THE BEST GIFT . OF ALL �A · PIANO

Above all others, and beyond all possible discus­sion, there stands out at this holiday season one great incontrovertible fact for the gift buyer--'-the

, one stated in the caption of this advertisement. T H E BEST GI FT OF ALL-A PIANO. There can be no question about that; the slightest consid­eration will convince you that as a token ·of regard, good-will and good feeling a Piano stands pre-emi· nent.

If you would make your home glad and genial and sociable, in no way are you so likely to accom­plish that object as by putting a Piano there. The man, woman or child does not exist who will not be made happier and better by its in fluence; not merely singly, but collcclively, for music is an unselfish pleasure. ·

A Piano for all the family in common is the best . possible solution of your gift.gi ving dilemma.
