who have felt the thrill and throb of marveI-
Gus suees and the quivering steel OF pities adj
versity, bot Whp, NE the author of thes lines,
have massed their non vii and persistent plnlS
and al the dormant abilities that lay In slan,-
Der on al men upon the pivot that turns upon
suces, and in a few years the yicisitudes and
trials and victories and defeats wer eclipst and
overshadowed by overwhelming and magnif-
cent triumphs. Hero are the open sesames TO
open battles and qGik, easy, complete mastery
and supremacy. There must Do no procTnstf2
nation nor haf-hearted determination, but the
battle must begin now, not tO-mogToIe, and re-
member that opportunities once lost never re-
turns, reminding us again of the little copy
book at the old log skool house, PARsoS
FRIES, near ny FAFHKR's-s' Time oIacs past,

forever"
In the midst of season freighted with suSz
ees never before attained in this Metropolis,
many of the hestamehestcrafts have gene down,
filing the auction rooms, the sherilfs and tht
Marshalrs sales TO oyerfiowing. Theerowdof
buyers place q diferent- value upon goods to-
day to what were ths ruling rates yesterday.
just Us to-morrow's prices viii vary aud change
from to-dlays. With alert, experienced buy sers
of rare Judgment, pluk, andaeity and ability,
having unlimited command of that one thing
that will buy tho earth, we arc able to watch
and take advantage of these splendid chances
and offer to men who are afyaid of the insane
cry of Auction Goods some jobs, leaders
and specialtics Well calculated to enhance your
cnances of early suceess-it Injuries no fabric
to drive It through these giant engines of the
Marshal and Assignee, the Sheriff and the
Auction Marts of this eity==it merely changes
the price, from one owner who would not sell
until too late to another whose rock-botoni
quotations move them like chah before tho
wind. It was upon these same batlenelds that
Stewards Artillery played with such tremen4
dus effect in his carly days, that led him ON 20
fame. 1t is nothing moro or less than thes
auction purchases bS scholars trained to tho
trade, educated in the costly crucible OF nearly
half n century, with the keen seent Of blood
hound for big concerns high mp in mercantile
rating, but Overdrawn in bank, for houses
overloaded with stock, but pressed with notes,
aud overdue accounts they cannot meet, gi-
gantic marble palaces, from whose doorway
tomorrow will hang the red iag Of the Sheriff
1t Is these sledge hamers, thes corn and cob
crushers that hay filed our rag - with tho
names of the most thoroughly posted men in
this country, keen, close, shrewd, careful
buyers, who understand the difference be-
tween buying cheap and paying full regular
prices: buyers who know what havoc &c
makes In the trade II they can cell at what
their competitor pays, and who know well
enough how people will crowd that store,
whose prices arc known to bc always below
the market, and It Is 20 these InansWerable
quotations that this ritter calls your attention,
in the confident anticipation of trial order OF
appreciation, in the honest belief that your In
terests and your duty lie in that direction
toteye you can get he best ualIe for .e money"
