THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW.
A T headquarters in Baltimore, William
Knabe & Co. report an excellent business—
times considered. For the past ten clays
they have experienced a marked improve-
ment, and are particularly gratified with the
orders from the vSouth, where William
Knabe, of the firm, is visiting 1 the trade.
A xuMHKK of music publishers and dealers
in Philadelphia have entered into an agree-
ment for the purpose of putting a stop to
certain privileges in the shape of special
discounts, which have been extended to
music teachers and pupils, and which have
been abused.
TIIK Bush & Gerts Piano Co., Chicago,
will in future act as Western wholesale rep-
resentatives for the Weaver organs.
J. H. THOMAS, Hamilton
J. H. STIFF is now connected with the
Freyer & Bradley Music Co., Atlanta, Ga.
He was formerly manager of the Miles &
Stiff Co.
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 foolish to do
other than their best.
The differences between them are
small, but small things are very im-
portant.
/ / 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 nciu duett desk or our
practice pedal—both
patented—which
altogether make so many dealers persist
in having the Wcser Piano.
Talk to us about it.
Ask us questions.
FRANCIS J. BIRD is no longer connected
with the Emerson Piano Co.'s New York
warerooms.

.
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 bf»st 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 platfo m we wish you to consider our claims for the Ann Arbor Organ.
WESER BROS.,

next week.

This instrument is used by "Royalty," viz.: the "public." Can be used in a "White House,"but will stand as well in ahouse
of any shade. Poetical in tone and matchless in general workmanship. Preferred by the "Queen"—of musical taste—on account of
its tone-sustaining" power. It has an opera tone found only in the "Opera" piano. A piano for the musician, for the home, the con-
cert hall, the theatre, the church, schoolhouse, and last but not least the dealer welcomes it in his salesroom; it is one of his best sellers.
