T
HE fall season or 1895 has opened up
most auspiciously for the Waterloo
Organ Co. They report a remarkably fine
business in all departments. The reputa-
tion of their wares is now well established,
and dealers realize what it is to have such
instruments as the Malcolm Love pianos
and Waterloo organs in stock. They are
trade and money makers —that is what
every one says, and what every one says
must be true. Any of our readers who
have not investigated the merits of these
instruments should not hesitate to look
them up. A personal visit or a letter to
Waterloo, N. Y., will set the ball rolling.

portant.
It is by excelling in many little tilings
that the WESER PIANO is lifted above
the common mediocrity of pianodom.
Maybe it's the greater elasticity of the
hammers, our new duett desk or our
praetice pedal—both patented—which
altogether make so many dealers persist
in having the Weser Piano.
