Easy Payments for Pest 
Organs. 
THE MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN CO., winners Of TWO 
HIGHEST MEDALS and DIPLOMA of HONOR at PARIS, 
1867, VIENNA, 1873, respectfully announce that they now 
offer their celebrated Cabinet Organs not only exclusively 
for cash, as formerly, but also on different plans of easy 
payments which, it is 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 ot 
only a reasonable rent for the time the organ is used. 
2. Time to make payments, varying to suit the conveni¬ 
ence of purchasers. An organ may he obtained by a tirst 
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 loicest pos¬ 
sible remunerative rate to the Company. An organ, ihough 
taken with privilege of return, if 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 
such an organ could he 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 their organs give in use, are confident 
that very few will he returned, and that this will make even 
such low and favorable terms remunerative to them. 
Organs can be furnished through agents, or directly, to 
almost any part of the country, on these terms. 
Illustrated Catalogues, Terms and Prices, with all partic¬ 
ulars, sent free. Address MASON & HAMLIN ORGAN 
CO., Boston, New York, or Chicago.
