Quits His Own Business to Join Ours. 



No. 5460. Muncie, Ind. 



I have sent subscription and draft as per your prop- 

 osition advertised in the July " Bookkeeper," and I 

 would be pleased to have you send nic what catalogs 

 you have prepared. I was just preparing to enter the 

 mail-order business, and from what I get from your 

 proposition I believe it would be well for me to turn 

 my attention to this work, and I think I can turn quite 

 a large business from this section. 



A Heavy Mail-order Buyer. 



St. l,ouis, Mo. 

 I wish to purchase about three shares of your stock 

 within the next three weeks. I have always been a 

 heavy mail-order buyer; have in the last ten years 

 bought thousands of dollars worth of goods 'from 

 other houses. I am much pleased with your plan. I 

 want a few shares of your stock, at least three shares, 

 for I am pleased with your prices and plans and want 

 to purchase to a considerable extent from vour house.

 idea and best investment of the new century. ' Cnhcoriha Tf) fiau If llllt fnr HllQ ^harO while we offer
