EDISON PHONOGRAPH MONTHLY. That it was a benefit to us is proven by the fact that we have received thus far this month almost double the number of orders through the mail than we usually have heretofore for the new Records, and that it is appreciated by our customers is assured, for we have already received several letters commending the "Pointers," one of which we give copy of. J. M. B., of St. Johns, N. B., writes under date of September 3 : "I am in receipt each month of the list of new Records, and appreciate very much your kindness. The 'Pointers' accompanying the list this month is something very timely and is a great help to parties at a distance who are unable to hear Records before buying. I hope you will issue these pointers every month." We migh add that we .are so well pleased with the results obtained by the sending out of these "Pointers," that we shall continue to supply them to our customers, and therefore trust that the "Comments" on the new Records in the Monthly will not be discontinued. The Boston Cycle & Sundry Company issued another unique novelty in September to furnish their Dealers with the list of new Recoids for October and solicit their orders. It was a mailing card printed in colors on the reverse side. This showed a scene on a dock at the river with a colored stevedore pushing a truck upon which is loaded a wooden case. This case is attached to a card, and when opened discloses the October list with the usual blank space for the Dealer's order. It was even more attractive than the one gotten out by this house to exploit the September Records. The article on "Moulded Records for Phonographs," published in the American Machinist on July 9. was re-printed in the English Mechanic and World of Science on August 14, the illustrations also being reproduced in the same size as they appeared in the American Machinist.
