The
New Lease Secures Entire Upstairs But
Occupancy Cannot Be Obtained Until
This Winter. Extensive Improve
ments and Alterations Planned. New
Recital Hall to Be Best Appointed in
the West. Further Particulars of the
Big Deal.
, i
It was indeed a busy sight to be
hold at the famous old "Quarter
Block" yesterday. Even with the
augmented delivery service of Ave
large vans, which have been working
night and day, it was impossible to
deliver all the instruments which
were sold last Friday and Saturday.
Commingling with the draymen were
the carpenters, who commenced yes
terday morning in deadly earnest to
remove walls and partitions and im
provements 'hat are to be made.
It does not seem to be gene ally un
derstood , however, that Eilers Piano
House is Jnow praotioally out of the
retail city business. The big store,
like several cf its fellow stores in the
same Mock Is vaoant and awaiting for
the new tenants.
As stated heretofore, we were for
tunate in securing at the very last
moment a new five-year lease on the
upstairs of the block, but the upstairs
portion is now ocoupied by Portland's
leading business college, for which
institution a fine new building is now
beina erected on the corner of Tenth
and Morrison streets. When the new
building is completed we are to take
possession of the old premises here.
They will be converted into the most
beautiful, most 'convenient and best
lighted piano salesrooms in the United
States.
Will Open in the Fall. ,
But until these wa' y changes are
completed and possesion has been
securrd, Eilers Piano House is com
pelled to remain out of the retail
piano trad As soon as possible after
October 1 ' we shall commence work
remodelling the upstairs premises.
Convenient stairways and a modern
elevator will he installed. Several
fine musio studios en suite or single
will also be provided. We shall have
a fine recital hall, twice as large as
our former one ; a fine deolian and
Pianola library room, and also talking
machine parlors will be some of the
noteworthy leaturns.
The upper or western portion of the
block formerly devoted to Aeolian
Hall wil be remodeled and rebuilt, as
an nntrance to the new upstairs sales-
moms, a nnrtion also Leiug devoted
to show windows, delivery rooms and
private offices of the various manag
ers. I
In the o'd Aeolian Hall is now lo
cated temporarily the Pianola sub'
oiiution library and in the front por
tion will be found The Oregonian
Premoim talking machine reoord dis
tributing department.
Offices Will Remain.
The new arrangement will not ne
cessiatte the removal ot the general
and wholesale offices to our whole,
sain nnners at Thirteenth and Nor
fhnn streets. A clever architect has
Bolvnil the Duzzle a to their location
by erecting a mezzanine floor in the
north ot the western portion of our
now nnnrters. which is now being
hnilr, . Here is where the city book-
kneners and also th general and
wholesale accounting departments
will ho 'located. A commodious fire
.tA hnrirlar-nroof safety deDOsit vault
ia ta he -"installed in another part of
.hn nrnmises. In short, by late fall
the establishment of Eilers Piano
Hnnsn will be as complete, and as
hnrnnchlv convenient, as any in the
TTnion. and probably equal to the
very bast of them iii attractiveness;
Big Saving In Rent. "
And, best of all. the new arrange
ment will. mean a saving in rent' to
v.tira Pinuo House of. over $33,000
for the five-year lease, an average of
S7.800 a year. This benefit alone will
enable Eilers Piano Hons this fall to
nffr nianos and musical merchandise
on more advantageous terms than ever. Transacts a General Banking Business,
heretofore. j .
Telephone number remains as here-
t.nfnra. "Exohanee 23." City and
country collections will be paid at the
old office Bame as before, only that
during alterations our offices will
have to ue shifted to various portions
of the hall. It will be the aim of the
doutraotors to cause as little inoon
venienne as possible to nailers. Dust
and dirt will be carefully voided,
and our bookkeeping work will pro
ceed with the very least inteiruption.
The olo street number, "351" will be
retained (in reality it will be 353
though).
Temporary Display Rooms.
We have arranged to inaugurate an
automobile and carriage service be
tween our present quarters and our
wholesale department at the corner of i
Thirteenth and flortnup streets, tor
the convenience ot those who desire to
purchase a Chickering or a Weber, or
a Kimball, or a Pianola piano, Pian
oU or organ, etc,, etc. Suitable tem
porary showrooms will be fitted up at
the warehouse to properly display the
instruments.
Pianos will also be supplied for con
certs and rental, as heretofore, but all
applications must be made at our
oowntown offices, 351 Washington

Truths About Artificial Teeth
The great majority of Dentists
represent to their patients that a
rubber plate with fourteen teeth
set in a half circle is jnst as good
as anything else for a set of artifi
cial teeth.
Some make such representations
knowing them to be false, others
because they know no bf tter.
The responsibility for this con
dition rests with the Dental pro
fession, A great many people
would not accept a rubber or cell
uloid plate if they only, understood
the superiority of the metal plate
in cleanliness, healthfulness and
dunbil ty.
We would like to talk with you
about metal plates for artificial
teeth. Seventeen years in dentistry
in Oregon City. Post Graduate Hoskell and Chicago School of Dentistry.
We guarantee to please you. A square deal to every one.
