The Edison phonograph monthly (Mar-Dec 1907)

22 Edison Phonograh Monthly, Nov., 1907 A Kentucky Dealer's Advertisement A. Scott Haynes, a. Dealer at Owensboro, Ky., published the following advertisement in a local paper recently: THE EDISON. She sits in deep silence the whole day through, Her cheeks are red lined by the scalding dew, That flowed from her lashes since morning's gray dawn — Rejoiced is her soul that the day is gone. There is nothing in daylight to cheer her poor mind, To all of Life's pleasures she almost is blin-1. For trouble and sorrow and harrowing care Had claimed her a victim of Melancholy's snare. When sudden and silent she caught the sweet spell Of music's enchantment, how strangely to tell. But her heart was now lightened, her cares had all fled And soon fell asleep on her little low bed. "How sweet are the strains of Iola tonight" Her eyes were then closed in slumber so tight, And never once opened till daylight's bright dawn But she never could tell where the music had gone. A psyche then told her the musical dream — Said Iola was a record on an Edison machine. * * * * * Mr. Haynes is the agent, obliging and kind, His goods are the latest, please keep this in mind. Two hundred and seven east Second's his place, Abreast with the times he always keeps pace. * * * * * He was born in Kentucky, the grandest old state, That e'er was created, I here must relate. Thirty years in our city, a record that's clean As the best of Kentucky's good children, I mean. You give him a call you'll never regret, And receive for your money the best it can get. The article is preceded by a half-tone of a view taken in Mr. Haynes' store, in all producing a most commendable advertisement. Dealers' Advertising Grinnell Bros., Edison Jobbers at Detroit, Mich., are publishing a series of advertisements in their local newspapers, exploiting the new equipment in a manner most commendable. The enthusiasm displayed in the copy, the clever way in which the new list prices are announced, and their free trial offer, combine to produce ads which as business producers are hard to equal. Ricker & Son, of Emporia, Kans., devote a half page in the Emporia Gazette to the exploiting of Phonographs and Records, and pay particular attention to the musical education acquired through the purchase of one of our instruments.
