You get prices on pianos. They seem just as low as ours. Tha
money price is, but when it comes to quality, durability and tone you
will find us in the lead . We tell you we sell better pianos, at lower
prices and on easier terms, than any other house in the Northwest.
That is a broad statement, which you may regard as mere bombast. .
BUT
When you come to investigate the worth of our pianos, when
it comes to the test of time there will be a marked difference between
the instrument you buy elsewhere and the one you purchase of us at
the same price. .
THIS IS BECAUSE
We have provided ourselves with every facility for handlin g
pianos cheaply. We can afford to give a better piano lor the price
because it costs us less to handle it. Call at our house or write us and
let us substantiate these statements, You will be interested.
We carry the three finest pianos made; instruments that are a
source of pleasure and lasting satisfaction to all who are so fortunate
as to possess one of them. They are the Kimball, of ChicagoTthe
Chickering, of Boston, and the Weber, of New York. J In addidonwe
have some 23 other makes of pianos and a line of beautiful organs
which we sell at prices and on terms that will please you .
