Useful
New Invention
Enables Anyone to Play
Piano or Organ With
out Lessons

A Detroit musician has invented a
wonderful new system which enables
any person or little child to learn to
play the piano or organ in one even
ing. Even though you know abso-
lutely nothing about music or have
never touched piano or organ, you
can now learn to play in an hour or
two. People who do not know one
note from another are able to play
their favorite music, with this method
without any assistance whatever from
anyone.
This new system is called the
Numeral Method. We have secured
the sole agency from the inventor,
and, as we are desirous of at once
making it known in every locality,
we are making the following special
free trial and half-price offer to
everyone.
You are not asked to send any
money until you have tried and arc
satisfied with the new method. We
are willing to send it to you on free
trial, and you will not have to pay
one cent unless you desire to keep it.
There are no express charges to be
paid, as everything will be sent by
mail. Simply write us letter or
postcard saying: please send me the
Numeral Method on free trial" If
you are satisfied after trying it, the
Method and fifty different pieces of
sheet music will cost you only SIS,
although the regular price of these
is $40. You should not delay writing,
as we shall not continue this
special half-price offer indefinitely.
Later on, the Method and fifty pieces
of music will be sold at the regular
price. Address Numeral Method
