True EcoNoMy.-The country is at
present flooded with cheap and inferior
goods Of every description, which are
heralded to the public in flaming adver-
tisemcnts and which find market
among those who have yet to learn that
true economy consists in buying a
first class article from an establishment
and first class house. For example,
pianos of various makers are offered at
about one-half the price ,of those Of
really first class manufacture. Anon g
! the latter none are more, deserving Of
the encomiuin ''really first class than
those manufactured. by Messrs- 4Nm'
Knabe 6 Co., off Baltimore, firm
which dates over a third of century,
and whose Planes for exeellency Of
workmanship, durability and sweetness
of tone, stand absolutel y unriyalled and
containing many valuable patent inn
provements, to be found in no other in-
strument, made by the very best work
men and of strictly first class and
seasoned material s~ 81
The so-called "eheap' piano may
present a fair external appearance, but
is made of inferior and often entirely
unseasoned material, and soon becomes
a wreck which deiies the art of the
tuner. We make special mention of
tue piana, as the most forcible illustra-
tions Of our remarks, which can be APP
Piled to almost every article we use i'll
our families. 4
