OF
XJ/IQ 7few~2/ork Tjribune
The agitation and alarm in the
public mind at this time give an
extraordinary value to the services
of a paper like The Tribune.
There is a general reaction among
all intelligent classes against the
exaggeration, extravagance, bogus
news, guesswork and typograph-
ical hysterics of the sensational
papers.
The Tribune is the only morning
newspaper in New- York, not of this
class, which not only enjoys the
comprehensive Associated Press
service but has an elaborate system
of special dispatches from its own
representatives at every Camp, in
every Army and with the Fleets.
The paper which will suit you
the best and give you the most
is The Tribune. It does not mag-
nify skirmishes into terrible battles;
and it does not exaggerate things
of which it has special and exclusive
news out of all proportion to their
importance.
Its scrupulous desire to give the
exact truth and nothing else is
well known to the Army and Navy.
In consequence, its correspondents
have special facilities for learning
the exact facts.
The Schmidt Hammers.
David H. Schmidt, the maker of piano
hammers, at Melrose avenue and 163d
street, sees numerous indications of a
heavy business this coming season. His
book of orders in advance is increasing
rapidly and new patrons are joining an al-
ready extensive list.
These are pleasing indications. Manu-
facturers do not order hammers unless
they want or expect to trse them in the
near future. So it is a sign of good times
coming. It is also a sign, by the way, that
VMM
Latest reports from the Roth & Engel-
hardt factory are to the effect that busi-
ness is progressing steadily, with an ex-
cellent outlook for the fall. The firm are
living up to the reputation they have won
for their products. The business, through
close attention to details, has developed
into magnificent proportions, calling, from
time to time, for large factory additions of
men, machinery and stock. It is well
within the facts to say that the Roth &
Engelhardt establishment is one of the
best equipped, and best managed in its
own branch, not only in the country, but
in the world.

HTH P'ANO
Its great page of Open-Air Sports and
Sportsmen is attracting the attention of
every one. A cotitcmporary says: "For a
long time the cyclv.ig department of The
'Tribune' has been in the hands of one of
the most competent experts in the country,
and its racing specialist is as well known
for his picturesque language as for his
accurate knowledge of horses."

they know the merits of the Schmidt pro-
ducts. If they had any doubts on that
score they would hardly be anxious for
early fulfilments of orders.
< Played like the Symphony.)
A new and wonderful invention that instantly converts any piano
into a self-playing instrument. In every house where there is a
piano the ANGELUS ORCHESTRAL is needed. It is
The Master-key that unlocks
the gates of Melody for all!
No musical talent on the part of the
performer is required. A child that
has never before seen a piano can, with
the aid of the ANGELUS ORCHES-
TRAL, render the most difficult com-
positions in a manner possible to only
the most accomplished and practised
of pianists. Contains (in addition to
the piano-playing mechanism) two full
sets of organ reeda, which may be
played separately or In company with
the piano.
EPJS ORCHESTf
ALONE
Instantly applied to any piano —
grand, upright or square — and as
easily removed. No technical knowl-
edge required s the performer has
merely to work the pedals and operate
the stops that control the time and ex-
pression and thereby render the most
difficult pieces in a truly masterly
way. Does not scratch or injure the
piano in the least.
Made in all varieties of polished
woods to match any piano.
The above is a very brief and incomplete account of the
ANGELUS ORCHESTRAL. Send your name and address on a
postal card and we will gladly mail photos and full description.
