method: to merely distribute your
samples from door to door. to follow
this plan but to combine it with a sales
talk to the housewife, or to distribute
Your samples through the grocers ?
Analysis has proved that where the
first method will result in the sale of
one package of your product, the see
ond will sell three and the third will
sell 10 packages. SO there's IA mistake
which II is no longer necessary to
make.
For years plants operated without
cost systems. Consequently in sub
hitting bids for contracts, the same
mistakes were made year after year.
An efficient cost system. which is
merely an ANALYSIS of your expenses
enabling you TO apportion them cor
rectly, eliminates the danger of bid :
ding too high or too low
advertising, a field in which nearly
a billion dollars is spent annually in
this country, offers another example
of ne value of analysis. Formerly ads,
booklets, sales letters and other ad-
SertiSing literature were prepared and
published with the hope that the plan
and copy were the best for the pur-
pose. Now in campaigns of any mag

piled on a national scale. Another
case Of avoiding mistakes.
Fifty years ago business men
gucsscd-we know. They succeeded
in spite of constant repetition of the
same mistake. We don't make the
same mistake more than once. And if
were willing to learn by the other
mans experiences, we don't make it
once"

Tolstoy Discusses
Russian Liberty.

To the September Century Count
llya TolstoN, son of the great novelist
and philosopher, contributes an illumi-
mating article on The Evolution of
Liberty in Russia" which is of eX
difficulties of democratic reconstruc-
ton are besetting the new republic.
Count Tolstoy is, like his father, II
nom resistant anarchist, but he treats
the Russian situation broadly. And
it is in his analysis of Russian con-
ditions, rather than his description OF
the Tolstoyau creed, that American
readers will be chiefly Interested.
Count Tolstoy predicts some of the
changes which are likely to take Of
feet in Russia" as follows:
First, direct election of representa-
tives.
Second. freedom of speech, OF the
press. and of religion.
Third, the autonomy Of Finland,
Poland, and probably of the other ma
tionalities on the outskirts of Russia,
Fourth, the abolition of all re-
strictions upon the rights of the jew
sh people III Russia.
Fifth IA responsible cabinet Of min
listers.
Sixth, amnesty of all political pris-
oncfs in Russia and Siberia.
Seventh. the proper settlement of
the land question"
The seventh, Count Jolstoy says, is
the greatest problem. The sole am
bition of the illiterate peasant is for
land more land and again moro land
This question will be the principal
problem to face not only at the pres
cnt time but in the future. The
only solution must be found in an in
creased tax on land, and this prin-
ciple leads us inevitably to the doc
trine of the single tax as advocated
by the great American economist.

United States
of the World.

The problem of democracy, Count
Tolstoy argues. is not limited to ma
tons; it is an International problem.
War. he says, is intolerabIe; men,
ace to civilization. He continues:
The world must finally rid itself of
this nightmare. We may accomplish
1t by forever forsaking the prime
cause of dissention among nations, the
sentiment of nationality.
The day will come when we shall
realize not only the brotherhood of in
dividuals. but the essential unity of
all mankind. The race must not
only shake off the bonds of dcspot-
ism, but must free itself from the
slavery of national scparatism. All
are brothers, all children of the same
Father.
The barriers which divide nations
are artificial. l believe the time is
at hand when these barriers will fall.
