VIM. Knabc " Co.'S Pianos arcso well known
on this continent, and particularly in our state,
that il would be useless TO pHblish all tho tosti-
monas in their favor. They obtained tho
prizes ovor overy competitor wherever expos
cd. and have attained their high. standing by
their intrinsic worth, and the patient persevcr-
ing industry of their makers, without having
had recourse to means employed by many
firms to mako n sensation. Every Piano war
ranted fve years.

tention and an experience Of over IL years IN
tho art of tuning, still continued in the highest
