THE "ELEPHANT" VIOLIN STRING.
William Tonk & Bro., of New York and
Chicago, have issued the following announce-
ment concerning a new brand of violin string,
the "Elephant":
"Messrs. William Tonk & Bro., of New
York and Chicago, have introduced, simul-
taneously with their new catalogue, a new
brand of violin strings, which will be known
under the following numbers : Violin E, No.
2,670; violin A, No. 2,672; violin D, No.
2,673, a n d by emblem or trade-mark by a
clever cut of an elephant playing a stringed
instrument. The elephant naturally repre-
sents great strength and endurance. These
are the requisite qualities claimed for the
'Elephant' brand of strings above referred
to, hence this emblem has been chosen as a
trade-mark.
"The 'Elephant' band strings will be put
in paraffine paper envelopes, indicating which
instruments the different kinds of strings
may be used for, and put up in a handsome
and convenient pasteboard box. These
strings are made by one of the best string
manufacturers in Europe, from a naturally
white Russian gut. They are, therefore,
a beautiful white without having undergone
any chemical process or having been over-
bleached.
"Of course, the 'Beau Ideal,' which have
a world-wide reputation, are still the leaders
with the above-named firm; the 'Elephant'
brand are next in quality and are intended
to supply a want for a good, durable string
at a moderate price.
"Dealers will do well to write for prices and
further particulars."
ORDER FROM WAR DEPARTMENT.
Val Schehl, maker of calf and sheep banjo,
drum and tambo heads and rawhide snares,
278-282 Siegel street, Brooklyn, has just re-
ceived another important order from the
War Department for drum-heads. Mr.
Schehl has been handling government con-
tracts in this line for some time past.
NEW "BAY STATE" CATALOGUE.
John C. Haynes & Co. have just issued a
new complete trade catalogue of musical mer-
chandise. The firm desire to keep in close
touch with all music dealers and will be glad
to hear from those who desire a copy of the
Haynes catalogue. .
