1t is a conceded fact and admitted by eve
ry one, that if the Capitalist or Manutac-


turer can secure a monopoly Of the sale and
manufacture of any article of universal con


sumption, that they have laid the stepping


stone to a permanent structure of wealth.
The cause OF so many failures with men OF


enterprise and small capital is the cOmpc-


tition of busness-the advantages of com
hincd capital against the man of limited


means with no protection thrown around
him. It's seldom that there is an article
patented that is destined to come into gen
eral use, and can readily be sold to every


family in the land. From time immemorial
! THE BROOM has been an indispensable
article in every house, and may we not safely
conclude that it always Will continue 50.
If, then, the sale of this article is unlimited


and there is no end to the demand while
time last, can there be a shadow of risk in
securing the sale and manufacture Of one
of the most complete and simple made
Brooms that the world ever produced.


1t has been the custom of our toretathers,
from the days of the Roman Empire to the
present time, to construct the Broom on the
same plan, without even an effort to i'm
provement; but ours is an age of progress
sion-old things are being done away with,
| and more useful and simple machinery is


fast taking their place, thus it is that we
are advancing and keeping pace with the
age in which our lot has been east


The success of this Broom is no longer a
doubt The certainty Of it being univer-
sally introduced into every house is only a
question OF time. Wherever there have
been men taken hold of it, and commenced
manufacturing, the demand has no parallel
in any article ever made. We have. by the
sale of territory in several States cot in sue
ceSstul operation a number of factories and
/ this, too, all in the space of few months as


the patent was not granted till June 27th,
lcb0 In Chicago, H., Mr.. Charles E.
Browne, the assignee of the patent has the


largest manutactory of the kind on the
| American continent and it is not vet three
months since 1t was put i'll motion In Michi-
gan, indiana, Wisconsin, Iowa and Mime
sofa. They are being manufactured by the
quantity, and here in the city of St Louis.


we are completing arrangements to enter ex-
tenslvely into the manufacture of the ar


tlcle, and may we not safely conclude that
there are capitalists ready and willing to
carry this same enterprise into eyery State
in the Union.


We have more territory than we can con-


troll protitably, and will dispose of any of
the States remaining unsold, at prices that


can't fail to suit the purchasers: and to


men OF limited means, we will divide to you
States by county to suit your convenience.
"A word to the wise is sufficient"


Directions for filling the Broom.


The top Of the stirrup should be about
two inches above the top Of the cone; fill a
row around the outer circle of the cone of
your straitest and best corn, and then fill
the inside with the inferior corn, if you wish
to use it, after which turn the handle
till the corn is as tight as you wish it to be,
| holding your hand ON the brush at the same
time to steady the broom, OTTER which put
on your bend wire and insert the hook and
stirrup wires and the broom is complete all
of which does not take much longer than
reading the directions. Persons cannot be


too careful in keeping the handle sufficient
ly tight to keep the corn secure, as MANY


persons are apt to unscrew it in examining
the broom and leavs it so the next comes
along, takes hold and shakes it, and bv re-


peating / t the broom viii become loose. and


lead some to think it was the fault of the


broom, when i'll fact it is the carelessness of
inexperienced persons. The broom is of
Itself so simple that the most stupid person


cannot fail TO understand it at a glance.


The State of Mississippi, or anv of the
southern States, are for sale at the low


hSufeS OF S4,0O per thousand inhabitants.
