i f ; k Sale of Autopianos Enables People With Moderate Incomes to Enjoy the Finest Music and to Produce It Themselves There is an old saw which runs} to the effect that “if wishes were horses besgars would ride.” — It seems as though modern science and ingenuity make it possible for the average men and women to perform miracles. At the recital given by Olga Steed last Tuesday night the writer heard a well known business man say, “I would give ten years of my life to be able to play like that.” Unfortunately this man did not know that, with one of the newly improved Autopianos he would be able to duplicate in his own home the playing of this, or any other great artist. GREAT OPPORTUNITY OPENED. It may interest the readers of this paper to know that the sale now in progress at Eilers Music House gives Seattle an opportunity to se cure one of these latest improved Autopianos for about one-half the prices these wonderful players were formerly sold for, The big music store at Third and University is now selling the balance of a big shipment at reduced prices. The opportunity to get a player at a great saving is well worth while. Autopianos that are made to sell and do sell everywhere in America for $650 are now marked down to $485. And it should be borne in! mind that these instruments will do| all that the highest priced player can do. Bankers, capitalists and the wealthy men of America have! paid as high as $1,200 for player) WISHES COME But Carrigan and Doris at Reduced Prices} Are Real Peeved, BY FRED L. BOALT.
