Do you knowthat you cari buy a Chickering Piano for only TWELVE Probably not. priced pianos. securing of even a superb Chickering is within the reach of the most modest means.

The Salaried Man, whose income is fixed, and who is abundantly able to make the monthly payment, would get tired saving up the money to pay spot cash. The Club gives his piano at once.

We started out with the determination to sell pianos on easy terms, at the very lowest cash prices, charging only for the loan of the money; and making the cost of the loan as little as money could be loaned for. only about six or eight dollars, on the average, to the cost of the piano, to buy it on long easy terms. And when you add this small interest to the WANAMAKER price, you still do not pay as much, as you would have to pay else- where, in spot cash, for such a piano.
