Hallett and
Davis
The Hallet and Davis Piano Company is one of the three oldest firms of piano
manufacturers in America, and is now one of the largest concerns making grand, up
right and player pianos of the highest possible grade.
The name Hallet A. Davis has been intermingled with all important musical
events since practically the birth of the American piano. It has received one hun
dred and forty gold medals and competitive awards. A prouder record is borne
by none for tonal quality, durability and persistent advancement. Used exclu
sively in many of the musical schools and conservatories where it meets with the
highest satisfaction, the most rigorous demands of support for the singing voice and
complete dependability of construction.
We invite the public, both music lovers and teachers to come in and hear this
wondertul piano.

Kngland has had a committee study

production of alcohol to he used In

The opportunities* discussed by the
committee are Interesting. Of vnurae,.
potatoes, nrti( liokes and cereals came
in for attention. But it seems there
are lean known sources of alcohol. For
example, there Js the flower of the
mahua tree, which flouriehes In Hy
derabad and the central part of India.
This flower, when sun dried, contalna
6 per cent of its weight in ferment
able sugar, and apparently is to be
gathered by the ton. Then there are
the fertile gases of the coke ovens.
They are so rich in surprises to the
everyday man that it Is not very start

American Buys Franklin Portrait.
A port mil of Benjamin Franklin,
painted in Pauls In 1778 by Joseph Si
freHe Duplessls, and showing him as
the American, ambassador whom
Parisians of that period knew, has ur
rlved in this country, the property of
Michael Friedsam, the New York Eve
ning Post states. Franklin presented
the portrait to the Freres Perier, en
gineers and owners of the Challlot Are
engine, when lie left France, and it.
was from the Perier family that Mr.
Friedsam purchased it this year.
The portrait, whose gorgeous frame
of the period is rnrved in the form of a
serpent, is said to be typical of the
best work of Duplessls, who was made
a member of the academy In 1774, and
was later appointed conservator of the
museum of Versailles. In Versailles is
a street called I>uplessls, and a statue
of him stands In a public square of the
city.
Only Live Okapi in Captivity.
The only live okapi in captivity has
been brought to Antwerp from the
Congo. The okapi is the survivor of a
distant ancestor of the giraffe. An
adult stands about five feet high, and
although it lias the general shape of
the giraffe, its neck is relatively
shorter and its forelegs ure not so high
in proportion to the hindquarters.
The sides of the animal's hetyd rre
lluht fawti color and the wrrn^fTil color
ation of the body is a dark purple.
The most striking characteristic is
that the rump, and the upper pnrt of
the leg* are t rans\ersely striped with
black and white. If was flr?t known
