The St. Johns match factory had quite a disastrous Are Wednesday evening. Fire started In the dipping and packing room of the factory, and before help could ar rive it was destroyed. The store room had quite a large stock of manufactur ed matches on hand, and all were con sumed. The loss, including the stock and building, amounted to about $500. The burled structure was about GO feet east of the main building, where the machln ery Is located. if you want to buy a good horse you go to a man who understands horses. If you want a house built you go to a man who understands building houses. If you want to find out whether a signature Is genuine, or a forgery you go to a man who has made a study of such things. And so on. Everybody appreciates the value of an expert opinion. When you buy a piano, therefore, It Is just as essential to go to a man who has made a study of pianos one who has, absolute knowledge of the various pianos that are manufactured today an expert. The men who are connected with tillers Piano House are experts. They have not taken up the piano business Incidentally, but they are In the piano business today because they have made it and the manufact ure of pianos a life study. They un derstand every detail in the business, every detail In the piano Itself. Years of traveling and years devoted to the wholesaling "and manufacturing of pi anos, with sixteen years of continued study of American and foreign makes have given them the most discrimi nating knowlege of what constitutes a good instrument. All of our experience has been em bodied In the selection of our pianos. It Is fair to say that we are In a po sition to assert positively that we have the three greatest pianos manu factured in America, I. e., the celebra ted Chlckerlng, of Boston, the beau tiful Weber, of New York, and the now famous and superb Kimball, of Chicago. We have the' choice of practically all the high grade pianos manufact ured, and there is not a factory In America that would not be pleased to have us handle its goods. We choose these three great pianos in preference to any others on the market. We did it because, we believe they are the best pianos that money can buy. . In addition to these superb instru ments we have about twenty-five other makes so that It Is possible for us to suit every taste and meet every demand for pianos and organs for whatever purpose they are Intended.
