Business Notices. FOR HALF~A_CROWN. SHOULD BE IN ALL HOMES WHERE THERE IS A PIANO OR OEGAN. pinHE above heading will, of course, appear to JL mofet people as the height; of absurdity, jeb the absurdity is mere apparent than real. Ifc goes without saying, that & finished musical education in the regular course cannot be had for a crown, or even with several hundred additional crowns, but can it be truthfully said that the person with a sufficient knowledge of music to play accompaniments readily on the piano or organ to all the popular and standard songs of the day has no musical education ? Assuredly not. A musical education sufficient to enable one to play correctly accompaniments to the songs sung in the home frequently gets and gives more pleasure from the modest accomplishment than does the acquirements of many on whose education large bucqs have been expended. To the more modest musical education the above heading applies. Such an edugation the Otago Witness is now enabled to offer its anisic-loving readers for half a crown, the publishers having recently decided to reduce the price to thafc sum. This ready-made musical education consists of Pratt's Charb of Chords for the Piano and Organ, which is the nearest approach to a ready-made knowledge of music yet attained by science. It is a short cufc to harmony, and is to music What the multiplication table is to arithmetic — a quick method of learning lo play the Piano or Organ without a teacher. With this chart anyone can with but a small amount of practice become an expert accompanist;. It is complete stlf-instructor, enabling anyone to play without difficulty accompaniments to any socg ever written. It is valuable to the advanced musician rs well as the b€giQDfcr, embracing nearly every major and minor chord used in music, and i 3 endorsed by teachers and musicians everywhere. This chart is the practical result of yeai'B ot stndy by Charles E. Pratt, the noted American cemposer and musician, wifese compositions have world-wide popularity and a larger ?ale than those of any other American or European composer. Btlieving that the educational and pleasuregiving value of this Cbarb is very great, the Otago Witness Las arranged with the publishers to supply Pratt's Chart of Chords to its readers at Half a Ceown each, and in addition to the Chart of Chorda the publishers have kindly agreed to* send without extra charge ! a copy of the Book of Songs, containing 184 songs, with words and music. Many of these songs are old-fcime favourites long out of print • that can be obtained in no other way. Every home thafc has a piano or organ, especially where there are children, should have Pratfc's Cbart of Chords. j Address, with postal notes to value of 2s 6d, with l£d for postage, Publishers Otago WitHess, IJunedin. <». has, in my hands, giyen invariably satisfaefcory results.
