The MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN AND PIANO

for the season OF 1SS4-5. 1t forms hand
some 4to pamphlet OF forty-six pages, and
contains illustrations accurately showing the
appearance of all the styles OF organs regu-
Iarly made by them, with detailed descrip-
tions Of the capacity Of each: together with
quite full mention Of the general modes Of
construction employed and the great favor
over the world with accounts of their
triumphs at all the great comparisons OF
such instruments at Worlds Industrial Ex-
hibitions for many years; with pictures or
medals, decorations and diplomas Of honor
obtained
In looking over such catalogue one IL for
chilly reminded of the magnitude which the
business of reed instruments has attained.
Twenty five years since only q few were
made under the name ssmelodeons,n which
had not and did not deserve much favor with
musicians, enjoying very limited sale, at
prices varying from so to $125. Now 80,
600 organs are made yearly in the United
States. which are sold IN all civilized coun-
tries at prices from $22 to 81 600 or more
This at least may be said to any purchaser
Of Mason & Hamlin organ; he will unques-
tionably get the very best instrument of its
class which can be made. Thirty years ex-
perience Is a guarantee of what this company
can and viii do. They cannot afford to send
out poor organs
The present catalogue shows an increased
and very complete assortment, both as to
cases and capacities. 1t will be sent free, to
any one desiring to see it. on application to
