“We Hail From Seattle,” Ellery Will Say CHANNING Do you know that it cost the slim sum of $5,200 to fetch Channing Ellery and his 50 bandsmen to Se- | from attle’s Golden Potlatch all the way | from Edinburgh, Scotland? Probably you did not, but that the fact, nevertheless. The Ellery band, which ts really | claiming Seattle as its home since the A-Y.P. exposition, played a 10 weeks’ engagement in Scotland, ap ing only at Glasgow and Edin urgh—they call it Edin-bur-ne-r over there!

EXAMINATIONS — New York Dental Parlors THE STAR—FRIDAY, ULY 26.4 1911. Your money back is not only the letter but the spirit of the Kohler & Chase Piano Club We say, in speaking of and advertising this big Kohler & Chase Piano Club: “If the piano is not satisfactory after 30 days’ use we will give you your money back.” This is not a “catchpenny” scheme. This is not done as an inducement to get you to join the Club, then not live up to it. “We mean to give you your money back” if, you ask for it. We have no other intention— never have had—nor ever will have. If you are dissatisfied with the Kohler & Chase Club Piano after thirty days’ use, all you have to do is to say so, and we will send and get the piano and return your money. We will not even ask you the “whys” and “wherefores”—we simply will give you your money back. We know this piano we are selling to this club. We know it like we know our A B C’s, and in order that you and the public should know it, we hit upon this old, time honored proposition. of “Your Money Back” —though as far as we know this is the first time it has ever been applied to selling pianos. But this is not all Club members get a full year’s trial : It is our belief that a person cannot get a satisfactory trial of any piano, either good or bad, in 30 days. If, however, a thirty days’ trial dissatisfies a Club Member, we will give him his money back. On the other hand, we have arranged a trial for each and every Club Piano that will tell the tale—that will show whether or not this Club Piano is worthy of a permanent place in your home. Printed right across the face of the contract is an agreement that gives to each and every Club Member the privilege of ex- changing His Club Piano, at any time within one (1) year with- out one penny’s loss. Explain this, you say? It’s just like this: Privilege of exchange of The Kohler & Chase club piano Privilege is given the purchaser to exchange KOHLER & CHASE CLUB PIANO (No. YEAR from date. The exchange, if made, shall be made for any new piano sold by us of equal or greater value at the time exchange is made, all payments made on the piano herein mentioned being placed to the credit of the price of instrument for which it is exchanged. (Signed) KOHLER & CHASE. You join the club—you then, as a Club Member, become entitled to all its advantages and privileges. One of those privileges is: A year’s trial of the piano. In other words—the Club Member has one year’s full time to fully satisfy himself as to the character of the piano he is getting. Now Join the Player Piano Club The world’s masterpieces are at your finger tips the moment we install one of these beautiful Club player pianos in your home. Suppose that year’s trial is not satisfactory—what then? We will exchange it The Club Member can come to our store and make another selection. He can select a piano of equal grade or a better grade. Whatever money he has paid, whether it is $40, $50, $60, $100, or whatever the amount, will be credited. to the price of his new piano, and we will take the original Club Piano back without the loss of a single cent to him. It is a player piano that has never sold for less than $650, and it is worth every cent of it. Now you can buy it for $487.50 without one cent interest. And best of all—look at the easy payments. $12.50 sends it to your home and the balance may be paid for, $2.50 a week. There is many a home that has been waiting just such an opportunity to get a player piano. Honestly now—have you ever seen or heard of a fairer proposition? These pianos are worth $375. The club price is $277.50—thus saving you $97.50. The terms are $5 cash and $1.25 a week, less than 1-2 the regular terms The pianos are worth $378. The Kohler & Chase Club price is $277.50.
