prehensive sale of strictly high-class musi-
cal instruments ever held in Michigan."

John A. Heiuzmann, brother of Otto M.
Heinzmann, is now connected with the Kra-

The name of Mathushek has been before the
public for half a century and is identified with
the manufacture of instruments of high grade.
It pays to handle a well-known name. The
demand for the Mathushek & Son piano is
growing all the time. It isn't necessary to
ask why ? You know! :
