A CARD-In 1861 Morton discontinued the
discount formerly given to the Jobbing Trade,
and, ignoring the services of middle men, has
sold his pens either directly to those who use
them, or to such as keep them on hand for the
better supply of the writing public in their
own localities. There may he Jobbers who
have spoken in favor of the Morton Pen since
that time, but, if so, ther remarks have never
in n single instance reached his ear; and
although they generally admit that Morton
can make the best pens in the world, and used
to do so. they nevertheless put forth great
exertions to show that the Morton Pen has de-
preciated in value, is not what it formerly was,
and that those which they vend are equal, If not
superior; now since many Retail Dealers obtain
what little they know of pens, as well as the pens
themselves, entirely from the Jobbers, people are
ant to be misled by their representations
In order that the public may judge correctly,
and at the same time see how much pains
taking is exercised 20 give every one who orders,
lust such pen as will exactly suit ms hand,
Morton confidently refers to the many thousands,
throughout the entire country, who have re-
ceived his pens through the mails during that
time, and also calls particular attention 70 the
following letter which has accompanied every
