'-, How the Editors get Rich.
After a good deal of'study and
work we have at last figured out
why so many country editors get
rich. Here is theseoret of success:
a child is born in the neighbor
hood, the attending physician
gets $25, the editor gives the loud
lunged youngster and the happy
parents a "send-off" and gets $0.
It is christened ; the minister g 'ts
$10 -and the editor gets $00. It
grows up and marries: the editor
publishes another lorg-winded,
flowery article and tells a dozen
lies about the. beautiful accom
plished bi ide, the minister gets
$10 and a piece.of cake, the edi
tor gets $000. In the course of
time it dies,- and the doctor gets
from $25 to $100; the miui6ter
^perhaps another $15, the under
taker gets from $50 to $100, the
editor publishes a notice ot the
death and au obituary two < ol
umns long, lodge and society reso
lutions, a lot of poetry and free
card pf thanks, and gets $0,000.
No wouder so many country edi
tors get rich.-Mobrehead Coast

Mathushek Pianos
When we say that we have sold Mathushek pianos to succeeding
generations of man old Southern families, the sterling goodness of
the instrument may be judged. Of the more than thirty thoueand
we have sold, not one but has given perfect satisfaction. The Mathu
shek is admirably adapted to this damp Southern atmosphere. Never
affected by the peculier climate. Costs almost nothing to maintain,
because it seldom requires tuning. Prices
$350 to 8750.
And considerably lower here than elsewhere.
Lester Pianos
In this famous instrument is wonderfully combined the qualities
that appeal alike to the student, the teacher and the artist, its tone
is rich and mellow, its touch delicately responsive, and its durability
is covered by a comprehensive guarantee. The purchaser bf a Les
ter maybe assured of-substantial value for every doilar of Its cost,
which runs from
$325 to 8750.
Piano
To those who are lovers of music, but lack practice or musical
training, we earnestly suggest the lifelong delight to be secured by
the purchase of an Angelus or a Cecilian Piano Player. We can fur
nish one at comparatively little cost that will make your old piano
fairly ring with melody; that will enable anyone, without the slight
est musical training, to play the most difficult piano music. If pre
ferred, we can furnish a new piano that may be either played by
hand, or by the inside concealed player attachment. The public, is
invited to eall and listen to the performance of these really wonder
ful instruments. No charge whatever.
