The Emerson in Paris.
S
OME time ago P. H. Powers, of the
Emerson Piano Co., Boston, shipped
a handsome Emerson piano to Miss Marie
L. Goggan, daughter of T. Goggan, of
Thos. Goggan & Bro., the well-known
Texas dealers, who is at present completing
her musical education in Europe. The re-
marks in the following letter contrasting
the American and the European pianos will
be found interesting:
PARIS, Sept. 17,
1895.
Dear Mr. Powers —After considerable
delay in coming by slow train from Havre
to Paris, and passing through the Custom
House, the magnificent piano which you so
kindly sent to Miss Goggan, for her use
and that of her young friends, has arrived.
We are boarding at 56 Avenue Malakoff in
the convent of the "Religieuses du tres
Saint Sacreinent." The American piano is
a beauty and a great contrast to the small
tinkling upright pianos here, the nuns and
pupils all congregate around to hear it, and
as we become known outside ourselves be
sure we shall make its splendid qualities
known also.
We, the undersigned, each and all of us,
send thanks to you.
Yours truly, .,

Never allow a person to do any service

to you. This rule, strictly adhered to, will
save you many annoyances.

Three Good Business Hints.
N
EVER sign a paper without reading
it; and if, after reading, you do not
understand it, have it thoroughly explained
before you put a signature to it. It is best
to get some third person, who is not inter-
ested in the matter at all, to explain the
meaning of what is not clear, or to point
out words that may have two meanings in
the document.
Always make a memorandum in your
little book of any contract you undertake.
It saves much trouble to keep a memoran-
dum book and put down the dates when
you either pay or receive money. When-
ever money passes on account, set it down.
If any money or thing of value goes through
your hands, give a receipt for it and make
a memorandum. Your receipt settles the
amount that passes, and that cannot be dis-
puted. When you pass it to a third party,
