nnd there have been tmmll otrlieslras
fur children of the rich which met In tho

Octoher to May In Mr. HishopH ilrnwiliK
rcorn. I hildren from the poorer parlH
of (ho city may rub elbown wilh children
from Fifth avenue, The only question
which come- up when a candidate applbn
to Mr. C'ornu it whether he has talent
nnd fome knowledge of music.
When Mr, ll'mhop ntarted the orches
tra nhi- had no idea that in less than thrri
years It would have forty-one memhets,
mniK of whom nhow ho much talent that
undoubtedly they will follow muio an a
career.
"Mrs. llishop, " said her secretary when
tellini; about the iiri'lieslrit, "was of the
opinion that In or'mi'ini, an orchestra
open to talented children irrespi-etivo of
class she was doing a rimmI thins for her
own daughter ly introdtiein them to
n broadening Influence, the association
with boys and clrls of all walks or life.
Sho has preat bin Ideas of what she would
llko to do for the members when the
organization urmv. If it diil grow.
There was no tellinj: ntmiit that. It
remained to be seen whether there were
youriR IJeethovens mid Tschaikowskys
who could and Would come t the Hisho
drawing room every Saturd.iv morning
to bo taught for two or three hours anil
who Would praelNo faithfully at home
between Saturdays. There may be some
doubt now as to whether the members
include a genius; there Is no doubt at
nil that the member-i. every one of them,
tiro tremendously enthusiastic iilmit their
music lesxion.
"All the expense of the orchestra,"
continued thu secretary, "is borne by
.Mrs. Itlhop. Children get their carfare
and a luncheon Is served to them every
Saturday before they leave her house.
Supposing one of them in the opinion
of the teacher is eligible to a musical
career .Mrs. Kishop will give help wherever
help is needed.
"Why, certainly if a child can't afford
to buy a good iintniment he or she is
given one."
When the orchestra was one year old
it gave its tlrst public concert at the Hotel
I'la.a with eighteen members
from 7 to II) years of agr

chestra Louis !. ( orn.i, its instructor, said
that about ono-tlitril of the members are
girls, that the youngest member, a hoy.
Is ID years, the oldest, also a boy, is 1.").
The net oldest is Mis Mary liishop, who
plays th" piano for the orchestra. Violins
cellos, llutes and cornets are the in-tru-merits
used.
"The ten-year-old boy lioss Davidson is
the concert tm-tor." slid Mr. (.'until,
"lie t.iko all the solo violin pass iges in
a number and never in my life have I
seen such earnestness anil enthusiasm.
I did not intend having :i conceit master
but the little fellow si.'emed so eai nest
that 1 lliially decided that i was perfectly
safe to trust him with the role.
"There are three Italian boys in the
orchestra, who st a good csample of
faithfulness. '1 hero art several Huian
who are anions the easiest of all t teach
and who?" Influence in the orchestra is

The purchase of a piano is the most
important home furnishing purchase a
person can make.
liccaitsc it mown a great deal more
than a question of money.
.1 piano is a lieiiuj thiiuj- it is going
to produce years of enjoyment and educa
tion or years of disappointment and igno
rance. Music is a subtle Ihituj- its influence
grows as you hear it--your knowledge of
its quality enlarges the more you pro
duce it.
A piano that at first may seem to you
to produce the most perfect music will
within a year grate on your ear if it never
had the sweet, pure music best expressed
by the word artistic.
There are two safeguards by which a
purchaser can protect himself. They
apply to the low priced as well as the
high priced instruments. 77 r tjenuinc
reputation of the piano and the integrit;
of the seller.
