In fact. Tho Sonora is so well known that little com ment on that scorcc is neces sary; but, nevertheless, there may be music-lovers who have yet to hear the Sonora tone, that is so often praised nnd so well liked by the discrimi nating. The picture above shows you one of the most popular of the Sonora models the Baby Grand. This model is $235, nnd you may secure" it on con venient terms, providing for the inclusion of records from the very start, and making the transaction perfectly complete and satisfactory. Of course, you can't tell much about an instrument by look ing at the picture; because a phonograph is not like an ar ticle of furniture. It is essen tially a musical instrument, and your desire to possess it is based chiefly upon your love of music. That is why you should give yourself the opportunity to hear The Sonora, and listen to it attentively. Nobody can choose an instrument for you, nor tell you which is best. That misused word, "best," can only be applied by the one who is purchasing the instru ment, since no two persons can be guaranteed to think alike, when it comes to music. But there are some things with regard to any phono graph sold here that wc, as a Store, investigate carefully. One is the workmanship of the instrument; another is the quality of the materials; an other is the reliability of those who mukc the instrument. The Sonora measures up to the Wnnamakcr standard of ALL that a good phonograph should be. This is true of every Sonora model, therefore the model illustrated, the Baby Grand, is one that wc can recommend without reser vation. We unite you to hear The Sonora without any sense of obligation. It is a good thing for all music-lovers, to become familiar with the standard phonographs and to know what each one can do. Our salons are always ready, like wise our service. (Herond Floor, Irntru!)
