The prices are cueh that every piano and organ will be sold.

Fully Guaranteed. Each piano and organ in the Hudson House Block is fully guaranteed by the wealthiest piano and organ man ufacturers in the United States, and any bank in this country will confirm the statement that such a guarantee is as good as any that can be given. Do not be lead to believe that any other guarantee clothed in ambiguous lan guage is any better, for if such as the Stein way, Knabe and Chickering do not give any different than is given on the pianos in the Hudson House Block there is something not exactly right about it. Some say they will guarantee a piano “during its life.” Well, what is its life. Can anyone tell how long anything will live? It may live two years, and it may not. Then who can tell when a piano is dead. The fair and square way of making a guarantee is to say just how many years you will guarantee it, as anything else is guar anteed. It is proof positive that a guarantee “during its life is not t*iie best way to put it in the fact that the leading manufacturers of the world will not give such a guarantee, and neyer have. Atlanta, Ga., August 3rd, 1898. William Geppert, Gainesville, Ga.—Have just sold Cox College sixteen Kingsbury Pianos. • CABLE PIANO CO This indicates that the Kingsbury Pianos have merits in every way that place it far above other makes. In no contest with schools in the State of Georgia has the Kingsbury ever been beaten, although in competition with other makes that make great claims. Cox College stands'in the foremost ranks of the educational institutions of learning in the South, and this is indeed a great victory for the Kingsbury, as Cox College is able to purchase any make of instrument desired. Mrs. Sallie Cox Stanton, who has charge of the music department, and Mrs. Alico Cox Crenshaw in charge of the piano department, are musicians of high standing, and their judgment ia- worthy of consideration. Let their estimation of the Kingsbury help any one wishing to make a selec tion of a piano. J. G. Hynds Mfg. Co.’s Midsummer Clearance Sale of Organdies, Lawns, White Goods, Etc.
