An Expert Manager.

Mr.. J. G.. Corley, the we'll known and
popular manager of the Gable Piano
Company, has made a reputation in his
know him best. A few years ago the
business attracted no particular atten-
stion. He kepta music store and sold
pianos which were all that he repre-
sented them to be, but no one took any
special note of the easy-going, graceful.
polite, suave speaking seller of the in
strument that has won favor all around
the world,
Mr.. Corley first secured the agency
for pianos that lived up to their reputa-
tions and were all that their Inanufac-
turers claimed for them. He saw to it
that every fault was remedied and
quoted terms that the poorest could not
fail to appreciate, and was indulgent to
the point of recklessness with those who
had been overtaken by misfortune and
who found even the monthly agreement
a task somewhat difficult.
He won, and those who purchased of
him told others until today he is the
presiding genius of one of the most pail
atial music houses in all the South land,
and the firm he represents has absolute
confidence in him. To walk along
Broad street is to know where to find
the Gable Company's. 1t is indeed a
"a thing of beauty"
With it all Mr.. Corley is the main
spring Of action, and he has surrounded
himself with a corp of assistants who
are as energetic in promoting the sue
ceess Of this great enterprise as is he
