They Cannot be Equalled In the Trade for the Following Vn ansnerable Reasons. 1. They have the 88-note range, or the entire keyboard, each one of the 88 pneumatic fingers strik ing the piano key. The Apollo is the only player piano in the world that has this range. All others have only 65 notes, or 5 octaves. Would you be satisfied with a 6 octave piano when the standard range is 7 1-S octaves? If not, you will naturally prefer the standard player 'with 88 notes. 2. Another important feature in Apollo, player construction is the effective transposing mouthpiece, which represents fully 95 per cent of player piano value. By Its use the key can be changed to accom pany any voice or musical instru ment. This one feature gives the Apollo player a great additional value in the musical home. The transposing mouthpiece also pre vents the annoyance caused by the shrinking and swelling of the music rolls, which Is oftentimes a source of great annoyance, and interferes with the fHper execution of the score. No other player in the world has this transposing mouthpiece. These important features give the Apollo an unrivalled advantage, and make it The Player for the Musical Home. None other can touch it in superior features. IT IS PEERLESS. For sale by the Hovenden-Soule Piano Co. 372-874 Morrison Street, Cor. Went Park.
