VIOLENT SHOCK TO TRADE.
Unreasonable pcopie are complaining grievously of the
present state of business; they say they can sell nothing, and get
no orders; others are going on as If trade was at its best. and doing
more than their share. Those who are doing nothing, find various
causes for their paucity of trade. Ole says it was the repeal of the
cons-laws ; another says it is the Great Exhibition ; a third it is the
Popish aggression ; a fourth it is the Kafir war ; a fifth that it is the
state of France ; and so they run the gauntlet through fifty alleged
causes, while the right one is kept out of view altogether. Giles Go-
a-head built twelve houses, from which he was to derive his income,
but being a whole year without letting one house, he considered
himself a loser of six Mildred pounds. London had overbuilt itself,
too many people lived in one house. Everbody took lodgings to save
taxes ; the window duty and twenty other causes passed throughGiles's
mind; but a neighbour took the libotty of calling his attention to
the real one—they were ten pounds per annum too much rent.
Giles took the hint, thought four hundred and eighty pounds was a
better income than nothing, lowered the rent, and let them all
immediately. Besides that, ke found his four hundred and eighty
pounds went quite as far as he once made six hundred go. And the
real cause of a large class suffering for want of trade is, that they
struggle against the change of system, they will stick for large
profits, and the day for large profits is gone by. Since E.
MOSES and SON set the example of trading with large capital,
and throwing all the advantages of that capital into the hands of
the public by adopting small profits. it has opened the eyes of the
public to their true interest. Those who attempt to trade upon
the old system gradually lose their customers ; but let any one
step into the Establishment of E. MOSES and SON, will they
see anything like a paucity of business there? No. On the con-
trary, hundreds of hands are actively employed, there is an
immense stock of the finest clothing in the world constantly going
• off, and as rapidly being replaced, and all arising from their being
content with small profits and turning out first-rate articles forty per
cent. less than used to be charged under the old system. It is nei-
ther the Papal Aggression, nor the repeal of the Corn-laws, nor the
Great Exhibition, nor the Kafir war. nor the state of France, that
snakes bossiness with some people bad. It is the folly of attempting
to keep up the system of large profits. Trade has had a shock, but
it was electric, and should have been, and would have been, benefi-
cial to all alike bad all acted properly; but those only who, at
once. like E.MOSES and SON, adopted the system of small profits
on good articles, and large returns, reaped the advantage of the
change
and the public will stand by them who set the example.
This Establishment will be closed on Friday next, June 6.

PILLS,
pARR'S LIFE
ARE ACKNOWLEDGED TO BE
THE HESE' MEDICINE IN THE WORLD.
Old Parr, by a simple herbal medicine prepared by himself and
the prescription or mode of preparing which has been fortunately—
discovered within these few years—preserved his health and mental
faculties during the reign of ten Kngs and Queens of England. The
attention of all classes has been attracted to the undeniable virtue of
Parr's Life Pills, and a vast majority of the people have evinced
their unqualified approval of the high character awarded this medi-
cine, and are daily becoming more and more convinced, not only of
the efficacy, but, to use a more familiar term, the innocency of this
renovator of the human race.
