We receive hundreds ¢ land The Aeolian Co.— Gentlemen: Just a line before starting north in regard to the beautiful Pianola Piano which, through the generosity of my friend, H. H. Benedict,! purchased for the “Roosevelt.” The compactness of the instrument makes it seem not out of place even in the contracted quarters of an Arctic ship, and the few moments which it has been possible to spare to it thus far satisfy me that it will be one of the most potent aids to the enjoyment of the members of the expedl tion during the “Great Night” of the Arctic regions. Very sincerely yours, R. BE. PEARY. Dear Sir: I have spent $85 and will say C. D. Hillman’s R. R. and street cars, is the $75 per acre, which I will set expert gardener. Respectfully This letter from Commander Peary was written on the eve of his departure upon the expedition prior to the pres- ent one. How fully his anticipations of enjoyment were realized is shown by several enthusiastic references to the Pianola Piano in his book, “Nearest the Pole.” Among other things he says: “At times the days seemed to rush by with the velocity of the flood-tide past Sheridan; at others, they were as tardy as if moored toa rock. At all these times the Pianola Piano, Mr. Benedict's splendid gift, was invaluable, sooth- ing and lightening many an hour and sending me back to my work refreshed and with new energy.” In setting out upon his present trip, which has resulted in pfacing the American flag at the North Pole, Peary not »only took the Pianola Piano with him again, but also added to his previous collection of music a hundred rolls of the lat- est and jolliest selections. There are homes in the West today which are just as destitute of music as though they were shut in by the Arc- | tic ice. The presence of a Pianola or a Pianola Piano will work a complete revolution in such households and give as | A. M.
