NEW EDISON

will not be increased until January /,
1918 Furthermore the Edison Labo-
ratOries do not intend to pass on to
The consumer the entire amount of
he war tax OH monographs and rec
Ords, but are absorbing a portion of
il themselves.
Until January first the New Edi-
son, the photograph with Il soul,''
can be purchased at the long -estab-
lished price plus 4 nominal sum, which
is only portion of the estimated war
tax
Bear in mind, if you please. that it
is matter of common knowledge in
the trade that the New Edison, al
though selling for somewhat more
than ordinary talking machines, is
manufactured and sold by the Edison
Laboratories ut Il smaller per centage
of profit. With this fact in mind you
will appreciate the liberal policy OF
the Edison laboratories towards the
consumer-a policy which invariably
characterizes all of Mr.. Edison's in
dustries.
You will want TO buy your New
Edison before January first. Owing
to the freight congestion, which seems
TO be growing worse instead of bet
ter, 1t is very difficult for us to main
tain complete stock, and we there
fore suggest that you make your Sc
