168BRETT PIANOS.
169With Patent Micrometer System of Stringing and Tuning.
171THE accompanying diagram is a side elevation or cross-cut section of the Micrometer System of Stringing and Tuning. A represents part of the Iron Frame and Patent Micrometer; B the Micrometer Tuning Plate; C the String Hook; D the String; E the Tuning Screw with the point resting in a groove in the Plate B. By turning this screw, which can be done easily with a clock key, the string is "tuned" to the desired pitch. The Plate B is a segment of a circle and moves upon the curved surface of the Iron Frame as a wheel moves upon its axis. The diagram shows the relative position of the parts when the string is "drawn up to pitch." The Iron Frame A supports the entire strain of the strings. These parts all being metal cannot be injured by careless tuning, climatic changes or overheating; therefore the piano can be tuned 10,000 times without the slightest wear or injury. The tuning screw operates a series of levers. The tuning plate is so designed that the end of it holds the string with such firmness and accuracy that it is impossible for the piano to "get out of tune," except by the stretching of the strings. The position of the string upon the bridge reduces the minimum of friction of the string upon the bridge and the liability of breaking strings. The device is endorsed by many celebrated musicians, mechanical experts and mechanical engineers as the most beautiful and perfect mechanical movement and the most valuable improvement in piano construction in the world. The Brett Piano, mechanically and artistically considered, is the most ornamental, symmetrical, beautiful and perfect model of piano construction, and in quality, volume and durability of construction, it is superior to every piano (without exception) manufactured in this country.

209MANUAL OF MUSIC.
210BY W. M. DERTHICK.
211THIS remarkably practical and comprehensive work has recently been thoroughly revised and greatly enlarged, and in its improved form contains the following features, each of which has received the highest commendation from the most prominent musicians of this country and Europe:
2121.—A complete dictionary of music.
2132.—A series of six colored chronological charts, the ingenuity and practical usefulness of which for purposes of reference and historical study have secured for the author so much deserved praise.
2143.—An excellent photogravure portrait of nearly one hundred eminent musicians, from Palestina and Orlando Lassus to the youngest of great modern composers, Moritz Moszkowski.
2154.—Extended biographies of over fifty of the most prominent musicians of the music, past and present.
2165.—Carefully prepared analyses of over two hundred characteristic works, showing their form, content and technical requirements.
2176.—Over fifty specimen compositions for historical and artistic illustration from the best foreign editions.
2187.—Complete Dictionary of Technical Terms and Phrases.
2198.—Complete Dictionary of Important Musical Works, Instruments and Institutions.
2209.—Complete Dictionary of Musical Artists and Composers.
221Each Dictionary gives the foreign pronunciation of every difficult word, phonetically spelled, so that absolute accuracy may be instantly acquired. The work is therefore not exclusively a description and is securing a sale quite unprecedented in the history of musical literature. The publishers invite correspondence with any to whom music is congenial and who may desire to secure a permanent and lucrative position. Address
