Make Clothes Hangers In Screens

If you have a screen in your
room there is not the slightest
reason why you shouldn't have
all the space you want to hang
light summer dresses where they
can get all the air needed and
retain their freshness and dain-
tiness while drying out after iron
ing, no matter how limited your
closet space. Most screens have
bit of grill work at the top
in a space an inch or two wide
between the screen proper and
the top rail. If the housekeep-
er will secure a number of pieces
of wood, square or round, about
eight inches long. by piercing
them in the center and fastening
them inside the space where the
grill work is usually found, they
will revolve and form pegs on
which to hang her dresses or
whatever else she wishes to
get out of the way.
Old chair rounds cut In two
pieces are excellent for this pur-
pose. When set in between the
screen and the top rail short
bolts can be used, and when not

explain every detail in the con-
struction of a piano from the
center pin of the action out to the
veneering of the case. That's
what we are here for. The mu-
stefan cannot do this. The music
teacher cannot do 1t. But we can
make the matter of selection of
a piano SO easy for you that
whether you buy here or at some
other store you can make an in
telligent purchase.
Another Thing Worth Consider
ing.
The Silvers Piano Co. Is a Ia
coma store. The proprietor will
be found in the store at any
time you wish to see him. We
live here. We are taxpayers and
property owners here. We are
interested in the welfare of this
city. We are on hand to hear
complaints IL any you have to
make, and to remedy any faults
you may find with the piano. The
home office is not outside the
city and state in which you live.
Therefore, is 1t not reasonable
that our advice is likely to be
most dependable?
Economy the Watchword
This is not an extensively run
store. We hire no manager to
operate 1t. We do our own sell
ing, tuning, and pay the lowest
rent on G street. Ten times less
than is paid by some other stores.
In other words, the rent item of
expense with us is just one-tenth
as much when added to the sell
ing cost of your piano as il
would be were we located in a 10
times more costly store room. In
fact, there are no items of ex-
pense in connection with this bus
mess which are not far below the
usual cost of running piano
store. This. in word, is why
the Silvers Piano Co. can really
do as we claim in our slogan, viz:
Sell you "A Better Piano for the
Money"
Hallet & Davis, Kaufman, r.

bert, and many other old time

LET US HELP YOU
SELECT A PIANO
We Know a Lot About Pianos That's Our Business
You Cannot Afford to Disregard Our Advice
in Buying An Instrument.

The purchase of a piano is q
good deal like buying an auto
mobile, in that the buyer ordin-
arily knows very little about the
thing he is buying. He can learn
more about an automobile in a
few days or weeks than he can
about a piano. An automobile
Is a purely mechanical thing,
while piano is artistic. There
fore, the piano purchaser needs
advice.
Whose Advice Is Best?
This is the problem which,
when once solved, makes the mat
ter of buying plano an easy
task. Now to begin with, there
are but three points to consider
as regards the piano itself, viz:
The tone, appearance and dura-
bility.
TONE
No person should allow an
other to choose the tone for him.
Why? Do you ask. That's sim
pie. Just because every person
has his own taste as to tone,
just as every woman has her own
choice of perfume, or the shade
of color she wishes in a dress
pattern. There are many differ
ent toned pianos equally beau
tiful. but what pleases one man
or woman will not please another
Don't then, make the mistake ot
permitting some ona else to tell
you what tone suits your ear
best, as YOU must listen to the
tone of that piano for years
hence. Get the family together,
and between you decide on the
tone which best pleases you, for
certain it is that your own fam
fly are the parties in interest.
APPEARANCE
1t goes without saying that
what applies to the tone must al
SO apply to the style or design Of
the piano. Suit yourself. The
sense of seeing, and the sense of
hearing should be gratified ac-
cording to your own good taste.
That's all there is to it.
DURABILITY
Now you have come to the real
issue, the only one of amy consid-
cradle import in the selection of
the piano, SO far as the abstract
instrument itself is concerned.
WE CAN TELL YOU MORE
ABOUT THAT THAN ANY ONE
ELSE. This is not a boast, it is
but a truth, based upon a logical
line of reasoning. We have made
the piano business a study, know
II from start to finish. We have
competent, practical piano tuners
