"I Knew" by Famous Ballad Composer Bears
All the Earmarks of a Successful Number

Costs Less!
Charles K. Harris, the well-known publisher
and writer, recently announced a new classical
edition composed of songs from the pens of
internationally known composers, including
and nets you more than any other
edition of standard reprints.
Nearly 90% of the biggest selling
non-copyrights in CENTURY cost
you but 4c, which you sell at a
profit of 275%.
This Is the same
price you paid when
CENTURY was a 10c
edition and your profit
was only 150%.
In addition to CEN-
TURY yielding you
this handsome profit, it
is also spending more
National Advertising than
ever before, which helps you sell
more copies.

time it has developed a catalog of importance.
Its numbers include concert songs, both dra-
matic and lyric, sacred songs and songs for
church occasions, including Christian Science,
encore songs and musical readings, ballads, an-
thems, secular with important octavo numbers,
organ compositions and much teaching material.
Three New Triangle Songs
Joe Davis, head of the Triangle Music Pub-

offices following a week stay in Chicago pop-
ularizing "What-Cha-Call-'Em Blues." The
song is going over big in that territory, which
is a fertile field for blue numbers. While in
Chicago Joe Davis bought three songs from
the McKinley Music Co., "I Ain't Got No-
body" (And Nobody Cares For Me), "Dallas
Blues" and "I'm A Real Kind Mama." "I Ain't
Got Nobody" was originally introduced by
Marion Harris and Sophie Tucker, which as-
sures it of further popularity.
