MAN NOT HARD TO ANALYzE
Observation Will Enable One to Deter
mine the Qualities Which VIII
Make Him Valuable,

The qualities that go to make up a
man are tremendously complex and yet
it is possible by close scrutiny and
keen observation to analyze man and
understand him more clearly than he
sees himself. There are certain cardi-
nal mental and physical characteristics
which can be determined by visual
examination made by an expert. In
like manner can be determined the
handspring Of the man as exemplified
in what we ordinarily consider the
various parts of his will, or those fac
tors which govern his actions. The
practical application Of the studies
taken together with his exerience and
history is then apparent. Knowing his
various physical and mental character
istics and his experience, we know
what sort Of work he Is able to do.
Knowing his will and what might be
termed spiritual characteristics, we
know what he will do, provided sur
rounding circumstances permit. With
this in mind we would place each one
Of our present or new employees at
such work as he is best able to do, and
we see that this is not necessarily that
which he has always done, although In
general it does, have a more or less
close relation with that.-Industrial
Management. '.-

When You Become a
s Conscious" Reader
of Advertising
By J. r. HAMILTON
Former Advertising Manager of Wanamakers, Philadelphia

When you learn to read your advertising as you read your
news the cost of everything you use is going to be lowered
for you. i
If you knew how much money takes to soak idea into
your mind subconscous you would be ashamed of your mind
actually takes long years sometimes to get you to
think and say a certain word.
It's like teaching baby to talk.
Every known trick of psychology brought to bear YOU
Advertisers have been known to print their advertisement
upside down. hoping perhaps that you had to stand on your
head to read it you might remember what they say
And what you often refuse to receive with your will the
your records in spite you So that 96 of what
you buy through advertising whether know it or not
yet the of all this the advertising method Of
selling things twenty times cheaper than other method
known.
Think how much cheaper still would be you would only
read your advertising consciously instead buying through
In spite of yourself
The merchant who doesn't advertise hasn't chance
with the who does.
Your eye taking photographs every time you turn these
pages You couldn't get away these advertisements if
tried them at all is record
ing them all the time Every merchant who appears here Is
telling you his story every day whether know or not
All trying do is to make conscious readers OF
advertising instead of subconsous readers This being done
equally for your benefit and for
Every the advertising in this instead
making look for you bring down your cost OF LIVING you
increase the buying Of money and you get beer
quality for the price This is because the who advertise
always the best merchants They the who last The
others up little while and then out That's the
proof
On the other hand every time get hundred more OF
our readers each day with conscious mind to the adVer
Using well the general make this better
medium for our advertisers We give them for their money
because give them your will
And through every subscriber have will be-
reading his advertising consciously day by fear For
this is another psychological law.

Dear Mother,
Your good letter of Feb. 9Th was
received last Sunday while waiting
in the mess line for dinner and also
a good cheerful one from Walter,
which have already answered, and I
should have written you sooner but
this place has so little news that in
order to make a letter interesting it
would require long intervals between
writing for there are very few hap
penings in this part of the world
that would interest you people back
in old Highland.
When the mail is called off I am
always looking for the Recorder or
Pend Times but neither of them
find their way to the city of Neven-
abr. l love to read Aunt Mary's good
letters and the others that are al
ways interesting.
I want to get'back and sleep in the
paradise of my own home bed long
quiet sleep disturbed by no racket OF
bursting shells or gas bombs and I'M
disturbed by the rude call of the bu-
gler's reveille.
Well, I might say few things of
Nevenahr the town in which I live
1t is located on the Abr river, which
completes course of about a 100
kilometers, emptying into the Rhine.
AS have told you in previous let
ter that this is great Summer Res
ort, might say few words in re-
CARDS to it's history. About so yrs.
ago by mere chance, a German who
WED here then, was digging well,
near his house and suddenly he felt
his feet bathed in warm water which
was the cause of the discovery of the
Thermal Springs. In 1905 a second
hot bubbling spring was bored at
depth of $40 meters, Nevenahr thus
possessing at the present moment
mighty hot springs, the old Crosse
Sprudel (Great Hot Spring. which a.
lone supplies nearly 500 cubic met
ers of water daily and the Willibror-
dus hot spring which every day plac-,
es some 200 cubic meters of water at
our disposal and there are three
smaller springs. certainly feel

things about this country.

from anyone will be greatly appre-
ciated and will assure you prompt
reply. Best wishes to all.
