c.pn-In 1901 Morton discontinued the
discount formerly given to the JoDpihg lraue'
and ignoring the services OF mddle men, h''S
cold his pens either directly to those VINO use
them. or 10 such as keep them on hand 1or tne
better supply of the writing public IN theT
ovvn localities There may be J0DDefs WHO
have snoken in favor of the Morton zen sihce
that time. but, if 80, their remarks have never
n single instance reached his ear ana
although they generally admit that Morton
can mako the best pens in the world, and used
N do So they nevertheless put forth great
ovortions 10 show that the Morton Pen has lie
nrecioted in value, is not what it formerly was,
and that those which they vend are equal, if not
spnerior: now since many Retail Dealers obtain
what little they know of pens, rs wen as the pens
themselves, entirely from the Jobbers, people are
ant to be misled by their representations.
| In order that the public may judge cOrrectiy'
and Mt the same time see how much pans
taking is exercised to give every one who orders
inst such pen as will exactly suit his 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 TO the
following letter which has accompanied every
