..Talk is cheap" Therefore don't
hand ont TOO much Of it. 1t makes you
and your proposition. also, look cheap.
Every mau looks with suspicion upon
n plan necessitating giving you money.
He has to be shown.
The truth is mighty aud must prevail.
Just tell the truth. bat tell 1t as If you
yourself believed it. too.
You've got 10 know your proposition
from A to lizard. You've got to know
it like a young mother knows baby talk.
A real salesman Is enc part talk and
nine parts judgment, and he uses the
nine parts of Judgment to tell when to
use the one part Of talk.
Any territory is good territory to the
man Who is himself good. The man
makes the territory, not the territory
the man.
Getting business is a good deal like
counting q girl-yon must offer the
right kind of goods aud keep on call
ing.
Become 50 saturated with confidence
in your own proposition that it exudes
from your every pore aud shines from
your face.
Work just as hard the day after you
have sold 800. 900 worth as you did the
day you did it. You may duplicate
your yesterdays achievement.
Enthusiasm is the best shortening for
any job; il makes heavy work light.
The lady on the dollar is the only
woman who hasn't any sentiment in
her make mp.
Have something to say. Say it. stol
talking.
a tactful man can pull the stinee
from a bee without getting stung.
When a fellow knows his business
he doesn't have to explain to Peep
that he does.
A good salesman is as full Of bounce
ms a cat with a small boy and a bull ter
rier after him.
Stock up your brain so that when th'
demand comes you will have the gooc'
TO offer.
An appeal to reason is ofttimes ies'
effective than an appeal 10 the pocket.
Hot air can take up a balloon a iopt
ways, bat it can't keep IL there.
A man who does big things is to-
busy to talk about them.
Putting off an easy thug makes
hard. aud putting off a hard thin
makes 1t impossible.
The short cut to success is hard work
A pleasant road, too. when you once &c
acquainted with it.

CONFEDERATE VETERANS.

Rain in Norfolk yesterday threw i
wet blanket over the proceedings of the
last day OF the Confederate reunion,
and the parade, which had been planned
to end the celebration, was practically
abandoned.
The procession had been scheduled
to leave Commercial Place at 10
O'Clock, to march a mile Instead the
thin, gray lire marched at II O'Clock
and proceeded directly to the steamer
Maryland, to embark for ride around
the harbor. The parade was small,
but it made up in enthusiasm what it
lacked in numbers.
The threatening clouds had partially
rolled away by II O. CLOCK, and the more
hardy veterans, with the Spanish
American Veterans. two bands and the
Sons of Veterans and Confederate
choirs, assembled at the Confederate
monument.
The bugle and drum corps from the
receiving ship Franklin got busy, and
the sidewalks lined with people waited
for the parade to begin. The Grand
Marshal H. c. Hoggard announced
the original programme had been
changed, and that the line OF march
would be directly to the wharf.
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon the
grand camp met for a brief closing ses-
sion, with Captain w. c. White, OF
Pickett Buchanan Camp, the newly
elected grand commander, presiding.
After hearing the report OF the finance
committee and disposing of the rem
nants of the routine business, the
grand camp adjourned to meet in New
port News next year.
A trip around the harbor and grand
ball to the sponsors and maids OF honor
in the evening closed the entertainment
features.
