'And remember that a dollar will
only buy a dollar’s worth of goods. A
get-rich-quick scheme is dangerous,
likewise buying cheap, inferior mer
chandise and trying to make yourself
believe you have the better end of the
deal and that the man who sold you
goods didn’t know what they were
worth.
THIS HAPPENS
Every day in the purchase of musical
instruments of every description. I f
you will only compare the Orthophonic
Victrola with any and all of the cheap
so-called Phonographs, you will then
come to realize the vast difference be
tween them.
