Gand Piano Factory Sale and Dotted Piano Contest $350 PIANO FRE $350 PIANO $200 Contest Closes Wednesday Evening, February 1st, 1911. W.

Count the dots, using any method you wish. Only one answer accepted from each family. You must abide by the rules of the Coupon or your answer will not count. You Have the Same Chance As Any One Else To WIN Why We Can Afford To Give Away these Values We want the piand business of Scranton, Wilkes Barre and surrounding counties and we estimate that a few pianos placed around over this section of the state will introduce wherever they go a sample piano, and that that sale will bring others in its wake! It's not the one sale that Ave are after particularly, but the others that will follow. Also bear in miiul no city dealer can make the prices and terms that we can.

A city dealer has high salaried salesmen, exorbitant rents and a host of other expenses to contend with. All of these things to be added on to the price of the piano that's Jogical, isn't it? Well, our pianos come direct fom the Chase Hackley and Carlisle Piano factories especially for this sale and what does it matter if we give away in a contest of this nature a whole' lot of money that would otherwise go into expensive advertising, and Avhat does it matter whether we give a piano salesman, fifty dollars to make a sale or whether we give that fifty dollars or more to you in a certificate and you come to the store and buy a piano; what difference, pray? If you want to profit by these things let" us hear from you promptly. Disinterested judges will be chosen, who will select the winners and the decision of the judges will be final, All prize winners will be notified.
