Yeu Have Roem for a
Almest every one who owns any ether kind of piano has
somewhere in the back of his or her mind the ambition te some
day own a grand piano. Why net bring that ambition forward,
and satisfy it.
Until recently the possession of a grand piano meant that
there must be some room in the house of noble proportions, and
there was a wide dift'erence in price between grands and uprights.
But these beautiful little grand pianos they are building tedar
.take up no mere room than an upright piano. They are designed
especially for people living in apartments, or small houses.
In spite of their size these small grand pianos have all the
power and volume required for any instrument used outside a
concert hall.

have two pair of trousers. With only one pair
these would be geed suits. With two they are
