MELODEANS.
THIRTY-FIyE THOUSAND NOW IN USE
Every Instrument w arranted for FiveYears

N presenting the AUTOMATIC ORGAN, we
i 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 double bellows, and
two pedals for the feet operate but the want of
the reversed or Exhaustion Bellows, Twin h is the
only bellows used In instruments, made 1t i'm
possible for them to produce the mellow, rich and
musical tone tor which our instruments are cele-
brated.
Another objection to this method of blowing
was, that both feet being occupied, opportuni-
~ was offered Cor the management of the swell
Within the past two years, instruments construct
ed on this European plan Of &c double blowers
have been manufactured in this country, and to
counteract this difficulty (want of swelD lever
has been projected from the centre of the instru
ment, to act upon the swell, and operated by the
knee. The Inconvenience and contortion neces
sary to effect this object, dlsagreeable enough
to gentleman, but 10 a lady the use OF such an
appendage is nearly impossible.
Our Autmatic device obvates this difficulty en-
tirely, the simple act OF blowing with less
force giving the desired increase or decrease in
the volume OF tone. For seventeen years the
superior excellence of our Melodeons has no,
been questioned, and tor two years past the enor.
nous demand has made IT impossible for US To
meet our orders promptly. With our increased
facilities, we feel warranted in assuring our pat
rons that their orders will be promptly met, and
solicit a continuance of their patronage.
