Easy Payments for Best 
Organs. 
THE MASOX & HAMLIN OUGAN CO.. winners ofTWO 
HIGHEST MEDALS and DIPLOMA of HONOR at PARIS, 
1867, VIENNA, 1873, reepeci fully announce thnt they now 
offer their celebrated Cabinet Org ns not only exclusively 
for cash, as formerly, but also on different plana of easy 
payments which, it, iti believed, afford purchasers unprece- 
dented inducements. Characteristics of these plans are:— 
1. Opportunity to try an organ six months or longer be- 
fore concluding to purchase it. This may be done at cost of 
only a reasonable rent for the time the organ Is used. 
3. Tone t<> male payments, varying to unit the convent' 
ence of purchaser*. An orpin may be obtained by a rirst 
payment of less than ten dollars, with payments monthly, 
quarterly, or at other intervals extending through one to 
four years. 
3. The affording these accommodations! at the lowest pos- 
Bible rem nut rati re rate to the Company. An organ, iliough 
taUenwith privilege of return, il purchased and the pay- 
ment for it made within one year, costs the purchaser only 
five to ten per cent more than the lowest price for which 
Buch an organ could be obtained for by payment of all cash. 
Many dealers say that such terms cannot possibly be 
afforded. The Mason &. Hamlin Co., knowing the quality 
of their work, and having ample experience to assure them 
of the satisfaction theirorsrans give In u-c, are confident 
that very few will be returned, nnd that this will make even 
such low and favorable terms remunerative to them. 
Organs can b.: furnished through agents, or directly, t» 
almost any part ol the country, on these terms.
