BUILDER GETS BACK COSTLY MUSIC BOX

ST. LOUIS (U. P.).—A music box that cost $1000 in 1915 was back in its builder's hands today, n% 2 a cost of $52.50. Theodore Harris, crippled since childhood with infantile paralysis, installed the music box in the home of Hugh Campbell, late St. Louis

philanthropist, in 1915. He went to an auction of Campbell's properties and bid in the music box at $52.50. The mahogany-cased box plays 12 pieces, including “La Paloma,” “The William Tell Overture,” and the “Angel Serenade.”
