J. S. UNGER MUSIC HOUSE
Reading, Pa., Publishing Company, Producers of
Many Hits, Has Alluring Proposition for Trade.
The J. S. Unger Music House, publishers, Reading,
Pa., has a proposition for sheet music dealers that
should interest the man eager to handle a line with
big profit possibilities. The house has a number of
hits in its list which continue good sellers on account
of their merits of pleasing words and alluring mel-
ody.
An advantage to the dealer handling the line of the
J. S. Unger Music House is that many of its songs
are being- exploited nationally by hundreds of the
leading stage stars. Some of the notable winners are
"Carolina," "Memories Dream," "Supposing," "Yes,
Dreams Come True," "The Man Who Catches Me
Must Have the Good Hard Cash," "Your Arms Are
Home, Sweet Home, to Me." Write for special
proposition for dealers.

ropolitan district. More than three-fifths
as much
money was paid wholesalers for rad : o sets as was
paid for all the house furniture sold by Chicago
wholesalers last year. Chicago's income from the
wholesaling of radios was 19 per cent more than for
all other musical instruments, from pianos to ukuleles,
with sheet music thrown in.

man bands will be obliged to pay amusement taxes
