Eilers Music House Redeem Contest Checks $100 Checks Worth $147 In a big city like Portland rent plays a most Important part when It comes to fixing prices on goods which are to be sold at retail. Years ago, when they started In business In Portland, Ellors Music House realized this, and as Is their custom, began by making definite plans at that time to in some way off set what they know the future would bring them. L e high rents. They succeeded most admirably, and today their books show that they have a rental Income instead of a rental ex penditure. They also figured down every other Item of expense in the handling of pianos In an equally clever way, and have so reduced the cost of selling that even if they were compelled to pay as much for pianos as all other dealers In this city do, they could still sell cheaper. EILERS MUSIC HOUSE sells more than twenty per cent cheaper than others because of the enormous economies effected In the cost of ship ping, handling and selling. We have so far this year bought more than ten times as many pianos as any other dealer In this city, and even a school boy knows that a big buyer gets much lower prices than does a small one. It Is thus that when a competitor offers to accept $100 factory checks, EILERS MUSIC HOUSE can name the same price on the same piano, discount the price the amount of the check and still sell for 147 less than the piano would cost you in actual cash at the competing factory branch house, thus beating their price $147.
