THE DEAGAN NABIMBO The DEAGAN NABIMBO, a new Deagan musical creation, on the order of the South American Marimba, embodyving all the desirable features of the South American Marimba, as to tone. The DEAGAN NABIMBO is a most wonderful musical instrument, and has a tone very much like stringed instruments, or a combination of stcing and reed instruments. It is played with mallets same as Xylophone, is light in weight, easy to pack, will stay in tune, will not get out of order, easy to play and has a tone that is a revelation in music. Unlike the South American Marimbas, which are bulky and can not be kept in order, the NABIMBOJis a most practical instrument and has been specially designed with the idea of producing an instrument that would be practical for general use. The NABIMBO will pack in a very small space and is unquestionably one of the greatest DEAGAN creations. We have been able to produce this most wonderful instrument through the discovery of a new Musical Wood. Our wood experts are now in the tropical forests of South America selecting the material from which the NABIMBOS are to be made, and we have on hand at the present time a few sample NABIMBOS which we can offer for immediate delivery. If you are looking for a feature instrument, something that has never before been seen by the amusement public, a DEAGAN NABIMBO is the instrument for you. Positively nothing of the kind ever before introduced. Write for full particulars. J.C. DEAGAN Chicago, U.S. A. Berteau and E. Ravenswood Ave.,
