Aeolian. As an Orchestra responds to the direction of its conductor, so does the Aeolian to the player, whom simple markings guide into the changes of tempo, the ton-coloring and instrumental effects, all of which are under control, and may be varied to suit the conception of the performer. Thus, by means of the Aeolian, a vast field of music is opened for amusement and study, making the instrument equally attractive to those who can and cannot play. The Aeolian is exhibited daily at our warerooms. The Mason & Hamlin Piano & Organ Co., 155 Tremont Street, Boston, Mass. Ad Oats Ad. Business Lags. Give it oats. Just as you would to a lagging horse. People will buy in any season. The point is to let them know in a simple, attractive, effective way, just what a good thing you have to sell. Another point is to tell your story economically to the largest number of likely buyers. These two points we have made our business for many years. Some of our clients have experienced surprising results from a small amount expended through our careful and systematic method. There is no cost for information about our plans. The publishers pay all commissions. Write to us. Perhaps we can impart to your business a little more speed. Dodd's Advertising Agency, 265 Washington Street, Boston, or World Buil'g, N. Y. City. Reliable Dealing. Careful Service. Low Estimates. When to stop using Johnson's Anodyne Liniment. When cramps and pains cease to abound, when all mankind is free from guile, when women never look around to comment on their rival's style then you can stop using it. When colds and coughs we have for fun, when banks dispense with bolt or lock, when electric lights replace our sun, and politicians cease their talk; then you can stop using it. When lawyers take what they would give, when doctors give what they would take, when sporting men shall drink and live on winnings got without "a fake" then you can stop using it; Which means Never! For as long as life has woes Johnson's Anodyne Liniment will be needed, as it prevents and cures asthma, bronchitis, colds, coughs, catarrh, colic, croup, cramps, chills, dyspeptic pains, diphtheria, gout, hacking hoarseness, headache, heartburn, hooping cough, influenza, neuralgia, nervousness, pneumonia, sciatica, rheumatism, sore lips, sore throat, sore lungs, la grippe, chest pains, bowel pains, and kidney pains.

Tuesday, March 20 Next Week Tuesday, March 20 The Important Production of America with all the grandeur which marked its wonderful career at the World's Fair, Chicago. Seldom, if ever before, in the history of the stage has a spectacular production in one city almost immediately acquired a national reputation; but this is the case with Abbey, Schoeffel & Grau's presentation of Imre Kiralfy's historical pageant and spectacle "America." It is a matter of confirmed agreement on all sides that few people attended the World's Fair, at Chicago, who did not also attend a presentation of this glorious spectacle and all who did so attend became, at once, enthusiastic advertisers – so to speak – of the presentation's magnificence. Very soon it was spoken of from one end of the land to the other. Since last summer "America" has been given in New York, Philadelphia, Washington, Baltimore, and always has achieved a triumph. Soon it will occupy the Tremont Theatre stage, and it is certain will find a grand welcome in this city. At their home theatre, naturally, Messrs. Abbey, Schoeffel & Grau intend to give it the finest possible setting and most adequate production. The opening of its season at the Tremont will be on Tuesday night, March 20, Monday night being taken for the final preparations. They who have seen it need not be told of its superb, superlative grandeur, and no amount of space in description could give just idea to those who have not yet witnessed a presentation. Nearly a score of matchlessly beautiful scenes, superb allegorical and historical tableaux, magnificent ballets, processions, beautiful music, and, in fact, the acme of art. A slight idea of the grandeur of the spectacle can be deduced from the following synopsis of scenery and incidents: - Prologue. Scene 1. – Santa Fe. Scene 2. – The Departure from Huelva. Scene 3. – The Voyage of Discovery. Scene 4. – San Salvador. Scene 5. – Triumphal return to Barcelona, Grand Processional Pageant by the entire Corps de Ballet, Grand Chorus and Corps of Auxillaries. Act I. Scene 1. – The Plymouth Plantation, 1621. Scene 2. – Merrymount, 1623. May Song. May-pole Dance. Solo, with variations. Mlle. Teresina Magiloni. Original Juggling Act by Sylvester Schaeffer. Messrs. Basco and Roberts in their comic eccentricities. Grand Ballet of Merrymakes. Grand Finale, Bacchanale Chorus and Dance. Act II. Scene 1. – Washington Crossing the Delaware. Scene 2. – The Surrender of Yorktown. Scene 3 – Peace and the Triumph of Liberty. Scene 4. – The Temple of Peace. Entrance of Peace, Liberty Independence, Happiness, Love, Friendship, Kindness and Benevolence. Entrance of Progress, Commerce, Industry, Wealth, Prosperity, Agriculture and Invention. Entrance of Civilization, Liberality, Generosity, Humanity, Toleration, Culture and Grace. Entrance of Education, Intellect, Knowledge, Reason, Judgment, Strength and Action. Entrance of Fine Arts, Literature, Painting, Sculpture, Architecture, Poetry and Music. Entrance of Science, Perseverance, Invention, Astronomy, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Mechanism. Grand ballet of Arts and Sciences, introducing the Premier Danseuse Assoluta, Mlle. Terestina Maglioni. A superb finale dansante by the Premiers and the entire corps de Ballet. Act III. Scene 1. – The Palace of Progress. Grand ballet of American Inventions. Franklin's Lightning Rod. Whitney's Cotton Gin. Hoe's Printing Press. Morse's Electric Telegraph. Howe's Sewing Machine. Yost's Typewriter. Bell's Telephone. Edison's Phonograph and Electric Light. Scene 2 – The Early Pioneers in the Far West, 1845. Scene 3 – The Close of the War of Secession, 1865. The Famous Schaeffer Troupe, in their Original Marvellous Acrobatic Feats. Scene 5. – The Triumph of Columbia. Congregation of Nations, and Grand Cortege of the States and Territories of the Union.

Do you sleep peacefully? A doubtful compliment. A clergyman particularly noted for his drowsy preaching once asked a lady of his congregation how she liked his sermons. "Oh," she replied, "I enjoy them so much ; they are so restful." The Pilgrim Spring Beds. Everybody enjoys them, they are so restful, for they have every quality of comfort and convenience, every taste, i.e., every refined taste is gratified. They are modern, simple and luxurious. It may be truthfully said, they have been endorsed by the American People, for they were awarded the highest medal and diploma at the World's Fair, 1893, for their peculiar adaptation to every place where beds are used, and the golden comfort they contain. Not long ago a prominent gentleman remarked "If it was the only one in existence, I wouldn't take a thousand dollars for it." This gives a fair idea of what its real value is. Think of it, and he had only used it one week. Such is the invariable testimony of our patrons. A prominent society lady of the Old Colony says: "I don't want you to print my name, but I must say the Pilgrim is just delightful." We receive many testimonials of an equally enthusiastic character, but we never print any without permission. The Pilgrim's come Unslatted, Wooden Slatted, Metal Slatted and Webbed. Avoid imitations, and save yourself disappointment. For sale by reliable dealers everywhere, - Shown at 72 Portland Sreet. See registered brass tag on all genuine.

Her Majesty's Corset. Best in the World. Owing to the fact that Miss Rice, the expert fitter of Her Majesty's Corset, was unable to wait upon the enormous number of ladies who called upon her during her visit to us last fall, we have been fortunate enough to make arrangements with the Princess of Wales Company, manufacturers of this celebrated corset, to have Miss Rice again return to our store for one month, commencing Monday, Feb'y 26th. We trust while Miss Rice is with us that as many ladies as possible will avail themselves of this great opportunity to visit and allow her to fit upon them a pair of Her Majesty's corsets, this illustrating without doubt the magnificent figure it will create, and the perfect satisfaction it will give. We have been the sole agents of this Corset for the past ten years, and have found them to give the most perfect satisfaction. We sold last year 20,000 pairs, and did not receive one complaint. We trust that every lady who possibly can will call upon Miss Rice, and be convinced that Her Majesty's Corset has no equal. Jordan, Marsh & Co., Sole Agents.
