Ever since the world began, man has been contriving instruments for the reproduction of sound. Nature’s sweetest music—the sighing of wind through reeds, the laughter of a brook, or the lapping of the waves, these have caused men. to stop and ponder. We see the result in such instruments as the violin, the harp, the flute. But most effective of all perhaps, is the piano. Imprisoned within its four walls hide the magicworks which breathe forth enchanting harmonies. Just to run one’s fingers along the keys of an instrument such as the Broadwood, the Ronisch, the Lipp or the Steinway, is a supreme delight. The Dresden Piano Co., Ltd., Wellington, who are agents for these, and indeed every instrument of high repute, will gladly tell you about their easy time-payment system, which makes it simple for everyone to possess this king of instruments—the piano. North Island Manager: M. J. BrQokes.
