A Word with
the Piano Dealer
Do you carry a regular line of Talk-
ing Machines? If not, why not?
There's good money in it, and it
blends perfectly with your vocation.
Do you wish to know all about the
business? Its possibilities and how to
make money in selling "talkers"?
THE
TALKING
MACHINE WORLD
is the only publication in America de-
voted solely to the interests of the
talking - machine trade. It contains
forty to fifty pages 11 x 15 of interest-
ing matter, and has practical sugges-
tions, helpful comments, a complete
list of all records issued monthly by
the leading concerns, patents and im-
provements, and every item of trade
news which is worth recording from
all parts of the world.
The cost is only a trifle—fifty cents
a year (stamps or cash). No subscrip-
tion entered for less than one year.

As the result of an idea that came to him in a
