to that effect. The,boxes were lqur\d to

In view of such horrible facts as those stated

ter of rejoicing that ono civFlizcd government

OPINIONS OF THE PJU&SS:
Among the manufacturers of Piano fortes, who
have become favorably known durihgthe past few
years Is the yonng house of Louis Bene ft Co.,
whioh possessing energy and practical knowledge
has attained a /tattering noeition, enjoying the eon-
ftdenee of the publio and warmly commended by
the professionals. These pianos are notieeabls tor
their elcar aad brilliant tone to whleh their special
approvement in the agraffe nnquestionably eea-

The pianos of Berge A Co., are lo be specially
commended ou aoeount of their sweetness, reaon-
uoe and power. The toneh slso pottMses a ffm-
ness as' well aa elaetiolty whleh ars qaalities rare-
ly found eombiaed, but whleh partionlarly fit
these Instruments for ladies'use.
It eannot be said of every plane that the tone can
be "forced" without its beeomiag harsh' and disa-
greeable to the ear. In the Pianos of Berge ACe.,
however one need never be afraid to strike aaaa,
ralthongh at the same time all the graduatien of ef-
fect and tone to l-isxissixos are equally possible on
