It lias been stated that 
40,000 ORGANS 
(presumably “ Cabinet Organs”) are sold annually— some¬ 
where; which we think is nearly the whole number ot all 
sorts of reed organs made in the United States. But over 
40,000 AMERICAN ORGANS 
arc in use, and we arc constantly extending our facilities for 
manufacture. Tiie Smith American Organ Co. is the 
oldest among New England makers, having heen in business 
over twenty-one years. Our organs are distributed over the 
civilized world, and arc everywhere recognized as 
The Leading Instruments. 
English manufacturers, wishing to commend their wares, 
advertise them in large type as 
AMERICAN ORGANS! 
While we believe in BRAINS, MU¬ 
SICAL FEELING, and CULTI¬ 
VATED TASTE ’ and-think that such 
a combination will, not be beaten, in the 
production of artistic works ,.. by aviy 
quantity of planers, borers, and jig-saws, 
we nevertheless avail ourselves of every 
practical expedient to. save labor, by em¬ 
ploying machinery to do such work as 
does not require intellect for its perfec¬ 
tion. There is no establishment that uses 
so niant/ 
INGENIOUS LABOR-SAVING MACHINES. 
Our large capital— equal in. amount to thill of any compet¬ 
ing company— enables us to purchase ample supplies of 
THE BEST MATERIALS, 
and to give thorough workmanship and completeness to 
every part of opr instruments. And for this end we piean 
to secure the most 
Intelligent Supervision 
in every department, and especially to produce the most 
BRILLIANT AND MELODIOUS TORE. 
Our prices arc. as low as those of any instruments that pre¬ 
tend to a comparison in quality. ' j . 
We shall be glad to send onr new 
RED-LINE CATALOGUE 
to any address upon application.

Respected Friends: In reply to your inquiry as to what 
we think of the AVerillCliemleal Paint,,we have used in our 
Society at Mount Lebanon some 1 ,C00 gallons. AYe are yery 
much pleased with it, and until wo are convinced that there 
is something better, shall give it the preference of all other 
paints. AA'e have used heretofore the (-.), (-—), and most 
all other brands of white lftacl-nicitlrer of which have' given 
us perfect satisfaction. Most of it would cliall^ off after be¬ 
ing oiqsome two or three years. Tjiis, three, years’ 
experience*, we do not fliul to its the case‘ with! tlfo Averill 
Pure AYhite Chemical Paint. Indeed, it appears just as well 
as when first put on. I will write you again on the subject 
when I am not in quite so much of a hurry.
