If it is satisfactory it gives daily pleasure and comfort, whereas, if not found worthy, it is a constant source of annoy ance and disappointment. Should the intending purchaser have no' personal experience, he would naturally have to rely either on the reputation of the dealer or the advice of his friends when buying. ' Ask any-body which is the best piano, in the world, and ninety-nine out of a hundred will at once reply the temway Jriano But what everybody does .not know ' the positive fact that the percentage of profit on the sale of a Steiirway piano is less than that or other makes, and hence the Steio-'" way, notwithstanding its higher jrice, is, after all, the cheapest, as it represents the greatest intrinsic piano value" for every dollar expended.' If you have an old Steinway you have a piano with a greater cash value today by 50 to 75 per cent than any other make. The new models, the Steinway Vertegrand Piano at $575, and the Steinway Miniature Grand Piano at $850, are the most recent exponents of Steinway genius, and the public is earnestly requested to examine and try these remarkable instruments be fore purchasing elsewhere.
