MEiIODEANS.
THOUSAND NOW In USE


| n 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 ana Germans have manufac-
tured reed instruments with double bel ows. and
two pedals tor the feet tn operate, but the of
the reversed or Exhaustion Bellows, (wh ch is the
only bellows used IA Instruments } made II i'm
possible tor them tn produce the mellow, rich and
musical tone tor which instruments are cele-
brated.
Another objection 10 this method of blowing
was, that both feet being occupied, opporiuni-
~ was offered for the management of the swell.
Within the past two Years, INSTRUMENTS construct
ed on this European plan ct 80 double blowers,o
have been manufactured in this country, and to
counteract this difficulty (want of asweil) lever
has been projected from the centre of the instru
ment, 10 act upon the swell, and operated BY the
knee. The Inconvenience and contorlion necss
sary TO effect this object, dIsagreeabe enough
TO gentleman, but 10 lady the of such an
appendage IS nearly possible.
Our AutmatIc device otyiates this dificnlty en-
tIrey. The simple act OF blowing with more less
force giving tbs desired increase decrease in
the volume OF tone. For seventeen years the
superior excellence of Melodeons has not
been questioned, and tor two years past the enor-
nous demand has made it impossible for US to
meet our orders promptly. With increased
facilities. We feel warranted in assuring our pat
rons that their orders Will be promptly met, and
solicit continuance OF their patronage.
