Legal Name Bay State
I earnestly ask every man and woman to buy "National
Stock." If you are a millionaire, buy 100,000 to 1,000,000
hares. If a prosperous business man, 10,000 to 50,000 shares ;
if a well-to-do middle-ctasser, 500 1 05000 shares; if a salaried
worker 200 to 2000 shares ; if a savings bank depositor, a tenth
of your savings worth ; if a workingman or woman, one share
or fifty.
I assume the grave responsibility f asking all to buy for
three reasons.
Read them and see if they axe plumb.
First The investment will be a reasonably safe one, for,
unlike all other corporations but banks and trust companies,
all money paid for "National Stock" goes into. the Treasury
"National Stock," there to remain as money and to be as safely
kept as if in the Government mint. I personally guarantee
that all funds will be always on hand unless lost in the stock
market.
BELOW SEE CHANCES FOR LOSING "NATIONAL
STOCK" FUNDS IN STOCK MARKET.
Second Your investment will aid. in the greatest work of
modern times the annihilation of the System and the putting
of the American people actually into the saddle.
Third Every dollar invested in "National Stock should
return 500 to 1000 per cent profit. Mark you, I do not say
will, but should. Let us examine, man-fashion, the chances
for this enormous return.
The top, sides and bottom of my whole work, for which
I have planned, plotted and maneuvered a lifetime, are :
First Can I sell to the American people and Europeans
high and low, here, there and everywhere, millions upon mil
lions of shares of "National Stock?"
Second With the proceeds can I make money, that
is, can I take away the money of the Rockefellers, Harnmans,
Morgans the system, through my. stock market operations?
Can I beat them at their own game, and one by which they
have taken from the people billions upon Jbillions of wealth,
which the people earned and should have retained for them
selves! It is for American people whom I have educated
during the past four years to the inside workings of "The
Game." The American people who have habited themselves
.to the game of stocks, the American people who know me,
to decide. : ,,.
If I can sell millions upon millions of ''National stock
I will take the System by the tail and swing it round
and through its stock marts until the dollars plundered
from the people will flow back to the people like a golden
Niagara. ,
There should not be much doubt but that I can make
the System's forces- in the stock market look like Falstaff's
army in front of a buffalo stampede if I have the people
and the people's millions behind me. In the past I never

have been compelled to work overtime .to take away from
the System as many millions as were reasonably neoesasry
and this without the people or the people's millions. Yet
oftentimes I have been compelled to refuse to act as field
general for the System. Looking at this end of my work
cold-bloodedly, I say: It is 100 to 1 in favor of my turning
every $5,000,000 of the people 's ' investment in "National
Stock" into $20,000,000 annually. Therefore my proposition
concentrates to can I sell to the people unlimited number
of shares of "National Stock"? I believe my chances of
doing this are at least 10,000 to 1.
I know how to advertise. Experts viewing the past say
I "do. I have never yet really advertised. "I WILL ADVER
TISE NATIONAL STOCK" In my advertising I believe I
will outpatent medicine the most successfully advertised
patent medicine, and that in my coming campaign, having for
its end the making of 20.000.000 stockholders for "National
Stock," I will out-Barnum BaVnum. I assure the public I
stop at no honest method to get this stock into every nook
and corner of the world. I repeat: The one question for
every one to decide is: Will I be able to sell "National
Stock" everywhere and to every one by continuously raising
the price and by giving large returns to all buyers from the
tremendous profits which I will make in the stock market!
If your answer is yes, and it must be, buy "National Stock,
buy it now, before the beginning of my next advertising
campaign, which will be entirely different from this one. It
would seem that even the fence viewer should be able to
answer the question; why should people, who know nothing
of the stock game, play it against experts, when they can
become owners in the most perfect expert machinery which
ever tackled "The Game," machinery into which will go all
the stock market profits of successful experts?
Mull this over.
Also this. In stock market affairs one must not only
know the game, have capital enough to play it and machinery
to play it with, but one must be nimble as a nimble cat.
For instance: "The street" and the public last week knew
I had bought an enormous line of smelters between 60 and 70,
that I was shouting from the housetops, "Buy it," that it
jumped to 107 and that then, quick as a flash I dumped my
entire line onto "The Street." Why? Between one jiff and
another I saw the whites of the System's eyes and they were
red and I dumped. The System and "The Street" loaded with
stocks and in the middle of a big bull campaign could do
nothing but take my stock or havoc would have been to pay all
along the line. And they took the stock and I the big profits.
Smelters dropped to 97 and I am buying again 10 points less ,
than I sold. This is the stock game as it is played and as
"National Stock" will play it.
I repeat: Buy "National Stock." Buy it now. Buy it
through any New York, Boston or Philadelphia stock ex
change or responsible curb house.
