precision and perfect effect.

It has twenty-two reeds, plays in three keys, and all the parts of most difficult Music:

It is the invention of 11. B. Horton, who was also the inventor of the first organettes, and this last effort is the result of years of constant attention to the study of this kind of instrument, and in simplicity, accuracy, volume of tone and compactness, is the acme of mechanical and

artistic success,

On it, a child can correctly play, without instruction, any of its Music, which at present consists of over 300 selections from Hymns, Oratorios, Operas, Waltzes, Polkas, Marches, Popular Songs, etc. It is best adapted to the kind of Music which suits an organ best, in which chords predominate, but also has wonderful power in executing very lively pieces.

It is entirely well adapted for country churches, Sunday schools, the family circle, and also for dancing.

For use in seranading it is perfect, aa it can be carried under the arm.

The Music is compact and far cheaper than that which is made for any organette, THE AUTOPHONE
