BAUER GOODS ON PACIFIC COAST.
A Large Shipment Made to Sherman, Clay &
Co.—Dealers Should Look up the Bauer
Line—Instruments of Excellence.
(Special to The Review.)
Philadelphia, Pa., June 7, 1904.
The Bauer Co., Inc., manufacturers of the Stew-
art banjos and banjorines and the Bauer mando-
lins and guitars are steadily enlarging their
volume of trade in all sections of the country.
The merits of their wares are steadily appreciat-
ing, because of their superiority. In the central
West and on the Pacific coast, the different in-
struments made by the Bauer Co. are exceedingly
popular. Only recently they made one of the
largest shipments ever made to Sherman, Clay &
Co., of San Francisco, including all the latest
productions for early fall trade. These instru-
ments are beautiful in appearance and surpris-
ing in the volume and quality of tone, and all
dealers on the Coast and others interested should
not fail to look up this line at the Sherman-
Clay headquarters. An impressive proof of the
merits of the instruments made by the Bauer Co.
is to be found in the fact that the enterprising
house of Sherman, Clay & Co, have handled this
line most successfully for many years, and are
enthusiastic over the merits of the instruments.

THE GRADUATING TONE POST.
A Recent Device For Improving the Tone and
Overcoming Certain Defects in Stringed In-
struments.
The graduating tone post, an article of com-
paratively recent introduction, is claimed to be
an auxiliary or arrangement for improving the
tone or overcoming the defects of string instru-
ments, including violins, violas, mandolins,
guitars, cellos, bass and double bass viols. The
device is said to "develop a'fuller and stronger
tone, with greater carrying power, and at the
same time imparts to the instrument a smooth,
mellow, rich and fascinating tone, such as are
characteristic in very fine, high grade, and rare
old violins; so that the instrument will respond
with ease and certainty to all the demands made
upon it. I t makes the instrument respond in-
stantly to the bow, a feature which is especially
noticeable in the harmonics, bringing them out
unusually strong and clear. It also develops the
tone of strings that are dull, weak or unrespon-
sive, evens them up, takes away that tone desig-
nated as 'tub tone,' 'woody tone,' and 'new tone.'
Mechanically considered, the graduating tone
post is a hollow tube with lateral hollow pro-
