THE MOST IMPORTANT question of the day is why Newton, "The Piano Man" can sell a better piano for less money than anyone else in Western Pennsylvania. He represents the wealthiest manu facturers of Pianos. You pay direct to them for all the Pianos. The expense of sidling them is $75 le3s than the ordinary retail man and you save his profit, which means to 3*oll .$175 saved. Prices from $250 to $1,500—10 per cent off for cash. All pianos fully warrant ed. My customers are my reference. Ask them. Call and see me and let me explain onr easy payment plan. Yostr credit is good, NEWTON "THE PIANO MAN" 317 S.
