ner, McConnellsburg,
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 indifferent 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-class instrument. I have
lived m this county since my birth, I am a taxpayer and
in a position to, make good any business tfansactions.
Buy your piano, organ, or victrola from 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. . v
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.
