The superiority of the Steinway Piano is
so generally recognized that no barrier of
local pride stands against its leadership as
the greatest of musical instruments.
Everywhere the Steinway Piano is recog
nized as America's one great art product,
challenging the admiration of the aesthetic;
becoming the standard of the craft of
Rianomaking; accepted as the means of
musical cultivation. This great leadership
is founded on the excellence of Steinway
grands in later years further extended
through the .superior qualities of the
smaller grands. Only a master can reduce
size and retain musical qualities but the
Steinways, in Style M Grand (5 ft. 7 in.
length) have triumphed over all difficulties
in uniting beauty of tone, convenience of
size, and minimum price. Style M, in ma
hogany, $1375. N. STETSON & CO

A revelation in
lowered costs!
IT IS, in truth, a revelation to men
who have not bought Clothing
since 1920, to find that prices here
average about ONE-THIRD LESS
THAN LAST YEAR, and that some
of our EXTRA-SPECIALS are about
one-half the 1920 prices! Here, we
believe, are the most attractive as
sortments and the greatest values in
this city.
HERE and here only in this city
you can buy the Stein-Bloch
Smart Clothes, the Hart,
Schaffner & Marx Clothing, the
"Alco" Clothing, and our own new
