It is admitted by all that no piano ever put upon the
market has met with such success as THE STERLING,
and thou ands will testify to their superiority of work-
manship and durability. Why ? Because they are made
just as perfect as a piano can be made.
THE STERLING ORGAN has always taken the lead, and
the improvements made this year puts it far ahead of
all others. |&5F*Send for Catalogue.
