IMPORTANT NOTIGE
If ou want a piano' and can 'spjirev$lb or $12 a inbhth, or even as little as $G, $7 or .fS montbly, this is certainly the time io lake advantage of our pri.e jhc;k, whiah ah as good as ho niuuh
dash-lioiW.'-" .,',i..'v,.u.!' ' r i . ' n , '" " ui ' '"''. - - ' i'.
FOR EXAMPLE:
Cf Take a new style Iviinball piano, retlhrvalue every where $525. Our regular selling price of this piano is $-127, thus saving you $98. We now make an additional discount lo all C I KOIC .HOLD
ERS of $59, which makes the price to you. $3G8. Subtract from- this amount the amount of your cash check. Jor example, say $108. The balance remaining, $2(50, is then what tho cost is lo
you in cash or on monthly payments, of one of the finest, most durable and 'sweetest tone styles of the nation's foremost makes of pianos, llio Kimball, of which nearly. 300,000 pianos have
been sold: j ? llwiH-i ' ..... . , . i , -,,.. imp? i .
t ,.; - Time on all Checks Extended until August 3Qth,19f 11 '
' fl k 'telegram from the PIANO rAlSTUFAGTURERS, BUREAU, CHICAGO, received at Portland Angust 15th, has extended the time on all filers .Music J louse Checks to August HOth.'- . .
CJ ONE THOUSxVNT) DOLLAR will be paid in GOLD to ain- charitable institution if it is proven that Eilcrtf Music House raise the price of any piano on account of redeeming iheir cash checks.
ALSO ABJLLOP'SiViJEfor any piano in the Eilors Store to any 2)(!rcon -that cab prove' that the cosh checks, are not worth their face value on tho purchase of aNKWPliANO, t , .;
f Can you now say there is "no' value to the Cash awards you have received? These same discounts apply on almost every piano wo represent. One of our regular ty!lf0.00,'$!U)0.00, $275.00 or
$250.00 pianos bears the same discount. Our pianos are always marked in plain figures; We publish' a regular printed price list. We could not raise prices for this sale if avo wanted to, and it
is not necessary, any way, as the manufacturers redeem these cash awards and we get credit for the full anVount of their face value, by returning 1 hem, properly signed up.
How the Advertising Money Gops to the Actyal Buyer
CJThc manufacturers who arc interested in this publicity campaignbelieve that the best advertising they can do is to place their pianos in homes in different purls of the stale, whero (hey will bo
played and heard and seen. They bclikve, that it is much fairer and better Iq take the .money that ordinarily goes for this expensive advertising and give it to a limited number of piano buyers,.
. (Meh one of whom wjjl advertise these pianos iii the different localities. The pianos sopl'uced will interest the friends and neighbors of Hie purchasers and create more piano buyers. Every sat
isfied customer becomes an advertiser for the piano purchased for years and years. That in turn enables tho Eilers Music House to buy many more pianos from the factories;
J The manufacturers Interested in this contest have found this method of advertising most effectivo of all. Tt is a good V 'sirASH proposition. It is good sense. And I he money Ihat usually goes
to subsidize great artists, to buy extravagant newspaper and magazine advertising, and to pay commissions, goes back into your pockets, where it belongs. -
jQ'Thi's explains why the prices of the pianos are exactly the same, no matter whether you apply a credit check or not, whether" you buy for casfi or on time. ,
