A ?* " * - " Your Piano ' s Usefulness . HAS it ever occurred to you what pleasure-giving possibilities are lying stored up in your piano ? For nearly three hundred years the greatest intellects in the musical world have provided compositions specially for the piano . Yet , how many pieces can row play ? You know how much music means i : practically all your entertainments , the part it plavs in your evcrv-clay life even . Would it not , then , be of considerable importance to have the world ' s whole pianoforte literature made accessible to you , and , further , to become endowed with the ability to play after the manner of the finest exponents of to-day . The ownership of a Metrostyle Pianola makes all this possible . More than 12 , 000 different compositions have already been prepared for it , and all of them are available through our Circulating Library . Padcrcwski , Moskowski , Chaminade , and many others have marked music rolls for us showing how they interpret them , and by following such markings you can reproduce almost to a nicetv the virtuoso ' s performance . Dr . RICHARD STK . U'SS writes : — " I gladly acknowledge to you my admiration and intense interest for your Metrostyle Pianola . That through it the interpretation of an artist is reproduced as though he himself sat at the instrument would appear lo me to be really incredible if I had not heard it myself . The thought seems even yet like a fairy tale . " Call on us to-day , or write for Catalogue . Note . —Perhaps you do not care to go to the expense of obtaining a new Metrostyle Pianola , even on the easy payment system , at this time . In that case , why not secure a secondhand Pianola ? A large number of our customers have testified to their satisfaction in having purchased Pianolas bv their readiness to make a further investment bv exchanging for new Metrostyle Pianolas . The ordinary models so exchanged offer anyone a splendid and unique opportunity to obtain one at little cost . The prices vary , but all these instruments are in first class playing order . Write for particulars . Remember . —All piano-players are not PIANOLAS , 'flicname applies only to the particular instrument manufactured b y us .
