tractive Prizes at Once.
In consideration of a special factory arrangement we and the manufac-
turers from whom we purchase pianos believe the large imounj of
money spent in magazine and newspaper advertising which amounts to
thousands of dollars. If divided among piano purchasers would be
greatly appreciated and would be better for us as well as the pur-
chaser than to spend these vast sums in the various Eastern maga-
lines. We represent the world's greatest piano manufacturers and
every piano sold through this house will be an instrument which we
know will be a future credit to the people who understand and ap-
preciate a GOOD piano. Therefore this generous offer is extended to
the people of Houston for a few days. Prizes will be awarded by the
judges and piano factory representatives.

tically wholesale cost to the purchaser plus transportation charges.
Every piano is fully warranted and everybody who expects to own a
good piano within the next two or three years should investigate at
once. Answers must positively be received by Monday noon February
