WHAT GILES B. MILLER, OF ROCHESTER, THINKS
OF THESE PRODUCTS AN
INTERESTING TALK.
Giles B. Miller, the Lindeman repre-
sentative at Rochester, N. Y., was among
the visitors this week at the Lindeman
factory. He left a good order. Mr. Miller
is a firm believer in the merits of the
Lindeman products, which he has handled
for the past three years in succession to
John W. Martin, who held the agency for
thirty years.
Responding to a question concerning the
present standing, etc., of the Lindeman
pianos, Mr. Miller said, with much earnest-

me, without prompting, of their complete
satisfaction.

that brings customers. It frequently hap-
pens that people come to my store and ask
for the Lindeman. It has been recom-
mended to them by their friends. I am
