Mrs Haebe was peeling potatoes in the

she complained of dizziness to her daugh-

A RARE CHANCE
To secure Upright Pianos Mt Less
Than n Third Value.
LOW PRICES EASY TERMS.
Many People Taking Advantage of n
Very Unusual Opportunity to
Save Money.

Buying Upright Pianos at about a third
of their real value is not an opportunity
that is presented every day. and is a
chance that few Piano dealers can offer.
The manager of the Bradbury Piano
Warerooms says it is the first time in
the twenty years business career of this
firm that they have ever offered the pub
lie such unusual bargains in Pianos of
reputable makes. AS the loss in this
case falls upon the dealer who was forced
to close out these Pianos to avoid a fail
ure and the Bradbury Company are not
losing a dollar on this transaction, they
can afford TO give their patrons the full
benefit of the saving. Trumped-up sales of
Pianos at ridiCulOusly reduced prices are
often indulged in by INSCRIPTIONS dealers
These sales have no foundation whatever
no good reason for the sO-calied reduc-
tions are Civ n-and, as matter of fact.
no Piano dealer an afford to sell Pianos
for less than their real valueS-when the
amount of the reduction is to come out
of his own pocket. for good Pianos are
sold on very close margin and cannot
be sold cheap There are only a limited
number Of the Upright Pianos in this
stock which we have purchased. If bought
in the regular way we could not afford to
sell them for dollar less than the regu-
lar prices. but they were secured at
figure that does not represent a third of
the actual value OF the instrument and we
propose to give our customers the full
benefit of the sale as long as the stock
lasts
These Pianos are actually worth from
$3.50 70 $3.50 and they will compare favora-
bly, with Instruments in our regular stock
now held at those prices. They are being
sold at Sli5. Sl65.50. SIZE $50, and Si9S.
These who called yesterday had full op-
portunity to test the Instruments and
compare them with Pianos offered else
where at twice and three times the prices.
and in almost every instance the custo-
mer made a purchase, either paying cash
or a sufficient deIOsit t3 secure the Piano.
We extend the same liberal terms of pay
ment on these instruments as we would
on our regular stock. accepting INSTALL
ments of five or six dollars monthly if de-
sired.
There are also some very good Square
Pianos secured from the same dealer.
which will be sold as low as S25 and $50,
or 81 weekly payments. With 1ch
Eiano is included a handsome cover or
scarf and new style hardwood stool The
instruments viii be delivered anywhere in
the District free of charge. and arrange
ments can he made at the Bradbury

have them packed for shipment to any
point in the country.
