"We have pabsed several similar ordinances that have been- la validated, hv ,n,rtAni Ions and Invariably the neonia whn h.v. paid the license fees have been poor ex pressmen who could 111 afford to pay.

No other player has the ,Melbdant,H ftbe marvelous devicewhich separates tnelodjrand har--mony, just as in hand, playing. - None has the Phrasing Lever, which places; the Entire control of phrasing under ' the touch of 4ne finger. " No other player, has the dia phragm pneumatics, the automatic, self-opening pedals; no other permits the use of every music roll made, and v none gives such perfect musical satisfaction, . : ; H Seeing and hearing the Angelus enables the buyer to make intelligent comparison. Therefore do not neglect4 your own interests. .. . , ; CI Angelus player pianos are no more expensive than the ordinary types of players, and may be purchased on easy - payments.
