week.
To persons who have been wanting a
strictly fret class instrument and have
not been willing, or felt able, to pay the
prices asked by small dealers and agents,
1 have statement of extraordinary in
terest to make. Tomorrow morning at
the old Chronicle building, opposite
French & Co.'S bank an opportunity will
be afforded you snch as you have never
seen and will likely never see again in
The Dalles, to get piano at such low
price and on such easy terms.
How is this2 you ask.
Let me tell you.
We are shipping two carloads of
pianos and organs to this city, as many
instruments as any music house would
sell in one year in the usual way. The
rent of good store, water, light, heat,
incidental expenses and the salary of a
competent salesman, and the business
can not be run for less than $500 per
month.
At the end of the year it would have
cost $1,000 to sell these instruments.
Now notice: We ship them here di-
rect from our factory in full carload lots
at about half the usual freight. We de-
duct that $4,000 from the net cash price
of these instruments, and give it to you
to come and get them quick, stop ex-
penses and let as go. We win be just as
well off as if we stayed here one year
and sold them for $1,000 more, and will
save all that valuable time. You will
be $1,000 better of, for you wilt gain that
amount IN cash. It is n straight pro-
position and any business man can see
the point. It can be done in no other
way. The dealer who sells only two or
three pianos a month must put that
$500 on his prices. This magnificent
stock of new pianos and organs is from
the great factories of which w. w. Kim
ball Co., of Chicago. which factories
consists of five 5-story buildings with =
floor space of over IL acres, and have a
capacity of 80 pianos and go organs per
day. This stock is incomparably the
finest, most elegant and beautiful that
ever came to this city. and offers an op-
portunity of fine selection at your very
door.
The Kimball piano has worldwide
reputation. It is used and indorsed by
such musicians of national and interna-
tional reputation as Adeline Patti, Lii
lian Nordica, Minnie Hauk, Sig. Arditi,
Julius Parotti and many others too
numerous to mention, also by all the
orchestral leaders, viz, Gilmore, Sousa,
Ruscbeweyh, Herold and Liesegang.
AT the Worlds Fair the Kimball piano
and organ took everything in the way of
high honors and diplomas that was
worth having, as the official records of
awards show.
The guarantee Of the Kimball Co.,
which represents millions, and whose
capital is only exceeded by few of the
largest banks in the United States, goes
with every instrument sold, and is as
good as government bond The banks
of the country are our references.
This shipment comprises great va
riety of styles, sizes and prices of pianos
in Mahogany, oak, walnut and rosewood
cases, with handsomely engraved pam
nels and carved tusses. Organs in
satin walnut, oak and black walnut cases
with French plate mirrors, double oc-
tave couplersi fortes and knee swells, all
have two or more full sets of reeds.
If the people of The Dalles could real
ize what phenomenal bargains they are
offered they would be in line at 9 o'clock
tomorrow morning, at the old Chronicle
building, to get one of these elegent in
struments.
Out of 1000 people in this beautiful
city, I should have at least 100 custo-
mers for these two carloads OF instru-
ments. Come promptly for they will go
quickly at the prices and terms l sam
offering. l can't stay long to sell in
struments at these prices and on these
terms old pianos and organs will be ac-
cepted at their market value in part
payment for new pianos.
I also desire to say word to the
music profession.
While it is customary with some re-
tail dealers to pay commissions to
teachers and musicians to recommend
this or that piano to their pupils or
friends, regret to say that on these
pianos and organs. retaiied at manufact-
urers wholesale prices with cost of laying
them down here added, It is absolutely
