1t is doubtless true that at no time since
the introduction Of music into the family
as necessary branch of education, has the
fact been SO painfully realized that good
instrument was so essential as at the pres
ent time, and never was it apparently so
difficult task to know and be able to de.
eide which of the many desirable instru-
ments to choose as possessing the most
merit 10 tone and durability, for cores
pondingly reasonable price, but we pre-
sumo that the safest, and perhaps the most
desirable plan tor one contemplating pur-
chase to pursue is, to first settle upon an
instrument having good reputation and
then to know that the party representing
such instruments are wholly responsible
and men of integrity. 1t is. perhaps need
less to state that the Messrs. Cluett
& Sons, of Troy, New York,
have been prominently engaged
in the music business for nearly quarter
of a century, and it Is asserted by compe-
tent Judges that the instruments they now
represent have been chosen after careful
examination and long experience from all
the leading makers now before the country,
and that it would hardly be possible to go
astray in selecting from the most celebrated
pianos of the world. The Steinway and
Chickering pianos need no commentator
at our hands, IS upwards of $4,000 have
been made and sold, and will continue for
years to come to reap golden opinions from
all parts of the globe. The Guild, Church
81 Co., the Haines Bros. and the Groven-
stein pianos and the celebrated Burdett
organs all have an extended reputation,
and choice can be made from these at
most any price to suit the purchaser. Mr..
Edward Tracy, special representative for
Vermont, at the Bardwell house, will be
pleased to be consulted in regard to either
of the many instruments they represent, or
can be thus addressed until further notice.
