14 EDISON PHONOGRAPH MONTHLY. of the principal parts of the Agreement, to be used for framing or hanging up in the stores of our Dealers.] A PECULIAR PHONOGRAPH BELT. Cincinnati, O., June 29, 1903. Peculiar things sometimes happen in connection with repairs on Phonographs. We sold a Home Phonograph to a family in Kentucky some six or eight months ago, and they have been good customers since. The three daughters, who seem to have the instrument in their care, have purchased a number of records. The last time they had occasion to call on us they mentioned to the writer that their machine was not working particularly well ; that it would at times dis-cord. In endeavoring to locate the trouble, I inquired if the belt seemed to slip. One of the young ladies informed me that shortly after they had purchased the machine the belt was broken. Evidently they had put on a new belt of their own manufacture, and as they said this they looked from one to the other, and' seemed to be tickled. I didn't quite understand why until the machine came in for repair, when my attention was called to the belt used thereon. I am inclosing it herewith. The only question in my mind is which one of the young ladies it belonged to. Yours very truly, Ilsen & Co., Per C. W. Noyes. [The inclosure was a black elastic garter.] Carmel, Ind., June 27, 1903. In acknowledging the receipt of the list of suspended Dealers, would like to say that I congratulate you on the way yotr have of doing business, for it is so much easier selling anything when they are strictly one price.
