"How can you say anything so pes simistic? Why, I think anniversaries are just lovely!" cried his wife. "Only when we succeed In forget tng that they are aniiversaries" re. | torted the professor. "The very fact that they remind us of the inexorable passage of time gives them a funda- mental sadness to begin with but that Is not what I meant, "I was thinking of Mothers' day with all its reminders of bereavement, and then ft suddenly occurred to me that the original occasions of almost all annual celebrations contained sad. ness for somebody, "The other day came the anniver sary of Sherman's march to the sea. With what feelings do you suppose that reminder is received by survive ors of the unfortunates who lived In the great general's devastating path? And so It is with the anniversaries of all battles and victories. Even the rejoicings of the victorious side are tempered with the sorrows of those who lost sons in the conflict." "Some anniversaries are sad," con- fessed the professor's wife, "like Me- morial day and Good Friday, but most of them are awfully happy, like Christ. mas and the glorious Fourth," "Please don't remind me of those groaned the professor, "with their ar tificlal and unwholesome stimulation of the young and their inescapable depression of the--er--middle aged." "Well, at least you will admit, dear," sald Isolde, "that wedding anni- versaries are happy occasions." "Ghastly 1" cried the professor. "I my 'life as I was at the tin wedding you insisted on _our Inviting our friends to. Really, my treasure, I trust you will never do that again." "Qf course not" sald Isolde sharp- Iy. "We couldn't have another tin wedding, but we'll have a sliver wed- ding when the time comes, and mean- while I think we'll be having an alum- { inum wedding, or a silk wedding, or in fact, just as many auniversaries as we are entitled to." "Heaven help me!" cried the pro. fessor. "For my part I feel with the poet that, 'The holiest of all holidays are those kept by ourselves in silence and apart. The secret anniversaries of the heart!'" Effect of Franz Liszt. Autograph letters, trinkets and other articles associated with Franz Liszt have been brought to this coun- try by Rudolph Siegel at the request of the composer's heirs, remarks the New York Herald, for whose benefit they are to be sold. Included in the collection of eighty items Is a death mask and a lock of Liszt's long gray hair. The genuine ness of the latter is attested by Lena Schmalhausen, who was the house keeper at the Liszt home at the time of his death, In 1886. The cast, which is In a glass case, is In excellent con. ditlon. A prayer book, much used and worn by the great composer, is an item closely woven with his life as the two presentation books given to him on his seventieth birthday, October 22, 1881. One of these books contains many autographs of musicians who were fémous during this period. In It Hans von Bulow, eminent pianist, is repre sented In two separate autographed notations. Translated from his script, which is In German, they read: "As S00n as we artists are able to emanci- pate ourselves from the plebelan vice of envy and fear we will be enabled to consider ourselves the pinnacle of aristocracy. and music as photographie reproduction of the acoustics of eternity." Thirty letters in French and thin teen In German comprise the collec tion of letters, among which is corres pondence from Theresa Carreno, Carl Tausig and Pablo de Sacrasate, £3 Rats Infest English Town. A Nottingham (Eng.) municipal medical officer has this to say about rats In his city: "A half million rats, Some two feet long and weighing two pounds, inhabit the prehistoric subter- fanean passages of the ty. They would attack elephants. They bave killed and deyoured mongooses, fer tets and wildcats, and men do not dare invade their haunts. An under fed female cat alone is superior to a big rat. The city tried poisoning them, but the rats quickly discovered the food was tampered with refused to eat it."

In three minutes after you sit down at a Gulbransen we can have you accenting individual notes as though you struck them with your finger. In ten minutes we can prove to you that you can play the Gulbransen and deceive even Musicians. Home Instruction And, most important, this demonstration does not end at our store. With every Gulbransen is included a set of four remarkable "Instruction Rolls" that teach you at home. If you will practice conscientiously with these rolls for a short time, you will acquire absolute mastery of the player and then you will begin to experi- ence the real thrill of self-expression in musie, beside which no other sport in the world can compare, Just Hear It Once Printed claims always sound exaggerated, The only way to really appreciate the possibilities of this Super- Player is to sée it, hear it, test it and compare it with any- thing you have heard before. Not At All Expensive Although the Gulbransen is believed by many to he the greatest Player made, it is also the least expensive. The very simplicity which has increased its effectiveness and durability has also made it cost less, so you can actually save money by getting a Gulbransen. And, best of all, it 1s Nationally Priced! The same price all over Canada. You can send a child to purchase a Gulbransen just as you would a phonograph record, because it is One Price. T. F.
