EDISON PHONOGRAPH MONTHLY. HE GOES AFTER BUSINESS. Picton, Ont, Jan. 18, 1904. I have only had the privilege of selling Edison Phonographs in Picton since October 31, but handled them at West Lake for about four years. I keep two horses, and when I hear of a party who wants a Phonograph I just put one in the rig and call on him. I don't have. to bring it back. I find it pays to go to them and not wait for them to come to you. I have sold three machines in a day — not so bad for a small town. In regards to Suspended List, I would say, if a man can't sell the Edison goods without cutting prices he had better give it up to some one who can. I have no trouble. I bought a disk machine for the purpose of comparing, and I am something like Keely, I have no use for them. If I want a noise I will buy a drum. S. M. Brown. " NOTHING BUT THE BEST." Hallowell, Me., Jan. 12, 1904. We do not do a large business, but we endeavor to carry nothing but the fast, therefore we have in stock nothing but Edison Machines and Records. We occasionally sell a disc machine, but have noticed that whenever this happens the sale is made to some one who is looking for quantity and not quality. Was much^ impressed with the expression used by a lady in our store. In speaking of a disc machine which is on sale, at cut price, in this city, she said: "It certainly sounds like nothing human or mechanical that I have ever heard." We are doing some advertising and are taking the stand that the Edison goods are sold on their merits and that we do not have to "cut price" in order to make sales. Horace G. Turner.
