The Wester INusic Co. Announces the Most Important
Sale Ever Attemipted in Atlanta’s History,
$38,400 Worth of High Grade Instruments, Consist
ing of 114 Uprights, 4 Grands, 6 Player-Pianos
and 43 Organs, Will Be Closed Qut
The Grandest Money-Saving Event, the Greatest Sale
in Number and Quality of the Instruments Ever
Known—An Entire Stock Sacrificed—Ev
erything Goes—Nothing Reserved.
Big Two-Weeks’ Sale Begins INonday Morning, May
llBth—Opportunities Here to Save sioo to $250 in
Piano Purchase—Out of Town People Should
Write or Phone Us at Once—Open Even
ings—No. 64 Peachtree Street.
In announcing this great sale of
pianos, player pianos, organs, etc., we
wish to take the publie, the piano-buy
ing publie, into our contidence, make a
plain statement of facts and tell our
very goond reasons for sacrificing this
entire stock.
Our constantly increasing business
has so taxed our presgent quarters that
extensive alterations, improvements
and repairs have become absolutely nec
essary. These alterations will necessi
tate the cutting away of division walls,
changing elevator and stairway, laying
new floors throughout and installing
more piano parlors.
Owing to the present overcrowded
condition of our warerooms, and in or
der that work may be done expedi
tiously and without interruption it is
‘absolutely necessary that we dispose in
’some way of this immense stock.
No need to tell you that the gritty
dust arising from brick and mortar is
injurious to the highly polished surface
of the pianos. No need to tell you that
pianos would be damaged by constantly
moving them about, or that the work
men must have room, These things,
while they make this sale necessary,
gcarcely need be told.
Now we have let the contracts for this
work and the workmen are ready to be
gin a 8 soon a 8 we get this stoek out of
the way. We have to move these in
struments and it must be done quickly,
at once.
So, to make short work of it, we have
decided to offer this atock at cost or
lees for two weeks for cash or easy pay
‘ments, to the people of this city and
state. As we must move thase pianos
we have determined to move them to
homes of the people even at a great sac
rifice in price rather than move them
about from place to place, building to
building, with consequent expense and
damage.
We are prepared to make any sacri
fice in order to accomplish this much
desired result. We are not going to
consider value or former price, We
will shut our eyes to all loss and grin
and take our medicine.
We will net only cut out, ecut off all
profit, but on certain lines of instru
ments we will make a big sacrifice on
cost. In most cases the actual saving
on upright pianos will be $125 to $250,
On player pianos $l5O to $3OO, and on'
organs_s2s to $5O. |

The Indianapolis News prints
this interesting story: ‘‘Dr. M.
R. Comhs, one of Terre Haute’s
hest known physicians, is recover
ing from pneumonia, and the med
ical fraternity say that his life was
gsaved by hercic treatment, of
which there ie no record of a like
case. A freezing water bath was
given him at the moment he was
thought to be dying, to shock the
regpiratory centres and thus re
store reepiration. Cold water
baths in cases of fever are fre
quently adm:inistered to lower the
temperature, but Dr. Combs’ tem
perature was normal. He was
kept in the bath three hours, The
death rattle ceased after a short
time following the immersion, and
respiration scon became stronger.
The entire staff of Union hospital
had been interested, and assisted
in the fiight for his life, when, at
the critical stage, Dr. Niblack
suggested the ice water bath.”
