Low PRICED AND GooD-THR EMERSON
PIASo.-To meet the wants OF the great
number Of persons who desire to possess
a pisno, but do not feel able TO go to the
expense of the costliest make, and yet
would have only good, substantial one,
We have made most careful examina-
tion oil all the lowest priced pianos made
In the United States. The resul! of this
examination is that we have found those
made by W. P. Emerson to be the best
pianos for the price, and the cheapest
good pianos that are made. They are
most substantially built, on the soundest
acoustic principles; the wood Is Of the
best quality, and properly seasoned; the
tone rich and powerful, and the touch
easy and elastic; each one Is provided
with the full iron frame and overstrupp
bass; they stand well In tune, and wear
well In every particular. This we know
from actual experience. The difference
IN price between the Emerson Piano and
the more costly makes Is caused by the
most rigid economy in the manufacture
consistent with excellence, and by a say.
ing oil labor on those parts which neither
effect the tone nor durability.
We have just received a large and
well selected stock oil these "best low
priced Pianos" and offer them at low
prices iOr cash, or on monthly or quar-
terly payments. Call and see them.
