thice people lost their lives In the orig

crowded with dramatic situation", so
powerful to sway tho human emotions
nnd so full of the "meat" that makes
for a feature picture. Mr. linker kept
adding, first scenes, then reels, until,
when tho negative wns turned In, the
film story measured 7009 feet, with 2"0

Every piece has been personally selected in Italy last

The Commonest Mistakes Made in
Buying a Player-Piano are:
1 Buying a Player that has not passed the theory stage.
2 Buying a Player upon which you cannot express YOUR
OWN feelings as they are swayed by the subtle skill of the
composer.
LirciTirw
:
rLirll Jj
RPMOS
are not in any sense a theory or experiment. They represent years of
careful, scientific study, years of the hardest kind of work, years of
successful manufacture.
In support of this we point to the fact that there are
more Lester Player-Pianos in active every-day use in
Philadelphia than any other high-grade make.
Some players on the market today may sound pretty well to the
average ear when heard in the store. They may play fairly easy when
you first try them. But when you get them home oh, what a
difference!
We are manufacturers of the Lester Player-Piano. We
are right here to back it up, Just as we have been for 45
years. Our absolute money-back guarantee goes with every
Lester. It MUST give satisfaction. That's why it will pay
you to buy from the manufacturer.
Another reason is that by selling direct from our great factories
to you we cut out all "in-between" profits of jobber and agent and you
can, therefore, get a standard, high-grade instrument as easily as you
can one of the inferior makes. Terms absolutely confidential, too. Let us
show you how easy it is to own a Lester.
