MUSIC Etc. Mason & Hamlin Organ No. 2208, five octaves, nine stops. For $100 in new subscriptions. [Illustration: Mason & Hamlin] The cash price of this organ in music stores depends on where the store is, its costs, and its scale of profits. The lowest price we know of is $99; the highest $165. Size 4-11x1-11x5. Weight in case 322 lbs. One of the most perplexing bargains a family has to make nowadays is in buying a musical instrument. Price and quality, both, are in doubt. There is probably some good reason for what appears to be chronic demoralization pervading the musical instrument business in every part of this enormous country of ours. We can’t control the fact. We have got round it, if you happen to want an organ. We’ll try, if you want a piano. * * * * * [Illustration] Pitch-pipe, A and C, in a handy pocket-case.
