NEW STYLE NOW READY FOR i8s7. i EATTY?S BEST is the leading styles It is perond doubt the very best for the money in the world. DESCRIPTION OF BEATTY’S BEST. Solid Black Walnut. It is a magnificent cabinet or parlor organ, suitable for the parlor of a millionaire, built from the very choicest of materials the market affords or ready money can buy. -Made_ after an upright Piano Forte, with three bellows combined—a new scientific plan—so as to render all the sweetest melodies possible frum the . Golden Tongue Rees, patented, while at . the same time doing away with so many . stops to confuse the performer, yet at the . same time bringing out sweeter music than ever. In this Organ attention is paid more ~ particularly to its music, yet the case is finished very neat bu plain, finished light, so that purchaser can see for himself that iti. “aot imitation walnut built from pine wood, but solid walnut, built plain, so as not to take dust or dirt. Contains 18 full sets of solden tongue reeds of one-half octave each, + and 12 full stops. The two knee stops throw !on the balance. No dummies. Equal toa . nae Organ. "Elegantly finished and ém. bellished with handsome polished panels land exquisite fret work designs, Thus it . will be seen we offer aninstrument haying . every requisite of the most perfect parlor . Organ in a handsome solid walnut case. OCTAVE COUPLER The Octave Coupler differs from those in any other styles, and is the greatest invention of the age in reed Organs, -1t-is-a—pa ; tent divided octave coupler, and couples . full five octayes, thus doubling the power. {tis divided at the third o¢tave, has two coupler s*ops, so that the bass and treble can be coupled toxether or separately,as desired. {t is made of strong coppered steel rods, and isan invaluable improvement on the old pernicious 35-cent wooden.couplers in general use, which couples only four octaves, have only one coupler stop, which warp, swell and disarrange the entire action. To avoid getting a 35-cent wooden coupler, buy no Organ that has not two coupler stops,and that does hot Couple both ways, up and down. Examine the stops carefully and if you cannot find two coupler stops do not buy the Organ; it has a wooden coupler,and a wooden coupler is a continual source of annoyance, and renders an organ worthless after a few months’ use. Best pantented stop action to be found in the world. Daniel F. Beatty, Washington, New Jersey. Nevada County N. GRR. rpralns WILL LEAVE AND ARRIVE AY Nevada City, .
