over $1,000 by one Of the leading colleges OF the
city of New York. These are from the pens
OF the ablest specialists OF modern times. The
authors gave away the copyright on condition
that lO,oO0 copies should be distributed to the
ru1blfc free of charge. The Columbia Scientific

er and scientific character reading are ex-

Two secret methods Of personal influence are
described, which positively enable any fntelli-
gent person to exercise marvellous influence
and control over any one whom he may wish.
These methods are entirely new and have never

them personally and can vouch for their won

The books also describe absolutely certain
methods by which you can read the character,
secrets and lives OF every one you meet. No

the secret power by which minds Of human

est latest and best system Of physical and
mental culture and magnetic healing is fully
explained and illustrated by beautiful half
tone engravings No such books have ever
before been published No such wonderful
Information has ever before been placed in
the hands of the public. On account of the
mighty power and influence placed in ones
hands by these books, the Legislature of the
State OF New York debated whether or not the
State ought to permit their promiscuous circu-
lation, but it was finally decided the good they
would accomplish would greatly overbalance the
H. and their distribution was not interfered
with.
Not long ago John D. Rockefeller. the richest
man in America, said. in talking to a Sunday
school class, that he regarded his success In
life largely to his ability to influence others.
Lincoln. Lee, Napoleon and Alexander the
Great all won fame and renown by their won
derful power Of personal influence. Jay Gould
piled Up millions by this same power. ]. P.
Morgan organized the biIlion-dollar steel trust
and enriched himself by millions simply by
his marvellous ability to influence others There
are to-day thousands of men with twice the
brains and education OF Mr. Morgan who are
practically paupers- They have the ability to
organize trust but they have not sufficient
power OF personal influence. Personal influence,
