Some of these planos have been used but & short time; some have been reverted; some are samples from va- rious factories; some have been traded in on the famous Weber and Autopiano and other high grade goods, For instance, we sold St, Dominic's Academy of Everett, Wash., three high grade planos and took in exchange several D. 8. Johnston pianos, for which we allowed a very small amount. We do not carry these goods regularly, so will not refuse any reasonable offer for them. Now, if you want a prac- tice piano and only have @ limited amount to pay for same, we would advise one of these instraments, as they are all in good condition and will do very well for practice purposes Following is @ partial Met of other bargains we are offering: 8 Stuyvesant Pianos (regular price $400), slightly used, $275. 1 Kohler & Campbell (regular price $400), used one year, $275. 1 Rudolf (regular price 50), sample plano, $220. 4 Kohler & Chases, slightly used, $266, $276, $288, $290, respem tively 2 Iverson Pianos (regular price $250), $146, $168 respectively. 2 Hoffman Pianos, $350, $235, $245, respectively. 2 Kohler & Campbell Pianos (regular price $325), $286, $265 re spectively 2 Winthrop Pianos (regular price $285, $350), slightly used, §190, $240, respectively 1 Weber plano (regular price $600), used 6 months, $600, 4 Btarch Art Styles (new), must be closed out at §400 each. 1 Starck (regular price $350), $246 The above prices may not indicate to you that you are getting any great value in a piano, from the fact that you are used to readt advertisements where two or three hundred dollars are cut from the regular price of the piano. It is very easy to add an extra hundred or one hundred and fifty dollars to the regular price of the piano in order to make that much greater cut when advertising spectals of this kind. But we are a strictly one-priced house, and all new goods be longing to our regular line are marked at the absolute lowest price possible to make « legitimate profit, which every house must do to continue business. We RESPECTFULLY solicit you to call and in vestigate this line of pianos, as many of them are certain bargains, if you are satisfied with slightly used planos We have about six or eight slightly used Autopianos which we will sell at prices varying from $350 and upwards, including free use ot our circulating Mbrary. We would advise xou to investigate this offer if you are thinking of purchasing a player plano. ———___—__— KOHLER & CHASE 1318 Second Av., Beattie. Wn. WEBER PIANO DEALERS | The Two Chief—-~ Factors in Saving First, the habit of it, the regularity of it, the system of steadily putting away on each and every pay day a fixed portion of one's income. It means a strengthen- ing of Character it means Independ- ence; it means Accumulation—faster and larger than you can easily realize until you have made a good start. Second, the Interest; the fact that the money which you work for is also work- ing for you; that every six months the Interest which. It earns begins in turn to earn interest on itself. This Compound Interest soon grows to Important size; it is, of course, all extra over and above the sums that you actually save and de- posit. You might get more on stocks, bonds or other securities—and you might not. This you get easily, surely, without the risk or worry which all must incur in making other investments. . i ‘ Scandinavian American Bank laska Building, Seattle, U.
