throw on the market Saturday morning
1a full carload of assorted, choice, se
lected, high grade, upright pianos, the
. oest assortment that ever came to Sa
lem. ' If these pianos were returned,
the factory would be at a' loss for the
freights both ways, and they would,
even then, still have the pianos to sell.
For this reason they have invoiced them
to me at a specialy large discount from
the regular wholesale price, arid so long
as the manufacturers get ths bare cos
they win be more than satisfied; hence
they are offered for sale now 'at less
than wholesale.
This was a pressed steel car, double
the size. of an ordinary car, and thse
pianos ha'fe completely filled my store.
They comprise all the latest styles and
designs. I will take on this occasion
the actufal wholesale or . factory cost.

I offer Saturday the largest sizf-d.

high grade: piano, with full extension
duet music disk. Boa tori or dickering

is virtually half price. Fancy dark or

and. another piano, not quite so .tall,.
with most elaborately carved panels,
three pedals, the third a soft or practitc
pedal, in mottled mahogiirty, walnut or
