5This is quite a miniature opuscule, but, written as it is by a practical violin-maker of some eminence, it is well worthy the attention both of makers and students.

12This pamphlet, dedicated to Joachim and introduced by von Wasilewski, is, of course, highly condensed, but as far as it goes it is very valuable to the violin-maker. Every part of the instrument and its appliances are accurately described, with their exact measurements, by reference to illustrative plates. Though, of course, the actual processes of violin-making are not deeply gone into, it is a most invaluable notebook of all the points which a maker must bear in mind from the moment he selects his wood to that when the instrument is ready to be played upon.

18This is a little brochure in which M. Simoutre announces his work, No. 53, and reproduces a series of letters of encouragement from such authorities as Delphin Alard, Emile Sauret, Victor Mahillon, and others. It is in the nature of a mere advertisement.
