that the President is now. preparing for. congress Is expected to exceed in
length any that be has ever sent- in. According to the best forecast, avail
able, at the executive office of the
White House, it will contain over 40,-
0W words.
Though the President "is spending
every moment available on hla task. It
was etated today that the message
probably would not be ready for dis
tribution to the press associations nn
til Saturday night or Sunday. In his
message, President Taft will urge Con
gress to pass a pension retirement bill bor civil employes. It is not likely that the Prepident will advocate any
particular bill, but will leave this
phase of the matter to congress. Sena
tor Cummins of Iowa, has made a
special study of the pension subject
and there Is a chance that President will consult with him about the pos
sibility of pushing such a bill through
congress.

That the-
Entire Faanily an Play It makes an excellent gift Anyone can play a Starr Player Piano, even a child can operate it, and bring forth from it the most enchanting music. It makes every one an accomplished pianist without previous study or knowledge of musk, giving to the player the ability to master on a piano the most difficult and classical pieces to the simple airs of popular music. The Starr Player is TWO PIANOS IN ONE as it is a piano for hand playing and a player piano for perforated music. The player has become famous all over the country and is greatly in demand for its sweet singing tone. The sale on this piano has become so great that it has been necessary this year for us to build a building purposely for this one piano and soon will be able to meet the remarkable demand.
- - '. .....:...'..-, It is not necessary for you to pay for it now, but can use our liberal credit system, paying so much down and the balance a little at a time until paid for. This way you are using the piano, enjoying its music. If you haven't a piano in your home, buy one now and place it there. You will never regret, but will make others happy. It makes the
home brighter, children happier and as a piece of furniture there is nothing to equal it.
