ARTS.
A literary work is judged by
the fame of its Author, a paint-
ing by that of the artist, a stat-
ute by that of its sculptor, so
should a PIANO be judged by
the character and ability of the
maker.
When you buy a HOBART M.

an I VERS & POND you get a
piano which bears the name of
men whose life training, educa-
tion, ambition and capital, have
always been and always will be
directed to the one sole single
intense purpose of making THE
BEST PIANO THAT MIND
CAN DESIGN AND HANDS
CONSTRUCT. Either one of
these great pianos in your home
is an unquestioned evidence of
cultured musical taste and dis
crimination.
These great pianos are for
sale by P. N. Valiant, Carbon,
Texas, who represents J. H.
WILDER, Dublin, and Brown-
wood, THE LEADING PIANO
MAN OF TEXAS.
