PIANO BUYING MADE

J For more than half a century Lipman, Wolfe & Co.
have stood for the highest ideals in merchandising, selling only '
goods of merit and asking only fair and consistent prices.
J Realizing to the fullest degree this fact, we decided -to
add a piano department to our store, and more than a year
ago opened for Ivaslness on the seventh floor.
J Our trustworthy methods have established that nec
essary confidence which piano buyers have been looking for.
J What is the result? Our piano business has grown
keryoael all expectatiosas.
q Our "Musical Floor" is one of the most attractive
departments in our great store, and every one is welcome to
come and bring their friends, see and play our beautiful pianos,
hear the latest song hits on the player rolls, and learn how it is
possible to bey high grade, standard pianos at the low prices
we ask.
J We have only one price, the lowest possible price.
By eliminating the big overhead expense attached to an exclu
sive store, we naturally sell pianos much cheaper here.
I People marvel at the wonderful values we offer in
pianos and player pianos. And our terms are always satisfactory
and we charge less interest on deferred payments than some
piano stores charge.
J We offer no "special" inducements except the legiti
mate sales a big department store naturally has to offer on ac
count of the great volume of business we do, thereby acquiring
many good second hand pianos which we must offer for sale
to make room for new JCnibes, Haines' Bros., Sterling, Behning,
Schaff Bros., and other splendid pianos.
I Buy your piano, player piano and grand piano from
us, and with the money you save here buy a Si 00 Liberty Bond
We will else take yottr Liberty bond in trade at par

War Not to Blame

It Is somewhat refreshing anyway;
though It doesn't stretch the pay check
any nearer towards meeting tha grocery
bill, to have Mr. Howe, who Is commlse
sioner of Immigration at the port of NW
York, tell us that the war is not re
sponsible for the high cost of living. W'f
probably have been blaming It on to the)
war just because the war is so handy
to take the blame for every old thing,
but Mr. Howe points out, and truthfully
enough, too, that living costs were soar
Ing sky-high even before war was de
clared. War Intensified the condition,
and aggravated it. says Mr. Howe, but
that's all. -
The real reason, then? This; Monop
bly. operating as It does to control Hat
ural resources and the agencies of trans
portatlon, distribution and marketing. It
has Increased prices. It has discouraged
agriculture. Tribute Is exacted from the
consumer at one end of the Una and
from the producer,, at the other. .
Relief. Mr. Howe says, will only come)
when the conditions surrounding agricul
ture and the means of distribution ars
radically altered, and this can be ao
compllshed. he points out. only by law,
