The MASON & HAMLIN CABINET ORGANS are ac¬ 
knowledged to be tlie best instruments of this class in the 
world. It is the policy of these makers to produce 7ione hut 
the ve7'y best work. They aim at success, not by using poor 
material and economizing in workmanship, so that their 
Instruments can be sold at a little less price ; but by produc¬ 
ing the most durable, reliable, and in all respects the be.st 
work possible, and selling it at the very lowest rates at 
which such work can possibly be afforded, and at the same 
prices to all. 
They now manufacture more than sixty different styles of 
Organs, varying in price from $75 to $1,000 each. These in¬ 
struments contain all the latest Improvements, some of 
wliicli are not to be found in otlier instruments, the right to 
their exclusive use having been purchased by M. & H., in. 
some cases at very large expense. 
MASON & HAMLIN have been awarded several times as 
many liigliest premiums, at Industrial Fairs, ns any otlier 
maker, having received fifty‘Six within a few J'ears. 
They present in their Circulars the printed testimony of a 
large majority of the most eminent Organists, Pianists, 
Singers and Composers in the country to the superiority of 
the Instruments of their make.

IISTIR BROTIRS, 
It is certainly economy In purchasing an instrument of 
this class to get the best, although the first cost may be a lit¬ 
tle more, as a poor instrument will soon get out of order and 
become comparatively worthless. 
Ei?” It should be remembered that the recommendations 
of dealers are not always reliable, as there is great tempta¬ 
tion for them to recommend those iiistriimeiits on which 
they can make the largest profit; and makers of inferior 
work can afford the largest discounts. Mason & Hamlin have 
fixed their retail prices so low that they' can afford only very 
small discounts, at wholesale, and hence the temptation to 
dealers to recommend and sell other instruments is great. 
Circulars with full descriptions, illustrations, and prices 
of the different styles, with hints on what constitutes, and 
how to select a good Instrument, sent free to any one desir¬ 
ing them. Address MASON & HAML.IN,
