OUR REASONS FOR DOING IT AND HOW WE CAN AFFORD TO We believe that the most effective method of advertising- is to impress thoroughly upon every man. woman and child, tint, the Importance of having-music in the home; second, the Eilers methods of musical in strument selling:, which has made it possible for every home to be pro vided -with a piano or organ, no matter how limited its means. We want to impress upon every one what Kilers Piano House lo ac complishing, and what the Eilers name in the music trade stands for fair dealing, absolute reliability, nlgh quality and reasonable prices. We want everyone who ought to buy a piano, or a pianola piano, or a talking machine, or an organ, to know of Kilers Piano House, Its magnificent line of instrument.,,. and Its money -saving methods. Through the co-operation of some of the leading Ka stern piano and organ makers, -which we represent exclusively in the Coast States, we are able to make a large appropria tion to most thoroughly advertise this Institution. A fraction less than five per cent of our total sales during the ensuing two months wil be devoted to this most far-reaching advertising cam paign, one-half being borne by us. the other half by the respective manufacturers.

LOOKING BACKWARD AND FORWARD Less than tin y-ars ago at 107 First St.. In Portland, the first Eilem piano store was established on the Pn.-iflc Coast. From this oh seure beginning has grown the great chain of Eilers stores now lo cated in forty cities of the States of California. Oregon. Washington, Idaho and Nevada. Ten years have witnessed an astounding evolution In the musleal development of our people. Then a piano was looked upon as a luxury only within the means of the wealtliv. Today no home Is counted complete in which the piano has not been provided for. In the lowliest cottage, as in the most magnificent mansion the piano has come to bo the greatest source of that cheerful ness and pleasure that go to make the Ideal home environment, and with It has come the keen apprecla- -tior of the real value of good music (n making our '.Ives better and more wholesome and more happy. It has been a period of wonderful progress, but there Is still much to be done. There are still thousands of homes with scarcely an Idea of what good music really Is, where the growing generation is entirely de prived of this Influence that goes so far towards making better men and better women. I'ntil these homes have been provided for with the best of all musical instruments the pleno the work of the Eilers stores will not nave been completed. Ten years ago pianos were handled In comparatively limited numbers. Prices were high, even for inferior instruments. Through modern methods. Introduced and fostered by the Kilers Stores, a good piano no longer represents a little forture. but is within the means of all. The Chickering, the Hazelton, the now famous Kimball, the beau tiful Hobart M. Cable, the Lester, the Decker, and even the most fas tidiously extravagant of them all, the Weber pianos owned only by the wealthy in the early years have now become household names among: the people. The Pianola Piano, for music lov ers who cannot devote the requisite time to mastering- an instrument, is now -nore easily obtained than an ordinary piano was ten years ago. Fair dealing, actually giving more for the money than could be ob tained elsewhere, good service and a definitely binding guarantee to pro tect every patron, has been the foundation of the growth of Ballets Stores, and this will continue to ba its policy in the years to some,
