M. ‘Spinning & HISTORY— The D. S. Johnston Co. made history during Sale important in its significance that it caused the its recent Annual Clearance History so entire piano trade of the United States to take notice. Nearly One Hundred and Fifty Pianos sold in a single month! And that in January —considered a quiet month—a fact almost be yond the belief of many members of the piano trade. Wherein lies the significance of this achieve ment? If the Johnston way of conducting the piano business is a different way from that pur sued by the regular trade; if the Johnston Piano establishments have met with a public response received by no other store, the meaning of such a condition must be of considerable importance to every prospective buyer of a piano. WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN? It means that the confidence of the buying public is vitally essential to the success of any business, which success grows only as fast as public confidence in it g It means that the piano-buyer is prone to hesitate only when he has reason to doubt the relation between the QUAI ITY of the piano he wants to select and the PRICE he is asked to pay for it. It means that this is a different kind of a piano store, and because of this fact that the attitude of the piano-buying public toward it is of a kind DIFFERENT from that assumed to- ward the piano business in general. It means that the public knows that every claim and statement made by the Pioneer Piano House is exactly so.. No deception, no exag- geration—just a plain statement of facts as they actually exist. To sum up, it means, in dealing with the House of Johnston you have that assurance and satisfaction which goes with the knowledge of having secured the greatest intrinsic value for every dollar invested. ws commensurate ABSTRACTS OFT!
