Courtesy of the University of Kentucky Fine Arts Library, I give you the complete "Melodious Harmonies," a general-purpose "only piano book you'll ever need" from 1894 containing simplified piano transcriptions of classical and folk pieces alongside original compositions in a popular style. The bulk of the arranging was done by one Charles D. Blake, who also contributed a good number of compositions to the book; he was assisted by S. G. Cook, who added a few of his own. The collection was published in Boston by F. Trifet.

The file is exceedingly large, so I've given a Mega link to it below.
