The Best in the World

PIANOS!
To buy a piano is a serious
undertaking ior most people
because they know absolutely
nothing about the construction
or the requirements necessary
for durability as well as tone
quality and are therefore un
able to determine its value
which may subject the buyer
to great financial loss, leaving
them easy prey for unscrup
ulous salesmen assisted by
the paid advice of a supposed
friend, to substitute a var
nished thump box for a musi
cal instrument with music.
Do you care to take the risk?
Great are the obstacles in
the way of judicious selection
of a piano when a buyer has
no personal knowledge for
they must rely almost wholly
on the advice of the dealer who
can make the way plain for
buying advantageously for the
most inexperienced buyer, if
he so desires, and he will glad
ly do it if he is honorable.
Therefore it is important that
you should use good judgment
in selecting a dealer. He
should be one whom you know
to be trustworthy and fair in
all his dealings and to whom
you can go personally at any
time for explanation and ad-

If you intend to buy let

statements of traveling
agents and peddlers. All
we want is a chance to
give you prices- We can
save you money
vice and on whom you can de
pend on what he tells you con
cerning them.
You can readily understand
why as a rule it is advisable to
"patronize home industry."
This rule will apply in almost
every line, particularly in buy
ing a piano as the dealer is
easily accessible in case atten
tion is required, beside having
sold the instrument it# is to
his interest to see that it is^ in
good condition as a standing
endorsement for him, and a
very important consideration
for the buyer, an advantage he
will not have buying from a
distant dealer.
Not haying the ready money
to pay for the piano need not
stand in the way of purchas
ing. Your home may have
the advantage of a musical in
strument. You can buy on
easy terms, paying for it in
small monthly payments that
will suit your circumstances.
We are making prices on in
struments very much lower
than ever before offered in
this part of the state. If you
think of buying a piano in the
near future it will be to your
interest to take advantage of
this money savingopportunity.
