IT'S STRANGE
That the majority of piano
buyers imagine the higher the
price the better the article
without stopping to investi
gate. Every person in the
South should know that the
Artistic Stieff is sold direct
from the factory to fireside,
thus saving the middleman's
profit to the home.
The retail dealers' piano at
a higher price is not and can
not be better, it is simply a
matter of profit. His piano at
the same price won't compare
with the Stieff, because neces
sarily it must be a cheaper
grade to cover his profit. Pay
ing his profit does not secure a
better piano.
Manufacturer of the piano with
the sweet tone.
