20 THE TALKING MACHINE WORLD January 15, 1925 A STATEMENT VER a decade ago the Makers of HONEST QUAKER Main Springs originated the novel manner of packing this merchandise in individual dnst-and-rnst-proof containers. A little later this unique arrangement was improved by the use of a beautiful label on the carton — on which was printed the specifications of the main spring — also the motors in which it should be used. These arrangements were protected by patent and copyright in every manner possible. The music merchant — as well as the repairman — realized at once the many advantages of our packing arrangement. It was possible to choose the correct size of phonograph main springs without any experience in the game. It prevented the accumulation of rust on the main spring and really systematized the usually "up-set" repair shop. Our legal protection prevented infringement but really encouraged imitation. Today innumerable concerns pack their merchandise in individual cartons — although many are extremely careful to avoid our copyrighted label. In order, therefore, to assure absolute protection on our merchandise you will find the initials HQ stamped plainly near the end of every Genuine HONEST QUAKER Main Spring. The initials HQ being the first letters of the trade-mark HONEST QUAKER properly registered in the United States and Canada's Patent Office is an absolute guarantee that the merchandise is Genuine. We can now protect the merchant who uses our merchandise and prevent substitution. Insist on receiving HONEST QUAKER Main Springs in individual cartons bearing our trademark— also examine the contents and look for the HQ on the end. This won't be copied or even imitated. H. A.
