A LIVING
ILLUSTRATION OF WELL EARNED
PROSPERITY AND PROGRESS.
The increased demand for high-grade
pianos has necessarily brought about a
greater call for high-grade actions. Promi-
nent among the action-makers who are
benefiting by this condition of affairs, are
Wessell, Nickel & Gross. They report
business good and growing. Considering
their methods this is not a matter for sur-
prise.
Taught by an experience that has natu-
rally fallen to them in the varied exper-
iments of the past twenty years and more,
they have as occasion demanded discarded
old methods and substituted new ones.
These are the fruits of well-directed energy.
There has been an incessant striving on
their part to keep in advance of the times,
to anticipate every new demand, and to be
found foremost in the line of progressive
development. This has been the active
principle under which the business of the
firm has been advanced until it stands, to-
day, a living illustration of well-earned
prosperity and progress.
