Club B.
Over four hundred tine new pianos were
sold inside of five weeks in the Fall of
i9o2 by Eilers Piano House on the co op
erative plan, whkh was then for the first
time introduced in western piano selling.
The idea originated in Philadalphia, and
is a plan that appeals at once to the best
judgment of practical people. Five hun.
area Pianos can be sold in five lots a great
deal cheaper than they can be sold in the
regular retail way to five hundred individ
ual buyers.
it is the same principal of selliug large
quantities to a single arm applied to sell'
ing One Hundred Pianos to as many peo
pie who unite in one Club for that pur
pose.
TWO MONTHS PREPARATION.
Over two months of most painstaking
preparation nave been devoted to these
five new piano clubs. Over a hundred
thousand dollars worth of strictly standaid
brand new fully waranteji pianos are in'
volved, among them the most costly Kim
balls, and Chickerings, and Webers, to
gether with such famous makes as the
Vose, the Hobart M. Cable, the Hallet &
Davis and twenty other highgrade makes.
BETTER THAN LAST YEAR.
There is no question no was to our abili
ty to rill these clubs. No one ill have
to wa't now for others to join, nor until
the club is filled to get his or her Piano.
Members of these clubs do not even have
to know now who the other members of
the club are. Selection is not limited to a
few makes. The entire Eiler's Piano
House lines are included in these clubs.
The instruments are here in Portland for
you to select from. They have been com
ing in each day at the rate of two or more
carloads, and on one single day last week
no less than nine carloads arrived. When
you have chosen your piano and made the
initial payment the piano is delivered
promptly, accompanied by the manufactur
er's guarantee and also by Eiler's Piano
House. "Money back if not satisfactory"
agreement. And the payments range from
$1.50 a week (or 5 a month to J1.60. S2
and $2.50 a week, or correspondingly
amounts if yoUpreferto pay by the month.

The saloons in the town have been no
tified to keep the ooys ort of their places
of business and one saloon man was
hauled up before the city recorder Satur
day and fined $10 as an object lesson.
While most of the saloons in the city
are disposed to treat the matter in the
right light.there are those who have vio
lated the law bv selling drinks to mi
nors and allowing youths of yet tender
vears to take a hand in games of chance.
Boys found loitering about saloons after
this will be placed under arrest as will
alto tbe saloon keeper. This is a long
step in the right direction and no one
ought to object to it.
