A MUSICAL EDUCATIO FOR HALF-A-CROWN. The above heading will, of coarse, appear to most people aa the height of absurdity ; yet the absurdity is more apparent than real. It goes without sayign that a finished musical edncation in the regular course cannot be had for half-a-crown, or even wtih several hundred additional hair crowns ; but can it be truthfully said that the person with a sufficient know-ledg-e of music to play accompaniments on the piano or organ, to all the popular, songs of the day. bis no musical education ? Asiuredly not. A musical education sufficient to enable one to play accompaniments to the songs sung in the home frequently gets and gives more pleasure from the modest accomp&nmenfc than does many on whose education large sums have been expended. To the more modest musical education the above heading applies. Such an education the ' N.Z.Tmblet is now offering its m usic-loving readers or balf-a-crown, believing that it is the greatest benefit we can give to onr subscribers. This ready-made musical education consists of Pratt's Chart of Chords for the piano and organ, 'which is the nearest approach to the ready-made knowledge of music yet attained by science. It is a short cut to harmony, and it is to music what the multiplication table is to arithmtetic, a. quick method of learning to play the piano or organ without a teacher. With this Chart anyone can, with but a small amount of practice, become an expert pianist. It is a complete self-instructor, enabling anyone to play the piano or organ at sight, and to play without difficulty brilliant accompaniments to any song ever written. It is valuable to the advanced musician as well as to tlic beginner, embracing nearly evory major and minor chord used in music, and is endorsed by teachers and musicians everywhere. This hait is the practical result of years of study by Charles B Pratt, the noted American composer and musician, whose compositions have world-wide popularity, and a. larger sale than those of any other American or European composer. Believing that the educational value of this Chart caunot be over-estimated, the 'N.Z.Tabiet' has arranged with the publishers to supply Pratt's Chart of Chords (published at is) to its readers at the reduced price or 2s 6d each, with 2d added for postage, and in addition to the Chart of Chords, the publishers have kindly agreed to send, without extra charge, a copy of the Coronation Musical Folio, containing 48 pages of sheet music, vocal and instrumental, by popular composers. Payment to be made by P. 0.0 or Postal Note ; but if stamps are sent 2d extra must be added for exchange, in addition to the postage. Every home that has a piano or organ, especially where there are children, should have Pratt's Chart of Cords. This offer is made for a shortj'time only, and ' N.Z. Tablet' readers should avail themselves of it without delay; and, in writing, always mention the *N.Z« Tablet.' Address : ANGLO-AMERICAN PUBLISHING CO., 458 George Street, Sydney, N.S.W.
