The latest triumph of the art of piano making is the Waters Autola Player-Piano. This wonderful instrument is the Waters Upright Piano into which is built a marvelous mechanism which transforms the piano into a living instrument that any one can play. Notwithstanding the dominating superiority of the Waters Piano and the Waters Autola Player-Piano, they are priced very moder- ately and may be bought on convenient terms.
