Come! Let Us Call the Whole Family
Together.__Let Us Lay Aside for the
Moment the Air of Mystery Surrounding
Christmas Giving and Have a Straight­
forward Talk About Giving the Whole
Family the Best Present • of All : : :
(/Vo«?/ Somebody Confess First!) We all know that we want
a piano—we know the very corner where it will be placed.
But as each Christmas approached we" permitted our atten­
tion to wonder over the great field of individual gifts, choos­
ing this one and that, forgetting the FAMILY GIFT—the
most important of all.
(GoodI That is True— True for us All, isn’t it?) But you know
how it has been—money is not so plentiful that we could
make the usual number of individual gifts and also get a
great big one for the FAMILY. It seemed out of the ques­
tion. Yet through all the days from one Christmas to
another we have wished we had arranged it somehow—the
house is so glum at times without a piano!
(Yes, None of Us haPe eOer felt Quite Right about it.) And pro­
bably we would have gone on in the same way, year after
year, just for lack of a leader—somebody to take the initia­
tive, but this year the leader has bean supplied from outside.
The Eiler Music .House has just made an announcement that
points the vOay.
(No Wonder all seem Surprised— This is Unusual.) For exam­
ple, we can select a Chickering Quarter Grand, the price of
which is $768. We will have to pay only $50 for the first pay­
ment. Thereafter, because of the special Christmas terms,
we will pay only $25 a month. If we choose the Eiler EH
Model upright piano at $318, an instrument thoroughly war­
ranted by Eilers, the first payment is $10, and the monthly
payments $6 for the first year.
(Well, th a t’s the use of Talking Purser about it?) We are all
of one mind—that’s evident from the happy faces. Only
thing to do is to visit the Stockwell-Rice Music Company and
choose. Not only the Chickering and Eilers pianos are ob­
tainable on such terms, but the Smith & Barnes, the Kimball
and 35 of the best makes.
(Oh—you vOould rather hade a Player-Piano?) Well, leave that
to a family vote. It ought to carry, since everybody who
votes for the player-piano can play it whenever the whim
seizes. Won’t the house be merry then*, Mother and the
little chap can play as well as sister. If we decide upon a
player-piano we have a wide choice at Eilers Music- House,
and the instruments are the best in the world. The same
liberal terms apply to player-pianos as to pianos.
So it’s all settled—and the best of it is
we can go right ahead with our individu­
al gifts. Eilers pianos at

We have made some pretty broad state­
ments in our advertising, concerning
our shoes. If they aren’t true the
public aught to know it; if they are
true the public should know this, also.
There’s only one way to find out. Come
in and buy a pair. We are willing to
leave the truth of our claims to your
own individual experience.
