Dinty {Continued from page 56) had caused them to be strapped to this fable. Over the table swung a massive knife, clutched in a dragon's teeth. In this room, the Chinese w-ife tolil the father and lover, Dorkh had imprisoned the white woman before he made good his departure. Even as they talked, then, Ruth was on the hideous table, her wide eyes watching, sanely or insanely, the descent of the nnirderous knife. She had held out, they knew then, against the Eurasian, and this, this vile death, was his revenge. The father lost control and hurled himself against the door. North tried his turn. "It is absolutely useless." he said. The Chinese wife nodded a dumb assent. In the background, Dinty, Chinkie and VVatermillions stood, rooted, their individual heads bristling, their mouths lonse and agape. Within that door the heart of their hearts was being tortured. In ihitwentieth century, that gently bred girl, tortured! Rutli . . . their Ruth . . . left by a Malay hall-breed to so lurid a death ! ' .Ml at once Dinty and Chinkie bent their heads together. Tlie older men were crying out to her now, to the victim within. They were trying to make sound carry some comfort, some sustenance to her. 'They loved her too much to be efficient. Dinty' sensed that. He knew . . . Once Doreen had had hemorrhage ... He hadn't been much good. W'atermillions and Chinkie were agreeing with him. It was tremendous! An in-;pired plan !

But I will gladly convince you of its accuracy by referring you to any number of my graduates in any part of the world. There isn't a State in the Union that doesn't contain a score or more skilled players of the piano or organ 'who nlititiurd tlifir entire training from nie by mail. I have far more students than were ever befori' iauL;ht by one man. Investigate by w rit ing for my 64-page free booklet , "How to Learn Piano or Organ." My way of teaching piano or organ is entirely different from all others. Out of fvery four hours of study, one hour i'^ sjieni entirely a^cay from the keyhoard — learning something about Harmony and The Laws of Music. This is rm awful shock to most teachers of the "old school," who still think that learning piano is solely a problem of "finger g\ ninastics." When you do go to the keyboard, you accomplish tii-iec as much, because you understand zchat yon iirc doing. Within four lessons I enable vou to play an interesting piece not only in the original key, but in all other keys as well. I niake use of every possible sciLntilic help — many of which are entirely unknown to the average teacher. My patented invention, the C(.)LOROTON'E, sweeps away playing difticultius ihat have troubled students for generalions. By its use. Transposition — usually n *'nigh;mare" to studi-nts — beconiLS easy and fascinating. With my fifth lesson I introduce another important and ixclusive invention, QUI N N-D EX. Quinn-Dex is a simpU-. hand-operated moving picture device, which enables you to see, right before your eyes, every movement of my hands at the keyboard. YoH actually see the fingers move. Instead of having to reproduci \our teacher's finger Tiiovements from MEMORY — which cannot be always accurate — you have the correct models before vou during every minute of practice. TheCOLOROTONEand QUINKDEX save you months and years of wasted effort. They can be obtained only from me. and there is nothing else, MM— y i^i anywhere, even remotely like them.
