What A Pathephone Would Mean To Your Home
Here's long hours shortened—hero's dull evenings made bright and pleasant—
here's Music for those that would dance—here's songs old and new, and Grapd
Operas, and single instruments, and bands and orchestras for those whose tastes are
so inclined—here's entertainment for those who call—here's familiarity with the
talent of the greatest artists—here's knowledge of ALL that's BEST in music—ALL
brought into your Home through the Pathephone.
What Pathe' Records Offer You Pathe' Cabinets Are Artistic Furniture

In Pathe' Records whish are played with a
permanent Sapphire Ball instead of steel needles—
you find a new and unexplored mine of Music
waiting you. Thousands of Records to play and
enjoy ! Besides, Pathephonet are so equipped
that they play not only Pathe' Records, but ANY
record made by any Phonograph company. Thus,
with -a Pathephone in your Home, you may enjoy
as much of the great Musical litfralure of all ages
as you desire.
Pathe' Prices and Terms
While the Pathephone comes in all styles and at all prices, there IS an instrument to
fit every taste and every purse. In (act we believe a comparison with other standard
makes will show a decided price advantage for the Pathephone. ' A small cash payment
—probably less than you expected to pay—will take a Pathephone to your home any
time you may direct.
