it "one of the most forcible instruments for training, for arousing and for governing the mind and the spirit of man."
The new Orthophonic Vie- trola musical marvel of the age, furnishes the finest music for the home. Whenever you. wish. Without regard to sca- son or hour. Music to meet the mood of the moment. Endur- ing operas. Great symphonies. Delightful songs. Lively dance
music.
All played or sung by the world's foremost artista.
Hear the Orthophonic Vics ! trold play the wonderful new Victor Records, made the new. Victor way. In no other way. can you have such music in your home. For this, great in- strument is based upon the new, acientific principle of. "matched impedance," which gives full value to every note,
depth, roundness, flawless reproduction!

CREDENZA
Appliuntion,
The principle is controlled ex- clusively by the Victor Talking Machine Co.
There is no way to describe the music that flows in a golden flood from this amazing instru ment, except to say that it duplicates the original rendi tion without loss or deviation. As a camera brings you pic- tures,the Orthophonic Victrala brings you music that is a per-, fect likeness of the original."
The beauty of the Victor cabinets matches the beauty of the music itself. They are fashioned from choiceat. woods by craftsmen whose lives have been devoted to fine cabinet- making.
