WHO MAKES TIE BEST AND CHEAPEST GOLD PENS!
1t is the trade marks of the prosperous and
deserving that rogues find their account in
forging and articles Of unusual and acknowl-
edged merit that imitators exhaust their ingenu
ity in copying. The best metallic pen ever in
vented is Alexander Mort0ns. Nature made
suggestion when she provided gOose-quills, which
Morton accepted and carried out in gold. The
penalty follows, and men, without the ability to
make an honest living, steal his name and repu-
tation to cheat the public with spurious arti-
Gle. There are pens, and Morton-pens, and the
rogue knows that if he can persuade the people
who write and don't scratch merely, that that
which he can make is the same thing as that
which he cannot, he is on the high road to for
tune. 1t is a simple proposition-tO pass off one
pen for another Some resort to even simpler
process One lmave issues a circular, signing
Mortons name with other initials i'll which he
promises pen for a remittance in money. The
dupe sends the money, cheated by the stolen
name but gets nothing iii return. Perhaps he
seeks for redress at the place whence the circu-
lar assumes to come, but no sHch place can be
found and he puts UP with dead loss. Or the
same circular is sent ont with another signature :;
but the result is the same the price is paid, but
no pen is returned NOrton's reputation thus
becomes an article of trade in the rogues mar
ket it's real owner is defrauded, and multitudes
made the victims of knavery Oftener spuri-
GUS article is sold for the real Morton pen, ip
which case the reputation of the inventor suf-
fers still more, and the purchaser, though he
gets something for his money, has poor. thing

Mr. Morton proposes to protect himself and
the public In his published Card he announces
that henceforth his pens will only he sold at his
own place, No 25 Maden-lane, and by his au-
thorized agents These agents will all be pro-
vided with a large and conspicuous certificate
of authority to sell, and the pens cannot be
bought of anybody who cannot show one. Here
after nobody need be cheated, and everybody
who wants the best of pens can buy them OF the
agents at the manufacturers prices, with the
ertainty that the article paid for is the article
they meant to buy New York Daily Tribune

ment will secure to every principal town an
authorized agent who will have a full and va

that the purchaser can have a far wider range
of selection than heretofore, when every large
town has had several dealers offering limited
and indifferent samples of this pen, and often
at unfair prices We have on other Occasions
stated our opinion of Morton's gold pens. They
are beyond comparison the best. The makers
system of machinery, too, by economizing labor
enables him to put upon the market pen of
purer gold, and far better make, than any 9th
ers, at prices much less, in proportion to quality
and make, than those of any other manufac-

MORToN's GOLD PENs.-We have used many
gold pens, and like those made by Mr.. A. Nor
ton, of No. 25 Maiden-lane, far better than any
others we have ever tried. We have used no
other for long time past. No better gold pen
is made. american Agilcultunst
