| TEXT | The American people do not as a rule manifest the same musical ability as the Italians or Germans, yet in the manufacture of pianos they surpass all other nations. New York has long held a prominent position in this industry, and the pianofortes produced here are to be found in all parts of the civilized world, where they have won the highest honors. A prominent house engaged in dealing in these instruments is that of Mr. T. Dumahaut, No. 8 West 14th Street, which was established in 1872, and since its inception at that date has obtained a liberal and substantial patronage. Mr. Dumahaut keeps constantly on hand instruments made to his order, and also the most famous pianos of Steinway, Weber and Chickering of New York, Knabe & Co. of Baltimore, Emerson & Co. and Vose & Sons of Boston, and various other' first-class makers. Every facility is offered purchasers for obtaining first-class instruments at reasonable prices, which may be rented at most liberal terms, or purchased on the instalment system. The pianos that emanate from Mr. Dumahaut's establishment have a national reputation, and sales are effected all over the United States and Canada, these instruments being the recipients of kind words from the press, professionals and the public. They are sold at prices which are as low as can be named for first class instruments, although of course higher than the figures placed on the miserable apologies with which the market at present is flooded. The impetus given to musical art and taste throughout Europe and A'merica is unquestionably due to the pianoforte, the manufacture of which has been happily facilitated by the application of steam power, aided by many mechanical inventions for supplanting hand labor. The piano is no longer an article of luxury, designed exclusively for the rich, or a parlor ornament, to be kept sacredly locked except upon gome important family festival. Mr. Dumahaut's pianos are unrivalled for purity, sympathetic quality, sweetness and volume, and are well known to be the most perfect, durable and reliable in this city. Those giving their orders to this house will find their interests carefully guarded and protected in every particular. |
