D.T Principal, feniutiun-, im Nothing adds more to the refinements of home than good music. To have good music you must have a good instrument. There are good bad and indilTerent instru ments, and to the unskilled eye they .look much alike. The unprincipled dealer is likely to make you pay a first-class price for a fourth-classjnstrument. I have lived in this county since my birth, I am a taxpayer and in a position to make good any business transactions. Buy your piano, organ, or victrola irom me and if it is not all right you can come back at me. There are families in every part of this county that have purchased instruments from me. Ask them about me. Perhaps you want to trade your organ for a Piano, or Player Piano; or your Plain Piano, for a Player. See me. Let's talk it over. L. W. FUNK.
