THE above heading will, of coui- c c, appear to mo&fc people as the he'ghfc of absurdity, jet the absurdity ia more apparent thau real. It goes without saying that a finis-hed musical education in the icgular courso cannot bo had fora crown, or even wita several hundred additional crowns, but cau ifc be truthfully said that the person with a fcuffioienfc knowledge of music to ploy accompauiments readily oh the piano or organ to all the popular am! standard soDgs of the day baa no musical ecuc&Hou ? Assuredly nob. A mufcical education sufficient to enable one to play correctly accompaniments to the songs SuDg in the homo frequently gets and gives mote pleasure from th«s modest accomplishment than dots the acquirements of miir.y on whose education large smah Lava been expended. To the rcore mode&t musical education tbe above heading applies. Such au educition the Otago Witness is now enabled to iffer its music-loving readers for half r trowa, the publishers having recently decided to reduce tho price to that sum. This ready-made musical education consiatn of Pralt'o Charb of Chords for the Piano and Organ, which is tbe nearest approach to a ready-made knowledge of mufie jet attained by Bcienee. It 13 a short cut to harmony, and is to music what the multiplication table is to arithmetic — a qu;ck method of learning to play the Piano or Organ without a teacher. With this chart snyone c*n with but a small amount cf practice become an expert accompanist. Ifc ia complete edf-instructor, enabling anyone to play without difficulty accompaniments (o any sorg ever written. It is valuable <o the advanced musici&n as wvll as the beginner, embracing ir erly every major and minor chord uccd in music, &nd 'v endorsed by teachers atd musiciaus everywhere. This cbarfc is the pT&etical reaulfc of years of study by Charles B. Pratt, the noted American cempocer and musician, whose compositions have world-wide popularity and a larger sale tban those of any other American or Euiopean compoßer. Believing that the educational and pleasuregiving value of this Chart is very great, the Otago Wiinfss has arranged with the publishers to supply PraU'a Chart of Chords to ita readers at Half a Ckown each, snd in addition to the Chart of Chordt. the publishers have kindly agreed to send without extra charge a copy of the Book of SoDgs, containing 184scngs, with words and music. Many of these gongs are old-time favourites long out of print that can be obtained in no other way. Every home that has a piano or organ, especially where there are children, ufcould Lave Pratt'a Chart of Chords.
