As has been stated, during the past year Graves Music Company has sold three times as many pianos as daring the year before. During the coming year this record is to be doubled. A modern piano business must be continually advertised. Pianos from Graves Music Company last a lifetime. New buyers must be found, therefore when so many new families come to the state almost daily, it is necessary for an institu tion such as ours to keep constantly before the public We want to deter mine where it pays best to advertise. We are willing to pay money to find this out. Thus we publish the adver tising test certificate herein which calls for $40. It is good for so much actual cash, and will be accepted by us as the first payment for any piano in stock. We have marked down all our pianos. Nothing reserved a gen uine price-reduction sale. Select your piano, present your cou pon and hava a fine piano sent home at once. But even this is not nil the induce ments we now offer. If you choose to pay cash, in addition to the cou pon, when you select your piano; we pay a premium of SI for every dollar (hat you pay. Remember, the Bale is now in prog ress. If you have no piano, come right away. If you wish to .order by mail, we assure you that we will make most careful and painstaking selection. We ship instruments subject to examina tion -and trial. All money that has been paid for the instrument will be refunded if on receipt of same it is not found in every way satisfactory and as represented.
