Complete Worksof ™" Col. RobertG. " ~ INGERSOLL For fifty.years Col. Robt. G. Ingersoll spoke beiore packed houses wherever. he appeared. i{e drew greater crowds than any other one man of his time. He was implored by Governors, Sena- tors and Presidents to speak for their cause. He stood alone as the greatest thinker and orator this country has ever seen, and none greater has appeared since his death. His subjects were as "broad as humanity itself. He loved the downtrodden, the poor, the ignorant. His orations were sold by hundreds-of thousands in pamphlet form. The newspapers all over the world were full of his words. His orations were translated in every {foreign language. He had more friends among the great men of his time than any other national figure. His logic, his poetry, his humor, his simplicity, his earnestness, his sympathy charmed and capti vated millions. He was the most powerful man of his time be- cause he made more people THINK than any other man. The Greatest Thinker an Orator of the Age! President Garfield called him “Royal Bob.” Mark Twain said of him, “His was a great and beautiful spirit * * * my reverence for him was deep and genuine. I prized his affection for me and re- turned it with usury.” Henry Ward Beecher said, “Robert G. In- gersoll is the most brilliant speaker of the English tongue in any land on the globe.” Judge Jéremiah S. Black said, “He made a speech before the Supreme Court in Washington which was an ab- solute whirlwind, and carried away in its restless current that august bench.” Another man said, “No man of his ability was ever President of- the United States. His life is as striking a chapter in American History as the life of Abraham Lincoln.” ‘Whatever your position in life, you cannot afford not to read the com- plete works of Col. Ingersoll. You will be thrilled by his mastery of Eng- lish, by his unanSwerable logic, by his amazing conclusions. His was the gift found only in a decade of generations. No man can but be inspired, uplifted and ‘mentally improved by reading his works. They are clean, whotesome, fascinating and more interesting than any fiction you have ever read.
