THIRTY-FIvE THOUSAND VOW In ISL
Every Instrument w arranted for FiveYears

I n presenting the AUTOMATIC ORGAN, we
cal instruments of the age. During the past half
century. the French and Germans have manefac-
tured reed instruments with double bellows, and
two pedals for the feet 10 operate but the want OF
the reversed or Exhaustion Bellows, (Which is the
only bellows used INSTRUMENTS made il i'm
possible tor them to produce the mellow, rich and
musical tone for which instruments are eele-
brated. E .. ..-
Another objection To this method of blowing
was, that both feet being occupied, no opportuni-
~ wac offered for the management of the swell.
Within the past two years, INSTRUMENTS construct
ed on this European plan CT sc double blowers"
have been Manufactured IN tins country, and TO
counteract this difficulty want Of a swei) lever
has been projected from the centre of the instru
ment, to act upon the swell. and operated by the
knee. The inconvenience and coptortion necss
sary TO effect this object are disagree able enough
to gentleman, butto a lady the use of such an
appendage 10 nearly impossible -...- .r-.L r.
Our Auimatic device obviates this difficulty en-
nrely, the simple act OF blowing with more less
force giving tbs desired increase or decrease in
the volume of tone. For seventeen yea 70 the
superior excellence OF our Melodeons has not
been questioned, and Tor two years past the enor-
nous demand has made IL impossible for us to
meet our orders promptly. With our increased
facilities, we feel warranted IN assuring our pat
rons that their orders wsll be promptly met, and
solicit q continuance of their patronage. q
