flore Piano Legislation.
The piano dealers of Pennsylvania are
much interested in the Fahey Bill, which re-
cently passed the House of Representatives
in that state. Many of the daily papers
there have been working up a strong senti-
ment in favor of the bill by calling dealers
"piano sharks who grow rich on the sys-
tem of leasing a piano to a man in moderate
circumstances, and when in default through
illness or hard luck, stepping in and seizing
it, when all but paid for, without any redress
whatever." This is pure tommy-rot, inas-
much as the Fahey Bill aims to destroy the
protection which dealers have under the law
from landlords. It has no bearing upon the
removal of pianos from delinquents. The
bill, which comes up in the Senate this week,
is being strongly opposed by the members
of the piano industry.

E. D. Ackerman, the general manager of
the Adek Manufacturing Co., announces that
commencing with May ist, 1901, all whole-
sale and export trade will be handled from
the "Pianotist" factory at No. 449-455 West
Forty-first street. The "Pianotist" people
have fitted up a very artistic white and gold
salesroom in their factory, so that it will
not be necessary for dealers to go to their
retail warerooms at No. 503 Fifth avenue,
corner of Forty-second street. Dealers and
the trade in general will find a hearty wel-
come awaiting them at the "Pianotist" fac-
tory, and it behooves live dealers who are in
the market for a good piano-player to call
at the "Pianotist" factory and inspect his
wonderful device. Its list price of $175,
with a liberal discount to the trade, makes
it a very interesting proposition to wide-
awake dealers.

THE SHAW PIANO CO., ERIK, PA.
In ordering a piano from the Clough &
Warren Co., of Adrian, Mich., the King of
Portugal makes manifest one or both of the
following points: Either he desires to set
an example of frugality for his people—a
grand concept of domestic economy—or, he
is hard up, or both. In ordering the instru-
ment the monarch's agent mentions that the
previous king, in ordering a piano secured
therecn the royal coat-of-arms without ex-
tra charge, and adds: "Wish same on the
style 2,628." The motto of the king of Por-
tugal seems to be: "A penny saved is worth
two pennies earned," an old English motto,
by the way, but one which was never adopted
by the reigning King Edward, of England,
with whom we have played baccarat many's
the time. All honor to the king of Portugal,
who evinces not only that the_ Michigan
piano hath charms to soothe the royal breast,
but that he has a due and proper apprecia-
tion of the value of household prudence in
expenditure. Unlike some other kings with
whom we are acquainted, the king of Portu-
gal never keeps more than three hired girls
for his wife to wait on. That is a luxury
which even in luxurious America is seldom
found in homes whose masculine heads have
not graduated into a salary of at least $12
a week.—Denver Tribune.
