WILSON d BAUMER.
A Few Remarks Concerning q Rising
Young Music House.

A saying long since passed into prov,
erb is that nothing succeeds like success,
and enterprise, industry and close appli'
cation to business is sure to meet its re-
wsrd-success. Some three years ago, or
more, the firm of Wilson & Banner launch
ed their bark upon the turbulent stream
of business, and from that day TO his their
career has been onward and upward;
and though the music business has passed
through many ups and downs. through
sunshine and shadow, this firm has steadily
held its course; avoiding the reefs and
breakers upon which many as promising
vuyagers have been wrecked, and.to day we
have the satisfaction of seeing in our
midst a firm and house riding safely
in the harbor of success, brought about by
heir untiring determination 10 so cater to
tie pu bic taste as to have reached the
highest round of the ladder Of prosperity
and public esteem. From the occupancy
OF a single room on the ground floor, which
afforded them ample room in the oil start,
they now have the most extensive rooms
ever devoted to their line of business in
this city. Their establishment now EN-
braces three stories So by 22 feet. The
first is devoted exclusively to organs and
musical goods such as small instruments,
music, music books &C. The second story
is set apart for pianos only, and will be
fitted up as a music loom, where persons
wishing TO examine instruments will lind
an elegantly furnished apartment which II
will be a pleasure to visit; and the third
floor is the workshop and repair room.
The next thing to be considered, aud the
one most important, is, what are the in
ducements held out to the public that they
should eschew all others, seeking tlis par
ticular house wherein TO make their pur-
chases? This question can be answered
only in the quality of their goods, and the
terms upon which they will agree to dis
pose OF them. The kranich Il Bach pianos,
Of which Wilson X Baumer make spec
ialty. have taken high position in the
ranks Of world-renowned instruments, and
are conceded to have points ct excellence
which surpass those of all other manufac-
turerS. The large number sold by this
firm to prominent citizens and leading mu-
sicians, gives ample testimony TO their Su'
perior excellence as to tone, finish, durabil-
ity. general workmanship and artistic con.
sfruction. This firm also,handle the Guild
and Wheelcck pianos, together with fine
variety of Smith American organs, which
Justly claim prominence as one OF the best
organs manufactured in this or any other
country. The Chase organs, of which they
also keep large supply, are second to
none for sweetness OF tone and cases OF
beautiful design. Their stock of snail in
struments is also complete and their sheet
music the choicest and finest selection ever
offered in the city. Their line of standard
music is full, and they cannot be taken at
a disadvantage when called upon for any.
thing desired at the shortest notice. As to
terms, their facilities are such that they
cannot be outdone by any of their compe-
titOrS.
An examination through their immense
establishment will prove that they have
the largest and best equipped music house
ever kept in Wheeling, and that their
goods, terms and prices will suit the most
fastidiOue and economical buyer.
