THIRTY-FIvE THOUSAND NOW IN USE
Every Instrument w arranted for FIveYear.

presenting the AUTOMATIC ORGAN, we
l. boldly announce the greatest triumph in must
cal instruments OF the age. During the past half
century, the French and Germans have manufac.
tured reed Instruments with dou BILE bellows. and
two pedals for the feet to operate but the want Of
the reversed or Exhaustion Bellows, (whch is the
only bellows used in instruments, made it i'm
possible ior them to produce the mellow, rich and
musical tone Tor which our instruments are cee-
brated.
Another objection to this method of blowing
was, that both feet being occupied, nc opportuni-
~ was offered for the Management of the swell.
Within the past two ears, instruments construct
ed on this European plan Of 80 double bIowers, ,,
nave been manufactured IN this country, and to
counteract this difficulty (want of sweiIl a lever
mas been projected from the centre of the instru
ment, to act upon the swell, and operated by the
knee. Inc inconvenience and contortion neces
sary 10 effect this object, disagreeable enough
TO gentleman, but 10 a lady the use OF such an
aPPendage IL nearly impossible.
Our Autmatic device obviates this diligently en-
tirey, the simple act OF blowing with more or less
Ioree giving the desired increase or decrease in
the volume OF tone. For seventeen Year, the
superior excellence of our MeIodeons has not
been questioned, and for two years past the enor-
nous demand has made 1t impossible for us to
meet our orders promptly. With our increased
faciities, we feel warranted in assuring our nat
rons that their orders will be promptly met, and
solicit continuance of their patronage u
