In the Eilers stores, .as above stated, are the only stores in the world where you can find practically all of the high-grade pianos in one salesroom, wnere every Instrument has an equal show and where you can truly Judge the tones of the various makes. In other Darts of the country you find the Chickering is sold by one dealer, the Sohmer is sold by another dealer, the Hazelton by still another dealer, the Kimball by another dealer, the Haddorf sold by some other dealer, and so on down the entire list of over thirty dif ferent makes handled by the one big piano house. un very rare occasions tnere are a few places where you will find two or three makes in one store, but at Ellers you find even the Steinway, the Weber, the Kranich & Bach, Vose & Sons, or the Steck, the Wheelock, the various makes of pianola player pianos, and the same conditions exist with player Pianos, baby grand pianos, autopiano baby grand player pianos. The Eilers Music House would like to demonstrate at any time, either during the day or In the evening, all of the various makes. Xoesn't it really stand you in hand to consider such a wonderful opportunity of deciding for yourself where the same tone condi tions are found to be exactly alike, giving every instrument and every manufacturer an equal show to please you as to tone? ALL PIAXOS SOLD BT EILERS CARRY THEIR UXCO.VDITIOJVAL GUARANTEE. That means if for any reason a piano is not what It should be or is not as represented, their money-back guar antee assures you of no financial loss under any circumstances. FREE' TRIAL AGREEMENT. If for any reason, at any time within two years, a piano purchased of us is not thoroughly satisfactory it can be exchanged for any of the 80 different makes handled by Eilers Music House, and all money will be applied on the Instrument selected. THE TRULY GREAT PLAYER PIANOS ARE FEW, H I'.I V ; THOROUGHLY COVERED BY PATENTS. The Chickering Artigraphic. the most expensive of all player pianos, the one and only American-made instrument which successfully reproduces the playing of the great artists. Xor this particular instrument the artist plays the original roll personally, and all rolls made from this one master roll give a flawless reproduction of the artist's interpretation, his technique, expression, and even his temperament and feeling at the time he plays the piece. There is only one other instru ment that attains this marvelous re sult. It is the Welte-Mignon, made in Germany. This instrument is also han dled exclusively by Eilers. There are many imitations, but the only perfect instruments of this kind are the two above-mentioned pianos, which are sold exclusively by Eilers, not at the high price that you would imagine they would be sold, but at a much less price than sold in any- other part of the world. Even though you do not intend to buy, you certainly should call at the store of the Eilers Musio House and enjoy a musical treat by the great artists. The Eilers Music House would like to demonstrate these instruments for you at any time. Tou would really be surprised what an interesting proposition the manu facturers' representatives have to make during this Manufacturers' Emergency and Surplus Sale. What Could Be a More Appropriate Christmas Present Than a Piano Stool, n Grand piano Bench, or a Nice Player Piano Bench f We have a large number of used nianos taken in exchange for the world's best player pianos, the Chick ering, ana uncle &am s cnoice, inn Autopiano. The Chickering and the Autopiano all have the modern track ing device, metal tubing, 5-point motor. selector buttons, flexible striking fin gers, and all of the latest improve ments. Some of the instruments men tioned below have the up-to-date im provements, but a great many are itted with clap-trap buttons, pointers and a lot of other unnecessary confus ing and complicated devices that are not necessary in the modern player piano. Therefore, we are closing them out at unbelievably low prices. They are all either used or shopworn, but are in perfect, guaranteed condition.
