The pianowas invontod m Italy some 400 years ago and was then a very crude affair, not at all like—either in tone, touch or appearance —the be uitiful instruments with which we are now familiar. It is difficult to say where tho best pianos are made ; indeed, there is not much to choose between tho productions of the best German or English manufacturers. The selection of a piano is pretty much a question of individual tiste and requirement, There are so many makers, so many prices and; qualities which a purchaser must consider, that'it is always ad j isablo to consult a roliable firm of specialists, preferably a firm with a good reputation, a thorough knowledge of the business, and a large stock to select from. Purchase your piano from the Dresden Piano Company, Limited. They are to be deponded upon in all these respects. Time payments from 20s. monthly. Local Representative: T. B. Hunter. Beware of the dealer, salesman, or traveller who casts reflections upon his competitors. He does so from interested motives—perhaps to back up his own weak position. Our Agents are instructed not to discredit rival funis. They are to rely solely on the merits of tho Company's instruments.
