The Billboard Fi E 4 E4 t ae : It’s Just a Question OF KNOWING HOW TO GET IT. Mills Coin Operated Machines have made money for our customers for fifteen years, because we are right up to the minute with new machines that always get the money. Just remember, it’s the new features that pay. We turn out from two to four new machines every month. One that will be ready in sixty to ninety days is the Mills Automatic Violin, a marvel of mechanical ingenuity—plays with the skill of an accomplished musician, and, mind you, with an orchestral effect. This violin is bound to get a big play in all public places. Arcades, Parks, Fairs, Carnivals CAN GREATLY INCREASE THEIR RECEIPTS BY KEEPING IN TOUCH WITH US. Any Mills Machine will pay for itself in ninety days or less. We can furnish testimonials to that effect. An Arcade costing from $2,000 to $3,000, and equipped with Mills new machines, will pay for itself in a month or two; whereas an Arcade with old style or second-hand machines is doomed to failure. We supply complete Arcade outfits, equip Parks, Summer Resorts, and all public places with up-to-the-minute money-making automatic machines. Write us, stating the kind of place you have, and we will help you make a selection if you do not know just what you want. . Mills Illustrated Song Machine.
