The Best and Cheapest Organs.

An illustration of the advantages of large
production of any article, enabling the manu-
facturor to avail himse of tho aid of machin-
cry AMI most complete division Of labor, and
SO to produce the best work at lowest cost, is
afforded by what the MASON & HAMLIN OR
GAN co. are now doing. 1t is we'll known
that the Cabinet Organs Of their manufacture
have for some time enjoyed tho reputation of
being the hes. in the world; and the demand
for them from all countries has SO increased
that the Company have now occasion to pro-
duce one hundred and ffty Organs per sceek.
This has enabled them to introduce variety
of ingenious machinery for the production of
the various parts Of the instruments, by which
they get increased perfection in their work,
and make considerable saving in the cost.
1t is part of their system to sell always at
least remunerative profit depending on in
creased amount of business for satisfactory
result to themselves. Accordingly, they have
recently reduced prices, and it is said, are now
selling their famous organs ut even less than
it costs a small maker to produce inferior in
struments. The public are thus the gamers by
getting the best article at less than, without
such advantages, they would have to pay for
inferior work. This Company will not make
the so-called "eheap" organs at any price. All
their work is of the very best. 24-lw

strains which sent the blood tingling through
the veins with pleasure, and thoroughly
demoralized the nearer for any other occu-
patton than simply drinking them in, have
rained down on us from the chorus of
trained voices in Munson's Hall. We have
been quickened into martial ardor by the in
spring strains of chorus from Faust,
and anon soothed into melting tenderness
by ravishing screnade from Don Pasquale.
If any discrepancy is discovered in our pa

by one William Shakespeare, is an item in

! and Consumption.

and Consumption.
Probably never before in the whole history Of
medicine, has anything won widely and so deeply
upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent
remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through long
series of years, and among most of the races Of
men it has risen higher and higher in their estima.
ton, as it has become better known. Its uniform
character and power to cure the various affections
Of the lungs and throat, have made it known as re-
liable protector against them. While adapted to
milder forms of disease and to young children is
ut the same time the most eGectual remedy that can
be given for incipient consumption, and the dan.
gcrOus affections of the throat and lungs As pro-
vision against sudden attacks of Group, it should
be kept On hand in every family, and indeed as all
are sometimes subject to colds and coughs, all
should be provided with this antidote for them.
Although settled Consumption is thought In.
onrable still great numbers of cases where the dis.
oaso seemed settled, have been completely cured,
and the patient restored to sound health by tho
Cherry Pectoral. So complete is its mastery
over the disorders Of the Lungs and Throat. that
ehe most obstinate of them yield to it. When moth.
ing else could reach thcm under the Cherry PEG.
eoral they subside and disappear.
Singers aud Public Speakers find great pro.
action from it.
asthma Is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Cherry PectoraL in small and frequent doses.
SO generally arc its virtues known that we need
not publish the certificates of them here or do more
than assure the public that its qualities are fully
maintained.
