A Musical Education for Half-a-crown. 
oO. 
The above heading will, of course, appear to most people as the height of absurdity ; yet the a r »@ aN pare) oe 
absurdity is more apparent than real. It goes without saying thata finished musical education in a | \ J i a | i AM f 
the regular course cannot be had for half-a-crown, or even with several hundred additional half- | “~ “*= “= “4 4& ae ; 
crowns; but can it be truthfully said that the person with a sufficient knowledge of music to play 
accompaniments on the piano .0r organ, to all the popular songs of the day, has no musical educa- 
Assuredly not. A musical education, sufficient to enable one to pl 
home frequently, gets and gives more pleasure from the modest accomplishment than does many on 
tion? 
whose education large sums have been expended. 
To the more modest musical education the above heading applies. Such an education “The 
Australian Gardener” is now offering its music-loving readers for half-a-crown, believing that it is 
the greatest benefit we can give our subscribers. 
This ready-made musical education consists of Pratt’s Chart of Chords for the piano and organ, 
which is the nearest approach to the ready-made knowledge of music yet attained by science. 
It is a short cut to harmony, and is to music what the multiplication table is to arithmetic, a 
quick method of jearning to play the piano or organ without a teacher. 
With this chart any one can, with but a aa 
without difficulty, brilliant accompaniments to an y song ever written. 
is endersed by teachers and musicians everywhere, 
This chart is the practical result of years of study by Charles E. Pratt, the noted American com- 
poser and musician, whose compositions have world-wide popularity, and a larger sale thad those of 
any other American or European composer, 
Believing that the educational value of this Chart cannot be over-estimated, “ The Australian 
Gardener” has arranged with the publishers to supply. Pratt’s Chart of Chords (published at 5s.) to 
its readers at the reduced price of 2s. 6d. each, with 2d. added for [postage, 
Chart of Chords the publishers have kindly agreed to send without ex 
posers, 
Every home that has a piano or organ, especially where there are children, should have Pratt’s 
Chart of Chords. 
This offer is made for a short time only, and.“ The Australian Gardener” readers should avail 
themselves of it without delay.

is a complete self instructor, enabling any one to play the piano or organ at sight, and to play,

musician as well as the beginner, embracing nearly every major and minor chord used in music ; and
