Gain Knowledge
Of the " innards " of a piano by a little reading.
You may have
been a dealer for many years, you may have been a tuner for a
like period, you may have played a little—maybe more; but is
it not well to get a little more practical knowledge?
Some*
thing to bank on—an authority on all matters relating to tun-
ing, repairing, toning and regulating, scientific instructions—
everything? "Written by that eminent authority, Daniel Spillane.
The cost is only a trifle—a dollar.
The book is illustrated,
cloth bound, over a hundred pages. It is called " Xhe Piano."
