success yet innumerable failures prefaced all his successful inventions when the had his phonograph pretty well perfected the lnstrubient still refused to pronounce certain letters it was a failure some men would have let it go at that he toiled on day and night week in and week out until he succeed ed nobody remembers those failures now they- do not count no failure is about 3000 as i had hoped he soon brought up the subect of advertising yes i do quite a bit of advertising he told me when i asked him about his own efforts along that line last year i spent more than 500 which is a pretty large sum for a business of my size isnt it i i agreed that it was and asked him if i could see some of his advertisements what did you say he asked me cats and dogs i replied thats what advertising men call such miscel laneous expenditures as you have been making in the first place many of your entries arent advertising at all and many of the rest are just on the fringe what would you suggest he
