'QUALITY That's the only sensible thing to do when you select a piano. Mere- ly because an instrument looks like 2 piano is no good reason why you should buy it. Because it is offered to you at a “cheap” figure is not a good reason, either. Look for quality—and pay a reasonable figure for it. You run no risk whatever in buying a piano of us, because every instrument we carry has distinctive quality. Every in- strument in our warerooms not only looks like a piano, but is a 4/ viano in the highest musical sense. We sell pianos on terms so reasonable and easy that any household can own a good instrument.

PADUCAH, Ky, Feb. 18.—A wrecked | houseboat, floating on its side in the | Tennessee River near Livingston Point, three miles above here, was caught this afternoon and found to contain the bodies | of three persons—a man, a woman and a | child, all white.

NEW YORK, Feb. 18.—Hilda Clark, for- merly prima donna of the Bostonians, and Frederick Stanton Flower were mar- ried to-day at the home of Miss Clark’s parents in this city. Miss Clark won fame as ‘“‘the bride-elect.” Mr. Flower is a millionaire broker and nephew of the late Roswell P. Flower, ex-Governor of New York, of the Flat Janitors' Union by Saturday nioon. A vote is now being taken in the union relative to a general strike Satur- day in every flat and apartment building in the city where the owners have re- fused the union terms. The vote is be- ing taken by postal card and the answers are pouring into the hands of President Feather, indicating that a large majority fs in favor of walking out. There are 1800 janitors in the union, but only those in buildings controlled by men who re- fuse to sign the union agreement will strike. It the strike is declared Saturday the coal supply, grocery deliveries and all other comforts of home that unions can control will be shut off. R, i DECLARE THE FORM. TREATMENT A FAILURE NEW YORK, Feb. 18.—The widely her- alded discovery of formalin as a cure for blood poisoning is now declared by New York physicians to be a failure. Tests which they have made are said to have shown that formalin is only a temporary check to the growth of the germs and in the long run proves an in- jury to the patient. Rabbits infected with blood poison germs and subjected to | formalin treatment died several hours sooner than rabbits similarly infected and not placed under the treatment. Dr. George I". Shrady says he regards the result of the tests conducted by the bacteriological expert of the Health De- partment as confirming his view and that of many others of the profession that the formalin treatment was a failure. “It has gone the way of many other suddenly heralded cures,” sald Dr. Shardy. ““When it was first announced it struck the medical profession with won- der that such a simple remedy should have so long been overlooked. That had much to do with the skepticism with which 1t was regarded.” - Baby Is Fatally Burned. SANTA ROSA, Feb. 18.—The two-year- old child of Lewis M. Bisk, a farmer re- #iding In Rincon Valley, was shockingly burned this morning during the tempo- rary absence of {ts mother from the house. The child had been placed in a high chalr neir the stove, wrapped in a comforter. The comforter caught fire and before the cries of the child attracted help the baby received fatal burns. —_———————— To Cure a Cold in One Day Teke Laxative Bromo Quinine Tablets.
