Our Leading Ones
and Why

we nave as our Leaders the Cele-
brated Chickering piano of Boston;
the beautiful Weber of New York, and
the now famous and superb Kimball
of Chicago.
There must be good reason why
we selected these pianos.
II the selection had been limited to
these three instruments, there would
not have been much virtue in our
choice.
There would have been nothing
else TO do.
But we chose these three out of
nearly two hundred makes manufac-
tured in the United States.
We chose these three pianos be-
cause we considered them the highest
grade pianos it is possible to pro-
duce.
Our choice is reinforced and made
of value to you when you know there
was back of ii fifteen years expert
ence in the manufacturing, wholesale
and retail piano business and an ac-
curate knowledge of every piano on
the market today.
1t is made of much greater value to
you when you know that we have had
the choice OF practically all the high
grade pianos manufactured.
The Chickering piano is made by
the oldest established piano factory in
the United States. 1t has maintained
the highest possible standard for SO
years. a fact that entities 1t to the
serious consideration of every person
who thinks of purchasing a piano.
Whatever age and experience devel-
ops, combined with integrity and
abundant capital is embodied in the
Chickering OF today. The greater tri-
umph in piano manufacturing today
are Chickering quarter and the
smaller grand pianos made w this
concern.
The Weber is an instrument that its
manufacturers have endeavored to
make superlative from the standard
of tone, It is the embodiment of a
musicians ideal Of tehe. and it is
"from the
rightly claimed for it that
standpoint of that pure, rich, sympa-
thetic quality of tone, combined Win
the most unyielding durability
stands alone"
The Kimball pianos, while not so
,,s os either of the above makes, has
taken the highest rank. signiticaht
fact in this connection is the sales Oh
the Kimball.
If Is asserted by those who are In a
position to know, that the kimball Is
going into more homes than all other
high grades combined. The output or
the factory exceeds $4,000 yearly. The
Kimball received highest honors at
the Worlds Columbian exposition ana
more recently at the Omaha exposi-
ton. We feel that it is not oVerstat-
ing the matter to say that the kimoall
is as perfect an instrument as human
agencies can construct.
These are some of the reasons
briefly, why we selected these three
great pianos for our leaders.
We have in addition to these su-
perb instruments nearly thirty other
makes of pianos, including the old
New York aristocrat, the Hazelton'
the lovely Lester, the substantial Ho-
bart NJ. Gable, the wonderful, many
toned Crown Orchestral, Schum nm.
Schiller, etc, etc.
We believe that it is possible for
us to suit every taste, desire, whim
or caprice that enters into the selec-
ton of a piano, whether it is from the
standpoint of quality of the instru-
ment, price or terms.
