PUBLIC MARKET
CROWDED TO
/ LIMIT

The Christmas trade started in
with a brisk movement in the pub
lie market this morning, and the
crowds grew and grew until it
was almost impossible for the
stall keepers to handle the trade.
The sidewalk between the stalls
was so crowded during the early
afternoon that walking was diff
cult. Without doubt the business
in the grocery and vegetable line
this year will exceed all records.
The market Is far superior to
what it was at Christmas last
year, and fully twice as many peo-
pie have patronized it.

Selling Out Three Big
Piano Stores In
Washington
Tacoma, Seattle and

956 Pacific Ave.

All three stores of the Worlds
Largest Exclusive Piano Dealers
in the State of Washington, will
be discontinued before January
first. They are anxious to dis
pose of their entire stock this
week as they need few days to
pack up the remaining odds and
eds which are left at the end of
the sale, as every Piano not sold
within few days of December
31st will be shipped to Los An
geles. Boxing and shipping is ex-
pensive, SO they have decided to
cut every Piano to the lowest pos
sible notch. Terms can be arrang-
ed of two to three years on al
most any piano in their great
stock. A complete stock of over
1900 Pianos in the three stores
were put on sale a few days ago.
This number has been reduced to
almost one-half and the remaining
part of the week they expect to
close out the other half at the
rate they are being sold, for prices
were never equalled and terms
never before heard of. New $3.50
pianos now marked at $3.50; $425
pianos. 5000; all others equally
low. Player Pianos are now being
sold for less than the same in
strument would sell for in the
regular way without the interior
player. Grand Pianos are being
sold for less than the ordinary
upright. Their great reduction Of
| fered means that you save more
than you would pay in one to two
years. Any person can pay for a
Piano now, one to two years SOON

buying at the regular price.
