HE LOOKED INSIDE BUT HE DIDN’T SEE

John Jones was a man who didn’t believe in buying a pig in a poke, so when he was purchasing a piano for his family he did lift the lid and strike a few notes, to make* sure the “works” were there all right. But Mr Jones wasn’t a piano expert and though lie looked inside it didn’t do him much good. For that piano had two defects which nobody but a piano expert could have detected. First, there was borer, not visible to casual inspection. Secondly, the plank was so badly strained that accurate tuning was impossible. You can imagine Mr Jones's feelings when he learned the truth about his “bargain” piano! People without "inside information” should buy only from recognised piano dealers, whose reputation offers protection to the public. Charles Begg and Co. Ltd. are a national institution with modern shops m ten cities. They are piano experts with 82 years’ experience in buying, selling, constructing and repairing instruments. Begg’s used pianos are all thoroughly examined and reconditioned, and are offered at prices that re-

present to-day’s true value. Begg’s service protects both buyer and seller. Begg’s pay best cash prices for pianos of all and keenly urge owners of idle pianos to make them an' offer or to ask for Begg’s valuation.*-
