"I would a thousand times rather bo a

move the Metrostylc lever to the left to keep the slow, tlow
languor of it. Now 1 move it to the right, and all the charming,
humorous playfulness of this little gem lilts briskly nlong. Here the
Themodist, without thought from me, brings the delicate melody out,
not loudly but with just the proper emphasis. Here the Sustaining
Pedal device gives it the lovely singing tone. The instrument sounds
human so exquisite is its response. There is nothing of the hard, pre
cise quality of the ordinary player piano. It is reflecting absolutely the
subtlest color of my music feeling. It U teaching v:e to interpret. It
is helping me to gain musical effects too complex for me to think about.
"And my practice on the Pianola lias been so short and so enjoyable
and easy. And I have the satisfaction of producing music which is real;
of accomplishing something of actually playing so thut my wife and
friends love to listen to me."

Enables you
Have you ever stopped to wonder why
the Pianola has become so well known in
such a short time? Perhaps you do not
know that in every civilized country in tho
world it is just as popular as it is here.
It is because the Pianola is a really
marvelous instrument with which you can
not only play the piano but play it with
truly musical feeling. This is the impor
tant part, and this is why the Pianola has
been endorsed by every great musician of
the world, and why it differs so immeasur
ably from all the so-called player-pianos
which try to imitate it.
