Edison for you.

THE DIAMOND AND THE DISC
Changeable needles or points are not used. Thd reproducing point which
traverses the record is a genuine diamond, permanently mounted; it is never
changed and never wears.
RECORDS
The records are in the' disc form, of a material which is new in chemistry
and of so great hardness as to permit the reproduction of the myriad of faint
overtones which alone give quality to music.1 These records are truly inde
structible. The method of recording these new Edison records is also new,
and the processes of manufacture are unique j and new in every detail.
SPECIAL MOTOR
The mechanism of this new instrument Is powerful, and is governed as
accurately as a chronometer in order that the pitch shall at all times be ac
curately reproduced.

ture owned by J. M. Tracy and which
is to be used as a livery stable by

sub-contractor.
This building is 70 x 105 feet and
is of two stories, and is modern thru
out. The lower floor is to be used as
a livery stable, having 30 stalls. As
the floors are of concrete in each stall
there is a double flooring, thus allow
ing the horses wooden floors, and
having a concrete foundation. The
rear of the second story will be us
ed as a storing room for the feed,
while it is the intention of Mr. Tracy
to have that part fronting Main
street, arranged for apartments.
These will be used in connection with
another building to be erected in the
near future on the north side of the

and used for house-keeping rooms.
