T is always gratifying to record the successful result
of patient endeavor and indomitable perseverance.
Therefore we announce, with genuine pleasure, the
rapid progress made in their new quarters (461, 463. 465
and 467 West Fortieth street and Tenth avenue, N. Y.,) by
Paul G. Mehlin & Sons, whose names will very soon be
known and honored wherever good and carefully con-
structed pianos are appreciated. Mr. Mehlin, Sr., is a
born inventor, and to his originality and study the peo-
ple of America are indebted for many valuable improve-
ment: in the piano-forte.
The pianos which Messrs. Mehlin & Sons have now
completed are built upon entirely new principles. Their
scales are new, and originated with them. The new fea-
tures introduced into these instruments necessitated
slow and cautious movement in the application. After
having employed every possible test, however, the firm
feel that they are in a position to guarantee absolute
perfection in their pianos. Further, as the factory is
equipped with every appliance and convenience neces-
sary to quick and perfect manufacture, we have no hesi-
tation whatever in deliberately stating that the pianos
to be turned out by Paul Mehlin & Sons will prove, in
every particular, the full justice of the claim made in re-
spect of them, which is, in brief, that they will be strict-
ly first-class goods.
Those pianos that have been already constructed on
the new principles alluded to were so excellent that they
were at once carried off by enthusiastic and delighted
purchasers.

Michigan, $9,798.20. The firm have sold out their stock,
rented goods and everything in the way of merchandise
to S. B. Hopkins.
The disaster has been a terrible one for Messrs. Frees
