Gordon Institute, Barnesville, Ga., one of the leading institutions of learning in this section, with a Music department that stands second to none and under the direc
tion of capable and educated musicians, last week opened a competition among the leading music houses of the country for the supplying of the Music departmeut with a
complete outfit ot uew Upright Pianos. This brought into direct comparison the merits of the different makes of Pianos, and no such searching tests have heretofore been
given Pianos in the State of Georgia. It gives the Cable Piano Company pleasure to state that after a careful and conscientious examination of the various makes the famous
JCINCrSIU RA PIANOS were selected to go into the Gordon Institute, on account of the beauty of tone, perfect action, artistic case designs, and a durability that will with
stand the hard usage a Piano is subject to in school work. Messrs. B. M. Turner and J. W. Stafford, president and secretary of board of trustees of Gordon Institute, have
kiudlv given us permission to publish their letter:
Gordon Institute, Barnesville, Ga. Barnesville, Ga., June 24, 1898.
H. B. MORENUS, Manager Cable Piano Co., Atlanta, Ga.—Dear Sir: At a special meeting of the Board of Directors, held this day, it was unanimously voted to
place au order w th you for the purchase of six new Style B Kingsbury Pianos, to be used in the Musical Department of the Gordon Institute of this city. In purchasing these
Pianos of you it gives us pleasure to state that we have selected the Kingsbury in preference to many other makes which are now being used in various colleges in the State,
on account, as we believe, of its superiority in tone, action, wearing quality, and the excellent and workmanlike manner in which the cases are finished. You may deliver the
above number of Pianos immediately. B. M. TURNER, Pres. Board Trustees Gordon Inst; J. W. Stafford, Sec. and Treas.
The selection of a Piano is a serious matter, and especially 30 when one is not familiar with the various makes. The decision of the trustees and musical faculty of the
Gordon Institute is an aid to any one in making a selection. Profit by the investigations of these well known people and buy a Kingsbury.
More Kingsbury Pianos are being sold in the southern states to-day than any other make of Piano in the world.

The Pari These Busy Workers Play lu t he
Fertilisation of Flowers.
Barnoy Hoskin Standish writes as
article on “The Bumblebee” lor Sk
Nicholas. Mr. Standish says: The work
of the tumb-ebee in bringing about- the
cross fertilization of flowers is u.s im
portant as that of the honeybee-, cisd
Ihese two stand at the head f the list
8f insects useful in this respect. Each
has its flowers which it alone visits,
but there are many flowers on neutral
ground visited by both. So we may
say of the bumblebee, as if the honey
bee, the more bumblebees the more
seeds; the more seeds the more flowers
—especially wild flowers, as the tall
bellflower, touch me not, Solomon’s seal,
gentian, Dutchmen’s breeches and tur
tle head. But probably the most impor
tant work this insect does for agricul
ture is upon the fields cf red clover.
There is abnndant proof that this plai^b-
will not produce seed without the dqL
operation of the bumblebee. It- is im.-
possible for the wind to bring about th$
fertilization of the seed, as it may ck)
in the case of Indian eoru, grain and
some forest trees. The tube of red clo
ver blossoms, too, is so long that other
insects (including the honeybee) ere
not regular visitants.
Here is proof that this plant must
have visits from the bumblebee. This
insect- is not a native of Australia, and
red clover failed to produce seed there
until bumblebees were imported. As
soon as they became numerous the plant
could be depended upon for seed.
Again, the blossoms of the first crop of
the Medium lied clover of our own
country are just as perfect as those of
the second crop, but there are too few
bumblebees in the field, so early in the
season, to produce fertilization, hence
little or no seed in this crop. If bumble
bees were sufficiently numerous, there
is no reason why much larger yields of
clover seed might not be expected than
at present.
Here is what a well informed farmer
says about it :
“It was formerly thought that the
world rested on the shoulders of Atlas.
I can prove that its prosperity rests on
the bumblebee. The world cannot pros
per without the farmers’ product. The
farm will not be productive without
clover. We cannot raise clover without
seed, and we cannot have clover seed
without the bumblebee, because it is
this insect that carries the pollen from
flower to flower, securing its develop
ment and continuance. Let us learn to
know and to protect; our friends. ”
Costs Nothing.

It only takes a few minutes and costs
absolutely nothing to step m the music
rooms in the Hudson House Block and
verify for yourself the statements made
in regard to the great closing out sale
of pianos and organs. They are mark
ed. -. r i plain figures, and the instruments
speak for themselves. They are first-
class in every particular, and fully
guaranteed. Think of buying such ur
instrument at less than cost, and upon
easy pa ymen ts.

Tom Keene was a good story telier-
“For ten years, ” so went one of his
tales, “I bought all my theatrical cos

much of that time I was playing many
new parts in the old California theater
stock company of San Francisco my
trade was a matter of considerable im
portance. When I was about to leave
the slope and come east, I went to make
a final order and bid my costumer good-
by. ‘I’m very sorry you’re going,’ he
said. ‘Here, Jake!’ calling to a clerk.
‘Run out and get Mr. Keene a good
