Because it has been the hab- it of some uiereliaitts to look upon it as an expense, a wrong 'view has been gained. Perhaps the misconcep- tion arose from the fact that in bookkeeping it has been the habit to charge advertising to expense. Ad- vertising touuuees. new business—it swells the volume of business and profit --therefore it is au investmeat. Only the man who looks upon adver- tising as an expense, who is afraid of it, prejudiced against it, loses money in advertising. The elan who treats advertising as au investment and gives it the attention an invest- ment requires—knows that every dollar rightly invented in this (er- ection yields compound interest -- and more.

You can hear it exactly as did the noted psychologists who visited the Edison Shop on PlhAvenue, New York. You've been hearing about the astonishing realism of the New Edison. Now you ask : "Is this realism so true that I feel the same emotions in listening to the New Edison as I feel in listening to the living singer?" Our answer is—put the New Edison to the test ! Mr. Edison devised his unique Realism Test for this very purpose. Then he invited distinguished psychologists to try it out. Each of the three men got sensations that were startlingly vivid. "I could have sworn there was a living singer standing behind me," said Dr. W. V. Bingham, Director of the Department' of Applied Psychology, Carnegie Institute of Technology. "I felt the presence of a living singer. The accompaniment seemed by a separate instrument," reported Prof. C. H. Farns- worth, Director of the Department of Music, Teachers' College, Columbia University. "The music filled my mind with thoughts of peace and beauty," said Wilson Follett, Esq., noted music critic. We'd like to have you come into our store and try this same test. See what sensations you get. The Realism Test is the conclusive wayfor judgingthe realism of the NewEdison.'
