Important to Man Ct business to Be
Reader Of Character.


How many business men appreciate
how valuable a knowledge OF human
nature really Is TO them? There are
few things. even the capital employed
in business. more valuable than the
faculty OF understanding the people
with whom one must deal day after
day.
The successful man in every walk
CT life Is the man who intuitively
knows how to deal with those whom
he comes IN contact. It is the knowl-
edge OF human nature and the ability
to read human character that makes
the politician a success. that gives the
public man in every walk Of life the
most useful power in his possession.
II the average business man paid lit
tie more attention to physiogomy and
its kindred studies he would be more
successful The idiosyncrasies OF
mankind are as various as the shells
Of the ocean Each individual cannot
be understood. but he can be placed
in his class. and fair estimate Of
him made by the man who can read
the face and understand natural &C
tions.
One OF the first studies OF the bust
ness man should be his customers
He should know q little Of the charac
ter OF each. He should be able to tell
the wellmeaning, honest one from the
dead beat, and know how best to
handle each one. There is differ
ence between the actions Of the man
who is always looking for some mer
chant who will trust him and who
never pays his bills. aad the honest
man. There IS also a difference be
tween the dishonest ones, and the
honest one who is a never-tO-well. and
4 always in the hole" Day after day
the daily papers tell Of the smooth
forgers who pass worthless checks
the country jay" who has a check
cashed or buys goods on some on'
else's credit. How much could such
work be prevented il the average bust
ness man only could read character
as he should? The wise man will lose
no opportunity TO study human nature
and profit thereby It is a capita
as useful to him as the money he hal
invested In his business.

The way my father did and My
grandfather did, is good enough for
me; l don't take much stock in those
new tangled ideas" Hoy many in the
retail trade apparently take this view
Of things? What percentage of busi.
ness men are making progress by fol.

generations? 1t is not a wise and
good idea to use tallow dips and pine
knots in an electric light age? What
would an intelligent man think Of the
western farmer who would undertake
to reap his wheat field with sickle
But still many are in the same boat
when they try to do business as their
fathers and their grandfathers did.
There are certain principles that one
may follow: can be honest, give
square measure, be sociaDle, favor
friends, and all those little things, but
to do business IN the old way means
failure unless one is located in a
backwoods place where there is no
competition. The up-to-date merchant
is the man who gets there. AID it is 4
difficult matter to find the place to
day where advanced methods are not
necessary.
