PIANO REPAIRING DEPARTMENT which will be under the control of a thoroughly com potent man, specially trained to this important branch of the pianoforte business. No matter how small the defect in your piano we will be glad to give estimates free of charge and will guarantee satisfaction with all work entrusted to us. Our experience tells us that bad and defective touch in pianos is a great source of discouragement to students, and reflection is often cast upon teachers when the fault, really lies in the state of the touch of the piano itself, through certain parts being worn down, or, in the case of newer instruments, dampness.

DURING the past twenty years many citizens have come and gone, are missed and little thought of. Not so with all. Some have gone and left behind them a good name, and have a warm corner in the hearts of those remaining. Foremost among those is MR WILLIAM TODD, He was a good citizen, kind and generous hearted. Numerous are the kindly deeds he scattered along life’s pathway, and made it the easier for many weary feet to travel, of all his good deeds, none were of such lasting benefit to the community as when he sat down and penned the following letter: — Mb E. B. JONES, Chemist, Dee street. DEAR SIR,—Re your lIONEY PECTORAL : It’gives me great pleasure to testify to the efficacy of this valuable remedy in all cases of Coughs, Colds, or Chest Disorders. I have used it personally for manyyears with the best results, and in my opinion no home should be without a supply. Faithfully Yours, WILLJAM TODD, jylG Auctioneer.
