Name I'll teach you in quarter the usual time because I make your study interesting. I use scientific, time-saving methods which cannot be obtained elsewhere because they are patented. That my system is successful is proved by the fact that in 1891, when I first introduced my original method, I was nearly laughed out of business— yet, now I have far more students than were ever before taught by one man. Could I have overcome this old-fogey prejudice and enlarged my school every year for over twentv-five years unless my teaching possessed REAL MERIT? I'll teach you piano in quarter the usual time and at 'quarter the usual expense. To persons who have not previously heard of my method this may seem a pretty bold statement. Rut I have scores of students and graduates in every state in the 1'nion who will gladly testify to its accuracy. Investigate without cost by sending for my free booklet. "How to Learn Piano or Organ." My way of teaching piano or organ is entirely different from all others. Out of every four hours of study, one hour is spent entirely aicay from the keyboard — learning something about Harmony and The Laws of Music. This is an awful shock to most teachers of the "old school." who still think that learning piano is solely a problem of "finger gymnastics." When you do go to the keyboard, you accomplish tuice as much, because you understand what you are doing. Studying this way is a pleasure. Within four lessons I enable you to play an interesting piece not only in the original key. but in all other keys as well. I make use of every possible scientific help — many of which are entirely unknown to the average teacher. My patented invention, the COLOKOTONE. sweeps away playing difficulties that have troubled students for generations. By its use, Transposition— usually a "nightmare" to students — becomes easy and fascinating. With my fifth lesson I introduce another important and exclusive invention, QTTINN-DEX. Quinn-Dex is a simple, hand-operated movingpicture device, which enables you to see. right before your ey< Add reus "very movement of my hands at the keyboard. You actually see the fingers move. Instead of having to reproduce your teacher's finger movements from MEMORY — which cannot lie always accurate — you have the correct models before you during every minute of practice. The COLOROTONE and QUINNDEX save you months and years of wasted effort. They can be obtained only from me, and there is nothing else, anywhere, even remotely like them.
