As a matter of fact the reverse of this impression is the truth. The Steinway is the one piano that music lovers of moderate means can best afford to purchase, because it is the most lasting piano ever produced. Like a diamond, the Steinway has a permanent commercial value. Should the owner's circumstances compel a sale, it will always command a very much higher price than any other make of piano. The Steinway is therefore the best and most economical piano investment. The continued enjoyment derived from its possession is altogether out of proportion to the price you pay. Not only is its purchase evidence of good business judgment, but the mere fact of possessing a Steinway puts the seal of supreme approval on the musical taste of the owner. ¶ Our newest model, the Vertegrand, at $500, is the best piano value in the world to-day, and a single examina tion will convince intending purchasers of this fact. This piano is obtainable from any authorized Steinway dealer at the above price, with cost of freight and handling added.

Our catalogue, describing GRAND and Mathushek Piano Mfg. Co., New Haven, Ct. P EOPLE LEAVING town for the summer, who wish to get full benefit of their vacations, should not forget the music. Music is the one in-door recreation in which every one, of whatever temperament, and whether fresh or fatigued, can take an interest. It offers means to fill in many gaps when other forms of amusement are impossible, and is a tonic and refreshment that nothing else can take the place of. Evenings after dark; rainy mornings and afternoons; resting spells after too strenuous exercise-these pass more quickly to the tune of good music-produced by the Pianola. It is a performer capable beyond any virtuoso, does not get tired, and will create an atmosphere of musical life and enjoyment anywhere there is a piano-seashore-cottage, camp, yacht, cabin in the woods, country-home, or mountain-resort. Vocal accompaniments, real dance-compelling dance-music, instrumental selections that have delighted the music-lovers of all ages, song-hits, operatic potpourris and what not-of these the Pianola has an inexhaustible repertory at the command of any one who cares to play. Those who have in previous years experienced the lack of satisfactory music at some remote resort will hardly need this argument. Its purpose, however, is to emphasize the easy portability of the Pianola and the perfection of the Aeolian Circulating Library Service deliveries being made through every express office in the United States. All Pianolas are equipped with the Metrostyle, a feature not only endorsed but pronounced essential by the greatest musicians and possessed by no other player. It enables even a novice to play the most difficult compositions with true musicianly feeling and expression-to play them exactly as the composer intended them to be played. No other pianoplayer possesses any feature even remotely resembling the Metrostyle.
