Maiu street. They are 50 by too
' feet, two stories, and when finished

Both sn rented for the next year,
and are conveniently situated for
the trade.
The registration books for this

spead over the State.
The State Fair opens on the 27th

the largest company in the world

instruments are high grade in tone
and finish. Easy payments and
low prices, make them popular
with the trade. The "Cable'"and
"Kingsbury" pianos are among
the stock and each one is a beauty
in both quality of finish, volume
and sweetness of tone.
Dr. Hyatt's recent visit to Wil

By this srrangefnest he is easbkd
