A
MISREPRESENTATION

Often wins. This is true because it is
perfectly natural for US to become in
fatuated with whatever is pretty on
the face, or to use the common eX-
preston, Looks good" to us. For
this very reason in matters where we
do not know and have no way of
learning in a day or two we often eb-
lieve lie and turn down the truth.
These are strong terms, but neverthe-
less cold facts.
This truth or these facts are taken
advantage of in the Piano business as
much and perhaps more than in any
other line.
A hint to the wise is sufficient. AS
before stated in "ads,' we have lost
deals on pianos because we told exact
" what we knew to be the truth. Now
we want our customers and competi
tors to understand that we do not
claim nor do we believe, by and means
that we are the only honest piano
dealers in the country. If you don't
know what a piano is, it is a safe act
to buy from dealer that has always
proven truthful in other things and
is doing piano business on the same
legitimate principles.
We want the piano trade of this
town and county, and if absolute hon
actV will oct If we wi have if other
wise we will lose it.
