Edison P h o n o g ra p h s an d R eco rd s are fast coming to the
front. They are driving every other talking machine
and record out of the market. Why ? Because they
have stood the test for years. A number of other talk­
ing machines have been compelled to quit business be­
cause either the machine or the records did not give
satisfaction. A good feature with the Edison machine is
that the records never wear out. And another good
feature is that the E dison machine and records are sold
at the same price the world over. Whether it is in New
Yotk, Chicago, Portland or Forest Grove, the prices are
are all the same. Of course a number of people are send­
ing east for them, having been led to believe, by some
fa k e a d v ertism en ts, that they could get them cheaper by
sending east, but if they investigate they find out they
have paid exactly the same pi ice that they could have
bought the machine of the home dealer for, and perhaps
$5 or $6 express charges extra. Besides this they get a
machine that is not adjusted and they do not have a
chance to hear the records. E very E dison T a lk in g M a­
ch in e that is sold at S ra eh r’s B a za a r has been set up, ad­
justed and tried before it goes out. A full line of records
are always kept in stock. The E dison T a lk in g M a ch in es
are sold on e a sy m on th ly p a y m en ts and a b so lu te ly g u a r­
a n tee d to give satisfaction.
