STIEFF PIANOS “Sing Their Own Praise.” One of the greatest charac teristics of the past and present day Is INDI VIDUALITY. The individuality of the STIEFF PIANO is its chief charm. There is NO other piano just like the STIEFF. Others try to imitate, but some how they fail to reach that “ev erything”—that “individuality” characteristic of the StiefE Pi ano. THE STIEFF PIANO enjoys still another “Individual ity” foreign to any other great make. It is sold direct to the user. This “Individuality” se cures an ideal piano, one that will meet every deinand or the greatest pianist or most exact ing musician at a moderate cost. Write for catalogues, prices, etc. Chas. M.
