After three years retirement from the a~gricult-

ufacturers of implements, to go into the business
Of selling their goods on commission.
After due consideration and with the advice of
friends, I have decided to accept their proposition,
and have again taken possession of the old Vic
Wan on Main street, where ! may be found at all
reasonable business hours, ready and willing to
show such goods as are entrusted to me for sale.
l shall endeavor by square dealing to merit the
patronage Of every man who comes to Independ-
ence for his farm machinery. have no travelling
agents to canvass the county and urge you to buy
what you ought not to; You will not be bored in
this by me or men in my employ. l believe every
man knows what machine he needs and cannot well
do without in order to carry on his farming sue
cessfully- and knowing should come to town and
look over all the goods in the market and select
such as will best answer his purpose.
expect to keep only first class goods and shall
sell them as low as possible consistent with the
true principles Of business. Having no expensive
help to pay, l shall be able to sell cheap and still
live. When in business (years ago. 1 had a num-
Der of sub-agents and men employed by the month
IN consequence Of which a large amount of ma
chinery was exchanged for farmers notes which
never has and never will be paid. Inow find my
self in possession of thousands of dollars in
farmers worthless paper, with an unpaid debt
much too large for my ability to discharge, and
this my reward for a 20 years. business struggle.
1t is but the natural and almost inevitable result
OF forced sales through sub-agents and employees,
whose main object is to make large sales and who
always manage to secure their commission and
draw their wages with a regularity that would
astonish the oldest man.

call at the wig wan and examine my goods and
prices. If You like them and actually need them,
buy them. When not using them house them and
pay for them when you agree to, and you will
please yourself, please the manufacturer and last
but not least please me.
There are seven golden rules for business, which,
If closely followed, will bring success and happi-
ness. shall try and practice them:
1. Sell all goods as cheap as possible, for cash.
2. Sell to no one on time who will not give
good paper.
3. Poor paper is worse than nothing; better
give your goods away at once than exchange them
for poor paper.
4. Sell nothing but frst-class goods, such as
you can conscientiously recommend.
8. Be as willing to take back goods that fail to
fill the warranty as you are to sell them, and al
ways refund the pay for them.
q. Always try and give every man value receiv-
ed in every article you sell him.
z. Require all to whom you give credit to meet
their promises promptly when due.

parts being taken by Mr.. and Mrs. Frank

seer quite often before, and who are
versatile and pleasing actors. Little

characters well. The proceeds of the
two nights we did not learn, but the
