Cable, Kohler & Campbell and the celebrated self-playing Auto-piano offered at prices never before quoted in this city. Commencing Wednesday, June 10, we inaugurate our annual sale of Pianos in Hood River at the Bartmess Furniture Store. Owing to the proximity of Hood River to Portland, our headquarters, we have not deemed it wise to establish a branch store here. We prefer to annually hold a big ten days sale and give the people of this city and vicinity the bene fit of the cost of operating a piano house here. Including rent, drayage, and freight bills, salary of local manager, etc., the cost of operating a store m a city of this size amounts to not less than $3,000 yearly. You, Mrs. Piano Purchaser, will get the benefit of this tremendous saving during this big sale. For $187 we will sell you a piano for which the small dealer asks $300; for $248 we are offering a high grade instrument that retails regularly for $375. Do you wish to save $60, $100 or perhaps $135 on a piano and at the same time get it from a reliable house? lar $300 Piano goes for $1 87 r-v ri-p- rt 04E Keguiar jmjd riano goes lor i w Reguh PRICES THAT TALK r i - t r ri en ao i Regular $400 Piano goes for $290 Regular $450 Piano goes for $31 8 Regular $500 Piano goes for Regular $550 Piano goes for $368 $418 To those not wishing to pay cash we will arrange terms of payment $8 to $10 monthly or you may settle in one, two or three years' time if you choose.
