BY OUR COVER SYSTEM we have never yet drawn blank. Surprise profits are
made by all Investors who trust us with their balances, so that a
swinging amount always stands to their credit. We have never yet
received a check. Our Customers come to Order, but they never go to Law.
In June, 1893, we received information about Grand Post Defs. and
Tympanum Prefs., and a Bull-dozing Operation was decided on. As a
consequence we were able to present all Subscribers with a £50 dumb-bell
apiece, which has made them strong enough to _move a Market_.
THE ALL-ROUND COMPANY'S PEBBLE-BEECHED POPLAR HOAX DEAL. Everyone should
therefore
PLANK DOWN HIS MONEY and
THROW HIS SCRUPLES OVER-BOARD.
BY our NEW PURCHASE SYSTEM all
COMMISSIONS ARE ABOLISHED.
THE ALL-ROUND COMPANY DEALS IN LARGE BLOCKS.
THE ALL ROUND COMPANY BLOCK-HEADS THE LIST.
THE ALL-ROUND COMPANY TELLS YOU
HOW TO WATCH A STOCK and
HOW TO STRIKE A TIME-BARGAIN.
IF YOU DON'T LIKE G STOCK BUY B STOCK.
THE BUSY B BUZZES!
HUSH A-BUY B STOCK!!
LAST YEAR we recommended all bonneted widows to buy B's. The result is
that they now wear poke-bonnets, and own pigs. They are also in clover.
H STOCK FOR EVER!!!
THE H CANNOT DROP.
H STOCK FOR AMPSTEAD!
H STOCK FOR IGHGATE!
H STOCK FOR OLLOWAY!

"WINDING 'EM UP."
["If he believed that the majority of the Liberal-Unionist party,
or indeed any considerable section of them, held the opinion
which was expressed by this writer in the _Times_, he, for one,
would at once resign the responsible position which he held, and
would claim to take up a more independent position, because he
was certain that their efforts would be fruitless, and that they
would not succeed in defeating the policy of Home Rule if they
were to accept the negative position which had been suggested to
them."--_Mr. Chamberlain at Durham._]
_Showman Joe soliloquiseth:_--
Waxworks indeed! Hah! I've took over the management of 'em, and I
suppose, as _Misther Thleary_ said, I must "make the betht of 'em, not
the wurtht." But I'm a bit tired of the job--sometimes.
