4 THE TALKING MACHINE WORLD. TWENTIETH "HO CENTURY ]VI A Wonderful New Graphophone NOW ON THE MARKET A MARVELOUS INSTRUMENT npHE demand for a Graphophone embodying the principles of the "Twentieth ^ Century " but smaller in size than the " Premier " and particularly adapted to the home and small halls, has resulted in the bringing forth, by the Columbia Phonograph Company, of a new machine known as the Twentieth Centviry "HOME." We present a picture of it below. This new type of machine sells, "without horn, for $75 and is, in every respect, a thoroughly first class instrument. It has the same essential features that have made the Twentieth Century "Premier" famous. TWENTIETH CENTVRY " HOME" GRAPHOPHONE (TYPE BM) Mounted in a Mahogany Cabinet of great beauty and high finish and equipped with a strong motor, the Twenlieth Century HOME" LEAVES NOTHING TO BE DESIRED Uses the regular Cylinder Records — all makes — as well as the new Columbia Twentieth Century Cylinders, half a foot long: 50 cents each. While the VOLUME of tone from records played on the new machine is somewhat less than when they are reproduced on the Twentieth Century "Premier," the QUALITY is full. Measured by ordinary cylinder machines, the Twentieth Centviry "HOME" GRAPHOPHONE is so far in advance of them as to leave no room for comparisons.
