Chickering Quarter-Grand,
First Prize.
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.

ment reprecont the total number of

portion of j.he total sold by Eilers

tion sold by all other dealer com
bined. WHAT DOBS IT ME A If t

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,
