MAKING OF GOOD SALESMAN
Three Essential Principles for Those
Seeking to Attain Highest Pro.
fciency In the Art.

Successful craftsmanship simply is q
science. which must be studied thor
oughly BY the salesman who wishes to
attain the highest degree of proficiency
in the art OF selling goods.
There are three essential principles
OF good salesmanship. First. ability
to analyze and discover all the selling
POINTS of goods; second, to arrange IN
the proper order. and third, to ex'
press them in the best possible way
to the customer.
An important factor in successful
craftsmanship is the proper dealing
with customers Of different tempera-
ments. All people are OF widely OIL
ferent character and must be ap-
preached In different ways II a sale
is to be effected. In order to be
successful salesman In the true sense
Of the word, a man must be able to
certain extent to analyze the charac'
ter Of each individual customer and
approach him in the way best suited
to his individual temperament.
The problem Of success In business
rests largely on the degree to which
the individual efficiency of the bust
ness man Is developed The differ
ence between the ordinary and the ex'
ceptional business man is due to the
effort put forth by the successful man
to develop the power he has. One OF
the formulas for success Is endurance,
plus ability. plus reliability. plus &C
ton, equals success.

PAYS IN THE LONG RUN
Advertising Gathers Momentum az u
Goes. Making Sales easler-must
Be Properly Planned.

There Is an old proverb setting
forth the homely truth that II takes
constant pounding to hammer homo
a nail This Is simply forceful and
picturesque way OF saying that one
impression Is often not sufficient to
pound home fact.
or course the man who first put
this proverb In writing had never
heard of advertising but the truth
fits the advertising situation like
glove. One advertisement seldom pays
Two or even a dozen advertisements
are likely to prove losing proposi
ton In fact 1t may be doubted II In
q general field a few advertisements
OF a staple brand OF Merchandising
per for instance-ever pay in direct
returns for the space they occupy. But
advertising does pay In the long run
II takes time for train Of heavy
Pullmans to get under way And II
takes time for advertising to produce
selling effort that can actually be felt
Put just as surely as the engine pulls
the train out OF the yard. so will prop
erly planned advertising sell goods
Such advertising gathers momentum
as 1t goes, just like train And
whoever connects up his own selling
effort with advertising that is under
way and running at top speed Is surs
to find that he makes sales easier AMI
that his own efforts count for more
Such ia the cumulative effect Of
advertising

Judge not the motive by the deed.
1t is not possible for you to look into
another's soul and tell the false
things from the true. You think you
can, and every day you Judge them
as they pass you by. and every night
you ought to ask forgiveness for the
hue any cry you raise along some
weary way.
1t Is not just, It is not fair, that you
should cast doubt that may before
its evil course Is stayed have stirred
4 curse or hushed prayer. You can
not tell, you cannot know the hopes
nor doubts that harbor there. 1t may
be glorified with Joy or darkened by
a deep despair. God did not place you
here to Judge your fellow traveller on
the way, nor ask you to decide for
him which he should choose, which
turn away.

that crowd around the Judgment seat.

Modern Fairy Story.

The butcher, the baker and the
candlestick maker decided that life in
the children's classics, although very
quiet, did not obtain the goods.
So the butcher gladly consented to
pay IL cents pound for pigs, and he
consequently affected the high cost Of
living, which gave him far more no
toriety and, incidentally, an easy liv-
ing.
Properly enthused by this example,
the baker became a large stakeholder
in a national trust and proceeded to Ell.
tighten the public concerning their
large need of biscuits.
Not to be outdone by his associates,
the candlestick maker sold out and &C.
quired a lew shares of Standard Oil
stock.

from the realm Of literature but died
