose," words by Alex
Rogers and Music by C. L. Roberts, and which is
being featured most successfully by Nora Bayes
on her present vaudev'lle tour, which recently in-
cluded a week at the Palace Theater in New York
City.
This house also has an excellent number of the
light comedy type in "There Must Be Little Cupids
in the Briny," words and music by Jack Foley.
The lyrics of the piece are very clever and are
woven around the experience of summer-time
flirtations at the seashore.

Century Edition catalog is found suitable for the
use of children of the size shown in tie photo-

MUCH ACTIVITY IN BUFFALO.
(Special to The Review.)
BUFFALO, N. Y., September 25.—Waterson, Ber-
lin & Snyder attracted considerable attention here
last week, when "Hands Up" was playing at the
Teck. They decorated their store to represent the
entrance to a circus, and advertised the songs
from the show in great style, with the result that
sales hit a new high-water mark for the present
season.
A recent visitor to the Buffalo trade was "Dick"
Winternitz, the dynamic representative of Leo
Feist, Inc., who stopped off while homeward
bound from a tour of the East and Middle West
and Canada.
Walter Douglas, of the Broadway Music Corp.;
Julius Roos, of the Plaza Music Co., and Mr.
Avery, of M. Witmark & Sons, were also included
among recent visitors.
H. I. Davis, who has a store on Main street,
near Huron, is advertising a "removal sale" and is
selling out his stock of popular and standard prints
at 'barga'n prices.
MUST NOT SING "FRISCO."
Sam Rice, owner of a burlesque company, and
two of its members, Lester Hill and Dolly Sweet,
were forbidden Monday by Judge Relstab in the
Federal Court at Newark to sing in public the song
"Hello, Frisco." Ziegfeld's Follies, Inc., of New
York, was the complainant.
Rice's show played at the Orpheum in Newark
recently and Hill and Miss Sweet sang the copy-
righted song. Affidavits presented Monday showed
the burlesquers' action violated the Ziegfeld rights
rnder the Copyright Law.
