THE NEW HYMN BOOK, by Rev. Drs. Hitchcock, Eddy and Mudge.

Rev. J. S. DICKSON, Pastor Woodland Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia, and a rare musician and singer, says: “I have just gone over the ‘Carmina Sanctorum,’ by Rev. Drs. Hitchcock, Eddy and Mudge, and find that it is by all odds the best hymnal I have ever seen.”

Rev. THOS. B. McLEOD, Clinton Avenue Church, Brooklyn. N.Y.—“It satisfies me beyond anything of the kind I have ever seen. Of course, the names of the editors warranted high reputation. But considering the progress made in the direction and the number of fine Hymn Books recently published, I was not prepared to see a work so eclipsing as this.”

EDWARD H. MERRILL, Pres’t Ripon College.—“The ‘Carmina Sanctorum’ is a superb book in all ways. I advise Churches about to change books to examine this one.”

Rev. PHILIP SCHAFF, D.D.—“It is a model collection.”

Rev. P. T. FARWELL, Stockbridge, Mass.—“The book is a thorough delight.”

E. C. EVANS, St. Paul, Minn.—“It has already contributed not a little to the enriching of the devotional part of our services.”

CONGREGATIONALIST.—“One of the most practically serviceable hymnals which we have seen.”

_Hymns and Songs for Social and Sabbath Worship._ 75 cts.

“Hits the Golden Mean.”

FOR PRAYER & PRAISE MEETINGS.

SUNDAY SCHOOL TIMES, PHILADELPHIA.—“It is a book of great merit, as might be expected from the character and experience of its editors.”

INDEPENDENT, NEW YORK.—“Any congregation that likes to have its hymnal represent careful thought and full culture, would do well to examine this collection of Carmina Sanctorum.”

EVANGELIST, NEW YORK.—“The hymns are only the choicest, and they have been carefully edited by that accomplished authority in hymnody, Dr. Hitchcock. As the American Churches have grown in taste and capacity for musical expression in worship, this book seems to meet their wants completely, giving them plenty of tunes they can and will sing, and at the same time educating their taste and improving their public worship.”

The Newest Church Hymn Book, and the Best.

“The nearest to perfection.”

THE NEW AMERICAN
ROLLER ORGAN

PERFECTION IN MECHANICAL
MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS ATTAINED
AT LAST.

=PLAYS ANY TUNE= arranged for it, from a lively waltz to the slowest church music, with =perfect tunes and concert time=. Gives better satisfaction than a =Hundred Dollar Parlor Organ= and will give ten times more pleasure. =Plays Two Hundred Different Tunes= in a superb manner and charms every listener. Beyond a doubt the grandest and most marvellous Musical instrument ever presented to the great music loving public of America. This is a new instrument never before offered and should not be confounded with the cheap Automatic instruments. It is as much superior to them as the Silver Tongued Cornet is to the ear piercing Fish Horn. No perforated strips of paper to bother the player and require frequent replacing. =THE NEW AMERICAN ROLLER ORGAN= is operated upon a somewhat similar plan as the =FINEST FIVE HUNDRED DOLLAR FRENCH MUSIC BOXES=, from a roller with metal pins; the pins operate upon valved keys, made of finely tempered steel, the roller being connected with the gearing which also works the bellows. The working parts of this magnificent instrument are made of solid metal, are easily taken apart or examined. No better workmanship is found in the most expensive musical machinery. The instrument is thoroughly made and yet so simple a child can operate it without fear of injuring it in any way. The rollers are made of light wood and the bearings and pins which are made of metal, =WILL NEVER WEAR OUT=. This instrument is the Perfection of Musical ingenuity and =PLAYS MARCHES=, =WALTZES=, =POLKAS=, =JIGS=, Reels, Sacred music, selections from Operas, Popular Songs, etc., and is peculiarly arranged for playing =DANCE MUSIC= in perfect time. If you have purchased any other style of an Automatic Musical Instrument and have found it a disappointment and a nuisance =YOU SHOULD SEND FOR ONE= of the above described instruments. Nothing grander, more reasonable in price or combining so many desirable features can be found in French or Swiss Music Boxes. For a short time these instruments will be offered for =Seven Dollars= in =BEAUTIFULLY CARVED CASES= with Music. Send for one and take our word for it, it will fill you with astonishment and delight. Send money by Post Office order, Registered letter or by Express. Address all Orders to =World M’f’g Co., 122 Nassau Street, New York=
