PIANO TALK. A GOOD PIANO is a first-class investment, as well as a means of culture and pleasure. There is no article manufactured that will give as large a return for the money invested. Granting this to be true, the Piano to be sought after by those who wish to buy must not only have a good tone, but be well and faithfully made, and be sold at a fair price. It must be built to stand years of use. The Pianos now offered by THE DRESDEN PIANO COMPANY fulfil all these conditions. Handsome m appearance, excellent m tone, and the price and terms on which they are sold bring them 'within the reach of all. They have every point to recommend them to the prudent buyer. Landed m your house at prices and terms distinctly low for such high-class instruments. Send for Catalogue. THE DRESDEN PIANO COMPANY, LAMBTON QUAY, WELLINGTON. M. J. BROOKES, Manager. Agent- C.
