This statement was made dy Mark H. Savage, representing the Allen & Gil-bert-Ramaker Co., the largest piano and organ house in the entire North west. Coming as it does from one who has sold instruments in nearly every county in the state, it speaks volumes, for the culture and good citixenship of our people, as there is nothing that so surely points to those attributes as the love of music. This is Mr. Savage's third trip to To ledo with pianos and organs, and he has brought with him some of the very best instruments carried by this well known firm, and has them on exhibi tion in the Lnndreth buildiug, where he will be pleased to have the people call, whether they intend purchasing or not. Mr. Savage has sold to some of the best people of the conctr. covcrin? n mrin of over five years, and he has never hod a dissatisfied customer. This is the very best recommendation that a firm and its representative can hnve. us it ' sorely shows square dealing. It will pay those who are contemnM ing purchasing an instrument to nail on Mr. Savage and let him show hii goods anrt explain the easy-payment plan on which bis firm sells. Anions who really wants an instrument can naye one by navine a little mnh mnnti, You will not miss the monnv. nnrt in the end you will hnve somethiog you win De proud of, and somothing that will give you more real eniovment thnn anything in whioh you will invest a like sum of money.
