SHE HAD MAYNARD DAUGHTER
Neighbor Was Surprised When She

WHAT TO SELL TO CHINAMAN
CeestiaIs VIII Not Buy Some Things
Regarded as Necessities, Says
Commercial Attache.

An American commercial attache in
China reminds the manufacturer at
home that the Asiatic demand for
Western articles is still somewhat
primitive.
For example, the Chinaman is a
liberal purchaser Of American barb
Wire He likes the locks we make.
Files from the United States sell well
and one American firm holds mOnop-
oily on scoop shovels. But the razors
made here have no attraction, for the
Chinaman is contented with the clum-
sy instrument the local blacksmith
hammers out Of a file. Trying to sell
him doorknobs and electrical bells is
to waste time and breath. Chinese ag-
riculture gets along with the farm I'M
plements devised centuries ago and
cannot even understand the mechan-
ism of American farm machinery.
Nails, bolts and nuts have q ready
market, being simple, yet when 1t
comes to knives, the product of high
skill and workmanship, China is per-
fectly satisfied with the cheap stuff
sent out from Europe.
The commercial invasion of the far
East can be successful only If the
character of the people of the East is
given careful consideration, says the
Toledo Blade. The American mer-
chant does not try to sell section hands
fountain pens. The American manu-
acturers will lose money who seek an
outlet in China for articles that SIM
pie people look upon as luxuries or
toys.
