The Wanamaker Piano Store is
Different from Others. Because It is
a Combination of Many Piano Stores
The first advantage here to the customer is the fact that an organization of such wide
scope is able to assemble the very best instruments and dispose of them at prices excep
tionally reasonable.
The second advantage is that the patron, instead of visiting- half a dozen scattered
stores, here finds as great or a greater variety
of instruments from which to choose.
Choosing in this manner leads to the right
choice. With the various pianos within
sounding and seeing" distance one is able to
arrive at a conclusion without being sub ject
to tiiat modern malady, "shoppers fret."
The Best Pianos
In the World
We have no hesitancy in applying that
term to the stock of musical instruments
shown here.
There are thirteen makes of pianos, piano
players, or player-pianos, in more than fifty
patterns. Each of these instruments has a
world-wide reputation — each one is the best
of its class.
What more could the seeker of a piano desire than to be shown, all on the one floor,
the Cfakkenng, the Schomacker. the Emerson, the Kurtzmann, the J. C. Campbell and
the celebrated Knabef
If interested in any of the several playing instruments what more could be desired
than the Angelus, the Knabe-Angelus. the Angefopian, the Emerson- Angelus or the
Autopisßo?
These embrace even- quality known to the makers and users of good pianos.
The Holidays Are Approaching
There is Dp reason why you should defer the matter if you have in mind the pur
chase of a piano as a Christmas gift- On the other hand there are several reasons for
acting promptly.
Tiip assortment of instruments is now unbroken. The holiday rush has not readied
liigh tide. Instruments purchased now may be set aside for delivery within a day or two
before Christmas.
Our terms arc v.ell known for their liberality. Kll>t SLaS.^i£?jEii«i»

PULP AND PAPER INQUIRY
Tariff Board Ascertaining the
Actual Cost.
PROF. EMERY'S STATEMENT
;
Chairman of Board Tells of
CarefuJ Methods Employed
to Obtain Facts.
[From Th» Trlliun* Burrnu.]
Washington. Nov. 15— The Tariff Board ]
has bepun active work In the field to aseer- !
tain the truth repardinp the cost of manu- '
fa^turinsr pulp and paper In the T'nlted .
States and Canada. This was one of the {
preat questions in dispute when Congress
undertook a revision of the "arlff. and it in
the purpose of the Tariff Board to uncover
every possible fact that will show the exact j
situation. Ethelbert Stewart, formerly an
expert employed by the Bureau of Labor.
Is in Immediate charge of the field inquiry,
and under him are half a dozen or more j
experienced men who will visit the prin- ;
cipal mills in this country and Canada.
The following statement r<»pardlnjr the ,
methods that will he employed in this In
quiry was made to-day l.y H. C. Emery, \
chairman of the. board:
The cost schedules for the pulp and paper
Industry %vere worked out with preat care
In hccordanc-e with the general scheme of ,
cost accounting adopted by the Tariff
Board. The purpope has been to have a
clearly denned idea of exactly what whs |
meant by ""cost" and what items of cost j
should be included, and how each item j
Should b* entered. In the case of these j
particular schedules it was found that al- j
though not identical with the cost sheets
of any particular mill, they proved to be
so closely in accord with the Fystems
adopted by leading: concerns, which dif
fered somewhat amonp themselves, that
the matter of flllinK out th« schedules from
the ,-,, shfets of a given mill has proved
n very simple matte:- It has also provea
that the schedules were worked out In a
thoroughly practical manner for business
purposes.
The general scheme adopted has beer, to
divide "cost" into thre<- main divisions:
First, material actually used tn the prod- ,
uct: second, the manufacturing labor act
ually applied to the product, these two !
pivinj: the prime cost: third, all other ex
penses In the case of the particular j
schedules this third item has b«en divided I
into two. namely, "works expense" and |
•"fixed charges." ■ 'fired charges," ln^luJing
"depreciation, insurance and taxe? " In I
the case of rented buildings the Item "rent" j
will take the place of the three items now
included under "fixed charges."
The difficulty in th<» matter of "works ex
pense" and "fixed oharpes=" lies in the prin- |
ciple of prorating overhead charges accord- j
I Ing to unit of product. This proratinp will j
i have to vary from industry to industry. j
I according to the particular conditions. In ;
some cases it will be a function of "labor !
' fost": in others, "material cost," or a com- ;
; nination of the two.
In th" rase of pulp and news prin* paper J
l The question is made simple by th» fact ,
i that, in the main, a single product Is pro- |
! duced, bo that overhead charts can be
j prorated merely aocordinp 10 total product ;
■ Having secured the actual conversion cost j
; at the works from the above fipures a «><»p- I
j arate item is then made for "Befflng ex- ,
i pense." pivinp the total actual cost.
! Thepe schedules' are not theoretical stat - :
! ments of what the hoard hopes to pet but ;
; they show what in this particular industry i
I the board is actually getting through the >
j cordial co-operation of pulp and paper man- :
! ufacturers. Already we have actually ob- j
j tamed a large mass of figures taken direct- :
; ly from the cost sheets and books of dif- •
! ferent concerns, and we have every reason '
I *o expert that other manul'n in the
j pulp and the paper trades will respond in
; the .same spirit.
Bo far as these schedules are concerned :
' they represent merely th*> cost at the mill ;
;of converting a given quantity of pulp ;
wood Into a given product. This is merely ,
i one part of tn* general inveptipation Into |
i this '-chedule The whole question of rela- i
i tlve supplies of raw materials, variations '
;in stumpage. values in different sections
' and over a period of years, and the whole \
| question of relative prices and the general j
; conditions of competition are factors of ;
i equal importance in the Inquiry

■HENHY NOT A CANDIDATE j
Prefers Harmony to Speakership — |
' Clark Has No Programme.
Washington. Nov. 15.— Representative R. j
L.. Henry, of Texas, announced t«..d:> . that I
he was not a candidate for the Pp'-ak- I
of the Houst In the €2d Congress.
"Uppermost in my mind Is Democratic j
harmony and unity,." he said. "I would
rather see this country blessed with Pemi>
cratic victory in the selection of a Presl- \
dent. I nited States Senators and Repre- I
sentatives. than to have the highest honor
the party could now or:fer on me."
"I ive not been commissioned." said j
Champ Clark, who arrived here last night. ;
"to arrange any programme for 'h^ Demo
cratic party, and I am not proing to try to !
do It. In the very nature of things the |
Democrats of the House and Senati will I
have to get together to \i suit about what i
they want to -do and should do when the t
