BACH & KRANICH FIRST AWARI

In practical life plain facts are of
vastly more Importance than decorated
fancies. The Kranich & Bach celebrated
Upright pianos only were entered by us
for first award, and the impartial judges
after due deliberation gave them the
award as the best Upright pianos exhib-
tied. We did not have any of their ar
tstic Grands on exhibition, nor did we
enter for BEST Display" These two
awards were given to others, and we
state this because the statement made
yesterday morning would be somewhat
misleading, that they took two out Of
three awards. The only competition was
on Upright pianos, and the "Kranich Il
Bach" was victorious, as it usually is.
dessrs. Kranich & Bach make the entire
piano, including action, except the hard
ware, while most others do not. They
have two-thirds more patented improve
ments than any other piano, and we con-
slider this house to be the best set of
piano builders in the world. Very truly,
DARNELL & THOMAS,
Dealers in the Best Pianos.
