CABLE MIDGET PLEASES.
The small upright of The Cable Co., Chicago,
called "The Sun Parlor Midget," is creating consider-
able interest in the trade by its novelty and suitability
to the purposes for which it is designed. Instead of
being entirely constructed of wood, the instrument
has woven cane panels. This makes the instrument
much lighter than the regular Cable Midget, and
allows it to be easily handled. The little piano is
very attractive and makes an instant appeal to those
who favor a light and small instrument. It has all
the tone and range of the full-sized upright without
the additional bulk.
