How often one finds a most imperfect piano in what would otherwise be a well-appointed home. So frequently, too, tbat piano is quite past restoration. Money spent on it would be money wasted. Get it up to tune —it drops back. Give it tone or touch — neither last. Imagine the thoughts of yo\ir guests who are asked to play upon or listen to such a discouraging instrument! Not only that, but you don't do justice to the talent of even your own family. Get another piano at once. Communicate with Mr. M. J. Brookes, North Island manager in Wellington, of the Dresden Piano Co., Ltd. His firm will allow full value for the old piano, and equip you with a new one —a really fine instrument; sensitive, responsive, triumphantly superior in every single respect. You can get it on time-payment, too, if you wish —simply 20s or so. each month, until -this really fine piano has become your very own. Local representative, Mr J W. Henrichs.—Advt.
