hidden & Bates Will Allow Each Customer to Guess.
Buy a F/ano or an Organ, Guess, and Maybe Get Your Instrument Free.
Since hidden & Bates Sell the Best Instruments at
Lowest Prices, Why Not Buy One With a Chance
of Getting It as a Present?
We always guarantee the best values for the price; and your money goes to a firm that believes in doing things for the good of its patrons .
Ludden & Bates have been established in Savannah forty years, and expect to remain permanently. This assures purchasers that a guar
antee issued by this house on an instrument is an asset within itself. This should not be underestimated, as experience has frequently shown
that it is a dangerous thing to rely upon the guarantee of a non-resident or transient house.
HOW THE CONTEST WILL BE CONDUCTED.
Each customer of Ludden & Bates Southern Music House purchasing a Piano or Organ from any of their representatives will be allowed a guess at
the total number of sales of Pianos and Organs made by this progressive house during 1904. Below is given a list of the sales for last May, which may
serve as a basis for estimating those of the entire year:

Do Not Miss This Chance to Fill Your Home With Free Music from a Fine Instrument.
In connection with the above we have inaugurated a sale of a fine lot of new Pianos, representing the product of a number of the leading manufacturers of the country, which we have decided to discon
tinue handling; not because they have proven unsatisfactory, but that we may give our whole time and effort to the sale of the world-famed Cockering, Mathushek, Ivers Sc Pond, Lodden Sc Bates, Lester
and Kohler and Campbell (pianos), and Estey and Lodden & Bates (organs). There will be some rare bargains in these special pianos. The been cut just half in two. All persons taking the
benefit of this special sale will be allowed a guess as though they had bought at the regular price.
In order that this guessing contest may be conducted with fairness to all parties concerned, arrangements have been made for disinterested parties to examine the books at branch stores of the company,
and certify as to the correctness of the number of sales made during the year 1904. The following parties have consented to act in this capacity at the branch stores set opposite their respective names:
John M. Hogan, Cashier Germania Bank, Savannah, Ga. W. H. Banks, Cashier Tifton Bank, Tifton, Ga. D. C. Ashley, President First National Bank, Valdosta, Ga.
