ASK QUESTIONS.
First Premium, Connecticut State Fair,
1890, '91, '92 and '93.
When a piano manufacturer
tells
you his pianos are the best, and that
no others are worth considering, ask
questions.
Ask him " Why ? "
As a matter of fact most pianos
are good; the makers would be fool-
ish to do other than their best.
The differences between them are
small, but small things are very
important.
It is by excelling in many little
things that the WESER PIANO is
lifted above the common mediocrity
of pianodom. Maybe it's the greater
elasticity of the hammers, our new
duet desk or our practice pedal—both
patented—which altogether make so
many dealers persist in having the
Weser Piano.

WE ARE NOT SUCH BIG FOOLS.
We do not expect a dealer to sell the Ann Arbor Organ unless he can make
money by so doing.
We do not expect him to think it is good just because we think it is good.

.
We do not expect him to crowd out a good seller and sell nothing but the Ann

Arbor.
BUT WE CLAIM
We make the finest finished organ made in the United States known to us.
Our organs contain many important features which make them sell if the agent
has gumption enough to show them.
Our prices are low if good quality in an organ is worth a cent.
AND WE BELIEVE
That any dealer who fails to familiarize himself with all the market affords and
take advantage of an opportunity to buy the best there is, makes a mistake, and the
dealer who in estimating cost figures only the factory price, makes a mistake. It is
not the instrument that costs the least which pays the biggest profit, but the one

which impresses a customer so favorably that he will pay the price and be satisfied
after he has done so.
On this platform we wish you to consider our claims for the Ann Arbor Organ.
