US. TO GET TRADE
OF LATIN AMERICA
Merchants Association Advises
Prospective Exporters on
Conditions There.

NEW YORK, Sept 7.-"Great for
elgn trade fields await conquest in
central and South America and enor-
nous markets in which competition
mas been removed by the war in
Europe beckon the enterprise and en-.
ersy of the business men of this
country" the Merchants Association
bulletin. issued today, says.
Although the interest of Ameri-
can manufacturers and merchants in
Inc possibility of securing this trade
Is increasing, there is lack of spe-
chic information to guide prospective
exporters
Inc facts that stand out prominent
~ are that these countries must have
our goods, and the Merchants Asso-
cation finds that suggestions to be
needed in entering these markets fall
chiefly into these three general
groups:
only thorough going ard continued
methods of investment have any hope
OF permanent success in these fields.
In other words, filters" seldom sue
coed.
NuS must ne Supplleu III the
grades and patterns which the buying
country demands.
Business procedure must be adapted
TO the customs of the country in
which the goods are sold
one danger of the present awak-
enlng interest in these countries"
says the Merchants Association, 'is
that it may lead to ill-considered in
Vestments, with inevitable losses. For
example, the United States can hope
to sell comparatively little heating
apparatus in the tropics, and, for the
present at least, few shoes to people
accustomed to going barefooted, ana
yet both recently have been attempt
ed by American shippers.
Conditions of merchandising in
vogue there differ from American
practice, and caution should be ex-
ercised in the procedure and the
method to be followed in going after
this trade. AS far as possible a per-
sonal visits to the different markets
should be made in order to learn
their needs.
1.-THE very best thing which could
be done would be for manufacturers
and dealers in similar non-c ompeti-
tive lines to unite in sending an eX
perienced agent to observe and re-
port upon the trade openings which
he found. Such an agent could fur
Their establish selling agencies for
each line of goods he represented,
and distribute samples. etc. This
form of cooperation certainly will not
be Illegal, its advantages will be in
creasingly apparent as time passes,
and it will continue after European
peace is declared"

What Thin Folks Should
Do To Gain Weight
Physicians Advice for Thin, Unde-
Veloped Men and Women.

Thousands of people suffer from ex
cessive thinness, weak nerves and fee
BILE stomachs who, having tried adver-
tised flesh makers, food fads, physical
culture stunts and rub-on creams, re-
sign themselves to lifelong skinniness
and think nothing will make them fat.
Yet their case is not hopeless. A recently
discovered regenerative force makes fat
grow after years of thinness, and is
also unequaled for repairing the waste
of sickness or faulty digestion and for
Strengthening the nerves This remark
able discovery is called Sargol. Six
strength giving. at-producing elements
of acknowledged merit have been COM
bincd in this peerless preparation, which
is indorsed by eminent physicians and
used by prominent people everywhere.
1t is absolutely harmless. inexpensive
and efficient.
A months systematic use Of Sargol
should produce flesh and strength by
correcting faults of digestion and by
supplying highly concentrated fats to
the blood. Increased nouriShment is
obtained from the food eaten, and the
additional fats that thin people need are
provided. Jacobs Pharmacy and other
leading druggists supply Sargol and
say there is a large demand for it,
While this new preparation has given
splendid results as a nerve-tonic and
vitalizer, it should not be used by ner-
vouS people unless they wish to gain at
