WILL inaugurate a special cut price sale of the Celebrated Schacffer Piano. This is no "bankrupt stock," no "going out of business" fake, no "cut pnees because of discon tinued styles," Aor any of the time-worn and ancient excuses to mislead. During this sale we will offer nothing but BRAND NEW GOODS DIRECT FROM FACTORY TO CONSUMER. The chief rea:xr.i that a piano costs so much money is that, in the regular way of agency and consignment dealers, it costs from $50.00 to $75.00 to sell one piano. We will sell in fifteen days as many pianos as a local . agent will individualh' sell in a year and at m one-fifth the expense." On our Special Sale plan of Selling pianos, we sell a piano at an average selling ex pense of alxjut $10.00 per piano; the local agent spends $50.00 to $75.00 in order to sell one piano the difference of $40.00 to $65.00 we give to our customer. The purchaser practi cally saves the agent's profit. ' IN short, we will sell you a piano for $167.00 that in the regular way will sell for $235.00; a $275.00 piano at our sale will cost you $198.00; a $300.00 piano for $218; a $325.00 piano for $248; a $400 piano for $298. "You can't believe all you hear," but you can-believe a great deal that you see. COME AND EXAMINE OUR GOODS. " We have no corps of salesmen to pay, no music teacher's commission to add to the 'cost of the piano; so if you find "some so-called protuiucut teachers" against us don't be frightened away but remember they may h.-.vc an ax to grind. Their loss in this case is your gain. 1 ' . " There arc no "thump lo.cs" in our stock. Any piano here is fit to grace the best home in Cairo. Every SCHAKFb'HR warranted ten years.
