THOUSAND NOW In USE


\ 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 ana Germans have manufac-
tured reed Instruments with double bellows, and
two pedals Tor the feet operate but the want of
the reversed or Exhaustion Bellows, (wh ch is the
only bellows used IN instruments, made 1t i'm
possible tor them to produce the mellow, rich and
musical tone tor which instruments are cele-
brated.
Another objection this method of blowing
was, that both feet being occupied, OpPorIunl-
~ was offered Tor the Management of the swell
within the past two years, instruments construct
ed on this European plan ct 90 double blowers
have been manufactured IN this country, and to
counteract tins difficulty (want of a sweii) 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
saTN to effect this object, dIsagreeable enough
TO gentleman, but To lady the use OF such an
apPendage is nearly impossible.
Our AutmatIc device obyIates this difficulty en-
tIrely, the simple act OF blowing with more less
force giving the desired increase or decrease IN
the volume OF tone. For seventeen years the
superior excellence of our Mcleod cons has not
been questioned, and Tor two years past the enor-
nous demand has made II impossible tor 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.
