Vamping Board
NO TEACHER NEEDED SURPRISINGLY SIMPLE SYSTEM
ANYONE CAN PLAY WITH THE AID OF THIS BOARD
To obtain a mastery of the piano in the ordinary way involves considerable
expense and many years of arduous study. The pupil, under the guidance of
a highly paid teacher, commences when young to practice scales and exercises,
and is compelled to devote several hours every day to attain facility of manip¬
ulation. It is impossible for grown-up persons to follow such a method. They
cannot spare sufficient time to properly master the intricacies of the notation,
and thus many persons naturally gifted with great musical taste have been
obliged to rest content with listening while others played, when they might
easily acquire a better command of the instrument themselves.
For persons who have neglected their Musical Education, we have a Piano
Vamping Board, with the aid of which you can, after a little practice, vamp to
Songs, Ballads, Waltzes, Rag Time, etc., etc. The Board is printed in several
colors and is placed upright over the piano keys. Each chord is printed in a
distinctive color, so that after a little practice, the chords become firmly fixed
in the mind, and the Board can be dispensed with entirely. We consider it a
great aid to piano playing. Customers write us that, although possessing no
knowledge of music, they have become proficient accompanists in a very short

THE POCKET PLAYER PIANO


Mouth Organ that Plays with a Music Roll
ANYONE CAN PLAY IT WITHOUT PRACTICE
A Wide Selection of Rolls to Choose From
A VERITABLE POCKET SIZE JAZZ BAND!
Y”> OLMONICA is an
^automatic har¬
monica that plays
a music roll just like a
player piano. It is a
whole brass band all in
one—the biggest sensa¬
tion of the music world
in the last few years.
Anyone can play it, for
all you have to do is to
insert a roll, and turn
the handle while you
blow. That is all there
is to it. Nothing could be simpler. Any child who can do these two
simple things can play a Rolmonica. It is a veritable pocket-size
Jazz-band, combining the principles of the harmonica and the player
piano. It is an instrument of a thousand melodies, it plays the popu¬
lar airs of the past, as well as the latest Broadway hits. There are
hundreds of rolls to select from, and new ones are added every month.
The Rolmonica has a very simple mechanism, yet so strongly built
that it may be entrusted without hesitation to children. The volume
can be regulated by the user. When sounding at its full power repro¬
ducing a band performance, it'can be almost deafening in the strength
of its tones, yet it will deliver with perfect clearness a pianissimo
passage in an instrumental solo. It is an unfailing source of amuse¬
ment, as it will give you a complete evening’s entertainment. You
can delight your friends for hours, and play tune after tune simply
by changing the roll as fast as the other one is done. It is small in size fitting
any pocket, but it is mighty in its finger-tingling, toe-tickling tune power. Not
e with each Rolmonica, and
partial list of Rolls is given
and new Rolls will be added each month as so

THE NEW SOLAR TELESCOPE


Magnifies 25 Diameters. Objects 25 Miles Away
Appear to be Only 1 Mile Away.

With Adjustable Solar Eyepiece


For Astronomical Observations
A Telescope Worth $20 tor only $9.9$

This is a large and powerful instrument specially imported by us,


and made by a world famous manufacturer of telescopes and high
grade optical instruments. It is exceptionally well made and of the
highest possible grade throughout. Please do not compare or confuse
this Telescope with cheaper instruments that are sold, that are fitted
with fewer lenses of inferior quality and lower magnifying power.
The SOLAR TELESCOPE measures 19 inches when closed, without
the extension tube, and 29x/2 inches extended, with the extension tube.
The telescope is made of solid brass, chromium plated, the body cov¬
ered with black morocco grain leather. A separate and special eye¬
piece takes the place of the regular eye-piece when it is desired to study the
heavenly bodies. This astronomical or solar eye-piece has twice the magnify¬
ing power of the regular or terrestrial eye-piece that is used for land and sea
observations. For example, the telescope WITHOUT the astronomical eye¬
piece has a magnifying power of 25 DIAMETERS, which means that it mag¬
nifies objects twenty-five times, bringing them to l/25th of the actual distance.
Special Astronomical Eyepiece Magnifies 50 Dianeters
However, when the interchangeable ASTRONOMICAli eye-piece is used,
its power is EXACTLY DOUBLE, and you then have a magnifying power of
50 DIAMETERS, enabling you to make minute studies of the stars, the sun
and other heavenly bodies. With the aid of this special eye-piece, you will be
enabled to observe Eclipses of the Sun and Moon, examine the very Interesting
and mysterious Sun Spots, and make other intensely interesting and fascinating
astronomical observations, besides having a powerful telescope for use on land
its use greatly enhances its value. Tourists, residents at the seaside, farmers
and others able to enjoy wide and extended views should have this excellent

Beautifully Printed—250 Pages.
Weight Under Half Ounce. Size lxl % Inches.
Price Only 15 Cents Each
Or Only 50 Cents in Leather Binding, With Gold Edges and Gold Stamping
T HE Midget is a perfect gem, a work of art both of
the printer and the bookbinder. It is about the size
of a postage stamp and contains TWO HUNDRED
PAGES of the NEW TESTAMENT. The entire book has
been reproduced from the original of the University Press
by special permission. The reproduction of the specimen
page shows the extraordinarily minute size of the text,
but of course it is impossible to print anything like the)
clearness as in the book itself, that is printed on a special
paper after special preparations have been made for a)
work of this kind. You must see this Bible to appreciate
it. This little Bible is a wonder, for, though so small and
compact, it is perfectly readable, although those with
poor eyes may find it necessary to seek the aid of a mag¬
nifying glass. Measuring about 1x1% inches, it can readily
be carried in your smallest pocket, in a lady’s purse, etc., and the Bible is
thought by many to bring Good Luck to the owner.

C RYSTAL Gazing, or “scrying” as it is often called, is not a new invention
nor is it a fad for foretelling the future or development of the mental pow¬
ers for it dates back almost to the scriptial account of the creation of man. It is
generally assumed that crystal gazing had its origin in Egypt. A large
number of beautiful crystals were found in the ruins of the old temple of
Hathor in Upper Dendara, Egypt, and historians and scientists tell us that
this temple was in existence six thousand years before the Christian era. We
can trace this and other methods of obtaining hallucinatory pictures back to
the Middle Ages. It is interesting to note the universal use of the crystal all
through the past centuries and to note its great popularity today. Crystal
gazing achieved great popularity in the British Isles during the Fourteenth
Century, and has maintained that popularity to this very day. In Japan it is
claimed that every home has its crystal which is consulted on all subjects of

A Real Telephone—Carries the Voice Perfectly
NOTHING TO GET OUT OF ORDER
Requires No Skill or Knowledge
THOUGH this is merely a very clever toy, it is quite as serviceable for short
distances as the most elaborate Telephone apparatus made, and it is much less
liable to get out of order or to need adjustment; in fact it cannot be rendered
inefficient unless it is so very roughly used. There is no troublesome battery nor
any necessity for careful fixing; it will function perfectly 100 feet or 1,000 feet.
It is very interesting and amusing, and it can be put to practical use from one
room to another, up or down stairs, around corners and through closed doors.
Works marvelously indoors or outdoors. The patented sounding discs transmit
and receive the voice perfectly, making it a really practical talking toy
telephone. Each set consists of two phones for two-way communication, trans¬
mission cord and full printed instructions. The phones measure six inches high,
are of the standard desk type, strong and substantially made, and brightly
colored. They are quite simple yet wonderfully effective.
