VALUABLE IMPROVEMENT.
From this date, October, 1885, we shall in.
troduce in several styles of our Cabinet Organs
a new and very beautiful invention combining
several recent patents. 1t will be known as
THE MASON & HAMLIN IMPROVED
VOX HUMANE OR FAN TREMOLO,
And excels every other attachment of this gene
era class in the beauty of its effects, the per-
feet ease with which it is operated, It's dura-
bility and freedom from liability to get out of
order.
l. In connection with the Automatic Swell,
Exclusively used in the M. & 81. Cabinet Or
gans,) it produces the nearest approach to the
peculiarly sympathetic, rich and attractive quail
ity of fine human voice yet attained in any
reed instrument.
2. 1t is operated by the ordinary action OF the
bellows of the instrument, and requires no sep
arate pedal, being played by the same motion,
and as easily as an instrument without it.
g. 1t has no clockwork or machinery, and is
entirely free from liability to get out of order,
and as durable as the instrument itself.

and illustrations free. Address the MASON i
