IX BAXD INSTRUMENTS
Xew York. Mayor Gaynor's recent
order against "dummy" musicians In
the various music stands, where the
city has paid for music while the bo
gus musicians went through the mo
tion of playing, has resulted In the
revelation of some secrets of the
trade.
According to the "confession" of an
employe of a' firm that made a spe
cialty of manufacturing Instruments
for the purpose of deceiving the pub
lic, a favorite scheme among the bands
In the parks was the Introduction
of the "second bass drum " At first
the drum had merely a hole in the
framework and was used to carry the
lunches of the band men. Then a
bright Idea struck the maker and the
drum was built so as to hold in sep
parate compartments frankfruters,
sandwiches and beer.
Then the brass horn In similar
style was perfected, with automatic
stopper, guaranteed to hold four gal
lons of liquid refreshment. The ordi
nary allotment, it is said, was two
horns and a bass drum to a band.

Experts Endorse Cnttolene.
".Marlon Harland." Mrs. Janet M.
JI.il. and Mrs. Sarah Tyson Rorer, are
turce cooking authorities whoso names
are familiar to almost every house
v. fe. Each has her own distinctive
methods of work, but It is Interesting
to note that on the all-important ques
tion of a cooking fat, they are unan
imous In recommending COTTOLKN'B.
".Marion Harland" says of COTTO
I.ENE: "It has given complete satis
iictlon," Mrs. Hill says: "Very satis
factory; glad to recommend it." Mrs.
liorer says: "A much more healthful
product than lard."
With such authority behind it, every
housekeeper will be safe In giving
COTTOLENE at least a trial. It is a
vegetable oil shortening, purer and
more wholesome than lard and It Is
cheaper, too, one-third less being required.
