any journal devoted to Music and Musical
Instruments in their industrial and commercial
phases.

giving the complete news of the Music Trades

tains in every issue practical suggestions for the

Piano Merchants and their Salesmen.
One of the regular features is the "Where
Doubts Are Dispelled"' department, in which
questions relating to the manufacture, purchase
and sale of pianos are plainly and satisfactorily
answered. This department is alone worth
