HARDLY COMPLIMENTARY.
Boston Transcript: “Did you give
the penny to the monkey, dear?”
“Yes, mamma.”
‘.‘And what did the monkey do with
it?” ^
“He gave it to his father who played
the organ.”
GUARANTEED
Kansas City Star: An Altoona girl,
says the Tribune, sent 50 cents to a
Chicago advertiser for a receipt to
whiten and soften t&e hands. She re
ceived the following formula: “Soak
them three times a day in dishwater,
while your mother rests.”
WOULD BLOCK TRAFFIC.
Edinburg Scotsman: Policeman—
What are you standing ’ere for?
Loafer—Nuffink.
Policeman—Well, just move on. If
everybody was to stand in one place
how would the rest get past?
UNCALLED FOR PUNISHMENT.
Houston Post: The little man had
settled down in the train to read and
feeling drowsy after a hard day at
the office fell asleep. On the hat rack
above was a basket containing a
ferocious crab, and reaching the edge
of the rack, it fell, alighting on the
man’s shoulders, and grabbed his ear
to steady itself. The passengers
waited expectantly, but all they heard
was: “Let go, Sarah! I tell you I’ve
been at the office all the evening.”
AND PRICES SLUMPED.
Everybody’s Magazine: After a
salesman had sold a big order of goods
to the Scotch buyer for a Chicago
store, he sought to make the Scot a
present of a box of cigars.
“I’m sorry I canna accept,” the Scot
said, “but there’s a rule of the hoose
that ye canna take presents from
salesmen.”
“Well,” laughed the salesman, “I’ll
soil therm to yon for five cents then.”
“That’s different now,” the canny
buyer replied after taking a good snifT
at the box. “I can buy my smoksg
anywhere I please. I’ll take four!
boxes.”
AX AUTHORITY ON SCOTT.
Edinburg Scotsman: “Are you fond
of literature?” asked Mr. Bowdly.
“Passionately!” Miss Tubbs replied.
“Then you must admire Sir
Scott,” he exclaimed with sudden ani
mation. “Is not his ‘Lady of the
Lake’ exquisite in its flowing grace
and poetic imagery?”
“It is perfectly lovely!” she as
sented, clasping her hands in ecstacy.
“I suppose I have read it a dozen
times.”
“And Scott’s ‘Marmion’,” he went
on, “and ‘Peveril of the Peak?’”
“1 just dote on them!’ she said.
“And Scott’s Emulsion?” he said
hastily, a faint suspicion dawning
upon him.
“I think,” she said, “that it’s the
best thing he ever wrote!”
“Are you going to vote the same as
your husband?”
“I wouldn't for the world—but he
won’t tell me how he’s going to vote.”
Miss Shepherd sang,
‘‘In the Gloaming.”
The New Edison
stood on the stage
by her side.
I I&5 times ** bo difference / j
SMiss Betsy Lane Shepherd, famous concert
soprano, has made this test 185 times.
185 public audiences, in 185 cities, have
. f, heard her compare her voice with its Re
0 Creation by the New Edison. No one,
out of a total of more than 100,000 lis
» teners, has been able to tell when Miss
f. Shepherd was singing, and when the New
Edison — except Jby watching her lips.
4,000 similar tests of direct comparison,
made by over fifty other celebrated vocal
ists and instrumentalists, have given this
same result. j
The New Edison is perfect realism
achieved!
What kind of music
“gets” you ?
Tell us—and we 7/ show you how all its emotional
power is Re-Created by the New Edison I
Is it the soulful violin?—a mellow con
tralto?—the scintillating flute?—a sweet,
soothing tenor?—that draws the quickest
emotional response from you.
Let us play your favorite voice or instru
ment in a new kind of Realism Test. See
whether you are touched by the Re
Created music in the same way that you
are touched by the living music.
We want to show you that the New
Edison Re-Creates all the vital power in
all music.
Remember what to ask for—“personal
favorites” Realism Test! fl
Tie NEW EDISON
“The Phonograph with a Soul”
rercecx realism is your one venicie to tne inner
joys of music which you crave.
Mr. Edison spent three million dollars in the re
search work which gave the New Edison perfect
realism. He did this in order that the phono
graph might transcend its former limitations
and (here we quote Mr. Edison’s own words),
“bring into every American home, music so real
istic and so perfect in its rendition as to be an
unending source of benefit and pleasure.”
The instruments which proved this perfect real
ism m Miss Shepherd s 185 tests were all exact
duplicates of the original Official Laboratory
Model on which Mr. Edison spent his three million
dollars. You can also have an exact duplicate of j
this three million dollar original. We have it in
our store, and guarantee it to he capable of sus- ||
taining the same test of direct comparison.
Important Practical Detail
Our Budget Plan brings your New Edison for immediate 1
enjoyment, without asking for immediate payment. Ask i
about it when you come in to hear the “Personal Favor*
ites” Realism Teat.
