REVIEW
These "old time houses with years of experience and prestige" are of value
to us. They handle the Mira and find it pays. Why not you?

GENTLEMEN :—it is now about eight months
since the first stock of "Mira" Musical Cabi-
nets were placed on sale in our warerooms,
and the instantaneous success in marketing
them is one of the pleasant things we shall
always remember in connection with our busi-
ness ! The spontaneous expressions of delight
because of the beautiful tone, and the artistic
manner with which the mechanism is sur-
rounded, compel attention from prospective
buyers, and impress lookers to such a degree
that after having once heard and seen these
remarkable instruments, they are never com-
pletely satisfied until they become owners of
one.
The care with which you finish, adjust and
set the temperament, has proven so great that
the usual necessary repairs, even to new stock,
are seldom required in the handling of these
beautiful goods. We have already placed upon
our record lists many names of customers
who have bought boxes and are continually
calling for new Tune Sheets.
We congratulate you upon the wonderful
advancement made by you in the manufacture
of Musical Boxes and Musical Cabinets, and if
other distributors have met with a fraction of
the large success we have met with selling
these goods, we predict before the year is out
you will be overwhelmed with orders, and un-
able to take care of much new business.
Wishing, therefore, to be wholly and en-
tirely prepared for emergencies, we are here-
with placing with you an order for Fall de-
livery, which under other circumstances would
be about four times the quantity desired, but we
feel we are taking no risk.
With best wishes, we remain,
Very respectfully yours,
Jacol Music Box Company, Nezv York.
GENTLEMEN :—After a long and varied ex-
perience with Music Boxes, we are convinced
that "The Mira" is the most perfect and satis-
factory Musical Cabinet now on the market.
The tone is clear, rich and powerful and
the instrument plays with musical expression
which we did not believe possible in a music
box. Yours very truly,
We have handled all of the disc Music
Boxes, of every make, and this is the first one
manufactured that gives universal satisfaction.
Very sincerely yours,
CARLIN & LENNOX.
FROM MACKIE PIANO, ORGAN &
MUSIC CO., ROCHESTER, N. Y.

GENTLEMEN :—Your Mira Musical Cabinets
are a revelation to us, as well as to all who
have heard them. Your Grands play the most
difficult music with expression and with a
piano tone, rich and full, and the endorsement
of the general public, as well as the best judges
in-Rochester, has been instantaneous.
We take great pleasure in endorsing the
opinion of our customers and congratulate
you on your ability to • manufacture a long
wanted high class article of this kind. Yours

Jacot Music Box Co., New York City.
GENTLEMEN :—The Hayes Music Company
desires only to give its patrons that which is
universally considered the very best. After
careful consideration based on investigation
both personal and from information derived
by the most reliable sources we took on the
.Mira. We have sold a greater number of your
finest cabinets to the best people in this city
and they all endorse our judgment.

bered among the leading houses who are ex-
clusive agents of the new and latest Music
Cabinets, The Mira. Your Grands are a mar-
vel for tone, brilliancy of execution, and ex-
pression hardly conceivable. We are justified
in saying that our customers endorse our
opinion and it is gratifying to us to know we
are giving them the best.
HOUSE,
FROM
Ji/cot Music Box Co., New York.
DEAR SIRS:—The dealers' testimonial pub-
lished in the Music Trades of April 28, 190tJ,
expresses our feelings regarding the Mira and
Mira Grand music boxes.
Our orders of last December, and since, on
Grands and Cabinet Grands is the most satis-
factory part to us, and ought to be to you,
as it exceeds any three years' business we have
ever done in this line. The results have been
so satisfactory that we not only advertise it
weekly the year round, but we have just made
a contract with the Street Car Company to
place a nice show card of the new Mira
Grand in every car. Yours very respectfully,
WERNER MUSIC HOUSE.

GENTLEMEN :—We have long desired lu give
our customers a self-player that would possess
the tone of a piano and that wpuld render the
music with an expression satisfactory to the
highest artistic taste.
We state with pleasure that in your Mira
Grands you have manufactured an instrument
that possesses all of these qualities, and it is
gratifying to us to congratulate you on having
manufactured a high class article of this order.

Lyon & llealy, after trying all makes of
music boxes, have finally decided that the pro-
duct of Mermod Frercs excels all other music
boxes in tone, quality and durability; their
lone comparing to advantage with that of the
tine old Cylinder Music Boxes which were so
popular. Since taking up this line the demand
for music boxes has increased so that this is
now one of the most profitable retail depart-
ments.
