The modulating pedals and the mechanism to carry the tune above the accompaniment are marvels of simplicity. The Krell Auto-Grand claims to have in the 'absolute, the "human touch" so prized by player-piano makers.

To the ambitious' boy or girl, as well . as the matured student, an encyclopaedia, brought' up to the last hour, Is by tar the greatest possible gift, but here is an encyclopaedia brought Into being by man s in genuity which is probably the last word in encyclopae dia making. Here is a loose-leaf encyclopaedia with a system of perpetual addena. In this plan of encyclo paedia when a subject grows old or modern thought puts new phases on it, the makers of this wonderful work send a new leaf to take its place, and by the use of a key the metal binder is unlocked, the pages loosened, the old page extracted and the new leaf takes Its place. Presto! the encyclopaedia is up to the last hour. It cannot grow old. This encyclopaedia contains twelve volumes and is sold regularly at $96.00 a set. The work is produced by Thomas Nelson & Sons of New York, London, Dub lin and Edinburgh. This house was founded in 17 9&. The Omaha representative is W. A.
